Still rocking 1.7 with absolutely no issues whatsoever. Appreciate all the time you've put into this. Been busy lately so i'm not keeping up on stuff around here but this rom is killer.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ctasich:
I just did. Under profile I see System ROM, Internal, SD Card, and SD Card (a2sd). It appears it's recognizing it. However, my apps are still in internal storage.

My immediate response to this was..."of course I don't wipe my external partition!" Then I thought about it and realized that I may have actually done just that by mistake. Good catch. This was my problem. Thanks for the help all!

One last question though, I've read swap was enabled on Mason RC4. This rom has RC4. Will enabling swap be effective? I notice everyone keeps suggesting to zero it out. Is there a reason for this or do people not realize swap is enabled?
[EVO 4G Android Development] HTCEvoHaxx:
I definitely want the first one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dcharleyultra:
Run a2sd install from the terminal emulator to see if that solves the problem.

I think people did not realize it. I plan to set it to 512mb whenever I re-partition my card.
[EVO 4G Android Development] HipKat:
Swap works. I've had a 512 swap partition on here all along, so it was easy to enable
[EVO 4G Android Development] cityneversleepz:
sorry, been away most of the time since this post. Yes, You should download vipermod. It is a flashable zip. then You go to your terminal app, su, for super user permission. type vipermod. It will open up the vipermod user friendly screen. From there it is easy, I think you select option two, for undervolt. Then it asks by how much and I believe to drop 25 volts on everything is option one. My phone is still running great. Just a couple of very minor hiccups. Had two random reboots, but I was clicking on too many things at once and it looked like a soft reboot to me, not the full reboot. Came right back on. That is it. I'm getting around 14 or 15 hours on the battery right now with moderate usage.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SuperiorEVOlution18:
Hey I've wondered what does having a swap partition actually do? what benefits are there and any drawbacks?
[EVO 4G Android Development] docnas:
I am getting random soft reboots whenever i play with my phone a little too much. By soft reboots i mean it goes back to that android boot screen not a full reboot. Can this be due to undervolting ? I ask because it happened in multiple programs like in the browser while going thru my gallery etc etc. So i feel that its not program specific more like load specific.

BTW running 1.75 with viperomod undervolted by 100mv , While using sense i was using the agressive lionfish kernel which undervoilts by 150mv without issue hence why i undervolted so much.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sirlinux03:
5 second in google :confused:

Swap is an extension of you memory (RAM). If you don't have enough space in the RAM to run a program, Android will save a part of the data in the RAM onto the swap partition of your SD-card to free up space. Otherwise, (if you don't have a file or partition to swap to) android must terminate some background processes to free up space.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cityneversleepz:
I tried to undervolt by 50 but things didn't seem stable on 1.6 so I increased the volts (down just 25) and the stability returned. I am not experienced enough to know if this even had anything to do with it or not, but that is what appeared to happen. Now on 1.7, I'm undervolting by 25 and 99 percent of the time everything is perfect. Just two soft reboots in about three days.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SuperiorEVOlution18:
Hey thanks for that. So I see a lot of people say to set it to 0. Is there a reason for this? having more RAM would be a good thing right? Anyone recommend using Swap?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sy224048:
it would drastically lower your SD card's health for one. It would also kind of take up alot of processing power to constantly move things.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sirlinux03:
I'm going to answer your question, but remember this is not a tutorial thread for this. Any question other than the ROM functionality questions are out of place.

SWAP partition works well with class 6+ sd cards. That been said If you select "0" is like not to have swap. Is recommended cuz the majority of us (i think) have 5- class sd cards.

