In case you aren't aware, we're not supposed to discuss or even mention that kernel on XDA, so you should consider another method to let other users know about that alternative. Continuing to discuss that kernel explicitly here can result in infractions from the mods.

Just trying to be helpful to you and anyone else that might not be aware of that XDA policy.

Edit: I've searched and haven't been able to find an official statement about this policy anywhere on XDA, but one of the mods (Papa Smurf151) made this post in another thread. If you want any more detail it would be best to PM him.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
And I'm not trying to play mod, just wanted to make sure you are aware of the policy, especially since it doesn't seem to be documented anywhere.

BTW, there is a thread for a kernel called "unnamed" here on XDA, so "unmentionable" might be a better adjective to describe the other one. :)

Thanks All!

This is the first ROM that I could get the Wifi Tether app to work. I'm not sure if it's because its "non-sense", but it works. I tried at least 3 roms before I found this one. I really needed the tether because I got a Nexus 7. The sprint hotspot was OK, but couldn't get 4g. Now I have 4g and it's actually superfast on the Nexus.

It also happens to be the best looking rom. Looks just like jellybean on my nexus.

Anyone using the wifi tether app with this make sure to set to "generic ics" profile and check MMS clamping and routing fix to on (i.e. the check mark is showing).

Been running SOS 2.6 since it posted and I just wanted to mention my battery life has been awesome. Running apex on default kernel. Lovin this rom. And the JB kb is a nice add.

Got a boot loop

Hey guys,

So I just installed the new 2.6.1 a couple days ago and it's been running fine for the most part. Had a couple random reboots by itself. Then today it reboots and gets stuck in a boot loop. Nothing I could do to get android back up and running. Tried clearing the cache and dalvik, still nothing. Only thing I could do was to restore a nand backup that I made months ago. I know I could have tried reinstalling the ROM but I didn't have one on my sd card and couldn't download one at the time. Plus, I was on a 2 and a half hr drive outta town, to make things worse.

Just seeing if anyone else has had similar experiences.
[HTC EVO 3D] swagstr:
If you're coming from 2.4.5 or lower, a full wipe is recommended for your upgrade.
[HTC EVO 3D] Raul027:
I've been running the latest since it came out and this has been an amazing ROM. Thanks swagstr for such a nice ROM.
[HTC EVO 3D] Targitai:
Hey guys, can somebody explain me, what did i wrong?

I have h-boot 1.58 s-off. Use 4ext recovery, did wipe cash + dalvik, then format all partitions.

And trying to install SOS M. But it stop at 15% and says "optimising system partition". I was waiting about 15 minutes and nothing.
[HTC EVO 3D] Neogenx:
Does take a long while
[HTC EVO 3D] DarqAnshin:
Stupid question, but did you unplug the data/power cable? Also did you do a full wipe (The option provided by SOS Rom)?
[HTC EVO 3D] Targitai:
Yes, i did it. Also i tried didn't full wipe and different options. Same result.

Neogenx, how much longer do you think? About hour? :eek:
[HTC EVO 3D] black2rob:
This Rom kicks a$$ I love it best Rom I've tried so far no problems at all...
[HTC EVO 3D] evolone:
Hands down the best Evo 3D rom I've come across, absolutely zero complaints as everything is working (as far as I can tell) and working very smoothly to boot. Plays very very well the kernel that we aren't supposed to talk about here.

Excellent fking work!

This rom has made my phone usable. I actually want to use it for notes, calendar, web blah blah blah and so on. I only ever used my phone for text, gps and games when stuck on the shtter.

