ROM Update

Okay Nippon users!

Update 0.9 has been released for public use/testing.

The OP has the links to the download​

A fair few changes, the most significant of which is a number of tweaks have been removed from the init.d folder and added into the RAMdisk.

Thanks to Jamieg71 for his rousing words and advice, Ropodope for his CoD values, and PapaSmurf151 for his SmurfedOut script and further words of advice. All much appreciated.

Now I hope all this makes for a smoother user experience. Please report back. It should be a marked improvement from the previous version. If you think not, I'm sorry.

Sorry for the zip size, tis a bit hefty! Recommend the following for flashing this update:

Full format (system, data, and boot)

Flash and go through Aroma options.

Wipe cache and dalvik for safe measures

Reboot

Now the reboot will take some time, it will hang at the splash for around 5mins, maybe longer.

Let it do its thing.

You may also notice the screen black out! Don't worry it will go to the bootanimation and load as normal.

Here you go Rob.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Digitalkarma:
woot woot! way to go Rob! :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] igorsway:
Nice update. The installer is very slick. The customization options are great -- especially being able to get rid of Facebook
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
Glad you like the setup. Without FB you won't be able to sync contacts pictures though just remember. I might make a little aroma zip of all the opt choices without the system for people to flash any changes they want...maybe!

Once booted give it an hour or so to settle. Let me know how things go :)

Loving Slick Aroma

Thanks Robobob1221! The ROM runs much more smoother:cowboy:

And for AgentTabasco, maybe are you having trouble with the au-one market?

The au market is known to detect the package name of the ChainsDD's superuser app, and to deny the access. It seems to be a protection from pirating because the rooted users can copy the paid apps.

You can get the market working by deleting the ChainsDD's superuser from your ROM, then install the chainfire's SuperSu app. Au market wont detect the SuperSu, at least for now :p

Another way is to rename the package name of the ChainsDD's Superuser app by modifying the files in the .apk. It's an an uphill task, and if the app is updated you have to do it again so I don't reccomend it.

------------------------EDIT----------------------------

I Posted How to Use au Market
[EVO 4G Android Development] ajo4788@gmail.com:
No SMS for me 3g will be up as soon as I send a message data goes out and I get a failure to send I love the rom tho great theme and colors any possibility that u would have a zip file for that cause i want this rom bad lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
I'm glad to hear its running smoother. I'd made one glaring error, and removing that fixed most of the lag issues. I hope the other tweaks will improve the overall smoothness over time; We'll see. Thanks for the feedback and thanks for the heads up on SuperSU. I don't use the au one market but that will be of use for others! :highfive:

Hey, thanks for checking this out. Yeah sorry about SMS, but this is a ROM for KDDI au users in Japan and it has a few framework differences which makes it incompatible with Sprint services such as messaging. Also the software version is different so I haven't got any flashables that would be compatible with with 4.67 or 5.07 ROMs.

What options did you choose in the Aroma installer?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ajo4788@gmail.com:
All because i thought i left out an important system file and thats why my sms wasnt working.

Other than that tho every other things work very well its fast feels stable as all hell just sms such a shame i would make this my daily driver right away!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
I'm glad to hear it sounds as if its finally stable as I FUBAR'd it with my previous releases!Took me a while to notice! Lessons learnt.

Give me some time and I might be able to work on something for Sprint users...I have said this several times though:eek:!
[EVO 4G Android Development] migjr415:
+1 for Sprint users. This is a great Rom, very different and unique. I've put it on my phone a few times just cause I love the look and feel of this Rom. This would with no doubt be my daily driver if you got sms to work for us Sprint users.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
Oki Doke. I just asked Captain Throwback to use his ROM as a base, and he said okay:good:.

Give me some time to work on it and I will try and serve you up something worthwhile ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] migjr415:
GREAT!!! I can't wait, Thank you!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] HipKat:
There's an app called Facebook Contact Sync that will sync your FB contacts without having to install the FB App. I use it after every new ROM flash and I haven't had FB on my phone in months

I've noticed that the CPU score of the Quadrant benchmark of this ROM is extremely low.

