Lets be honest though. That's par for the course for just about any corporation these days. People seem to just accept crappy service because that's all you can get any more.

Can't be the ROM. The radios control that and signal strength isn't something the ROM can affect at all. If you call sprint, I bet they can look it up and they'll find that there's trouble ticket for a tower in your area.

I had the same problem. I had to do a full wipe, factory reset/fresh install of 3.1. And if u use TB only reinstall apps without data
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Pity410:
I've noticed a couple problems since upgrading to 3.1 (prior i was running 1.7). Both times this has happened it has been with google apps. First time was with the stock browser I opened it up and got nothing but a white screen after a few seconds a popup came up saying that he app wasn't responding and asked if I wanted to close the app. This same thing just happened with the Maps app. After a reboot it fixed the problem both times.

This happens to me once in a while lately with gmail. I have to reboot to fix it.

I take it that people with 2+ days of battery life are using their phone solely as a clock, checking the time here and there.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:
That's a safe assumption. You notice most who claim battery life, rarely show what there screen on time is. :rolleyes:

Im a Radioshack manager that sales all carriers in sf bay area. I received an email mentioning because of tower updates there were going to be mishaps and things not working correctly. That it could last 2-3weeks so that could be something
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lilbitz_1018:
Hmm I got 2 days worth of battery because I don't sit and stare at my phone lolol there's better things to do....sometimes. I just forgot to post my screen on time but obviously I wouldnt let it show the percentage if I were claiming to have a 'secret' :p
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
Please post your screen on time or expand the view to show screen on, vs everything else.

That doesn't really say much. :)

Yea, I mean with all the features of the evo 4g lte(a smartphone with a 4.7" screen and HD picture), why would anyone be staring at it?

Lol ok let's not get this going where it seems to be going. I am a heavy phone user. I did baby it to see how long it would last in comparison to previous version but I wasn't trying to impress anyone or make it seem like I'm doing something special.

I'm getting decent screen on time with decent battery life :highfive:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cubbieswin:
Under quick settings, you are able to turn WiFi and mobile network off and on. Should both of these be enabled at the same time? Under stock, when I turned on WiFi, I believe mobile network was automatically turned off.

I have a couple questions/issues to report. I installed this ROM after a factory reset wipe using TWRP.

What do people mean by the ROM "settling in" in regards to battery life? My battery life has been very poor so far.

Another issue has been with how sluggish my phone has been. Whatever app I am using can just freeze for a few seconds and then it starts working. Using the Chrome browser and trying to scroll, the browser may just sit there not responding.

I'm running the newest version if the ROM.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] digiblur:
Same thing here. The wife's s3 had the issue a few days ago of double text and delayed text. My EVO was fine. Same account same location.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
Yes you are! Thanks for sharing pertinent information. :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sebast1an09:
The "settling in" part I think of it as new pair of shoes. It takes a day or two to break in and those couple of days they can be a little uncomfortable but afterwards they feel comfty. After a few days your battery life should improve significantly, depending on what type of user. Regardless it'll last you longer than what it is lasting you now.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] joebarkho:
This rom has always gotten me great battery life, but with the recent update..

The Dark Knight Rises game has been playing very, very, very laggy. I can't even explain how laggy it can get, it's not playable and things dont render properly. I swore by this rom until I noticed this after getting the game. I'm on liquidsmooth now and its fine. Any idea why the lag?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Majin101:
how r u playing dark knight rises ?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] joebarkho:
Well I changed my build prop to get the spiderman game. When they updated it (after I beat it) the controls disappeared so I let them know and after a few emails they sent me a link for batman as a direct download. But just so damn laggy. It's only 5 bucks I think now.. Worth it. Pretty good free roaming game. Spiderman was good too.

But what's with this lag!

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SilentSummer:
I was running Viper4G ROM and wiped and flashed this ROM to try it out.

All my apps were installed as well as all my email accounts were already there on MeanROM.

Did I do a bad wipe or this something new? Never had all my apps/accounts restore upon flashing a new rom.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
Mine does the same I think it's backed up to Google :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SilentSummer:
That's the thing. I unchecked "Back up my settings" on Viper's ROM and it's currently unchecked as well.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] captain008:
Hey guys I first want to say that I love this rom. With that in mind I just have one question. On the old EVO and 3D there was the option to long press the menu button and the keyboard would come up. Is this option available on the LTE, or is there a way to get it. Many thanks in advance.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] EvilTodd:
After flashing 3.1, on restarts I am getting an OTA update notification asking me if I want to "upgrade" to 3.0 even though the information clearly shows I am on 3.1. Is this happening to anyone else? No, I haven't done a complete wipe yet, nor will I to alleviate this problem. Just wondered if there was a quick fix, otherwise I'll live with it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] captain008:
Before you flashed the rom did you do a full wipe/factory reset and clear the cache? I had this same problem on another rom type.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wwjoshdew:
I don't mean to sound like a prick, but search the thread man...

