the baseland is the newest radio that is currently out. you know the kernel installed if you can boot into the rom. if it didnt work the rom probably wouldnt boot up
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Looking at it now.

That's a little much for me. I looked at this and it changes sound drivers, config files, and dozens of libs. Looks great but with that many files being updated, I wouldn't want to deal with the potential problems of porting a One X mod over and the trouble that might cause. I prefer to keep things as close to stock as possible and just open up the options that HTC has "hidden". Lyapota has a nice sound mod that I'm working on porting. It'll at least give us Beats plus some EQ selections without having to change the underbelly of the whole sound framework.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wwjoshdew:
Alright, so (WITH S-OFF) I update my radios, then immediately jump into recovery and apply the latest MeanROM? Or let it boot first... Then NEVER go back to the older firmware. Since I can update my radios and everything (flashing the one without the latest hboot), then have MeanROM 4.0. If it's as fast an awesome as everyone says, it might get me to stop using THIS PHONE! :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] deneid310:
gotcha thank you
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bog3nator:
it really doesnt matter in what order you update your firmware in...and YES you are correct NEVER downgrade your firmware...but to be safe you can update your firmware boot up real fast then boot into recovery and flash meanrom

edit: so there is no confusion on the update of firmware i meant, rom first or firmware first...it doesnt matter

So I finally got on the Rom train and so far so good.. however it does seem my battery is draining faster.. is there something I can do to increase bat life?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kilokk:
You are correct, ROM Cleaner by default removes it, but you can set it to leave it in if you want. You just insert the hash infront of it and it won't be touched...like so... First image(Before) shows ROM Cleaner removing it, the second image(After) shows the user requesting to keep it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tybo31316:
You have to let the Rom settle. After a few battery cycles you'll notice increased battery life.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
I'm leavin' it the frick alone. :D It works and is solid, so you take the pieces that work and put them together. FWIW, some of the stuff on the One X Sense 4.1 release works better than our 2.13 release. Their Phone.apk doesn't have the contact ringer bug for example. Can't use it because theirs isn't designed for the Sprint network... but some apk's you can!

I think what you need to know is that yes, TWRP restore of data is not additive. It reformats and takes your data partition back to how it was when you backed it up. Really, whether you restore data before or after you flash the ROM, you're essentially doing a dirty wipe the hard way either way. That's the point I was trying to make yesterday. The ROM already reformats and wipes the system partition clean on every install, so when you restore data, you're just doing a dirty wipe the hard way and potentially making more trouble for yourself than doing a dirty wipe.

The things that were moved from system to data are Facebook, Google Play Movies and Play Music.

Hey Josh, have you tried the USB dongle that is in your S3 video the the Evo LTE?? I was curious to know if it worked with our phone or not. That would be a neat addition to our phone.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kilokk:
Almost exactly what I said..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kf2m:
LOL ok... The reason why I mentioned it is that it caused a mess in the Nuker of my Kitchen after changing any of the status bar icons for either battery or signal. Got FC's with SystemUI on bootup, and whenever I did a long press on the menu key. At first I thought it was the kitchen since I did some work on it. So I did a comparison between the v39, and v40 files. Noticed a bunch of new folders. Then noticed that v40s' file was uncompressed compared to v39s'. IIRC the SystemUI file can only be up to a certain size before things go awry (from messing with the UOTK on the OG Evo). So after many edits, and pushing SystemUI many times my solution was to extract the contents of SystemUI then re-archiving it with normal compression. After doing that everything cooks, and works. Just an FYI.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ReyPaez:
Mikey is the Music app based off 2.13.651.1 or 1.22.651.3?

and thanks man...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
I think that size limitation must be a limitation of the kitchen (maybe that's what you were saying). I have no problem with it but I don't use any kitchens... I cook up everything the hard way: manually. ;) Decompressing it saves quite a bit of memory on boot.

I believe it's based on the One X Sense 4.1 ROM: the One X's 2.17. The music app is one of the things that interchanges nicely between the One X and ELTE.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RyanInAj:
Beautiful!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kf2m:
Actually no. I was referring to the size of the apk file itself. All the kitchen does when icons are being replaced in SystemUI is just overwriting the existing icons with mine with 7zip. All is kitchen does is automate via a batchfile all the CLI typing. IIRC there was a discussion in the UOTK thread awhile back about memory allocation in respect to the size of SystemUI.apk within Sense. Or at least I think that was where I remember reading about that. The simple replacement of an icon with SystemUI.apk shouldn't cause it to abend.

Here is my SystemUI.apk that is modded, and works on v40 if you'd like to take a look. Now bear in mind I strip as much of Sense as possible, and use Holo as my launcher. So it may behave differently with a stock Rosie.

To anyone who wants more options for quick settings, you can use power toggles or widgetsoid. I like widgetsoid and have it set up like this.

Was on 3.3, did a nandroid, factory reset, then wiped cache, dalvik and system and did the 4.0 install. Didn't seem any longer than normal and didnt hang on installing kernel for more than a minute and don't recall the MeanROM screen freezing or a reboot. I verified the md5 before copying to phone as well. Do I need to reflash or am I good? Phone seems fine so far.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Haven't heard of any issues with size affecting APK's. Lots of people decompress the entire apk/jar repository with no issues. Are you sure you didn't do something like allow it to compress when you replaced the PNG files... so you had a folder full of uncompressed PNG's and a few there were compressed? That could cause a problem.