Also hint for others, apparently this can be done on any rom but especially like it on this one is changing the lcd density from 240 to 192 ...makes the phone damn perfect by shrinking text/onscreen menus etc which to me give a better look and more screen real estate [buildprop ro.sf.lcd_density=240 -> 192 ...but don't follow my lead without proper instructions otherwise you could mess things up]
[HTC EVO 3D] mexigga:
Swagstr, absolutely love this Rom. Still love meanrom, so this is best of both worlds for me. Only thing I miss and I may be the only one in the world is the weather animations/app on the home. Screen. If its possible to get that back, great, if not I am good. Again thanks man!
[HTC EVO 3D] foshozee:
I second that. What do I need to do to get the weather to work on sense clock in home screen? Thanks forbyhe great Rom
[HTC EVO 3D] efan3719:
Just a heads up. I went to the download link page and chrome said there is malware detected. probably nothing but just thought you should know. maybe an ad or something.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Unfortunately, it's not nothing. :(

That was discussed extensively in this thread back in early September and it turned out to be malware in the Jelly Bean status bar mod. Shortly after that was determined swagstr, the OP for this thread, said he was going to clean it up but maybe he hasn't done that yet.

I strongly recommend against installing the Jelly Bean status bar mod until that has been addressed.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] efan3719:
oh yeah i remember that. but i think this has something to do with the actual site not the rom.

"Of the 6 pages we tested on the site over the past 90 days, 1 page(s) resulted in malicious software being downloaded and installed without user consent. The last time Google visited this site was on 2012-09-25, and the last time suspicious content was found on this site was on 2012-09-25.

[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
OK, that might be something different then.

I guess we will need swagstr to confirm that he has cleaned up the .zip file for 2.6.1 and comment on the warnings you are getting from Chrome.

I can't seem to find a way to change the default browser. I have looked for App Associations settings and don't see any.

I'd like to set Chrome as my default browser, if this is possible how can it be done with this rom?
[HTC EVO 3D] jared407:
It just sits on the HTC white screen for 5 mins and does not do anything. Did full wipe and super wipe install succeeded but wont pass the HTC white screen.

Anyone running Nova launcher? Whenever I try to change the wallpaper, the box that appears is the wrong size and I can't use my 540x960 formatted wallpapers.

Anyone else notice this or know how to resolve???
[HTC EVO 3D] shizkoff777:
Use pwall off the market. It works for me
[HTC EVO 3D] efan3719:
yeah i encountered that problem as well. i have maxathon and chrome but sometimes it doesnt ask which browser to use and just uses maxathon. not entirely sure on a fix.
[HTC EVO 3D] dimqs153:
To set default alternative browse :

- install ur alternative browser

- wait until install is finished.

- go to "Apps" in "Setting"(rom setting)

- select "All" tabs

- find "Internet"

- scroll down n find "Clear Default"

Mine is cleared

- go get some link

Hope it helps
[HTC EVO 3D] efan3719:
i did that and it worked for a bit but then started doing the same thing again. hrm...:confused:
[HTC EVO 3D] evolone:
Sweet, thanks. I knew I was missing something

...efan3719, i'm going to keep an eye out to see if it defaults to a different browser again, if it does maybe there's a bug that can be looked into. I'll post back later if I see it switch back without interaction like you saw.
[HTC EVO 3D] efan3719:
ok cool. thank you. i'll do some poking around and see if i can figure anything out on my end.
[HTC EVO 3D] rootlinux:
Missing Swag on my LTE. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] dimqs153:
If still cant set alternative default browser

Try change htclinkyfydispatch.apk from another rom
[HTC EVO 3D] jac6695:
Yeah that fix didn't stick for me either. Is this a small bug in the ROM? Otherwise a very smooth, solid, dependable ROM. Really like it, and it has made me forgo my upgrade last month and stick with the 3D for another year or so. None of the new phones (except maybe the Galaxy S3) gets me excited. This one has decent hardware still, and with a ROM like this it just works. Thanks for the work on this!

3G speed

First, thanks for your hard work. Great ROM. I've loitered around here for quite some time but first time posting a question. I've read and searched the thread but can't seem to find a solution.

I either don't get 3g connection (reverts to 1x) or it says 3g and it's so slow it is useless. Anyone have a suggestion? Did I miss something/screw something up?

