[EVO 4G Android Development] shaglioni:
I know I was having issues with the 8-19 stable download so I actually had the 8-5 stable as well. I'm able to run that without issues. So if you're missing apps, try using a super wipe of some kind, there are many out there, then manually delete the cache and dalvik, re flash the rom and see what happens.

Also I was concerned with some of the advanced features not working and Meca let me know that in the OP it states that some of the features won't work.

As far as kernels, this is definitley not sense so AOSP kernels will work on this. I'm using Mason G on mine and works well.

I don't have all the answers but I do check this thread multiple times daily and if I can help in any way I'll put in what I experienced is all. Meca chimes in every now and then and still updates the downloads and hopefully there will be another stable in the works within the next couple of weeks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Navoj042175:
Do you have the link for the 8-05, I couldn't Find it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] v5HMeca:
Here are links to the old 8-5 releases.

lewa-12.08.05-supersonic-7905cc.zip

lewa-12.08.05-supersonic-deodex-2e7c73.zip

lewa-12.08.05-supersonic-EXPERIMENTAL-236b27.zip
[EVO 4G Android Development] shaglioni:
And Navaj, the one I'm using right now is the deodex version with the mason G kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] krazyjay36:
Are there any themes in English that work with this Rom
[EVO 4G Android Development] v5HMeca:
The latest version of LeWa has an option to long-press the back button to load the camera app. I'm taking a look at the code right now, and I can probably refactor it to instantiate the torch instead, but I'm having a difficult time figuring out how to refactor the keycode to reflect the home button instead of the back button.

So give me a day or two to figure this out.

Looks like their development branch is getting a little more stable (I was getting errors before and have been sticking with the stable releases). I have a feeling they'll update their stable release within the next week or so.
[EVO 4G Android Development] v5HMeca:
I just convert the default theme to English. I may decide to tackle some others as well.

The newest versions of LeWa allow for the entire OS to be reskinned, which is awesome. There are some MDPI themes out there in English that theme everything to look like MIUI, for example.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Austin Air:
Never seen this happen before, but then again, what the hell do I know... but anyways:

Did a full nandroid this morning, to recover some data off of an old rom (a previous nandroid with a different rom). Wipe, wipe, wipe, recover old rom... did what I needed to do.... wipe, wipe, wipe, loaded the Lewa backup that I just made 30 minutes earlier... and ....

All of my user installed apps were gone and were replaced with a default android icon. (So they were listed in the apps menu). However, when you'd click on them, it would say "Application not installed." They were listed under my Manage Applications screen as being there too, but if you tried to clear cache or do anything, it would say not installed.

Didn't lose anything that was imperative, but had never seen this happen before. Operator error maybe or something else?
[EVO 4G Android Development] shaglioni:
I may have experienced something like that before and I would think that it could have been an incomplete nandroid or some of the files that tried to reload in the process were corrupt or missing. I always have used clockwork method, haven't tried RA, so I know that clockwork could just experience issues every now and then. I've had some hiccups and get upset over using it but I still use it as it works most of the time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] v5HMeca:
I'm not sure what that would be, but did you try fixing permissions? Those are some odd symptoms, though.

I use nandroid as well as Rom Toolbox (which uses backup methods similar to Titanium Backup). All of my texts, emails, contacts, etc. are backed up remotely. Plus I do regular backups of my sdcard to my computer.
[EVO 4G Android Development] v5HMeca:
lewa-12.09.05-supersonic-STABLE

- added Torch to Notification Panel

- added Swype and PDroid to default whitelist

- updated lewa (LeWa_ROM_U8800x_12.09.05_ae8c0)
[EVO 4G Android Development] anyscai:
hope nice use,but the developer of 09.07 had uploaded!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] shaglioni:
Hey Meca, am I able to just delete the caches and install the new stable over the one I'm running now? Or do you recommend a clean install with the new updated stable?
[EVO 4G Android Development] v5HMeca:
I was able to do exactly this.

There is a risk of orphaned files in /data/app/ when you do this, however, but the time spent deleting the orphaned files is a lot less than the time you would otherwise be spending reconfiguring all of your apps.

Eventually I'll use package manager to install apps (something that, for whatever reason, none of the ROM developers seem to do), which should make this go a lot smoother.
[EVO 4G Android Development] anyscai:
the file lewa-12.09.07-supersonic-deodex-4d2944.zip is wrong ,the size is not right!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] v5HMeca:
It was a bad upload. I'll take care of it within the hour.

edit: Fixed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
There's no option to rearrange apps by name in the app drawer correct? Was just curious
[EVO 4G Android Development] shaglioni:
There is no way. I tried looking for a way before but the only thing that can manage that is yourself by dragging the app icons around in the order you want.
[EVO 4G Android Development] v5HMeca:
"Reset Home Screen" also does it ... but it also resets your home screen, including icons and widgets you may have added to it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] krazyjay36:
Kernel?

