I was on 6.5 for a while, everything was perfect. I then switched to the MeanBean. Not a good experience for me, battery life was the main thing. I switched back to 6.5, the battery life is the same as MeanBean. Maybe the Rom will settle in and that will get better.

Now I'm having issues with WiFi. When I leave the house I have to manually turn off the WiFi or it will never switch to 3G.

Has anyone had this issue or know what may be causing it?

I've looked but couldn't find anything.

I'm S-off with hboot 1.19. I always do a full wipe before install.

Failed Install v65 and v64

Good Afternoon Everyone:

I've finally decided to get the LTE and Root, etc. I am having problems though.

- I followed the instructions to Root from here:

- Everything seemed to go well.

- Decided on MeanROM (seems like an excellent ROM).

- I had one error that was resolved by some comments in the thread (problem was failed install, and also unmounted SD card).

- I am currently trying to install Mean 6.5. It gets about 75% through the (blue bar) and just sits. I let it sit for quite a while and no movement.

- I killed the install and tried a few times with no luck.

- Installed Superwipe and tried again with no luck. I got an error regarding MD5 or something.

- Thought i would try version 6.4. This one just fails once again the error messags are: "Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip (status: 0), verify filesystems..., Verify parition sizes...

Error Flashing zip '/dscard2/Roms/MeanROM-ICS-v64-jewel-ltevo.zip'

Any help will be really appreciated. thanks.

Try updating your twrp to v2.3.1.0 or v2.3.3.0
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] _sunz:
big619 thanks for the response. I updated 2.3.3.0. The problem is seemingly the same. the list of entries are as follows.

- formatting and mounting partition...

- Clearing cache & dalvik...

- installing /system...

- installing /data...

- Creating links...

-setting permissions...

-installing busybox...

installing kernal, please wait...

I'm currently waiting (i'll wait for 20 minutes or so)

Also between my first post and now i tried installing two other roms that finished successfully but never booted. UR/EVO (screen just went blank) and stock with goodies (continuous reboot)

****While i was typing that response***

IT completed successfully but upon reboot the screen just went black... any thoughts..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
If you are S-ON you have to flash the kernel seperatlly but MeanROM has a kernel installer so that shouldn't be an issue
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] _sunz:
Honestly i thought i was on S-off but i have to admit that i am not sure how to tell ... where my old evo tells me the s state .. on this one it says "***Tampered ****, **** UNLOCKED*****"

does that mean i am on S-off...

where would i find the kernal installer?

---------- Post added at 06:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:39 PM ----------

Just found it .. says im s-on.

Try flashing MeanROM again wipe cache/del cache/factory reset/system it will take a little longer to boot

I unlocked and rooted my ex wife's phone last night, but the dirty racoon was giving me a run for my money...needless to say, I gave up and just gave it to her with s-on and MEANROM 6.5...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] _sunz:
Thanks for all of your help. It is all installed. Ran into a problem with acore file or something crashing. A quick search and i had to clear the contact data in the app manager (weird).

I really want to get the device to S-off though. i'll work on that tomorrow maybe.

Thanks again!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
You are welcome and yes S-OFF is the way to go it will save you many headaches down the road :D good luck.

Well, count me as coming back to ics. Deep sleep back to 93.8 as opposed to 70 on JB. Screw that buggy crap with no kernel source. Long live ics! It's not mike's fault. This one is on HTC.

MeanROM 4G LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
I'm on meanbean and my phone deep sleeps 97-99% :confused:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baknblack:
You using better battery stats?

MeanROM 4G LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
Yup
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baknblack:
You've never seen the kernel wakelock hs_mgr?

Maybe a lot of the LTEs have hardware issues as it seems lots of people are having battery drain on the new base. Maybe you got lucky. Soon as i restored my meanrom ics nandroid my headset wakelock was gone.

I sure hope it can be fixed once the kernel source drops.