This can be improved by enabling the Dalvik JIT by A2SDGUI. It wont really affect other apps and benchmarks like the Antutu. Hope this helps people who want to show off higher Quadrant scores:D

Ok. Seems not many people have noticed or commented here.

I seem to have removed the Rosie.apk from the opt folder :o. Pretty stupid of me.

I replaced it and uploading the amended zip.

Sorry.

Issues

Not sure what is going on, but I have been playing with this new update for a while now and I am having some issues. I have tried many different ways of setting it up but keep getting similar conclusions. The busybox always gives me an error when trying to install it and says this rom cannot install to. Additionally, after having the rom setup when I reboot the phone normally it always sits at Au Kddi screen and never loads.

I have superwiped and also wiped SD well and still have same thing happening... any ideas? Sorry I do not have a catlog... but I will play with the new version released today and see what happens. I will try and save a catlog for you .
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
1.20.2 won't install on this rom. only upto 1.20.

Each boot will take about 5minutes as I've included a process which takes a bit of time. Give it time to finish up, maybe even 10-15minutes
[EVO 4G Android Development] naoroot:
Try the Busybox app by Stephen(Stericson). It can install the 1.20.2 perfectly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] AgentTabasco:
ok

Ok thanks! btw... I have been trying like crazy to do the SuperSu stuff you mentioned earlier in post and get the au market stuff to work, but it still doesnt work.

I installed SuperSu, removed superuser using rom manager and still even when I install au market SuperSu never even sees it. That is the reason i think it gives me an error when I load the market. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
Did you update the binaries?

Sent from my MZ604
[EVO 4G Android Development] AgentTabasco:
lol... of course I did Rob. I have also tried uninstalling and re-installing au market several times and still when I re-install it doesnt ask SuperSu for permission. Why?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
It shouldn't be asking for permission.

The problem with Super User is that its apk name (com.noshufuu something like that), is recognised by the market application as a root program, and as such blocks access for fear of people pirating paid apps, as naoroot I think mentioned. SuperSu has a different name thus shouldn't prevent access to the market, unless of course au updated their own database to include the new Super user.

Once installed you just need to open the market. Is it still giving the error message?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SharpIS03:
Great job on the latest version! Works great. I'm still getting force closes on my status bar. Anyone else experiencing this? Especially when I'm taking the subway, the FCs happen more often. It seems like the error is happening when the data signal icon in the status bar changes (signal available -> no signal -> signal available), or perhaps the constant signal loss/availability is the culprit.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
It could well be a image error. Which systemui(status bar) you choose? I haven't experienced any lately with status bar with the skull battery image.

Could you send a logcat the next time it happens? use the catlog app to get it, and email it to me :)

How's the JPLT study going btw?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SharpIS03:
Hmmm using the the blue/orange one. Only get the error whenever there is a problem getting the 3g signal (on/off). I'll try and get you a logcat next time.

Going well, I hope. Focusing on different things every week. Couple weeks ago, went crazy on vocabulary. Last week, grammar. This week, kanji. Next week, hmm, listening/speaking. Second week of October I'll probably start focusing on the sample test book and go through specific grammar patterns.

Just curious, anyone thinking of getting other phones from au? HTC J is looking good, but if either the Galaxy S3 or the Note 2 come out, I may get them. iPhone 5 came out, but...meh.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
Hmm. I thought that one should be stable. Maybe try fixing permissions in recovery if you haven't already. And then clearing dalvik and cache. I remember getting that as well but not on that particular systemui.apk. You on v0.8 or v0.9.

Sounds like you got your hands full with all that studying.

The only thing I liked about the iPhone 5 was the two tone back. IOS is just boring.

I'm not that keen on the J. I've played with it a couple times. I'm considering jumping ship to docomo next year if au doesn't start getting better imports. Even the Japanese phones are mid level crap compared to ntt ones.

I thought the Eluga wasn't bad or the Sony t or x which ever it is!

[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
Google translate is awful for Japanese translation sometimes!! hahaha!!