One of my friends has been bugging me about the facebook pictures not showing up in handscent for a long time.

Thank you for posting that I didn't know that was out there.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kusanagi-sama:
Honestly, the only gripe I have about this ROM is that if you let the battery fully discharge and the phone turns off, it seems to screw something up.

Last time, on the 1.22 based MeanROM, I let the battery die, and when I went to turn it back on, it got stuck at the boot animation. Had to reflash the ROM in that instance.

Yesterday, my battery died, and when I recharged my phone and turned it on, none of my mp3 ringers worked (It didn't even show them in the sounds), and it also had problems with the screen not wanting to turn off. Also, trying to use the system app the clears app cache and whatnot would force close if I tried to use it. This was MeanROM 3.9. Flashed 4.0 and everything is fine now.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kilokk:
Gotta be honest on this one... I really don't remember LOL. I know I came across it when I was first tying out bartito's HD Contacts Photos which you can find in the playstore, he has a thread as well under Android Development and Hacking.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SweepinJR:
Happened to me on 3.3 too, phone died during a camping trip sitting in my bag, and I had the exact same issue.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kf2m:
I wish it where that issue (which is why I batch everything). I made sure that compression was off/store-only. Now I could be wrong with the size question. But I've been doing this since v02 without a problem. v39 was the last release to not have a problem. I'm no Dev, or a Coder. I just have a little hack batchfile (actually kinda big now) that I use to save me some time tweaking a ROM to my liking before flashing it. Plus I share it for anyone to use. Just analyzing what happened to a process that had been working fine all along then suddenly "breaks". Just letting you know of an observation I made. More than likely it will affect someone who may theme their ROM than the average user.

BTW you still have the most awesome ROM out there.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kusanagi-sama:
It may have been MeanROM 3.3, I don't remember. But I keep the ROM, superwipe and some other files as backup on my external sdcard, just in case.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] drmclove69:
Same happened to me a while back on a different Rom, was tryna recalibrate battery and once it died all my data seemed to be wiped as my home screens were all blank and after that was really buggy. Was about to do this for this Rom but good thing you mentioned same thing happens. Was just at 11% :s
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Already did that. I took them out of the hide list in default.xml but you've probably got to do a fresh wipe to see them.

P.S. Anybody else having trouble connecting to Android File Host? It says it can't find the server here... and I'm just about ready to upload 4.1. :(

Similar issue here. I usually pull the SystemUI, drop a few of my favorite icons in there, and put it back into the rom before flashing. Been doing it across all versions and roms since my og evo days.

As soon as I did it with Mean 4.0, on the first boot, I'll get a SystemUI FC. I just say ok, and the notification bar will come up in a few seconds (i assume SystemUI restarts), then all is good.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kf2m:
Pretty much the same thing. Just that I have a batch file doing the typing for me. My solution was to extract SystemUI.apk to a folder preserving all the paths. Then re-archiving it with compression. So far 13 hours without an FC, and Menu/Recent Apps works.

hey mikey i see that u added the new camera 4.5, does urs have the sound off?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Yeah, 4.1 is ready. I made a change that may reduce the dialer-on-boot thing even further. So if you're one of the people who has been seeing that (dialer showing up on boot), let me know if 4.1 fixes it or makes it better. I still doubt there's any way to fix it completely, but anything it possible. I just want to know if anyone sees the dialer on booting 4.1.

Don't know what to tell you. There's definitely nothing wrong with the SystemUI that's in the ROM. It's a simple mx0 zipaligned apk. I don't think size is an issue either because SystemUI is relatively small. SystemUI is only 8.8 MB uncompressed. Look at framework-res.apk at 14 MB and Settings.apk at 17 MB. Both of those are uncompressed and zipaligned the same as SystemUI.

I believe you... that you had the problems you said you did. I just don't know where they are coming from. Maybe there's something about an uncompressed apk/jar that prevents it from being modified without being re-signed afterward.

Yes. I added my own tweaks like sound off, ISO 1250, and fixed the focus button so that it works with our half press remapped to the search key.

Mike, I would like to personally thank you for all the hard work and dedication to this ROM. My phone would never run like this, if left to the HTC and Sprint devs.

You have unlocked so much potential out of an already great phone. Other than donating more to you, this is the best I can do to ensure that you have my utmost respect, and look forward to following this ROM from now on.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fgr:
A little more info on The SystemUI force close:

I did my usual routine, pull SystemUI, drop a few pngs in it, put back in rom and flash (I also drop some sound files in the notifications and my own boot up and down animations).

First boot, SystemUI FC.

Anytime I do recent apps: SystemUI force close.

I rarely use the recent apps, the only reason I noticed it was I chose to do a clean install this time and hadn't switched the button to short press menu, long press recent apps yet.

This is not an issue that bothers me much. I like this rom to much to worry about it. If it does become a problem, I can always just use the "stock theme".

Also, SystemUI always comes back up in a few seconds (notification bar re-appears) and no issues unless I try to use recent apps.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AngelofChaos:
something I have been noticing and I don't know if anybody else has experienced this, but whenever I make a call out and put the phone to my ear I get this strange light tapping noise coming from within the top speaker, nobody else can hear it on their end. Never heard it until just recently, not sure if it has anything to do with the proximity sensor or what. I've tried resetting it and it just stays, thinking it has to be some sort of hardware issue.