MeanROM 4G LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baknblack:
I think I stumbled on to something. I flashed back to ics and everything returned to normal. Ran it for about 4 hours just to make sure. I then nandroided back to my JB. Low and behold the kernel wakelock is gone!!!!! Won't really know for a few hours if it fixed it but, right now it looks promising.

Maybe some headset hardware got left in a funky state during the initial flash. I had even contacted the the guy that wrote BBS and he in turn has a contact at google that told him the headset manager should not be causing a wakelock.

fingers crossed!!!!!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
Here are s couple screens

Sent from my MeanBean infused EVO 4G LTE :p
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baknblack:
That's phenomenal, how?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
To be honest I don't use my phone much... but data is always on and I have auto sync turned off
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baknblack:
I see. Anyway, that hs_mgr one was stuck on. Always around 30% on mrics my deep sleep would average around 90 with data / wifi on and sync on, screen off.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
I know they say to have wifi on all the time if possible because it saves battery... but I was doing that and noticed I was losing 15-20% per hour until I used BBS and noticed wifi had almost 7000 wakelocks in 5 hours I turned wifi off problem solved I only use it if I need it

im s-off and flash the new firmwear and radio zip.. and im running meanbean now but my battery life aint so great.. so if i was to go back to mean rom 6.5 ICS will everything run ok?? or because i flashed the new firmwear and radio will it f things up? thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] b1gsby_02:
I did the same thing. Everything runs just as good as it did before updating firmware and radio.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tybo31316:
Everything will run fine. When the jelly bean update released. I updated my firmware while waiting for mean bean to be released. Everything worked fine. You can go back to ICS with no prob. Whatever you do..... DO NOT DOWNGRADE your firmware though you will brick your device. Mikey bricked one of his devices that way.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baknblack:
Seems a lot of us are having poor battery life. I'm back on MR ics myself. Wish better battery stats was a free program so we could see if everyone complaining of battery drain has the same problem. Of the ones I've seen using bbs they have the same wakelock I do.

Hey, I'm on the newest release of the MeanRom...and I downloaded Oovoo.....

I was wondering why when I use Oovoo with the mic on I hear "birds"...I then turn the mic off, and back on, and the birds are gone for a minute or two, but then return. I have Oovoo on 2 other devices, with no issues....that's why I was thinking it was a phone/rom issue....any ideas?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Dakidd516:
Battery life has gone down since upgrading firmware... I must agree with the others... Only upgraded firmware to test mean bean but agree coming back to ICS the battery life deplete very rapidly
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lucidox:
How long have you been on ICS since switching from JB? Sometimes battery stats take a while to settle after ROM flashes in general, but then again I have read multiple posts confirming HTC rushed the JB release.

Anyone else have battery-related issues like this after switching back to ICS with the new firmware?

If so, is it just general battery drain, trouble sleeping, etc?

If this is more widespread, I may stick with the old firware/MeanROM, as it works really well.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baknblack:
I'm running mrics on the new firmware. Battery is great. It back to sleeping around 95% when not in use. I was getting around 75 with JB and the headset manager wakelock.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Dakidd516:
Been on ICS mean ROM for awhile jus that I updated radios and etc then tried mean bean then switched backed and noticed battery stats declined and I've had meanrom for about a week

Quick Question - S-on to S-off

I am S-on, want to run the s-off tool but I have a couple questions.

Can i do a nandroid with my current setup(Mean Rom 6.4), do the S-off (full wipe), install current firmware (for MeanBean), once success restore the nandroid to get back to where I was (Mean Rom6.4) and be s-off?

My question is does the nandroid backup copy the firmware as well? Not sure about this...

Thanks in advance..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baknblack:
Don't see why not. Just backup your sd card to your computer and make sure your nandroid is on the backed up card. Just in case. A nandroid backup is boot, system, and data.

No firmware is backed up.