You'll get on there someday:p! Like I say in my op, can't really take any credit for what I've done. Everything was out there, just a matter of learning how to make it all work together....which I've sort of managed to do.:silly:
[EVO 4G Android Development] SharpIS03:
I like the EX Contacts app, but is there a way to make it sort names based on Japanese reading, rather than Chinese? Are there any other contact apps out there that look good and sort by Japanese?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
I've not been able to find anything that does things for Japanese, and those that do are pretty mediocre. Bad searches by me perhaps. XdaF or naoroot might know something, else use the stock dialer.

HTC update 2.29.970.01

Hopefully, this isn't a dumbass question.

I received a notification last night that HTC update 2.29.970.01 is available for my phone. Has anyone else running Urayamashii 0.9 tried applying this update or know if it is compatible?

It's only 15.74MB, -- perhaps it updates the radio or some other firmware?

Thanks,
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
Don't apply it directly as it will most likely mess up your root access.

Did it say what was in it? I'll see if I can find some info.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
According to the au website the update contains the following:

Bug that receive duplicate e-mail as a C-disaster evacuation information is improved.

Here's the official au page with the d/l details

[EVO 4G Android Development] SharpIS03:
Right, just wondering. It is a nice contacts app, for sure. Thanks.

---------- Post added at 02:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:18 PM ----------

It'd be nice to find a solution to this. I really enjoy using some of the Sprint ROMs but my Japanese services (cmail/sms) don't work. It doesn't seem like anyone has figured out how to make a ROM that will work with a US and a Japanese handset...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
I guess you could contact the app developer and request additional translations.

---------- Post added at 02:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:18 PM ----------

The problem is that au has its own sms system, the framework contains additional telephony files (it has its own unique carrier folder for cmail), and it would require a lot of work to get it ported or removed. More hours and expertise than I have. Have you managed to get it so that carrier detail are switched to KDDI on those Sprint based ROMs? I got the Japanese market working on them by editing the build.prop but it still showed Sprint in the status bar and lock screen. I worry about incurring roaming charges:eek:....
[EVO 4G Android Development] SharpIS03:
Well, one thing's for sure, it makes me want to make my own contacts app, specifically to read and display Japanese names correctly :P haha but I have no time right now, so this'll do. I was just wondering since I remember trying to find such an app at the beginning of this year. I guess nothing has changed.

In regards to your second reply, that's pretty much what I figured, although I didn't get to take a deeper look at what was involved. After all my searching, I felt that if the other groups (Cyanogen, for example) couldn't get a ROM to work for both the US AND Japan EVOs, then perhaps it's quite a bit more difficult than I can imagine. I was able to change the carrier ID, though. I think you had to edit the build.prop, and there was one other file but I can't remember it now. I don't think you have to worry about roaming charges when using Sprint-based ROMs because our handsets detect our carrier signals just fine, just the build.prop and extra file needed to be edited and that was it.

Yeesh, take a break for about half a year or longer and such much stuff escapes my mind haha
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
I just sent you a pm about some of the stuff you just mentioned here. Its just au/KDDI I think that is incompatible, cos of the way their mms is set up, although I haven't taken a look at another other carriers roms, but from a website I found listing apn, only KDDI didn't have one.

Wondering if you knew the mms centre address for kddi?

See you've ordered the Nexus 7, is it direct from Google?

I needs a credit card!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] SharpIS03:
Just replied, no idea about the MMS address. I'll see if I can ask someone who I know works for KDDI...although he's really clueless about all this technological stuff.

Yes, ordered one for me and the gf, luckily she said she wants one as I'm doing this as a surprise for her. I ordered them last Wednesday and have been hitting F5 on Fedex's tracking site all day today, friggin' package is sitting in HK airport right now. I should receive them on Thursday at the latest. And yes, direct from Google, although I used a friend's CC :)

What would need to be edited so that au email notifications show up automatically? I always have to hit 'Mail Check" for it to check for any mail. Not a big deal since almost everyone I know is using Line these days. Anyone else having this little issue? Just moi?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
You mean the au app isn't automatically receiving mail for you on v0.9? It should be.

If not do the following.