Lets try to use the forum the way is intended for. If you have any question other than the ROM questions, please ask those questions on the general questions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ReppinTheSouth:
Add 25mv to give you a total undervolt of 75mv. That should solve it. If not, keep adding in increments of 25.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cityneversleepz:
Well, one more thing that really helped 1.7 is zepplinrocks 3g supercharger and wifi afterburner. I'm noticing a significant increase in speed on top of an already very fast rom. I don't really know how this gets much better, but I'm sure those are the questions that keeps Mazda up at night. I worked my way down from the fastest settings for 3g all the way down to the second fastest in the supercharger menu. That would be #2 called fast, I think. For me the higher settings hurt the rom's speed. I tested it on a few different apps including Youtube. I saw real difference. Also, the Wifi Afterburner - setting #7 helped speed up my Wifi. Again, It was fast enough already, but I must play and I notice everything loading much faster. Only thing with the wifi afterburner, I did have to reboot a couple of times to get it to take. I was just about to remove it, but after two reboots, it started to kick in.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SuperiorEVOlution18:
Thanks for the information, sorry all for taking it off topic I've been posting here for a while (well since the thread started) and dont normally post off topic and have seen some off topic banter before so I assumed itd be ok lol sorry was just being lazy really. But again thanks for answering the question as well as telling me how it is instead of just telling me get the hell outta here hahahahahahaha

Also Looking forward to the update Mazda bouncing between this and decks but im missing ics right now lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] sirlinux03:
No problem, we are here to help each other.

Seems like mazda is a little busy putting together the new Team Dirt ROM. I don't think this ROM is going to get an update Today, but certainly we are getting another master piece from the Dirt!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] HTCEvoHaxx:
USB Debugging

Does USB debugging work on this rom? I tried it and it says it's on but when I go to ADB and try to remount it says: operation not permitted

Any suggestions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sirlinux03:
it works, Did you have it enabled?
[EVO 4G Android Development] HTCEvoHaxx:

Thanks guys for sticking with me and Team D.I.R.T!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] HTCEvoHaxx:
I don't want to be pushy but by any chance can you make a Non A2SD version?

Also, this is one of the best roms I've ever used. Thanks for putting all your hard work into it!

[EVO 4G Android Development] Solicitous:
Alright I will give it a shot. At this stage, my battery drastically drops when it's sleeping
[EVO 4G Android Development] j0ckinjz:
Worst comes to worst, just back up your sd card and make a small partition to work with a2sd and you don't even have to use it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] docnas:
Ok I played with vipermod some more and reloaded the origional kernel settings so as to start afresh. After rebooting I again undervolted by 100mv BUT to give it a little wiggle room I then increased the max voltage by 25mv. So this gave me the following key values @384MHZ voltage @ min=800 max=850

@998 voltage @min=1050 max=1150

I played with it a little and it seemed to be running well. Still i then ran the app stability test and ran the scaling stability test. If you havent used it it basically goes thru your frequency's and stresses it at them. it ran for 18 minutes before it froze. Again on rebooting i noticed that it froze while running at 998 mhz so this leads me to think the culprit voltage is at the higher end of the spectrum(as my max clock is 998) so i went back to vipermod and selected the cutom voltages and customized the 998 voltages by increase the min and max by 25mv so @998 min=1075 max=1175 .Im running the stability test now so far its been 26 minutes and no errors or freezes. Heres hoping i found and fixed the issue of why i keep getting those random soft reboots.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sy224048:
Hey Mazda just a note but I suggest that on all future versions of this rom you pre edit the android.policy.jar for ics recent apps and you can just make a flash able zip that only messes with key layout files. I'm pretty sure the android.policy.jar edits don't affect anything unless you use the search recent mod.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dcmasta:
Well Maz called it a Night on the Paranoid Android thread. So we'll be waiting another night for this update. I'm sure i'll survive another night.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ReppinTheSouth:
You may have to increase both your min and max voltages. It sounds like it's running much better though with the changes you made.
[EVO 4G Android Development] WildSioux:
I'm looking forward to this update. I'm trying paranoid out in the mean time.

I'm on 1.6 bcuz I can't get 1.7 and 1.7.5 to boot consistently but I notice if I reboot with the charger plugged in ac/usb that it gets stuck on the splash screen. If I unplug and reboot it boots up successfully though on 1.6 I havent tried on the others though.

