Thanks for the logs. They really do help! I see that from 9:06am through 10:34am, the screen was off most of the time but at 9:06am your WiFi connection says it was off (failed). Then at 10:37am you turned the screen on and WiFi came back to life. Your battery went from 94% to 72% in the 9:06 to 10:34am timeframe, most likely because you had no WiFi and the phone was using the much more battery hungry mobile data radio.

Any idea what might have caused your WiFi connection to fail at 9:06am? It was fine (WiFi connected OK) from 12:31am until 9:06am when it failed. I believe the WiFi connection failure is what caused the drain.

Hey Mikey, I know this has been beaten like a dead horse, but is there any way to keep nightly files smaller. I would love to help test out nightlies, but 660 mb each time makes me want to wait for the next official release as the new features aren't worth the time to download.

NTSC is something North America and some South America countries use, its a 60Hz standard. PAL is used by the majority of the world, and it is a 50Hz standard. The other standard is SECAM, used by the countries that don't use PAL or NTSC.

Is it safe to update PRL from sprint if I am s-off running this Rom?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Majin101:
Yes why would it not be safe ?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] firegeek:
My first taste of 4G... Drinking an adult beverage waiting for my flight at LAX...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] seewhyphotos:
Of course. PRL is, in a nutshell, a listing of preferences and tower searchings that your phone uses to connect. It's obviously a bit deeper than that, but that's the high level. Has nothing to do with the ROM.

Here is a snippet on what it stands for:

PRL stands for Preferred Roaming List and is a database used in CDMA (think Sprint and Verizon here) phones. It's built and provided by your carrier, and used when your phone is connecting to the tower. It indicates which radio bands, sub-bands, and service provider IDs will be searched for, then allows the phone to connect to the correct tower.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] travisw0204:
It's all good dude. I can't complain at all. You put so much work into every release that multiple flashes in one day isn't a big deal for me. As long as it works to your standards and you say it's good, I'm flashing away.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] c5satellite2:

+1 Same here. I've even noticed a few new things I didn't see before. Like an additional screen calibration under Settings -> Display and a new Phone Finder feature under Settings -> Location. I already use Avast Anti-Theft so the latter probably isn't very useful to me, but I'd like to find out more about it anyway since it's enabled by default.

Also my messaging and contacts has been stable as a rock. LOVING 5.3. Thanks Mike!!!

I think I found a small bug. Can anyone confirm this one? It's by no means an urgent fix, but the Gallery app crashes and shuts down when I try to access my Dropbox gallery from the dropdown list at the top. Loading Facebook and Picasa albums through the Gallery is working fine; it's just Dropbox that's messed up and crashing the Gallery app.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Game619:
i think you did a factory reset? i just dirty flash it from recovery, and everything is there, even went to that screen that says Android is now updating......applications updated.....

i normally just go to dropbox app to view pictures from there, but i went ahead and tried & confirm your bug, the gallery app did crash and close on me :/

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] obperryo:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] GueroLonghorn:
I'm loving this so far, thanks for your hard work. I'm rooted, panda and was running 2.xx until I dirty flashed 4.x last week. I'm not having any issues other than not being able to insert text into a picture I'm sharing via mms. It's not new for me on 5.3, been going on.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Yeah, may need someone to confirm that it worked on 4.9. Don't want to go on a wild goose chase like with the sms delete multiple drafts bug... Which is there on the stock rom.

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kusanagi-sama:
For some reason, it seems only since the last update to 2.13, the mms app does not keep the "display number of lines" set to what I keep it (usually 1 to see more text conversations on screen), and occasionally forgets what ringer I use for texts (even the modded One X mms app does this). It didn't seem to do this on the previous version.

Currently on 5.1 BTW. Going to update to 5.3 in a bit.

Is 5.3 dirty flashable from 4.9? I know full wipes are recommended.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
I dirty flashed from 4.9 to 5.0 to 51 to 5.w to 5.3 no problems :D, nandroid just in case tho
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ElMadre:
Who recommends them? From the OP:

"Otherwise, do a fresh install the first time to MeanROM ICS 3.5 or later, reinstall your apps by getting them from the market again and setting them up, and then after you've installed any version 3.5 or later, you can dirty flash future versions after that."

For the record, I've dirty dirtied every single version since 3.5, and I'm running great.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Game619:
great point! how about that is just an option fix, because i dont see it as a big issue, we can just use Dropbox app to view its content...maybe a nightlies folder option

you should be able to, i have been dirty flashing it for a min, its been awesome since i dont have to reload anything(contacts, sms/mms, call history, etc..)the way i do it, i download the update over the OTA when im not near a pc, and i dont use the OTA app to install, i instead reboot into recovery locate the OTA Updater Folder, file that zip file & install it from recovery and clear cache :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sweetfish:
I'm on 4.8 and it crashes.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] zeppelinrox:
I've posted the latest modded services.jar if anybody wants to test it.

It has a couple of big changes... I think the prevention of server apps from getting the "worstType" label will go a long way to preventing app reloads. (This code isn't in pre-ICS roms)

But I don't know for sure until ya test it out ;)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kbrn:
I been using 5.3 for a few hours and so far so good I have to go on a trip to México tomorrow and I hope I get some LTE signal at the airport in Houston lol.. I never used dropbox linked to my gallery but just to see if I also had that bug I tried it and yes it crashes the gallery app.

Mms, sms and phone works great. Every other app I have used also works fine.