Extract the kddi email apk

Using same archive manager open the apk and extract the lib folder

place the five lib files contained in the lib folder to /system/lib/ directory.

fix permissions if necessary then reboot

I fixed this in the last update with the updated version of the email apk as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SharpIS03:
Hmm I guess I was mistaken. It appears that I do receive emails automatically, but I don't get notified of receiving anything.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
Ok. Yeah I had this problem. Ok to solve this:

Back up data and app with Titanium back up.

Then uninstall and reinstall using TiB.

For some reason the sound files can get corrupted or something.

Or set an external music/sound file as a temp fix
[EVO 4G Android Development] SharpIS03:
Hello naoroot. I wanted to try this just to see if it would work, however, it did not. I installed SuperSU, let it update its binaries, then uninstalled Superuser, rebooted, and Market still doesn't work.

Is there anything I'm missing? Let me know, I really appreciate it. If there are more detailed instructions that you have, for example, starting from a fresh install of Urayamashii, that'd be great as well.

Cheers!
[EVO 4G Android Development] naoroot:
How to use the au market

Sorry to be late.This is the technical part

Yeah, I actually missed one thing. au Market detects Superuser.apk(com.noshufou.android.su) and also the default.prop

The default.prop of this ROM and any other xda's ROMs is like this.

This settings allow the root access by USB adb connection. You know, KDDI hates root users. So the au market detects this setting and denies the access.

To use the au market, you should change the default.prop values to the following one(it is the same as stock ROM).

The default.prop can't be modified easily after the ROM is flashed. The default.prop is packed within the boot.img .

Even if you edit the default.prop, It will be always restored from the boot.img when booting.

You need to unpack the boot.img,modify the default.prop within it, pack the boot.image again,then flash it to your ROM.

There are many tools to do that. Search "edit boot.img" and you should know the method.Maybe The easiest way is using the famous "dsixda's rom kitchen".

And this is the detailed instructions starting from a fresh install of Urayamashii.

!!This is WIP and dirty way. I will edit this post to better and easy method when I can.

1. With dsixda's ROM kitchen, unpack the Urayamashii ROM.

2. From the /opt folder, choose your favourite kernel and place that kernel's boot img to the root of your working folder. With the kitchen's option 20, unpack it and edit the default.prop. Then pack it again and move it back to the /opt/somekernel.

3. Build it and flash it.

4. Flash CWM-SuperSU096.zip.

5 Install auoneidsettings and aumarket.

BTW, au market spyes your activity :cool:

Anyone getting random reboots with the updated version of this rom? It has happened a few times now since I updated. It reboots and then sits at the splash screen indefinitely. I have to pull the battery and then it boots up fine after that and works great. It is doing it every 3 to 4 days.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
Yeah I noticed that as well, but only on the last week or so. How long has it been happening for you? I will see what I can do about it the next time it happens. I wiped cache and dalvik, fixed permissions and that has appeared to fix it, but I'll see if it happens again.

Have you been flashing other ROMs at all?

Could you tell me your set up in regards cpu range, scheduler and governor, and under/over volting if any?

How frequent were the reboots when they occurred?

[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
for cpu try the smartassv2 governor and maybe change the scheduler to SIO

for clock speeds try min 128 - max 768.

In recovery clear cache and dalvik as well.

jEvo rooting advice

Hello everyone, I just bought a jEvo and although I'm not at my first rooting experience, I'm still kind of a noob. Can you recommend me a rooting tutorial (preferably in English) that would get my jEvo to the point to be able to install this ROM. Thank you in advance !

[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
If you power off the phone, then hold volume down rocker + power you get into the bootloader.

Hello again, I strated the tutorial you recommended, but i run into some trouble from the start. I completed the first 3 steps:

adb push tacoroot.bin /data/local/

adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tacoroot.bin

adb shell /data/local/tacoroot.bin --setup **this will set up the phone for root and then boot into recovery**

After the 3rd step instead of rebooting into recovery the shell printed this error : "reboot: Operation not permitted" . Did you experience problems in with this ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Robobob1221:
Are you typing out all of that??

I think you should only type

adb shell /data/local/tacoroot.bin --setup
[EVO 4G Android Development] mix23:
This was just a copy paste. I used the command you mentioned here. I managed to pass that step by manually rebooting. For some reason it didn't reboot into recovery. Now will proceed with the rest of the procedure.
