Unfortunately you have to find your own widgets for Nova, and probably others. I have never liked the stock flip clock of Sense and had most of the other widgets already, like Beautiful Widgets. I also did not ever use the full screen widgets like the contacts, movies, bookmarks, etc. so do not really miss them.

So you will have to replace the functionality you are missing. One tip, I discovered Bob Clock and like it for a desktop clock, it is free and simple to set up.

I need some recommendations and help. After having this phone since pre order, my screen cracked today. Insurance is sending me a new phone which will have the latest hboot. I read that any hboot can be downgraded. Has anyone achieved it with the latest? Can I also be pointed in the right direction for the best instructions?

Since I have to send this phone back, can I just run a single file from a desktop to get it to stock? If so, which file is the best to run?

I'm crushed, but I don't want to give up this Rom. Just very nervous about the process, since it's so new!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] acuzerfdw:
Yeah, that's one thing I noticed too, but I really don't use widgets so I didn't think much of it. I did want the stock looking clock widget so I use Beautiful Widgets for that. The only other widget that I use is Calendar widget so I better see if there's anything I can use for that.

It's still a very strong launcher and I like it very much!

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sabbys:
The MeanRom folder is always included in the package. Open the zip and it is under the "SD Card" folder. So whatever version of the rom/folder you want, just re-download it.

I have no plans to fool with any more multitasking tweaks. They were backed out many versions ago and I use my own tweaks (the no-kill list). Honestly, they're more trouble than they're worth and the latest ones, from what I understand, interfere with the fapple mod.

Anybody else not seeing app associations in the settings menu? Ive done two full wipe installs and its not showing up?? Any ideas?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sqeet:
This was removed by Mikey (The FAPPLE updates you're seeing in the threads) - one of the feature updates in the 5.x series. Now, we're back to removing the app defaults in the Settings -> Applications menu. And you can then set the defaults in the pop-up box you get when you select certain actions.

In case anyone here is having a problem with their lockscreen shortcuts, I found my answer here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1673680

The Sense lockscreen gets its shortcuts from the Sense launcher. I use Nova launcher so I had to switch back to Sense launcher to update the shortcuts.

My problem had nothing to do with MeanROM.

They should have a much refined method soon, in the mean while, you can just run regawmod to root and then install MeanRom. You just have to deal with the hassles of being s-on until you're ready to make the jump to s-off again.

Hey Mickey,

Not sure if this is am issue with the ROM or not but I am not getting notifications for Words With Friends. I am running version 5.3. It also seems like other notifications (mostly facebook) aren't coming in right but I can't confirm any other than Words. I am going to install 5.5 soon to see if that fixes anything.

Any other ideas?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ekz13:
no, I can't get it to come up directly on the pull down, I remember one of the versions of android or something had the option to "show quick settings when there is no notifications" can't seem to find it anymore..

So I think I misunderstood the update on 5.5 but figured I'd clarify and see if this is what was intended.

If I click on a link, for example, and choose a browser as my default, it no longer asks me unless I clear defaults. However, if I reboot my phone, all of those defaults are now being cleared and then it asks me all over again. Is this what was intended? I would hope not because most of these actions I want to just choose and let it be. While I don't reboot all the time, I do it enough that this would be annoying.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lostsoul77:
Is there a way to make the OTA Updater for Meanrom download while background. I have to leave it in the downloading screen to get updates, if I leave that screen to answer a call, text, etc...the download has to start all over again.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] EVOuser94:
I usually just dl updates at night while I'm sleeping, then flash in the morning, in my no call times :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
No. The ROM itself doesn't do that. Do you have any "icing" installed on top of the ROM? The problem in 5.4 (and fapple v1-v3) is the opposite. If you cleared the Mail app because you wanted "Complete action using" to come up each time you click a mail link, it would come up until you reboot. Then when you reboot, it would automatically choose the stock mail app for you and you would no longer get the dialog. It works right in 5.5: the dialog comes up after you clear defaults until you check the box to set the default. Then it never comes up again (until you clear defaults again). So if you are getting what you say above: my only guess is that you've installed something that broke it.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Not having that problem on 5.5, but if you want to experiment a little and you are comfortable with adb, you could pull services.jar and framework.jar out of 4.9 and push them one at a time. Push framework.jar first and see if that fixes it. Then if that didn't work, push services.jar and see if that fixes it. The code that was changed really has nothing to do with bluetooth so I'm thinking it's probably not the fapple mod but the above restoring of framework.jar and services.jar from 4.9 would settle that debate.

Thanks,

It seems my DSP Manager app doesn't work, or maybe it's always been like this. When I try and put an EQ setting on the Phone Speaker output, nothing happens. I don't need/use DSP Manager for my headphone output, I'm happy with one of the Beats settings but I was trying to boost the overall volume of the phone speaker.

Lock Screen

Hey guys. I just updated to 5.5 from 5.4 and now I have a strange lock screen. To update I wiped data and system and then did the 5.5 install and then restored data from a nandroid backup of 5.4.

Anyone having an issue with SD cache size not sticking when adjusted in Android tuner/system tuner? Mine goes away upon rebooting.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Any time you run themes or other mods, you risk breaking something. My suggestion is to do a full wipe, install 5.5, and leave it alone. If you want the ROM to run trouble free, you really need to install it and not tweak it. I can only support the ROM and when I hear things like this, that I know are not a ROM issue, I'm going to suspect whatever else you are installing just because I know that's not an issue with this ROM. I'm not saying it's <insert theme/mod here>'s fault but I can only tell you that I can't support "external" mods and if you're doing anything over and above just installing the ROM, I'm going to suspect that every time. It's definitely guilty until proven innocent if you take a screwdriver and wrench to the ROM. :)

Hello,

I dirty flashed 5.5 from 5.4 yesterday and it was running great until like an hour ago. I recieved a notification and when i tried to unlock the phone ( default lock screen, no password or nothing) the phone locked up and after like 7-10 secods it rebooted, it gets as far as to the rolling mean rom ics screen and then it locks up and after a couple of seconds reboots again.

I Booted the phone into recovery and wiped cache and dalvik and tried booting into android again and by it goes all the way up to the Updating android apps message and when its done doing so its back to the reboot loop.

I booted into recovery again and this time tried a factory reset and i was able to get the phone boot back into android and then restored system settings and apps with TB but after like an hour or so, while using facebook, the locked up and again got stuck on a reboot loop.

I booted into recovery yet again and did another factory reset and this time i did not use TB to restore anything. I let the phone sync all the apps from Google play and while setting my preferences the phone locked up again and now its stuck on a reboot loop yet again.

First of all I have to say that I love this ROM and all the features it has. Great work Mike. Keep doing what you do

Just got my HTC EVO LTE flashed/rooted from a guy on craigslist. ( Took him 2 hours:( ). Every thing seems to be working fine with Google now and everything. But when i got home and Went into the ES file explorer to activate the auto rotate tweak an remap menu button but they are missing.

After looking at a Youtube video i realized all of my zips are diffrent from the guy in the Video. I checked and it is running the 5.5 version of this ROM. The zips that are under Mean ROM are 4x5 rosie,kbd-notify-off,kernel-mean-1728, kernel-mean-1809, kernel stock, no camera-search, no camera-wake, screen on-sms, stock-auto-brightness and stock haptic.

I have none of the zips that are on the MeanRom file that dude has in the Youtube Video. Any help would you guys and gals can provide would be greatly appreciated. Loving the new battery percent circle meter.

Oh yell. I went into recovery and wiped everything and flashed this ROM with the same results happening. Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
