Just ran AnTuTu and Quadrant to see what it looks like on 3.5 Release.

AnTuTu: 8105 @ 1.512GHz (I have a slower SD card, so there is a slight bottleneck there)

Quadrant: 5817 on Stock Kernel..

I'm stoked!!!! What a great update this is. Stock Kernel, Stock Speeds, but faster performance than the O/C'ed versions... Our phones are finally getting a chance to work like they are supposed to. Looks like HTC and Mikey are removing the bottlenecks that have kept our phones performance lack-luster, compared to what the hardware can do.

I'm a "Meanie" until the end!!! Awesome combination...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bsims85:
Wow...this rom is super smooth.

I saw a few people asking about the 3-dot menu. If you go into Settings>Display,Gestures, & Buttons, there is an option to remap the "recent apps" soft key. Problem solved....
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kilokk:
I didn't have that issue when I went to 3.5.... and that was after a full wipe and install.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cabbieBot:
3.5 is awesome, I love my phone again. I hope QuickSettings makes it in soon.

For those using ROMCleaner, I'm attaching what I use for a user script. I added in SprintZone, HTCBeatsNotify (hate the icon), Voicemail (I use google voice), Soundhound Freemium (i have the infinity), TuneIn (i have the pro) to the list to be cleaned in addition to enabling a lot of the languages that were commented out.

If anyone has suggestions about other Sprint or HTC bloat that can be safely removed from the phone and added to this script, please post what it is and the .apk name. I'm getting between 130 and 230 MB free memory with this and wouldn't mind getting more. :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] seewhyphotos:
Is there any chance of introducing problems with removing some of these items? I wouldn't mind getting rid of a bunch of bloat, but don't want to impact the ROM, or any of the functions of the phone.

Just curious...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
None at all with a default rom cleaner txt file and with the custom one its pretty straight forward. Look into, but I definitely recommend
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] travisw0204:
I did the same and I actually wiped Cache, Dalvik Cache, Factory Reset and System all 4 times each. The words were all jumbled up after I did that so I attributed the issue to the rom itself since I fully wiped everything and started with a clean slate. I flashed my backup of 3.4 and the issue is gone. I'll just stick to this one until that issue is resolved.

so i cleaned installed 3.5 beta 2 last night, then updated today to 3.5, how come the mean ics folder is not flashing for me?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] odawg1022:
Mikey said that he didn't make it auto flash but he will on the next one.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bog3nator:
ok cool that makes me feel better. all i needed was the 4x4 rosie and i got it from the beta 2 thanks!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cabbieBot:
This.

Use the default your first time with ROM Cleaner if you aren't sure about it, thats what I did. After that, though, I went in and added the apps to the user script that I always went in with TiBu and uninstalled anyway (voicemail, sprint zone, etc). The ROMCleaner devs had me test the addition of the ones I added before they add it to the universal default script, and everything is working fine for me so far on 3.5. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=30941023
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bog3nator:
so i flashed mean rom 3.5 with its default settings and scored a 5436!

i then changed the scheduler from noop to deadline and left everything else the same and got 6039!!!!! the first time i ever broke 6k and i am stock, cant wait to see what happens soon!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] FlowingAway:
Quick question about 3.5. I know Mikey updated the ROM to the 2.13 base, but what about the kernel?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Adebayo88:
Ok! That's what I like to see. What's your awake time?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] digiblur:
Just delete the apk files from the zip before you flash. I made a script that deletes a ton of apk files from the zip of each mean rom before I flash. I delete just about any app that can be obtained from the market.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bog3nator:
it is the new stock kernel, which is alot better then the stock kernel from the old base. and i scored 6k at stock everything. i couldnt get to 6k with a modified kernel, this makes me real excited to see what this phone can do now!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] surmanm:
sorry for the noob question what am i missing ? flashing new v3.5 rom over 3.4 keep getting black screen after reboot. never had any problems before flashing previous versions. did a full wipe and still black screen after htc slash screen

s-on

hboot 1.15
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jizital:
Can i flash the recent apps button to menu zip without any problems on 3.5?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cjrdriven:
Did you flash firmware first?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chuckhriczko:
I'm getting the same thing. Booted into the rom the first time no problem. Then I flashed the battery zip, the overclock off zip and the remap right button to menu zip and when trying to reboot, I get the soft keys flashing. If I hold in the power button for 10 seconds the lights stop flashing and it will load the HTC screen but it just stops and screen shuts off. No charging light until I held the power button in for 60 seconds. Then the charging light comes on but nothing else. All I did was flash those zips. That wouldn't brick the phone would it? I'm S-ON btw.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cjrdriven:
Go under settings, Display,gestures & buttons. You can change the option there.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kenpen:
Would like to get help some one who was hopefully HTC unlocked s-on,hboot 1.12... To pls tell me how they went on to 3.5 in a noobish way.

