Any idea what the recommended setting should be for 16Gb class 10? There's an app that exists that calculates this but I forget what it's called; used it on my OG EVO
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
If you want to change the read_ahead, you can add this line in /data/MeanROM.opt:

SD_READ_AHEAD="2048"

Change 2048 to whatever you like.

Day 2 on 6.1.1 and the lagfix.zip and haven't experienced any lag in messaging and people widgets. So far great, it usually would have showed up by now. I'll keep you posted if I experience the lag.

Mikeyxda... Where has ring tone trimmer gone bro? I was just noticing its gone!!!!!!

***I Got That White Girl, Call It Amy Winehouse***
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] KEYofR:
It does, just not by default.

Menu, Preferences, Format, Time.

There are several formatting options. "Time" is one that looks like the default format with timetamps added. I haven't looked at them all but it doesn't look like there is a "raw with timestamps". So if the timestamps were the only problem, then there's no problem. If you don't like the rest of the way it's formatted either, then I guess we are still looking for an ideal recommendation.

If you want logs, you have to make it as painless as possible.

Needing a pc, usb cord, drivers, android sdk, and adb commands isn't.

Others that are free and include timestamp:

CatLog # has pid too

Log Viewer (logcat) - Yuku

LogViewer Lite (LogCat) - UKZZANG

Also the other poster (I can't see his name while writing a post in xda app, sorry) just said Android Tuner.

They each produce somewhat different looking output.

We should figure out what's an acceptable app where the output is useful for you, free if possible, so you have something simple to tell everyone the same, and everyone can do it. Alogcat is the ususal standard and if timestamps are the main problem then that is no problem.

This falls under, if you want something, "Make it easy for them to get it right".

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nicewise:
So, when I go to update my PRL, it just sit there "checking for PRL Update" and doesn't update. Thoughts? Seems to be pointing to whatever the issue is ;)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sslbaron:
I use SD Speed Increase. This works great for me. I'm not sure if this is the app you were referencing or not. It does need root access.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nicewise:
UPDATE: After hitting cancel, then going to check PRL again, it checks and finds no update. So my baseband and PRL is up-to-date, still have no 3G. Wifi works fine, and the phone works fine if I go back to 5.x MEANROM.

Would love to hear thoughts here. Thanks.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Has it been officially released yet? Last I checked it was still "leaked" software and I generally don't like to put in updates until they're released to the public.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] imadork8317:
No word yet on the office release date. I definitely understand wanting to wait until its released officially.

Capacitive buttons and I think the mod is on sd after flashing.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sslbaron:
Mikey has instructions on how to run these buttons brighter in post 3.

It took a couple of tries to get it to work for me, but that is because I didn't follow the instructions correctly..lol

I'm running mine around 15 because I just wanted them a little brighter. Good luck, it's not that complicated once you figure it out. ;)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ryanalan82:
I think it is sense 4 + S4 snapdragon related. I don't think they were on the T3 HOX but it is in the S4 HOX. I think I read that a week before I got the phone and made me think about GS3. But screw sammy, and that screen.

I had some battery issues on previous versions. I did a full wipe with fresh install and all my problems were solved.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] shook187:
Yeah count me in. Only version .8 was my battery up to par with the other ROMs :(
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] youngbasedgod:
Yea mine's falling like a sack of potatoes, but I think that's because I'm constantly staring at it, when before with the stock battery in the notification bar, I had no idea what percentage the battery was at. Still seems like it's draining pretty quickly though.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] KnoxBNYC:
It wasn't doing it with me AT ALL until the last version or two. I run a web site that I use a LOT every night. One where I have multiple tabs open at the same time. This reload problem just started in the past few days.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dude2k5:
I want to say HTC has a service that acts like juice defender, but not sure which one it is. Maybe it's been disabled or something?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] naterz:
This Rom kicks ass. Battery life is great by default and Wallet is finally working. What more can I say?!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scataldo721:
yeah .9 was great i was getting about 20+ hrs now im lucky to get about 10:( im hoping the next update can fix this for all of us:)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrshades812:
I have found that with this phone, and there only being only one kernel, I find myself "dirty flashing", or just flashing one version right over the other. Every once in a while I will do a clean install with a full wipe, not restore my backup TB data and I find that fixes 98% of my problems.