What is the best kernel for this rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] memekmek:
IM really digging this rom. i was getting so tired of sense after using cm7 for a long time. I always liked MIUI but i need the 4g. Is there a way to disable sms popup? i could not find it under notification settings.

EDIT:

Found the option under real time note. Thanks! I did see some people asking about the screen wake when an sms is received. I could go for the option to disable screen wake when sms is received. Not a deal breaker though.

Thanks for all the awesome updates! So much to explore still!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Navoj042175:
Is the 9016 Tex message fix when getting a voicemail?
[EVO 4G Android Development] shaglioni:
Well, I was using lewa 9/5 version running mason g kernel for a couple of weeks and Saturday evening it died. Bootlooped and can't recognize the pc36img file AMD I can't get into recovery. I have never ran into this before. No matter what I tried, could not get into recovery. I'm assuming after years of tinkering with the EVO it couldn't take it anymore and it bricked. So Sunday afternoon picked up an EVO LTE. Really like it. Didn't care to try out the Samsung.
[EVO 4G Android Development] memekmek:
I must say...for the life of me today i cannot get the 4g to connect, 4g worked perfectly yesterday. i flashed back to a sense rom to restore wimax and data settings, but its just constantly scanning.

EDIT: well after hours of it not working, it finally worked. i dont know what the deal was. i guess patience is key. I am really digging this ROM. glad i found it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] killa408shark:
Is there an option on contacts where you can chose between your phone contacts or gmail contacts ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] coolwater22:
well idk if this is what you wanted but you can sync your gmail contacts by going to accounts & sync > click on your gmail account > sync contacts.

if you want your phone contacts just go into your contact book > press menu > import/export contacts >import from sd card...

hope that helps
[EVO 4G Android Development] Savetheknot:
How can I get my notifications to play thru my headset while music is playing?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
Anyone else getting alot of random disconnects on 4g? Ill be full bars then it just loses all signal and I have to turn 4g off then on to get it back sometimes. And is anyone getting FC's on the music app when multitasking( like scrolling through apps and doing other stuff). I'm on the latest stable release deodexed using Mason rc5. I love this rom. Its hard for me to leave this rom and when I do its for like 30mins then I have to restore back
[EVO 4G Android Development] msagas:
A2sd works?
[EVO 4G Android Development] coolwater22:
just set your notification sound on high and it should go to your headset....
[EVO 4G Android Development] Navoj042175:
Could any one share or guide me on the right way the set the screen brightness? my one is to dark in a low light it room, even in a bright one I need to face the phone to he light to be able to see the screen, also it dims to fast.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] memekmek:
You can change the brightness and timeout of your screen under settings>display then change the brightness to whatever you would like and you can also change your screen timeout from there.

also if you want to quickly change your display backlight you can add it to your toggles in the notification pulldown. just go to settings>toggle and add it to the list.

let me know if you need help finding it still!
[EVO 4G Android Development] memekmek:
This rom is simply amazing. I prefer it over Mokee because I like the OS of lewa more. however Mokee has a 4g and tether toggle in their status bar. if you added that. this rom would be rockin!
[EVO 4G Android Development] v5HMeca:
That's because Mokee uses the CM7 buttons, which makes modifying its panel a breeze.

Lewa rolls their own, which makes it a lot harder. I've looked into it but it's not the same as CM7 at all. I'm not sure if I could refactor the CM7 buttons for Lewa.

If I get some free time, maybe I'll take another look at it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ronaldh05:
Maybe this is what he meant to ask but if not then I am. Same problem but just with the automatic backlight setting. For now I just turned the brightness up but obviously stays the same all the time which I think is hurting my battery time. Maybe there's a way to change the automatic settings... I have no idea. Thanks for any help.

Edit: Also saw somebody ask about the 9016 voicmail text message a few posts back... Any fix for that?

Thanks again.

Great Rom

Hey, great work on this ROM.

I have tried ROM after ROM looking for something that worked well

and had decent battery life on the Evo 4g.

I'm stuck with this Evo until next May, so I have to make the best of it.

I am having one issue that I've seen mentioned a couple of times on here:

The default music player app force closes immediately when trying to open it.

It doesn't matter what I'm doing, fresh reboot, etc.

I'm using mason r15 kernel, and the latest developer edition of the ROM.

Can anybody help?