I can not do th s-off right now..computer in shop
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] surmanm:
No, i just flashed the ics_3.5.zip file that i downloaded from OTA updater like i usually do. what firmware was i supposed to flash

thx for the advice in advance.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] odawg1022:
If you go to settings > display, buttons, gestures. under the buttons there is an option to change the recent apps button to menu.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Working on it now but haven't cracked it yet. For now, it's a tradeoff that we have to live with, or flash the 4x4 in the ROM zip. BTW, where did you get your skull background? I like.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] imex99:
I flashed the radio, should I flash anything else? I'm only HTC dev unlocked...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] crzycrkr:
Now this is how I expected this phone to run when i bought it. Virtually no stuttering or lag with 3.5. Can't even imagine what it will be like with OC. I guess the rumor about 4.0.4 giving a boost to the UI was true. So happy with this phone right now.

Don't think you should be flashing any of those with the new base.

Well I read NOWHERE where it said such a thing. Does anyone know if I bricked the phone or if there's any way to fix it?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
I'd rather have it automated as opposed to manually removing them on each update (I install EVERY update). Rom Cleaner also puts all my apps back on with a clean install so all I have to do is restore apps data with tibu

I have been trying to get help since yesterday and nothing...:(
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] crzycrkr:
I could be wrong, but flashing the OC off zip when we don't have OC doesn't make sense to me. I think I read something about the battery zips in the last 12 hours also.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Wildcard50:
Really short on time. I did OTA and flashed zips that I guess aren't for this new kernal. Now I can't get passed the HTC splash screen. I'm ****ed aren't I?

Does the 3.5 ROM not include the MeanRom-ICS tweaks folder on the internal sd card? I installed and flashed a couple times and haven't seen it. Anyone have suggestions?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kevinsturf:
So if I'm S-ON with latest hboot 1.15 running MeanRom 3.4, I can still flash this like how I usually would right? Or would I have to make sure to flash the updated boot.img before since the Evilz kernel might not work on it, correct?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] odawg1022:
Inside the rom there is a sdcard folder. Mike didnt set it to auto install. The only flash inside the folder right now is a 4x4 rosie, but again you have to get it out of the rom for 3.5 he will make it auto install on 3.6
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
Those of you that are s-on and DONT have hboot 1.12 you can't update the firmware bits and can't get the kernel which is why there is the issue with black screen. The phone simply can't boot without the kernel. Best bet is to use 3.4 or try flash image gui while booted into 3.4 then immediately flash 3.5. There are 2 potential problems with that method.. 1. Flash image gui might not work with the new base (haven't tested it) 2. If it does you still will have the old keys (firmware)

I'm s-off so I can't help more than speculation, maybe someone more knowledgeable can chime in
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Wildcard50:
Not sure if my brain isn't working because I'm so ticked off right now, but how can I boot into recovery from the phone being off? When I attempt, the buttons flash at me about a half dozen times.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] surmanm:
ok correct me if im wrong reason i am getting black screen after 3.5 flash is because i didn't flash the new 2.13 firmware.

Since i am S-ON hboot 1.15 dev unlocked via regawmod i CAN NOT flash the new 2.13 firmware due to not being s-off which i can not achieve. hence i can no longer use any version of meanRom above 3.4 ??