Thanks Mikey!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CheriePie:
yeah I don't use the feature often enough to know when it crept in. Last time I used it I was still on stock ROM, before I finally jumped over to MeanROM at 4.8. But it could've even been before the 2.13 update I last used it. As others have already said, I don't think it's urgent enough to make an immediate fix, just something to put into the next update, or next nightly to test it.

Funny though that someone on 4.9 said it worked okay and someone on 4.8 said it crashed. Hmmm...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] warmachine00:
mikey a few things:

I was ecstatic to see that 5.1 had "tv out fixed" listed as one of the changes. I mentioned it a few pages back around 4.8/9 and no one seemed to know what caused it. that's the second time you directly added/fixed something in the rom I specifically asked for. I don't know where else you could find support like that. where do I donate?

that being said, video out still wont work for me after dirty flashing up to 5.3.

I have however flashed with twrp 2.2.2.0, so I'm going to upgrade to the most recent version, do a fullback up, wipe, and try again.

I'm also going to try it after the wipe and before I install meanrom, to see if it works in stock, just to remove the phone port or dock being 'bad' as a possibility. If it works in stock, but not in meanrom, we can assume it's something in the rom.

---------- Post added at 12:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:42 AM ----------

To all my fellow flashers, if your SMS / History are important, there are apps to back that up between flashes. I would always recommend to expect the worst but hope for the best. Dirty flashes can potentially screw up your data and of course a clean flash wipes all. So protect that data if it's important to you.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lilbeast:
quick question. How do we use or set the DSP manager to be ur audio enhancer because every time I go into headset and set equalizer it doesn't affect the music??? even when I set beats to off
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
The Dropbox app was updated about a week ago. It's also possible that there's a bug in the most recent Dropbox.apk that is causing this. Depending on how you go back to 4.8 or 4.9 and whether you restore a backup or install the old rom, and whether or not you took the Dropbox update from Google Play, you could end up with either result on either version.

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rabid platypus:
I think I'm going to stick with 4.9 for the time being. The change log doesn't have any features that entice me. My phone is working perfectly, and 5.3 fixing the bugs from 5.0-5.2 scare me at the moment.

Anyone else sticking with 4.9 for now?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] babyschmoof:
I actually get an empty folder when I try this. On the plus side, no FC.

---------- Post added at 03:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:59 AM ----------

I think you are safe with 5.3. It has been very stable. A few very minor issues, but none that would prevent you making this your daily driver.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DJHUSH:

Negative. 4.9 is slick but I've been eager to have my app associations fixed. The people that continuously upgrade help find bugs. It would be extremely time consuming to do full testing on every version.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gtownie:
Mikey, any interest in getting group sms to work in meanrom? It works on iphone and blackberry but android separates the messages. For example, if an iphone person sends a sms to a group, anyone with iphone responds to the whole group, while android phones only reply to sender.

There are threads all around about how to port this to android, just wondering if you've taken a look at them. This feature is touted by gosms and handcent (I use go) but it would be great to have it native.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gtownie:
Maybe I'm one of the few, but my group messages are with folks I know, generally about plans for the weekend or upcoming events. How often are you in a group sms chat with people you don't know? If that's the case, you can just reply to sender anyway.

My friend has the OG Evo and hers does this for some reason. She hates it. Even my friends who own iphones don't like this feature.

That actually makes allot of sense. I keep a Dropbox folder of browser bookmarks so i can access them from anywhere. I used to be able to launch them from my phone with no problem. But now, i get a "dropbox has stopped responding" or something like that. So the theory of the dropbox upgrade fracking itself up could well be the problem.:confused:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Thanks. I snagged your MyDropbox.apk and it does fix the FC for me. I've got one I can share with you too. I just fixed Mms.apk so that you no longer get a FC when deleting multiple drafts. Feel free to snag my Mms.apk in the upcoming 5.4 (uploading now) or better yet, since we all have modded Mms.apk to our liking, take the attached DeleteMessageTask$1.smali and stuff it in com/android/mms/task in your own Mms.apk, recompile, and you're good to go. No more FC when trying to delete multiple drafts and I can now go back to using the 2.13 Mms.apk instead of the one from the One X.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fifedogg:
Mikey just curious why you keep releasing final Rom's with lots of bugs in them rather than trying this stuff on the nightlies. It's just a pain sometimes to download one just to download 2 more updates within a day. I have to update over 3g network so you can imagine how long this takes per rom download. I purposely stay away from the nightlies to not deal with the bugs.

Please don't take this with any disrespect, I love your Rom and all the work you do.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] crown drinker:
Not from what I've seen. I've never seen the option for reply all on a text message. On the iphone if you send a mass tex,t anyone who replies directly to that text replies to everyone. You have to start a new text with them if you don't want everyone to see your reply. Now I've never played with the phone enough to see if there's a way to unsubscribe from the texts or something so you don't get everybodies reply.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Already went through that yesterday. Once something creeps into the finals, I will work hard to get it fixed quickly. Sometimes that means several versions. By the way, that mentality of staying away from the nightlies is the very reason the nightlies don't work and is one reason why this got into the finals: they just aren't being utilized. I only have a few people here who I am thankful for that test those nightlies. The rest just sit back and wait for others to do the testing. If you have no wifi network and you have to download with 3g, why don't you take a few minutes and read the last couple of pages here when something gets released?

I'd love to see t his myself. I use group text messages often with the members of my dance troupe so that we can communicate more efficiently before a performance. For now, I can usually tell it's a group message because it comes in as an MMS, and then I just click on the message to choose reply all, but it would be so much easier to just reply to them that way by default if that's how it came in. (I don't text with strangers. My mommy always told me not to. ;)