Many thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] memekmek:
You may be able to tweak with it in the advanced settings of the backlight. but i usually change it manually. i found that a 60-75% dim is good for both low and bright light areas. i never liked automatic backlight because it would change too much for me. also with the 9016 voicemail, with almost all cm7 roms, you will always get it. i usually add it to the blacklist so even if i do get it, i dont get notified for it. i dont think there is a fix for that. has anyone confirmed geting mms on this rom? mine would never download.
[EVO 4G Android Development] itrs:
going from reloaded to this! hoping for good stuff!

edit!!

this is an awesome rom!!! from what I can tell it might kill my battery but nice stuff!

ONE major problem though that made me switch back to reloaded..... data speed is crap! it takes forever to load a simple page something minimal like craigslist.

i can't work with that. the time outs are not pleasant in market. anything you can tell me about this?

edit!

I got the data speed fixed, just flashed the radio again after flashing the ROM itself.

I have been putting feedback, would like to see

1) sprint visual voicemail app there, I had a titanium backup but it just loops the "restoring app" messagge (i.e. for an hour)

---> It's cynogenmod so I know it'll be like that with the 9### text messages, one downside for me.

2) App drawer sorting, it gets frustrating searching for an app.

3) i'm trying to find ways to extend battery life ATM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] v5HMeca:
For VVM, see this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27538679&postcount=93

I don't use VVM, so this is one area where I'm not sure how to approach it. The guide above (by Circaflex) is the best I can offer unless anyone has any suggestions. If there's a way I can prepare the ROM to be VVM-ready, I'm willing to do that so it becomes as easy as just installing the VVM app for the end-user.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coolwater22:
how you increase data speed?? care to help :)

and whats the difference between 09-05-12 and 10-12-12??
[EVO 4G Android Development] memekmek:
has anyone else had MMS issues with this rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] theHURRICANE:
Just wanted to thank you for the fantastic ROM!
[EVO 4G Android Development] theHURRICANE:
Is beats audio automatically on? If not how do I enable it? Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coolwater22:
vibration and back light!!!!

for the life of me i cant seem to silence my phone and have the backlight off when i get a text. when i put my phone on silence,on the system as well as the sms app, it still vibrates and the back light still turns on(its off on the sms app)...im using go sms...

please help someone, anyone.........thanks ahead of time.:)
[EVO 4G Android Development] v5HMeca:
Some ROMs might have a special indicator when headphones are plugged in, but that indicator is only cosmetic. You can install Beats Audio™ Installer ★ root if you're concerned that it's not working. You should see that when you launch the app, it says "Ready," indicating that it has detected that the drivers are already installed. There's nothing else to it other than setting some properties, which I do through build.prop.

I am thinking about removing Beats Audio, though. I think it's probably a waste of space for most people including myself. Anyone else have any opinions on removing it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] v5HMeca:
Settings->Application->Messages->Notification Settings->Notification Vibrate.

Unfortunately, I do not know of a way to disable the back light when a message shows up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coolwater22:
thank you sir. i have been looking for that for awhile. i had it silent before but it never stayed silent. i went through the stock sms app and disabled that,disabled the go sms vibration, put phone on silent and it didnt work.

This did the trick .....you have been thanked :)....

my search goes on for the backlight off option....
[EVO 4G Android Development] memekmek:
my main issue for leaving this rom was that it had problems downloading MMS messages. sometimes it worked, sometimes it didnt. I noticed most of the times it didnt work were when it was an MMS along with a text message. or the reply all text messages that some phones(such as iphone) have the ability to do. they seemed to always come up as MMS and i could never download them. I even tried the spoof MMS but it still did no good. sigh...i really liked this rom but i need to see my messages
[EVO 4G Android Development] coolwater22:
thought it worked :(.......

it was working, but then it went back to its old ways and started to vibrate again......cant seem to get it to work :(

lewa-12.10.23-supersonic-STABLE

- removed Bravia Engine

- removed Beats Audio

- removed LewaMarket.apk

- changed kernel (Mason-G-d15rc4-sbc-supersonic-signed)

- updated lewa (LeWa_U8800x_ROM_12.10.22_9aaa0)
[EVO 4G Android Development] memekmek:
Sweet :) thanks!!! :D:D:D:D:D:cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greatness83:
is the bravia and beats mod in the dev version?

or do you have a link to the last version with those mods? i started using this rom as with the 10-23 version
[EVO 4G Android Development] v5HMeca:
I removed both of them. I'm not convinced that Bravia does anything at all, and Beats is just a waste of space for many people like me who don't care one way or another if it's there.

Beats is easily added, though.