MeanROM 4G LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cruise350:
Yes, you can do this, but restore your nandroid back up before you install the firmware bits. And remember, only install the first one listed that is radio and firmware. Do not install the one with the new hboot.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] schmeggy929:
Yes it has the new super extended quick settings. Its the systemUI. Apk from meanROM 1.2

And our phones dont have Wimax so probably it was an LTE tower.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] KnoxBNYC:
For some reason, I thought this phone wasn't capable of LTE without a firmware upgrade? I thought they were gonna do a firmware upgrade once LTE starts rolling out.

I don't see LTE or 4G mentioned in the settings (to be able to turn 4G off like you could with WiMAX phones, for example).

No?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:

+1. Combed thoroughly through the post boot script to see what would be causing the conflict and bootloops, and cannot pinpoint the issue. Finally decided not to manually F w/ anything in there and just flashed the OC zip after a reset and reflash of the ROM. Any insight into this would be great, as it worked fine on the previous version!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] schmeggy929:
Lol you bought an Evo 4G LTE phone it better be capable of LTE. And yes we can turn it off and on. Just have to wait until the service is up in and running.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] travisw0204:
Has anyone checked the MD5? For some reason on the mirror to download it says 711521c3a92e376ae1c31a2b191c03f5 but when I run the MD5 through WinMD5 from the zip file I downloaded I'm getting this: 015b262f8f060f3b037dd4b2e2da7639. I don't wanna flash anything with a mismatched MD5 in fear it might screw something up. What do you guys think?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] KnoxBNYC:
Since there are no LTE available on Sprint at this point...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wwjoshdew:
I check the MD5 before uploading. So just download the zip again. Could of just been a bad download.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] travisw0204:
I figured that as well. Thanks a lot Josh. I'll download it again. On a side note, the WinMD5 check was all thanks to you from the RegawMod Bootloader Customizer. Thanks for the great info. It saved me this time fore sure.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Maybe it doesn't like voltages over 1.3 volts. Open the init.qcom.post_boot.sh file and go where you see this:

1) insmod /system/etc/krait_oc.ko pll_l_val=57 vdd_uv=1225000;;

14) insmod /system/etc/krait_oc.ko pll_l_val=70 vdd_uv=1375000;;

15) insmod /system/etc/krait_oc.ko pll_l_val=71 vdd_uv=1375000;;

*) insmod /system/etc/krait_oc.ko pll_l_val=64 vdd_uv=1325000;;

Starting with the line 8) change all the uv values to 1300000 including the last *) line. Maybe the 1325, 1350, and 1375 voltages are too high.

Kernel tuner is a free app and will turn off the sweep features. 6.5 is one sweet running rom.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] buddahj:
+1 & the sweep features are pretty slick.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CBRRider:
No need for the kernel tuner. There is an all-sticky-settings-template.zip file in your MeanROM-ICS folder that you can flash from recovery which will create the /data/MeanROM.opt file for you: it creates a template that has ALL of the adjustable parameters below as comments in the file. Simply edit that /data/MeanROM.opt file and change the mode setting to "0" and that disables all the sweep actions.

The version included in MeanRom is a modded version to work on ICS, the official version requires Jelly Bean.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] P.Mobile:
well i been on meanbean since it came out but im coimg back to ICS now.. im so not happy with jelly bean.. my phone dont sleep like it did on ICS so im back!!:D my battery sleeps like sh*t..drops 2-3% per hour while sleeping ICS dropped 1% or less.. i hope HTC fixes all these problems.. cause this is BS.. its funny mad heads were stressin about getting jelly bean.. we get it and it blows :mad: figures
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CBRRider:
Just curious why you and some other people care so much about how much the battery drains overnight? Why not just leave it on the charger overnight, then it's 100% when you wake up. Or do you not use it for hours at a time during the day?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Majin101:
No problems for me, all is well
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] P.Mobile:
its not good to leave a battery charging all nite long..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CBRRider:
Oh, I know it's not good. But there are electronics in phones these days that taper off the charging around 90% and reduce the current draw from the phone. By the time I plug my phone in for the night, it's down to less than 25%. I also use a low current output charger so it takes longer to charge. Plus, by charging at a lower current rate, you actually get more charge into the battery. :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gianmarco00:
Because how a phone sleeps is a good indication how it does using battery as a baseline comparison. If it's eating over 10% over just a few hours then that's cutting into how long my battery will last. I didn't even begin to worry about my battery life through the day with ICS. Now, I have to make sure I start the day with a full charge and be mindful at times or it won't make it all day.

