Unfortunately, that issue seems to be directly related to Sprint's "Now Network" :rolleyes: I'm not sure where you are, but here in San Antonio, 3G has progressively gotten worse over the past couple months. Since the announced that they were turning on LTE, previous owners of 4G Wimax phones have been upgrading heavily and overloading the 3G network... how could this happen you ask, they are on 4G LTE right? No. LTE is on, but there are only 3 of the towers that are actually pushing LTE signal. I see my 4G come on for a grand total of on average 1 minute per day. IMO, Sprint totally failed when planning this roll out. I have spoken to 1 honest Sprint employee in the past 3 months and he said that in actuality, San Antonio will not be full activated until the end of October to beginning of November. So, long story short, your radios are probably just fine. We are currently at the mercy and speed of Sprint engineers. :(
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ajsp:
Ugg...I was afraid of that although it really did seem to be connected to flashing the new firmware. In any case I've flashed the radios (fullfirmware.zip) twice. Each time it was successful. At this point I've installed two different ROM and am getting the same ****ty performance over 3G. BTW I'm in the Boston area and I haven't seen any LTE service on Sprints network.

What really bummed me out is the other day I was looking at my friend HTC One X and he had a solid 4gLTE connection on ATT's network.

I guess I'll just roll with MeanROM 3.4 and see how things go over the next day or so. I really don't think there is anything I can do at this point. Do you think unrooting, relocking and reverting back to stock will help? Well I suppose it won't if it's truly a network congestion problem...Is there a way to test my radios/pri out other than the root metrics app?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bog3nator:
i would just wait, there is a new OTA out with new radios so you could flash those when they become available and see if that fixes your problem
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ajsp:
Yes that makes sense. I've done everything I think I can do at this point :). I just noticed the new OTA came out this morning. Sweet. Hopefully the new radios will be up soon!

Thanks again! I'm really appreciative of the help on this thread. I've posted elsewhere and got a whole bunch of nothing...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RyanInAj:
Just be glad you aren't in Phoenix - or anywhere in AZ for that matter.

Sprint has basically given everyone out here a big F-U regarding mobile data. We never got Wimax and we're vaguely slated for LTE service - meanwhile cities like Junction City, Kan and Sedalia, Mo have it.

On a more pleasant note - This Rom kicks nice round ass and squeezes big fat boobies! 2.1Ghz! Yea! Running flawlessly over here, thanks Mikey!

Not being able to close apps I know I am done using has been one of the biggest irritation to me with Android. The back button can be worse than useless on apps that keep going backwards through history before they finally exit.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kilokk:
I also agree, just wait... my brother is not rooted and has just as bad 3G speeds if not worse to be honest. Most likely due to bloat I'm sure for the slight difference. I have my ROM stripped of Sense and feel like that has improved the overall performance quite a bit in many areas. Also, for any of those who may be interested, I recently viewed the article for ICS Browser+ by appelflap, XDA featured http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...r-browsing-with-ics-browser-xda-developer-tv/ and think since I've used it over the past week that this browser is a bit more responsive definitely over the stock browser, Opera and Chrome.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cabbieBot:
Somewhat a tangent to the ROM, I'm looking into extra bloat that can be removed via ROMCleaner which supports MeanROM. It removes a bunch of HTC stuff right now but not Sprint stuff. Patric83 requested that I give him the app names here on the thread so they could be included on the next ROMCleaner update, and if we come up with a list of Sprint crap thats safe to remove, we can go ahead and add it to our own userscripts to make sure MeanROM keeps zooming like it should.

I remove Sprint Zone, Voicemail, Sprint Hotspot, and Sprint Installer. I'm about to dig into MeanROM and find the exact file name/location of those (as in /system/app/*.apk). Anyone else have other suggestions?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MRFERRARI23:
Looks like HTC and Sprint released another update for our beloved Evo4GLTE this time bringing ICS 4.0.4 and sense 4.1

How soon until you add this to your Rom?

FWIW I still have video glitches with evilZ at lowest clock rate. Went back to stock kernel and no problems.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] twe90kid:
There was an update for EvilZ Kernel last night.

Should we upgrade or keep as is? Did you include the newest kernel already since you've been working with Evil on the backend?

I use Google Voice.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
If you flash evil kernel you will lose mean rom tweaks, im pretty sure we have the newer kernel

O/C Safely, with ability to go back to Non-OC'ed?