Not saying that is what people are doing, just saying it does help to do this once in a while.

As far as the power menu goes, a lot of the Battery, Menu and Systemui mods do change more then what they claim. Point of fact, the flashable map menu to right button mod by Flex360, will give me Vins power menu. (I dig that one BTW)

I have stuck to just flashing the stuff in the MeanROM-ICS folder and haven't had a single issue.

The multi-tasking issue is an HTC thing for sure, 100%. It had it day one when the phone arrived. I'm gonna wait till Mike makes a fix for that because it is annoying when working on something and get a phone call.

Thanks again for the great rom and all the updates Mike!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] njfoses:
The device sleeps like a baby when not being used. Today i barely used my phone (20 min screen on time) and im at 96% batt with 12 hours off the charger. The dual core mod does eat some additional battery when the screen is on though. Overall i can still easily get a day out of my device with my normal usage which is all i ask for. Im on 1.0 with stock 1.7 ghz oc. I did perform a full wipe as i came from stock.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] schmeggy929:
Since you stated you are using Dolphin don't you think it is a app issue and maybe not the ROM. The battery life on this thing is great, It hasnt seen under 40 percent yet. Today I watched two movies on netflix and battery dropped to 76%. If there were ever a problem with the ROm on the Evo 3D, superwiped flash rom and THAT IS IT. No themes no mods no apps from market and if problem was gone. It was something I did not the rom. I see a lot of problems solved just reading the OP, 2 or 3 posts following and the MeanROM-ICS folder readme.txt.

Edit: Im not sure what the "multi-tasking" issue is. Went to Dolphin oped a website, turned screen off and came back and opened dolphin again and paged was there and one sec later refreshed by itself. Not sure if thats what you all are talking about.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] afgomar:
12 hours with heavy usage and screen brightness full. Awesome job
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] riceatusc:
ran it for a few hours today. can't wait to come back after I ruu my phone and get a replacement for the secure element
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sslbaron:
I agree. I am still running stock because I haven't taken the plunge yet, and I have the multi-tasking issue on mine.

It's looking like this rom will be the one I go with so far. I had CM9 on my Photon, but this one's looking better for my EVO LTE.

Keep up the good work Mikey :good:

any chance of getting more extended quicksettings in the future similar (or better) to the one mik put out?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ryanalan82:
What's funny to me about this is I went to dolphin for the first time ever before I came to meanrom. And as soon as I did, I very quickly said goodbye to dolphin.the stock browser before mean brought the phone to a crawl.

I flashed 6.1.1 over 6.0 last night, and for some reason none of the new swipe options work. My phone says 6.1.1 is installed, but the swipe functions are the same as on 6.0. The enhanced options are supposed to be the default, but do I need to activate them now to get them to work?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dmyoung:
When I use Google Now there a notice that there is a new version available on Google Play. When I try to update I get a message that says the update is not compatible.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ElMadre:
I believe only Swipe2Sleep, power menu and screenshot are in the default...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] js417:
Sweep modes:

echo 0 > /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake: Turns off all sweep gestures.

echo 1 > /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake: This is the default. All gestures except sweep2wake are enabled: sweep2sleep, sweep2power, and sweep2snap.

echo 2 > /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake: All power related sweep gestures are enabled: sweep2sleep, sweep2power, sweep2snap, and sweep2wake.

echo 3 > /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake: All sweep gestures are enabled: sweep2sleep, sweep2power, sweep2snap, sweep2wake, sweep2mute, sweep2loud, and phantom volume down/up.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Los Altos:
I misunderstood the Default when it said all gestures except sweep2wake. If I want sweep2mute, sweep2loud, and phantom volume down/up, it looks like I have to have sweep2wake too.

Thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] js417:
Yeah thats the only thing holding me back from changing it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ElMadre:
The latest nightly fixes that
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrshades812:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CheriePie:
24 hour update

Quick update to my above post, all I have time for at the moment before I head out for the rest of the day. Thought it'd be a good idea to reference my previous post in this one since I went and changed my forum (and profile) avatars this morning too from Animal with the heart-shaped shades. (everyone always thinking I'm a dude! lol) :laugh:

Anyhoo, it's now been another 13 hours since my last post and yes I've started to see a little bit of a LAG come back in the Messages app, not nearly as bad as before though. As I previously mentioned, sometimes threads in the Messages app could take more than 30+ seconds to open so that my screen eventually shuts off; I think it's gone on for over a minute sometimes. This morning, I had a few lags while opening threads but it was never more than 20 seconds. I also had a 26s lag clicking on an individual message inside the Twitter SMS thread to bring up the context menu. (I often use the Lock Message option for indiv tweets I want to review in more depth later, like with a link or something, and then do them all at once later.) Each time I had lag, I popped over to Android Tuner and used it's log viewer to grab a logcat file. I'm attaching those here now.

Being out and about today, using my phone in the car dock, and attempting to access my contacts through there should provide an additional test since that's another area it always hangs on me. If I can do so without causing an accident ;) I'll try to also grab a logcat if I experience a delay there as well. But just in case, I thought these 4 files might keep you busy for awhile. :)

PS on paging back thru a couple of these, I noticed a large number of java related errors. Not sure which app is throwing those up at first glance so if you see that too and it's obvious to you what's doing that, let me know. If it involves passing that info on to another dev, like 3C if it's caused by Android Tuner for example, then I'll do that. :)

PPS I grabbed the 6.2 update from my laptop when, like others, I was having trouble downloading it directly thru OTA Updater so that's transferring over to my phone now. I won't have time to apply it until later tonight or tomorrow though so just wondering if 6.2 includes any additional contact/messaging fixes that weren't in the 6.1.1 nightly I'm running now?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jediknight36:
I saw there was an update via OTA, but it won't download. Says md5 error.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tm21fourt3:
Any idea why this happened?

This was literally an hour before I upgraded to 6.2. So unless 6.2 has magic in it....I might need some additional help.

Note: under the last "Android OS" there's just 2 other things each for 2%

Thanks.

Are you on WiFi? Because I get that error when I try to download it at with because my IT people have so much blocked. Downloads just fine at home on WiFi.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CrazyTechnoBoy:
Hey mikey. You probably won't read this, but I want to thank you for spending so much time and effort on this to please us all. I was on CM10 for about a month already and I wasn't gonna go back to sense. But I was looking at your latest work, and I couldn't resist ignoring it. So here I am, back on sense. You should be damn proud of that. :p
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
I see literally hundreds of tasks getting killed, including contacts, over and over. From the stuff that's getting killed, your phone looks pretty heavily loaded. Looks like you've got a swarm of things running constantly. Might be a good idea to do some housekeeping. On top of the usual HTC stuff like calendar, notes, etc. I see these getting killed constantly: Ebay Mobile, BetterBatteryStats, DropBox, HootSuite, ShopKick Airmail, Avast Security, Avast Antitheft, Urbanairship, Alphonso Pulse, RoflHarrison Agenda, Ivona Voice Beta, Sleep Tweak, Froogloid, SolidExplorer, Lifeware Solutions, AdaptiveBlue, GsamLabs, SMSPopup. And those are JUST the ones that are being killed!

In all honesty, from what I see in your logs, I think you've got your phone loaded so heavy that it doesn't know whether to chit or go blind! With that much stuff running, you're bound to have problems because the task killer is going to be running constantly. I saw 225 task kills in 15 minutes. Might be time to trim some fat.

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rootlinux:
I am running 6.1 with lagfix.

So far no issues with contacts, messages or screen flicker.

Not around WiFi so I will grab 6.2 later.

Great stuff Mikey.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ElMadre:
LOL, nope, must be the ROM.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nohart:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] crab_colony:
Just updated to 6.2. I've been having the Contacts/SMS lags sporadically for as long as I can remember (while running stock as well). I know I was suppose to only sync the Google contacts, but I've had my Facebook contacts synced as well. Still getting the lag on 6.2 BEFORE I cleared my Contacts. I'll try clearing my Contacts and only syncing Google to see if that helps.