There are several other posts about it as well.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] crzycrkr:
You don't need to do a full wipe to solve that. The answer is a few pages back, but if i recall correctly its as simple as wiping the cache and data for the OTA program
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
Navigate to settings>OTA Updater clear the data
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] EvilTodd:
You're right, I didn't search and you're right to chastise me for it. Thank you sir, may I have another.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
I like it. But... it violates rule 1 of MeanROM: "to be clean: mostly stock...". MeanROM really isn't about mega-customizations. That's one reason it's so stable: because I thoroughly evaluate everything that goes into it and it's impossible to evaluate and keep up to date with the functionality and potential issues WRT such a large tweak repository. You're kinda on your own with those. I think it's just better to start with the most stable base possible and then you can install mods/tweaks like that afterward. That way I don't have to spend my time evaluating each update and potential issue and trying to bake it into the ROM itself: the author of the tweak(s) can do that for the individual tweak.

Make sense?

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wwjoshdew:
...I see what you did there.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
I can't even find this to test it. I search Dark Knight Rises and get a bunch of wallpaper, puzzles, and junk. No games in the $5 range.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrshades812:
The EVO is not on the supported devices list is why. I think some people have downloaded this game on the internet and that's why their may be an issue. :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BTSchnarfy:
That's because it's listed as not compatible with our device. Anyway, it's by Gameloft and it's $6.99.

*edit* mrshades beat me to it. . .
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
Well that's why...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] joebarkho:
I made it so that my device showed as the galaxy nexus and downloaded the game. I returned it for spiderman and played it flawlessly until I beat it. There was an update for spiderman after this and since then the onscreen controls disappeared, which wasn't an uncommon issue. I contacted game loft and they said they can give me another game by them and gave me a list. I chose dark Knight and it was terribly laggy on mean rom. But like I said when I downloaded it from the market it was fine on an older version of mean rom 2.4 or 2.7. With 3.1 I can't play it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] s4audi:

So when i check my storage i see that there is SDCARD1(internal) and i have an SDCARD2(external). SDCARD1 has a folder that says ext-sd which is holding the memory i'm storing in SDCARD2. Is this normal? I though the internal and external sdcard's were two different things? Can someone help me understand what's going on
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DNarsingh:
Its always been like that, its just a short cut to the external card, nothing on card 2 is actually being stored on card 1.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kiit408:
So the fact that the storage shows that's its holding that memory in card1 its really not?

Great Rom

Wanted to post my appreciation for such a great rom and props for pushing out something stable, efficient and very kind to the battery. Quick question, I know you would like to keep this rom as close to stock, but are there any plans to be able and change dpi on this rom?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] edboston:
Correct. With *nix type file systems like Android uses, you can create links. A link makes a directory entry on the storage device but the link tells the file system to look somewhere for the data.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adhusky:
Possible is that we have different device ID than previous mean rom version. Since i noticed that our device id is jewel.

I used root uninstaller to remove Facebook, Sprint Zone, and a couple other apps. (I forgot which ones) Would that explain why I can't use the alarm function anymore?

Make sure you are on the newest version of TWRP (2.2.1). I read that a lot of issues flashing the ROM could be because of an older version of TWRP.

Hey Mike (and all),

Could you take a look at my last post? I don't want clutter the thread posting it again but can if it makes it easier.

I have been having poor battery life compared to stock. I'm not sure why but I can just watch my battery drain while doing normal activities.

I've also been having a bad problem with the phone just freezing for a few seconds and finally carrying out the actions. I can literally touch the screen in several locations and watch my phone process the touches after a few seconds.

It seems to be better after a reboot and gets progressively worse the longer the phone has been in use. Could there be a memory leak or bad task management going on?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CannibalAngel:
Are you overclocked or did you apply any tweaks/themes to the ROM?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mreniigma:
I'm not thrilled with the dock background disappearing with the 3.1 update. Any way to tweak this or make it optional? Also, may be related but resizing widgets isn't working well either. I resize the calender widget to 4x2 and the try and put the chrome bookmark widgets at 2x3 over it and they clash and melt into each other.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Please see post 3 about how to report battery life here. There are too many variables at work to determine anything about battery or performance with just a thumbs up or down or a screen shot of battery life. I need more info: what I need is outlined in post 3.

Where ya been? That's been transparent since before 2.0 (1.93 to be exact). The transparent dock works in conjunction with the 4x5 Rosie. If you want the gray background/old dock, you'll need to flash the 4x4 Rosie. 4x5 needs more space and doesn't work properly with the gray placard behind the dock icons.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
New "sticky settings": Instead of editing /system/etc/init.qcom.post_boot.sh, you can put the variable assignments in /data/MeanROM.opt and those settings will stick through dirty flashes (of updated ROM versions). For this reason, if you want to change the overclocking or performance/battery settings, it is a good idea to flash the 1.7 Ghz flash in /sdcard/MeanROM-ICS and then look at the /data/MeanROM.opt file that is created. You'll see that OVERCLOCK=7 is in that file and that setting will stick even if you flash a new version of the ROM. Similarly, you can add a second line that says PERFORMANCE_OR_BATTERY="PERFORMANCE" and that too will stick through dirty flashes. Of course, this means you can modify the parameters that are used in init.qcom.post_boot.sh once and not have to keep changing them with each new version of the ROM! Just make sure that the /data/MeanROM.opt file maintains permissions of rwx-r-x-r-x (755).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lilxdavidx:
Why It Is a Good Idea To Flash 1.7
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
go into twrp and flash the 1.7 zip and it will create the /data/MeanROM.opt you need then you can modify it to the setting you want example OVERCLOCK=7 will have you OC'ed at 1.7

Yeah, I read that. I use the performance /battery settings and can edit for overclock but there's nothing in there about minfree