Latest version

- http://d-h.st/KNG

You can also check out Rocko Dev's page. ('ICS & GB BeatsAudio')

- http://rockodevbeatsaudio.webs.com/downloads
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greatness83:
Thanks. i wasnt sure if the Bravia engine was there to speed things up. If its not really needed then I wont even bother, and as far as Beats go, does it really work for the Evo?
[EVO 4G Android Development] v5HMeca:
I'm not sure. I think it's pervasive enough around these parts that it probably makes some sort of difference. I don't have nice headphones to test it. If you have some nice headphones, you can do a before/after to see if you notice a difference.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mordred69:
Hi, Dev.

I was looking for something like this for my retired EVO as I plan on giving it to my kid á-la-iPod... and frankly, MIUI makes my phone lag a storm and it's too heavy.

Thanks for this ROM, will be trying it and reporting anything I see.

I am also downloading BEATS as I have a Stereo 900w PreAmp (Behringer EuroPower PMP960S) that I use for my band, parties and karaokes, and want to see if it really makes a difference when I hook it up

Again, THANKS for your hard work!

Flashing

Hi all, I haven't seen anywhere in here about flashing tips as far as sd card partioning, swap size whether or not to upgrade ext 3 to ext 4 etc.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coolwater22:
partition it..i dont have it upgraded to ext 4. i have ext 3...i cant remember the size i had and dont know how to check it out....

i can say this wipe everything except sdcard 2x then wipe then wipe user data/factory reset 3 times and then flash...thats what i did its been smooth sailing...

hope this helps :)

lewa-12.12.01-supersonic-deodex

- updated lewa (LeWa_U8800x_ROM_12.11.30_bf4c0)

Lewa also removed a few APKs (LewaFeedback.apk, LewaPush.apk, and Power+.apk). If you used Power+.apk and would like it back, let me know and I'll grab it from an older version of Lewa. Otherwise I might suggest looking up Llama in the Play Store as an alternative to Power+.

Eliminate Battery Icon?

Thanks for the additional updates to this ROM. It's a great one for those of us on old equipment. Just one question: Is it possible to add an option to delete the standard battery icon so we can just use the top bar one? I know that CM has it but all I find in the settings for this ROM is the ability to switch between graphical and percent.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coolwater22:
has the silence option bug been fixed?? i have been using the previous version and for some reason i cannot for the life of me set anything on silence other then phone calls. i can take the sound off but it still vibrates when its in silence mode. i have put every option in the phone on silence and still cant get the phone not to vibrate when i get a text........anyone help?? thanks

Edit: i found a bug. i dont think its been reported and if has been my bad. like i stated above i try to put my phone on silent when receiving text messages and dont want it to vibrate. i found that the only way to get this option is use the stock app and have the "notifications" option on and put it on silent and turn off vibrate. now when i receive messages it doesnt vibrate. however,when i turn off "notifications" and use a third party messaging app(i.e., go sms) it vibrates........any help on how to use a third party app and not have it vibrate when receiving a message?? thanks guys....other then that its preety solid :). keep up the good work guys

Just thought some people would like to see the battery life of this rom. Moderate use for 1 day with 15 percent battery left. Wheatley governor, max 806 - min 384.
[EVO 4G Android Development] v5HMeca:
I don't really use my Evo 4G these days. It just sits around doing nothing.

Hello,

Just re-installed this rom, this time 12/18 stable version.

A couple questions:

- Is there a gapps.zip file that should be installed as well? Would it be gapps for ics or JB?

- When I have both bluetooth and wifi enabled and connected, the bluetooth keeps getting disconnected.

Thanks in advance for any help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greatness83:
any chance you could grab the power+ app? Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] l0gikal:
Anyone have luck using WiFi tether? I can't get it to work...either the native 'portable hotspot' app or using the Wifi Tether app from the market.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kz6fittycent:
Beats works as a compressor and it works for your ears too. Bravia is for your camera and makes subtle changes to the image after taken. They both work well on the evo. :D

Downloading as we speak. Thanks. It looks sooo good and my girlfriend likes the minimalism. So if its good ill flash it on hers too!

[EVO 4G Android Development] oohaylima:
Holy crap. I was not expecting this ROM to be so low on the list. I know this ran very smooth on my old Hero. Running it now and everything seems to be running great.

As for the person above me. Have you tried reinstalling everything?
[EVO 4G Android Development] fulanito01:
Sorry I'm late to the party. Just dusted off my evo (now a glorified car media player), and installed this ROM. Alwaysv loved the look and feel of MIUI and was running a somewhat sad port. Haven't put this through the paces yet but already loving the buttery smooth speed. Thanks op.