I would like to try the overclock settings. I'm on 3.4, and have found the zip files for the following:

overclock-1728

overclock-1890

overclock-2106

overclock-off

Would it be safe to say that I can flash one of the OC zips, test it, and if I don't like it, or want to change, I can just flash over the top of it?

Example: I want to try 2.106 for a bit, then find it drains too fast, can I just flash overclock-off to reset back to 1.5?

Thanks in advance..

Mikey: If it gets any easier than you've made it, we won't have to touch our phones ever. Awesome work, Sir!!!!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ajada85:
Seems like OC 2.1 is doing the same as OC 1.8 as far as deleting text messages... i installed the zip and about 5 minutes in i went to my messages and they were gone... extremely snappy and fast though i might say...

Any way to stop the higher OC zips from deleting messages?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
Yes, it was that easy for me

Your phone doesn't like being OC' with the evilz kernel, did it do that on 1.7 as well?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] smallba:
I don't see why not, just as long as you wipe cache and dalvik cache before flashing to a different clock speed
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SRQ Rick:
Well my phone doesn't like to be OC'd over 1.89....bootloops at 2.1. Tried flashing Landscape rosie 4 x 5 zip in meanrom folder and doesn't seem to work with this kernel. Tried twice and it actually deleted my call history. Can anyone confirm this that its not working?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Already in. That's the version that I was testing for Zarboz yesterday most of the day.

Keep in mind that my take on Sense 4.1 really has nothing to do with if/when it will be incorporated because I like to rebase to the latest even if there are only minor changes so we are running the latest. With this one though, I want to look at the new base and kernel first to see what to take. Since we just got 1.22 based OC kernels that work for the majority of people, and because HTC can't get its act together and release kernel source in a timely fashion, I'm going to do what makes sense here. This time I may only take what actually gives us some gain because I don't want to go backwards and produce version 3.5 that all of a sudden can't be overclocked any more. It'll take me some time to see which pieces fit together to produce the most benefit.

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] njfoses:
I would nandroid first just in case. When I tried the 2.1 oc my phone would not boot and even when I tried flashing the no oc zip after my device still would not boot. I had to restore my nandroid in order to boot.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gianmarco00:
Btw, I have a general question that maybe someone can help with.

Because of my work, I have to keep my SD card encrypted. I'm now using a 2nd SD card to do these flashes, but when I put it in, it's mounted as a read-only card. As such, when I've tried to do nandroid backups, it won't allow me to do so and I've been taking a chance it all works. If I use the actual encrypted card, I also get an error message that it's unable to mount and also doesn't write.

Any suggestions on how to get one using either card when the settings call for encryption? If not aware, if I uncheck the encryption, it forces me to completely wipe my SD card that I use. While I keep a copy on the computer of the SD card anyway, that process of encryption on/off takes a while and makes these flashes much more difficult to do.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] crzycrkr:
What I was hoping you'd say. I couldn't care less about Sense 4.1 and would much rather have working kernels. I am interested to know if 4.0.4 has the speed increase I've heard about in the past though.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] netengineer:
I am still getting the screen glitches. I will be honest I have not gone back threw the post since upgrading to 3.4 so it may have been addressed.

Now I am running at 2.1 which is very fast and not sure if that could be causing it. Other than that everything works great!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] travisw0204:
I don't know if this has been answered and I've read almost every post in this thread. If it has been answered already please excuse my repeat of the question. I was wondering how would I go about changing the governor on the kernel without using a Set CPU, System Tuner or anything similar. My phone runs great but when I run InteractiveX it flies. I was just wondering if there was a way to do that without using a third party app.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fgr:
I also wonder if 4.0.4 seperates the notification and ringer volumns. Having to do the work arounds has always been irritating to me.

Glitchy

Hi, I've been flashing these roms for awhile with not much of a problem. 3.1 I believe is the last one I didn't have an issue with. Ever since then I've flashed 3.2-3.4 and my phone is super glitchy, and a lot of programs freeze and close. I've done full wipes and flashed and stuff like that but no luck. I've gotten the latest twrp, latest rom try to do a full wipe twice. Any suggestions?

I'm really enjoying 3.1, I don't have a problem with it, it would just be nice to continue to get the updates :).

thank you

Undervolting Question?