Wife's daily driver?

My wife has been complaining like hell since going to JB. (More than usual... LOL... )

Rooted her phone to enable wifi tether... (foxfi worked before the update...) she's still stock, but wanted to get your opinion on this as a daily driver for a non tech...

Ran Mikey's roms on the 3vo...

Thanks!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Los Altos:
Add me to the list of returns. Was on MB since the release, and tried a few others a long the way. Never got close to the battery life of ICS, it was like the E3D w/GB. Weather it was HS_MGR, Nav, camera F/C's etc. it was always something. I saw absolutely no advantage to JB as an OS. Yes @ 1.5 it was as fast as ICS @ 1.7, but thats about it. Maybe when kernel source drops it will be different, but Ive had enough at this point.

When JB dropped people were like, "Wow, it feels like a NEW phone!" Thanks, but I like my phone much better today because it feels like my OLD phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mulhiny:
I would easily recommend this as a daily. Very stockish with just the right tweaks. Battery life is superb also. I'm at 10% left with being off charger 26 1/2 hours and 5 hours of screen time..this is almost as good as my Note 2 was.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cruise350:
That might have been true 10 years ago, but it doesn't apply now. There is absolutely no detriment to leaving your phone on the charger, except that you will have a fully charged phone to start the day with.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tm21fourt3:
I'm using the 6.5, and have been since it was released...

However, last night I ran into my first real issue. I had absolutely no service. Kept getting error 67 on my screen. I tried toggling the mobile network switch a few times, and tried restarting twice. Finally got it back to normal....but is there a better solution if this happens again?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DisplacedMic:
Well what was the solution that ended up working? Could it have been a network outage?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rpenrod23:
I would also recommend MeanBean, which is Mikey's JB version of this ROM.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] pimpitout007:
MEANRom at this point is more stable with better battery life in my opinion. I am running the MEANBean on mine and MEANRom on my fiances' being as it is more stable and settles well. With MEANRom she also has the choice between the Timber's Blue or Kang red themes which is nice.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] P.Mobile:
when u leave the phone on the charger all nite its charges to 100% then goes back to 90% then back up to 100%..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DisplacedMic:
Is that true? I'm not sure I've ever seen my phone read anything other than 100 after charging it fully
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] LiquidSolstice:
Yes, that's how safe charging works. This is because constantly charging the phone from 99 to 100% damages the battery, but modern day phones are smart enough to let the percentage drop all the way to 90 even if it's still on the charger, and then it charges it back up to 100. This is perfectly safe and preferred.

There is no reason not to leave your phone on the charger the whole night. At best it's an overkill method of Airplane Mode, at worst it's just really stupidly inconvenient.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] P.Mobile:
thank u sir!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DisplacedMic:
Interesting, I knew it worked that way but I didn't know it went as far down as 90.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Majin101:
i think i wanna come back to this also -_-
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tltb26:
I didn't read the entire rom thread, but I did read through surrounding pages of users who posted the same problem. Maybe an oversight but I did not read of a solution.

My phone will not dismiss calendar events from the lock screen. It will also not access the assigned apps in the lock screen. The one temporary work around I found, is more often it will dismiss calendar events when the lock screen shortcuts are enabled; but it still doesn't access those short cuts assigned.

I have not tried to reflash. MD5 was verified and a proper wipe/flash was done. I thought maybe it was a minor bug with a fix in the working...so I'm willing to wait.

Otherwise, phenomenal Rom. Much thanks to Mikey. Your work and genius is appreciated.
