I have experienced hangs with dungeon hunters and real racing 2. If I set the CPU to be max frequency it mostly goes away. The hangs can last for several seconds. I didn't experience this before I rooted and went MeanROM.

I agree, it seems the CPU is throttling back - I don't know how to tell if that's what's happening or not. Also the phone seems to be pretty hot, so I don't know if that could be what is leading to the throttling, although again this didn't happen before I rooted. I'm not running any oc and it's the same case since I bought the phone.

Curious to hear of there are any developments about the battery. I thought I might have been the only 1.

Other than that loving 4.2. Only 2 quirks I have noticed are I have to turn GPS off, then go back a 2md time and turn it off again and for some reason accessing my phonebook to search names takes much longer now. Dirty a dirty install from 4.1 to 4.2 so thinking about doing a wipe and install to check.

Thanks for everyone here helping.

I didnt know about the gesture, button recet app button thing. It must be something new.

I like the 5 shutcut background thing be invisible so i can see the whole screen. It was included in previous built right? Waiting for this clue.

Sprints VVM still doesn't work on this rom right? I've been trying to get used to Google Voice as a replacement but it does a bunch of things I don't want it to do and I can't figure out how to tell it to settle down.

I just want it to be my voice mail, nothing more.

But, it is making me push one to answer my phone when I already accepted the call.

Showing me my text messages. I already have handcent for that.

Sending me sms when I receive a voice mail. I don't need multiple notifications for one voice mail.

Can someone help me out or point me in the right direction?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Ed.V:
how can i get landscape and remapping the home botton (long press) to work on mean rom?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:
HTC added the button remapping in the latest base. Since yes, it is new.

What you are asking about us called the navigation bar. Right now, it is still stock. Mikey has been busy tackling bigger things. But, I'm sure it will get changed in a later build.

I use ICS Browser most of the time but haven't experienced any problem on the stock browser when I do use it. Could be a settings problem. You might try clearing data for the stock browser to see if that fixes it.

Well, for continuous use, you're in the ballpark. Are you running on WiFi or 3G?

How's your cell signal? You're connected to WiFi so it's not 3G drain... but cell signal hunting can cause a lot of drain too.

It appears that the horrendously large font size in the stock email app problem is back in 4.2.1. I can't even zoom out far enough to read a single sentence. Font size is indeed set as small, and has been toggled to other sizes and back a multitude of times.

Also, any possibility of getting the individual volume adjust sliders back in the quick settings? I loved being able to tap the icon and have it cycle through each type of sound function and have a discreet slider for it.

Duh! Nevermind!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Looks good to me! Mind if I use a slightly modded version in my base ROM? Looks like you changed the "stale task killing" from 30 minutes to 24 hours. I might go with something a little more conservative: maybe 3 hours or so for that and maybe 32 max hidden tasks instead of 70. I'd probably use the one without the SC (modified OOM priorities) just because I've tweaked some OOM stuff (by task) already. What do you think? You know more than me on the OOM stuff: I'm just trying to follow along, so thanks for this!

Just a note from someone on 4.2 who is NOT having battery drain problems. I just plugged it in at 25% after over 24 hours on battery.....

Also, I've stuck with the old firmware, and I have not had a single reboot, and I only had wifi/bluetooth problems one time. So it is definitely YMMV....

Ok I am sure I am just having a senior moment here but u got a question. Ok so my phone was not behaving so I decided to try to find out why. I do t buy the baseband kernel mismatch but maybe that's just cause I do not want to do the upgrade.. anyway.. I did a factory reset. I am not sure what I was expecting to find but when my phone booted up I was on meanrom 4.0.. stock Rom I guess was what I was expecting.. so did it not wipe? I certanly was not expecting mean 4.0 maybe 4.2 since that was what I was running before the wipe..

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sabbys:
Well just conceptually, because I have not loaded the latest builds, if there are multitasking tweaks involved to allow for more tasks to run then overall performance would go down because more tasks are running and not being killed earlier like previously, especially if your routine was to kill stuff in task manager before runing AnTuTu.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lazer9:
Thanks. Already did the PRL and the Profile update per calls to customer service & the Sprint Store where I purchased. I will check out that app you just brought up also. Right now I'm ready to pull my hair out with Sprint and their latest CS agents. One minute, I was to have an Airave on it's way to me, now I'm told have to be with them 90 days. I fear I will have to be reverting this thing back to stock very soon and making a trip back to the store unfortunately and making the grand decision whether to jump back onto Verizon or checkout AT&T's offerings.

Sorry to go off-topic. I'm having major stress atm after that last call to SPRINT and a few more dropped calls in my home. :(

And with all this, I haven't even had a chance to checkout the latest nightly yet. *sigh* And I was liking this HTC EVO 4G LTE for the most part.

Welcome to any suggestions - feel free to PM me so not to take this thread off-topic.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cruise350:
A factory reset doesn't take you back to stock, it only wipes your data. The only way to go back to stock is installing a stock rom or running a ruu. Also, there is no way you were on 4.2 and did a Factory reset and ended up with 4.0, impossible. Yet, you're unwilling to take others advice on upgrading your full firmware as a possibility to get rid of your reboot problem or misbehaving phone.

MeanRom doesn't have a splash screen it has a boot animation. The splash screen is the very first screen you see when your phone turns on answer if you flash one it will not change unless you flash another one. A rom will not affect it because it is written to a different partition. I can't remember if you have to be s-off or not to flash a splash screen since I have been s-off on all my phones and have flashed so many splash screens the answer escapes me.

Now if it's the boot animation you want to change, then yes it will change back to the original meanrom boot animation every time you flash a new rom.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gianmarco00:
Ahh, ok.

So, is there a way that we can change the boot animation ourselves?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cruise350:
If your reception problem is that bad, then you should switch carriers now. You only have 13 days from purchase to return it and cancel. I know it's suppose to be 14 days, but Sprint counts the day of purchase so that really only gives you 13. There is no sense sticking with a carrier if you don't have good reception and are going to be miserable.

I am on the same setup as you and just had my first random reboot, am sitting in the dark watching IndyCar and I saw my phone go all white, and noticed a reboot... Hmmmm

There's always buying a cellular repeater. Totally different than an Airave that requires an constant internet connection.

he has written a script to install them. Or you can just copy them to the /system/customize/resource folder on your phone and name them SPC_bootanimation.zip or SPC_downanimation.zip respectively. Then reboot and enjoy.

If you copy them to that folder, make sure you change the permissions to rw-r--r--. If you don't do this the bootdown animation won't play.

Only use the link you referenced if you used Lazy Panda to achieve s-off. Since you just got your phone I would think that you aren't s-off.