Ok, so im trying to undervolt my phone and im just wondering how other people are going about doing so. Ive changed my setting in that file from "NORMAL" to "UNDER" and saved that. I went into SetCPU and tried to use that to undervolt -50mV and that didnt seem to do anything. Ive gone into System Tuner Pro and the values are different that what SetCPU said they were. I undervolted in STP -50mV and they seem to have stuck but I have no idea how to tell. Is there another way to tell if my values have stuck?

I work of of Dezevala Rd behind the post office. You can get 4G signal for about 20 seconds twice a day then gone. My wife works off of 410W and Culebra Rd., she sees 4G signal less than I do. My brother has the same issue on an unrooted phone. We all live around Wurzbach and Vance Jackson....No signal...ever! I've even gone into the Sprint store on Dezevala and I-10, Wurzbach and I-10, and 1604 and Blanco Rd. and none of them have ever been able to produce any 4G speed tests because...wait for it...they never have 4G signal to test with. That is why I mentioned, which I have confirmed that there are only "3" LTE towers that are actually fully up in San Antonio. I'm glad you are able to enjoy LTE, that's cool, but I guarantee you if you drive around S.A. for ab 10 minutes in the middle, you will not have that 4G signal.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TP1085:
So I just got s-off this morning and this is the first Rom I've flashed..besides Fresh for the Panda. I updated firmware this morning, but then the new firmware came out. Is that something I would want to flash separately, or would it be better to wait for an update from Mikey that uses the new firmware before flashing it?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] caspertodd:
I definitely like the faster clock speeds in this ROM, but was having issues with navigation apps (Waze in particular) running at full clock speed the entire time, overheating my phone, and then locking it up. In case anyone else runs into this, I solved the problem by using Tasker (best app ever created). Tasker lets you set a clock speed when a particular app is running, among other things. I set Tasker up to run at 810 Mhz when Waze is opened. So far it is working perfectly. This lets me have the benefits of the higher clock speed, but not kill my phone during travel. Awesome ROM by the way. Thanks for the work on it Mikey.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CBRRider:
Does it actually run at 810 Mhz when waze is running? Did you check it in system tuner? If this is true, I may have to do the same thing as I use my GPS a couple times a week when I have to go visit customers.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Thanks for the diag file. In looking at it, your WiFi was off which means the 3G radio was hard at work draining your battery. These phones draw a lot more current when running on a 3G connection: that's an HTC thing. The problem gets worse if you are in a fringe area (less than 3 bars) where the phone has to work extra hard to keep a signal. Your battery life looks decent for the usage and being on 3G data.

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] youngbasedgod:
So if we turn wifi on, it's better for the battery?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] eeman_:
Yeah, my office is a bit of a fringe area with regard to data. My building is all metal with isolated windows. It seems like the OC drains it a bit quicker, so I may flash the remove OC zip. I do remember getting excellent battery on 3.0, but that was at home with my Wi-Fi on.

thats funny cause i10 and de zavala sprint store has 4g coverage. 1604/culebra, my neighborhood in helotes (behind the exxon), guilbeau and bandera, parts of the quarry, UTSA is covered, airport, 1604/braun. outlet malls in san marcos, and castroville airport. are the places ive personally seen 4g. only 1 being kind hit or miss seems to be 1604/culebra,

if theres only 3 lte towers up in the city thats some pretty vast coverage from them in the places where lte is up. oh yeah boerne is pretty well covered in lte as well.

i will say that my wifes gs3 picks up and holds a 4g signal much better than the evo. i havent updated radios yet to todays OTA to see if it helps but ive been somewhat disapointed in the radio in the LTE compared to the gs3.

Maybe it will... hopefully.... I will say, when I was leaving work today I was sitting at the light on Dezevala and Silicon Dr., just before the Sprint store and I-10.. Holy S*%T 4G!! So I started downloading the v3.4 OTA. It got to 40% and as I passed under I-10 and continued past HEB... it stopped and 3G kicked back in :mad: Sprint can be the worse tease ever. From what the Sprint rep said, there are 2 towers close to downtown fully active and another one on 1604, which sounds about right because when I'm on my way to my part-time j.o.b I will get 4G for awhile, but never long enough to really say, "Wow. I have 4G!!" In all honesty I am glad that some people around are able to enjoy it, makes it more hopeful for the rest of us.