You can follow the directions there to take the a2sd version and make it non-a2sd. I tried it with the 1.7 build and it seemed to work fine as I have not partitioned my card and the rom and my apps seem to be working fine.

FYI, latest and greatest when it comes to Radios is not always BEST :) I would mess around with the Radios and your PRL until you get a good combo that works for you in your area because while a Radio may work AWESOME for person 1, it maybe horrible for Person 2.........just a thought :)

question about radios, prl, nv

Hi all,

I've had my evo for a little something close to 3 years. Most of that time i've been in the Los Angeles area and get full bars pretty much everywhere. I recently moved out of state for a few months to a sprint dead zone and was using a microcell. Just came back to the LA area a few weeks ago and my signal strength has been pretty poor compared to what I used to get.

Sitting at my pc I've got 1 bar of signal. Going outside it'll usually go up to 3.

I haven't updated my radio, prl, NV, wimax or hboot. Currently using 2.15.00.11.19, which i guess is the radio (says baseband version) and it looks like that's a few versions behind. Although the numbering scheme for the radio's is a bit confusion since it seems to go from .11.19 to .04.08, .05.02, .08.08 - not sure how .08 is newer then .11

My hboot appears to be 0.97. Not sure how to check pri or nv version - or even what pri or nv is.

Anyhow, is it worth trying to update the radio or pri or nv? Any chance of mucking up the phone or can i just update the phone with the the current version if a newer one messes something up?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sirlinux03:
this question is way out of place. You should ask it in the EVO 4g general questions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sha4000:
Thx I was sure that I saw someone else post that also. Now I'm wondering if I was plugged in when rebooting 1.7 and 1.7.5? I got both of them to boot at one time or another but both would freeze whenever I rebooted and 9 times out of 10, I was sitting at the computer with the USB plugged in four transferring files.
[EVO 4G Android Development] volk9029:
Don't update hboot, you're fine. For the rest, here is the link to latest radio. Just remember to be on sense rom, to be able update profile and prl after flash.

[EVO 4G Android Development] dcmasta:
Here is what you do:

Perform a nandroid backup of this rom.

Flash a Sense ROM (any will do)

Flash the radio zip you have

Boot into the new rom

Update the PRL then Update the Profile.

Wipe again

Restore your Nandroid backup of this rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] merkk:
wow - quite the the process just to update this. Can i just flash the radio? Or should I do prl and profile as well? What do those two do anyhow?

Thanks for the instructions
[EVO 4G Android Development] dcmasta:
PRL= Preferred roaming list

Quoted from Wiki: On many networks, regularly updating the PRL is advised if the subscriber uses the device outside the home area frequently

Profile = "Refreshing" your connection to sprint. Essentially just reconnects you to sprints end to update your locale and various information.

If I'm wrong please someone correct me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SuperiorEVOlution18:
Found the same from Google and aiki( love those sites) as well as a guy from Sprint who dabbles in the root as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] merkk:
So sounds like I could probably just update the radio as I'm pretty much never outside of sprint's area.

Thanks for the info - I did try searching for it myself, but I made a mistake. I thought it was pri - didn't realize it was an L and not an i

Ok, I'll do it that way then. Actually, you are right - it's not that much work since I think i have a nandroid of MikG's rom that i can just restore to update the profile. ;)

[EVO 4G Android Development] merkk:
fyi - in case anyone is curious - updated everything, didn't seem to have any effect on the signal. I'll have to test the signal with my friends unrooted evo and see if there's a difference. Maybe sprint did something with their signal strength since the last time I was in LA ;p
[EVO 4G Android Development] chrisliphart:
When you were running a sense ROM, did you notice a boost in signal bars? I seem to remember someone saying that HTC bases their signal bars on voice service, while AOSP, AOKP, CM9, etc show signal bars based on data service. That would show lower signal most of the time. If I'm wrong on this, someone please correct me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] merkk:
nope - got about the same number of bars on the sense rom as well. A friend of mine has an unrooted stock evo. When he comes over later I'll see what kind of signal he gets. Maybe there's just something glitchy with my phones internal antenna or something.