Thx for the input
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kilokk:
I doubt you are bricked completely... may take some time and patience, but you should be able to recover. Can you boot into bootloader? If you can post the following info:

HBOOT:

RADIO:

Then see if you can get into recovery/TWRP and see what version you are on (Upper right corner...should be v2.2.2.0) report back minion... LOL
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chuckhriczko:
The problem is we can;t even get into the bootloader. All we have to do for the bootloader is hold vol down+power, right? If we could get in there, we'd be fine I'd believe. I was unaware of a kernel change.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bog3nator:
Try a clean install since it is a new base. You may have to flash the kernel separate since you are s-on. But don't quote me on that
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kilokk:
Press and hold power and volume down until the blink and then stop blinking... release power and volume down for a couple of seconds and the press and hold them again until bootloader comes up.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
Just flash the rom like normal. You will still have the old firmware and radio BUT that should not stop you from flashing the rom. Since you are on 1.12 the kernel will flash like normal so the noobish answer, in short, is flash like usual.

S-off as soon as your computer is home and upgrade your firmware and never look back.

---------- Post added at 10:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:01 AM ----------

You have to push the kernel because the old base and new base kernel are different. Again, you will have the old firmware BUT this should not stop you from using the new rom or reaping benefit from the updates.

OMG... :crying: (facepalm)

I JUST DEF BRICKED MY PHONE... In my excitement of a new update for Mean Rom I didnt even take to notice that there was a new base. Im HTC unlocked, So I cant flash the new base, however, I did flash 3.5

BIG MISTAKE!I can boot into bootloader, but cant get anywhere b/c I lazily left the previous PMG375 (however its spelled) on my SD card, and it of course cant be ran b/c Im on HTC unlock.

oh well. lesson learned.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chuckhriczko:
Snap! That got me into the bootloader! From here I should be able to fix this as I just got into recovery. Dude, I owe you... BIG!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Wildcard50:
You are the man!

Now that I'm in bootloader, what should I do? Factory reset?

My hboot is 1.12 and my radio is 1.05.11.0606.

I'm also S-on
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
Get into bootloader then to recovery from there and restore your last NANDROID and start over. Old tweaks are not 100% ready for prime time on the new base.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
Yea then get to recovery if you can. Whenever there's an OTA there will be a new kernel.. And don't worry its not bricked because it turns on, I'm just not sure about how to get you back running. Whether you can or can't get into recovery right now, I'm sure you aren't alone and there will be a fix for it soon enough
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CBRRider:
So i think there needs to be a sticky or something somewhere to give instructions for people like myself that are stuck on HBOOT 1.15 S-ON. I know i can't update my radios but from my understanding, i can update the firmware, kernel and base? Is that all or am i missing anything?

Part of me is thinking that it's probably better to just stick with 3.4 until someone breaks the code and can figure out how to achieve S-OFF with HBOOT 1.15. Just hope that doesn't take months :(
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] elas123:
take out card and put into computer to delete it
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
Anyone soft bricked using trying to update to 3.5 and get the black screen do these steps above and get to recovery then restore your nandroid or flash 3.4

Only kernel and base but the kernel needs to be flashed separately. I agree about a sticky! 3.5 is a huge improvement over 3.4 and on my 3d I ran a new base with old firmware bits for 2 months without a problem. If you happen to get 3.5 running but have radio issues, you can always nandroid back to 3.4

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cruise350:
I don't understand why the hell you people can't read this thread before flashing away. If you are s-on you must take additional steps. If you don't know that by now you should return to stock and unroot because you don't deserve a custom rom. If you are not s-off or s-on with hboot 1.12 then you should wait. Yes, you must be on the new kernel to run the new base. Yes, you need to be on the new firmware. If you haven't done that yet don't install 3.5 until you have.

If you are s-on hboot 1.12 than run the s-off method and be happy. All of you future upgrades will be easy peasy. If you don't want to s-off than what the hell are you doing here. S-off is the holy grail of being rooted.

If you are on hboot 1.15 s-on you basically have one option to get the new firmware and kernel and run this new base without problems. That option is to return to stock, run the ruu or take the ota and then run regaw mod unlocked again. Install 3.5 and be very happy again.

I apologize for my rant, but if you don't take the time to read he thread first, you deserve to brick your phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kilokk:
It's all good...easy to panick when your wife..I mean phone is acting up...:laugh:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
Just update the rom, nothing to be scared of. Push the new kernel, flash the rom and have a great weekend. Not having the new firmware package updated (really, any part of it) isn't the end of the world and the VERY LAST thing you want to do is relock just to get it because it will force the new HBOOT which could take even longer to find an s-off solution for.