Again, I appreciate the work and always felt I should work with what we get instead of asking for more, but in this case, I like the ROM but need the data speeds back up.

thx
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
The stock Sprint Rom shows 3g even if you are connected at 1x. This Rom (since it's based on MeanRom) has been fixed to show the true connection speed. Having said that, I think it's a Sprint issue. Around here, 3g is almost unusable due to the large number of people and lack of towers.

Posted with Tapatalk 2
[HTC EVO 3D] a0323022:
:) Thanks for the quick response. Faster than 3G actually. So, not sure if this is good or bad (might have been better off not knowing.) Now I know I've been getting crap speed all along.

Anyone else having issues with Nova Prime not showing unread phone, SMS, & email counts (gmail works)? I figure it's an issue with sense, but I took advantage of the $0.25 sale...
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
I'm using Nova Prime (from the sale too) and the unread for phone, SMS, and Gmail all work for me (didn't have a new unread email one). So, no I personally am not having issues. I'm assuming you downloaded the addon since you said gmail works and have it activated for all the apps. I selected the AOSP phone app and the sense messaging app from the aroma installer.
[HTC EVO 3D] trentonite:
I'm experiencing the same thing, Gmail works fine but that's about it. However I'm using a different rom. I just stop by every now and then and hope something gets updated here lol
[HTC EVO 3D] PyroJing:
Can someone help me out. I'm trying to flash the AOSP SB theme using TWRP and it says it flashed successfully and I clear the cache and I'm still stuck with the regular Sense status bar. What's going wrong?

Also is it just me or can you not log into the HTC Watch app?
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
I don't know about flashing a theme, but you can select the aosp status bar during the ROM install. So, I'd flash the ROM again and select it there.
[HTC EVO 3D] trentonite:
i know it has been a while and has likely been cleaned up since then, but did swag ever get the virus cleaned out of the JB status bar? also, has the default browser not sticking been addressed yet?
[HTC EVO 3D] kwheaties:
pwall? I don't see that in the market...
[HTC EVO 3D] PyroJing:
Yeah, but then don't you lose the quick settings?
[HTC EVO 3D] shizkoff777:
I'm sorry its personal wallpaper
[HTC EVO 3D] swagstr:
I assure you I have my developer looking into these issues. As far as the malicious software, or virus, is it in the jelly bean flashable theme or in the jb statusbar app? If you guys say it's in the app I would like to ask the developer himself about this. Also, what software was used to verify this?
[HTC EVO 3D] mkokotovich:
Lock screen behavior

I enabled lock screen security (currently using pattern). I expected the pattern lock screen to be my only lock screen, but I still have to swipe to get past one lock screen, then enter my pattern to get past another. So I need to unlock my phone twice.

I tried re-flashing the ROM using the HTC lock screen, but after the restart it seemed like there was no lock screen installed, or something. It would just sit at a black screen, except I could see the status bar across the top. Nothing I would do would get any feedback from the phone, though. It's like it was locked but had no lockscreen to unlock it. I tried re-flashing again, and the same thing happened. I finally re-flashed the AOSP lock screen, and now I'm back to my default behavior - unlocking my phone twice every time I use it (every phone call, every text, every time I want to check the weather, etc).

My two questions are:

1) Is having to unlock the phone twice (swipe first, then pattern) the behavior everyone is seeing on this ROM?

2) Is there a way to only have to enter my pattern?

Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
The malware is in the jbstatusbar.apk. If you go back and read through this thread starting on this page, you will see the methods that were used to identifiy the malware. It was originally ESET AV that found it on a download, then multiple scanners found it when the jbstatusbar.apk was uploaded to an online scanning site, and it was identified again when FSecure's Java based tool scanned the entire ROM .zip file.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] mkokotovich:
Made some progress. I flashed the HTC lockscreen again, but disabled pattern lock first. Then when I was stuck at the black screen, I could pull down on the notification bar, go to settings, click personalize, lock screen, select the default HTC lock screen, then click apply. Then everything started working correctly, using the HTC lock screen.

However, it still makes me swipe to unlock, then enter my pattern to unlock again.