FWIW, here's my logcat after I experienced the lag in 6.2.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] pre2epic4g:
the download links in the OP go to the webpage to download but AndroidHost is all messed up looking and when you click the "Download" button on the DevHost link it just times out.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] schmeggy929:
Im pretty sure I mentioned this awhile back, I didn't think it was the ROM. People forget they might have "that one app" which is causing an issue in another app or apk. Alway a good idea to do a full wipe and install only the necessary apps for a few days. Some many apps out there are accessing this and accessing that, for what? I know it could have been the rom but about 1000 MeanROM users with no issues compared to a handful with this mystery lag something was fishy.

Leave it to Mikey for narrowing down the issue without even having it himself. Great ROM and keep up the great work!

PS in no way am I trying to be rude or mean. Carry on :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CheriePie:
Boy is my face red! :o Looking at the names you listed, most of that is stuff I use daily, or at least once a week. Though I know I had previously disabled most if not all of the notification settings from within those apps so that they wouldn't autostart and run as background services, I guess with all the flashing and fresh wipes I've done in the last several weeks, I didn't go back and reset all the default settings for several of these after my last full wipe (somewhere around 5.7 or 5.8) to turn off all the notifications and background updating again. Stuff like eBay, Shopkick, Froogloid's KeyRing app (for all the loyalty or library cards you would otherwise have to carry on your keyring), Pulse's background updating, etc. All of those use default settings that enable Notifications or Background updating. So yes, housekeeping indeed. I'll start with that.

Of course, none of this negates the contacts/messaging issue I was having, it would just mask it somewhat. And since the lags I saw this morning were indeed much shorter than they used to be, it's likely that any lag I'm seeing now is simply caused by all this memory killing/swapping, and that 6.1.1 has indeed fixed the messaging lag issue for me too. I'll get fresh logcats to you once all those apps have been reconfigured to not run in the background, assuming I still see any lag at all.

BTW, you didn't tell me if 6.2 has any additional messaging/contacts fixes beyond what I'm running in the 6.1.1. nightly. Should I install that one later tonight or continue my testing under 6.1.1 for now?

PS to the dude who said, "LOL, nope, must be the ROM." note that I never implied as such. Just because I had neglected to go back and turn off all the background stuff, that's no reason to be rude to me.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] myamex:
anyone has problem with camera and gallery issue with 6.2?

I can take picture with the camera, but it doesn't save anything to gallery and when I open my gallery, it has nothing there.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
To clarify, 6.2 has everything from 6.1 .1 plus the lag fix runs every time you boot to rebuild and reindex the contacts database. So 6.2 is better than 6.1 .1 because it automatically does the lag fix everytime you reboot. I do see from a couple of the logs that I can make one more tweak to maybe finish all of this lag. I can make it so that contacts never gets killed. That may also help.

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] JerryGNYC:
FWIW, I just flashed 6.1 today and have no contact lag with about 300 contacts. Though I don't know how many people with the issue have.

Really Nice ROM, mikey. :thumbup:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ElMadre:
Sorry, I didn't mean to offend you (and wasn't even referring to your situation specifically). I was just kidding around, because I read every post and it's amazing how many things are attributed to the ROM. Once in awhile it's "I'm completely stock, just the ROM, still having issues", but 90% of the time there's a "oh, except for the fact that I de-Sensed it 7.5 times and then themed it with a Thanksgiving extravaganza.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chuckhriczko:
I had to stop using the HTC gallery because it doesn't update properly. Try a couple things. First, go to settings->apps and clear data and cache. Reboot and maybe clear cache and dalvik. If that doesn't work go to settings->storage and unmount the sd card then remount it. Usually one or a combination of both of those will help to some degree.

I wondered the same thing, so I searched and found it's a replacement for those cards you carry on your keyring to get access to rewards programs at stores, etc...

CVS, Randalls, etc.. I just installed one and it works great, I haven't tried it at a store yet, but if I can remove those dam things from my key ring then good riddance. You can also sign up right from the APP for new ones that are in your area, it's great....

I got the one called "Key Ring" I hope it's the same thing.. :o