In the big picture, the one and only thing you need to run the new base rom is the new base kernel.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kilokk:
You should be able to flash v3.4 or earlier or last nandroid. :good:

Wipe Cache/s first...maybe everything if you continue to have issues.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] digiblur:
If you can get into bootloader then you are not bricked.. Far from bricked.

And for others... I have a good suggestion about the clock running over. Don't use that ugly clock. There's one at the top all the time. If you need that big clock then you need to visit the eye doctor.

Just curious, I've dirty flashed to the 3.5 and it's working nicely.

A couple things:

1) I've got the battery icon at the top working fine. I thought it wasn't up yet

2) My Quadrant score is actually down a little to 5200 (was 5600 with 3.4 and 1.89 overclock). Not sure what to make of that.

3) I remapped the "recept apps" button to menu but I'm still getting the 3 dot menu. It sounds like some of you have been able to have that go away. Is there something else I should be doing?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jalmex:
New base & unable to boot?

If you are unable to boot with the new base, it is likely due to your phone being S-ON (regardless of HBOOT version, as long as you are unlocked) and unable to flash the kernel via recovery. This is easily resolved with a few additional steps:

Download and set up fastboot (under the Access bootloader section). Keep the phone on the bootloader screen throughout this process.

On your computer, extract the boot.img file from the root of the MeanROM zip, copy to the fastboot folder from the above step.

In a command prompt, navigate to the fastboot folder and use the following command: fastboot flash boot boot.img

You should now have a phone that boots properly. Enjoy!

OK, YouTube only works on WiFi, and can't update profile/pro. Gives me a 101x error (1015 I believe)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kilokk:
...so where as I don't agree with hammering people that are experiencing issues because they didn't see all of the information that describes what's being released in a new version I will agree that it is very important for everyone, even seasoned veterans to always take the necessary precautions and make yourself aware all the details to avoid problems. With that being said, we all probably have extremely busy lives and only have a limited amount of time to react when one of Mikey's masterpieces are released. Flashing ROM's from person to person varies...some dirty flash some do full wipes and when your skimming through literally thouououousands of posts and see someone post a score like this.. or this...... It can be very tempting to just fly into a flashaholic frenzy and getter' done. Most importantly though XDA is a community of dev's, themer's, end user's... you name it. We should all be willing to help each other reach a common goal...troubleshoot and develop for the future. It would be so awesome if we could always achieve this in a positive fashion ... Just saying ....

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bog3nator:
its possible that your score could go up a bit if you fresh installed, but if everything is running smooth and working like you want then i wouldnt worry about it...the recent apps menu, did you use the new HTC method (settings/ display, buttons, and (something else i cannot remember lol))..or did you flash something to remap it?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gianmarco00:
Not quite as "snappy" but still very smooth. I was just curious.

As for the other, I used the HTC method by going into settings/display/buttons and choosing the 2nd option. I did not flash anything to remap it.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sun1914:
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the OP states something about having to download and flash the firmware bits for the new base if you have not done so already. I tried flashing over 3.4 and kept getting an error pop up. READ CAREFULLY the OP and found I had missed a step. Flashed the firmware bits onl (no kernel, boot or recovery) and then flashed 3.5 and I'm rolling.

Only thing I did notice was that trying to flash the remap zip and 4 x 5 rosie - port-land-360. didn't work for me. Phone just kept spinning on the MeanRom ICS splash screen for about 5 mins. I got inpatient and restore nan back up.

the zip files in the mean rom folder are for the old base not the new one. that is why they uiare not working. rosie has changed and i dont beleive there is a working quick settings or 360 rosie yet

**if your dirty flashing i dont recommend using the zips in the mean rom ics folder they have messed up alot as they are designed to work with the old base i beleive**
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
The oc zips aren't for 3.5 and the new base. It's the evilz kernel for 3.4

Those zips don't work on the new base, the mean rom folder wasn't flash enable thus we don't have it with 3.5 for 3.5. The folder you have is from 3.4. All you had to do was dirty flash 3.5 tho
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] odawg1022:
The old flashes dont work the rom comes with an option for the remap in the display,buttons gesture under settings, as far as the 4x5 goes Mikey is working on that. let me say again OLD FLASHES DON'T WORK ON NEW BASE