Is anyone using a pattern or PIN with their lockscreen? Do you have to unlock twice?
[HTC EVO 3D] swagstr:
My goal is to get an update out soon to smooth out the ROM and remove the malware. Thanks for sticking with us through this!
[HTC EVO 3D] swagstr:
Got it. It will be taken care of. I'm checking the default app issue as well. So far I was able to switch my default browser to boost browser but it has not switched back to the stock one yet. I will keep checking.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
Yes, but the aosp status bar has many of the same toggles. I also like the notification bar toggle in widgetsoid (see the screenshot). You can put up to 10 toggles on it of your choosing.
[HTC EVO 3D] kwheaties:
Awesome, any other goodies planned???
[HTC EVO 3D] efan3719:
Does the 4G toggle there actually work? Most I've seen either don't work or just send you to the data settings menu.
[HTC EVO 3D] black2rob:
This Rom is the best Rom that i have used. No issues at all no FC fast and stable....:D
[HTC EVO 3D] efan3719:
the issue i'm having with this is that i have two browsers installed. chrome and maxathon. i use maxathon for flash video. i dont have any default browser set but the option only pops up half the time. it just randomly defaults to one or the other. i've tried clearing my defaults/data but it still does it from time to time.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
Yes it works. You press it and nothing happens for a few seconds. Then the 4g in the toggle lights up and a few seconds later, 3g disappears from the status bar. That's how you know 4g is active since there is no 4g indicator.
[HTC EVO 3D] kwheaties:
Everything working & great battery life. Here's my latest setup....

Edit: Just realized my calendar reminders aren't working (AOSP). If I turn notifications off , then on, all of a sudden all my previous reminders appear, but that's it. So odd!!
[HTC EVO 3D] efan3719:
Sweet. I'll have to check that out. Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] gonk24:
Anyone know how to disable the quiet ring on pick up feature?
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
Not currently running the ROM, so I'm trying to remember. I want to say it's somewhere under sounds in the settings.

Yeah settings>sound>heading "Incoming Calls" uncheck quiet ring on pickup. That is in the Sense settings.

Is everyone able to receive MMS using AOSP app? I get a download button, but it just hangs saying "downloading" and never shows up...
[HTC EVO 3D] efan3719:
the AOSP sms app can't do MMS on our network. you'll have to use a third party app for MMS handling.
[HTC EVO 3D] loveVII:
I can't get MMS working. Tried installing Go SMS Pro. Still nothing.
[HTC EVO 3D] swagstr:
Install the HTC MMS.
[HTC EVO 3D] loveVII:
How? Is that in the market? I kind of figured that's what I needed to do, but I looked everywhere on the root and I can't find it.
[HTC EVO 3D] icon69:
There's an option in the aroma installer to install HTC mms.

TrashWang
[HTC EVO 3D] loveVII:
And I selected that when I installed it...

Which is the main reason I'm confused...

Should I try to re-install the ROM?

Or is there some other way to get the MMS working?
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
You could reinstall the ROM and select it there. If I remember right, aroma has an option to put a flashable zip in the SOS folder of the SD card.
[HTC EVO 3D] loveVII:
Wiped. Installed ROM again and made sure I chose the correct MMS apk. Booted up. Still no MMS receiving.

3G works fine for internet.

I put the HTC MMS.apk on SD when I reinstalled... Flashed it... Still nothing.

Again, I've tried everything I know how to try. Go SMS doesn't work. Regular messaging app doesn't work. I'm all out of ideas.
[HTC EVO 3D] kwheaties:
Alright, back to HTC apps for me. Finally got a MMS to download using aosp, but after it was resent (2 showed up). My exchange aosp email all of sudden stopped syncing giving me security errors and the calendar invite reminders never got fixed.

No worries, just good to know to keep all HTC apps when're possible...
[HTC EVO 3D] gonk24:
I chose aosp settings when installing, which is what I want. Guess I'm screwed

Edit: Got it done. Switched out the aosp settings.apk for the Sense version. Unchecked the quiet on ring option then went back to aosp settings. Used the fast reboot app between switching apk files. All is well

Just unlocked last night and flashed this ROM since I wanted something "non-sense" However, I can not turn on my WiFi it just gives me an error. It looks like my kernel is 3.0.16-g294f767 which does not seem right. Any help would be great!
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
That's the stock kernel from the Sprint ICS 2.89.651.2 build. Try flashing the attached VM leak kernel and I think that should fix it.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] kangy:
Thanks! I'll probably give it a another shot this weekend. I flashed back to a Stock ICS Rooted Deodex ROM and just removed all of the Sprint/junk I didn't want and am using Nova for the launcher (still have the sense in the background though). This is a work phone so I had to have it up and running before leaving and spent all night unlocking/rooting/flashing and ran out of time. From the half hour or so I played with this ROM though it was great! I'll report back when I have some downtime to flash SOS M back with that new kernel.

Here is what I'm thinking (I'm a noob) could you confirm these steps? I'm currently in HBOOT 1.58 S-ON (don't feel like doing the wire trick right now) with ext4 Recovery.

1) Flash superwipe

2) Install SOS M with selected options (mostly AOSP unless I need the function from the Sense counterpart such as MMS)

3) Flash VM leak kernel

I thought though from the instructions that the Aroma would install the 2.17 kernel? Last night I did the HTC Dev Unlock, flashed ext4 recovery, and flashed Supersu then did a full wipe and full install of SOS M, shouldn't of that put on the 2.17 kernel? I'm just confused on how I still ended up with the 2.89?
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
It sounds like maybe the 4EXT SmartFlash option didn't get set and if the SOS M default kernel, which is the VM leak version, didn't flash you would be left with the stock 2.89 kernel and a mismatch with the Wi-Fi drivers. That is probably what happened. You can't update the boot partition (wipe or flash) in recovery unless are S-OFF or you start recovery with a fastboot command, which is why 4EXT implemented SmartFlash.

Go into the 4EXT settings in the Updater/Recovery app and press the "Recovery" tab. Make sure the "S-ON: 4EXT SmartFlash" option is checked. If it's setup properly, your phone will boot twice whenever you change kernels. The first boot will be to flash the boot partition (kernel) and the second will be to boot the new ROM configuration.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] kangy:
Thanks for the swift responses. I thought I had the SmartFlash enabled but it is likely I could of overlooked it. I know this isn't a ROM specific question but figured I'd ask while here and it does have to do with flashing the SOS M. Nandroid (I'm about to google it also to try and teach myself what exactly it does). The biggest pain for me is setting up all of my apps again, while most apps install back down from the play store and have backup files saved on SD it is still a time consuming process getting "set back up". I am semi-OCD with my layout, folders, etc. Nandroid backs up everything correct? Basically what I would love to have is a user file only backup that I could do now on my current ROM, flash SOS-M and restore the backup to replace my apps, home screens, account settings, etc. etc. Is that something I could do with Nandroid, if so I will probably try flashing the SOS M again soon. It's just such a pain to setup all of my accounts and restore databases, etc.
[HTC EVO 3D] black2rob:
Ok ive been using this rom for a while now and ive niticed that on my 4g i have to put it in airplane mode power off reboot take airplane mode off start 4g and sometimes it turns on.......when i get 4g to work, it works perfect....not sure if anyone else is having the same problem.........sometimes it works when i do those steps other times is hit or miss for 4g to turn on........

Why is OTA update for SOS M telling me to update to 2.6.1 when I am already using 2.6.1? :confused::silly:

Maybe they got the update out that swagstr described in this post, but I'm only guessing.

I've had that update pop up a few times over the past 2-3 weeks, even though I'm on 2.6.1. I figured it's just a bug.

Yes It does look like a bug. I tried to install it for the heck of it and it tries to reinstall the same version I already have. I tried the upgrade and it doesnt recognize it as an upgradable rom.
