No sms being deleted for me. I am overclocked and did a dirty flash. I did not use my backup either.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] seewhyphotos:
Strange issue..

Okay.. I'm beginning to notice a problem that shows up and only a reboot is correcting it.

My soft-keyboard accepts typing, shows me the letters that I'm hitting, but nothing is appearing in the text area. This is for SMS, browser, dialpad, etc.

Also, at this time, when I pull down the notification area, it's blank. Can't see anything.

I am O/C'ed to 1.728 and the rest of the stats are in my signature below.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kilokk:
Neither your stats or message say if you did a full wipe or dirty flash when you went to v3.0, but if you did a dirty flash, I would start backing everything up and prepare go with a full clean wipe and re-install.:)

I replied to the SMS problem earlier but I forgot to reply to the above. The above is a kernel function and cannot be done without a modified kernel. It can't be done in the ROM.

Honestly i'm not too sure but i will say my bluetooth experience is not the greatest like the connection is not as clear as before.. But for this rom i'm ok with ;) Sorry wsn't much of help. but i also will metion i'm having the same issue without the contacts part.

Where do I download the mod?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fastmikey1969:
Does this affect apps in general or just the specific ones you mentioned? Any technical details? Or is that a meanrom trade secret? :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:
You don't have to. Use Root Explorer, and you will find it in the MeanROM ICS folder on your sdcard.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
It will have some overall effect on the system and other apps. Having the most used apps not dying and respawning all the time improves battery life. Ensuring that SuperSU isn't being killed all the time can improve reliability of root apps. Keeping you logged into Google Services Framework means that a lot of Google apps won't have to be re-logging in all the time. It's like bailing water out of a canoe. Fix the holes and you won't have to do so much work bailing water from the same hole(s).

Sorry for the delay in responding. I did a dirty flash from 2.9 to 3.0.

The problem went away today without having to reboot. I think that you are right and a full wipe/reset and reflash will probably fix this minor little issue.

Thanks for responding.

I work at Ford dealership and I drive different cars all the time and not had any issues. Have you been in for the Sync update yet? There are a few versions and when I was running different roms with the 4g and 3d I used to have some issues from time to time. Since Ford has done the upgrades I don't recall having any issues.

If you call your local Lincoln or Ford dealer and give them the vin they can tell you if you have any updates.

I have been able to use Sync with ever rom and every update of mean.

I would try a master reset on Sync. Doing depends if you have nav or not.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Yeah, I actually went to apply for it a few months back but at the time XDA said, "Sorry but we're not accepting any more applications for recognized dev at this time" or something to that effect. I figured it was more important to just do what I do and not worry about it so I never bothered going back and seeing if they opened it up again. Either way, I do my thing. Not really here to toot my own horn anyway. I just wanna give... and to those who wanna give me a lil' something back, that's fine too. It works out fine and I have no complaints.

Google Now Issues

Anyone else having google now problems? I myself am not having any other issues, with text's or anything except Google Now. It works.. sometimes it wont back out. It loads the weather card, but not loading other cards and seems like it is taking a long time for it to load, almost constantly loading it seems. Battery is draining a little more than it should too. If i dont enable google now battery seems to be better. It wont show my other cards either, just the weather. I tried the places cards and a few others but only see the Weather card. And yes i clicked on show more cards.

Love this rom, no way i'll be switching to any other rom. Thanks for your hard work and constant updates and appearance in the thread.

Oh and i did a clean isntall of this rom, wiping cache's and factory reset and didn't use titanium backup either. Didn't flash any other zips and didn't over clock either.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lancemoreland:
I have the latest sync update. It was working fine yesterday before the upgrade from 2.9 to 3.0. I am going to wipe everything and start over and try again. If it does not work, I will need to go back to 2.9. I do have nav. Everything works except it will not download the phone book. Do you think a master reset on sync should be tried before rebuilding the phone?

You need to go into settings and give it access to your search history. After that search for your favorite sports team or whatever and it should give you cards. If you want appointment cards then give it access to your calendar.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
I almost hate to post this on page 666 but... ;)

v3.1 is available. You should be able to install via OTA updater without issue now and once you install 3.1, OTA updater should tell you that there are no updates available at this time... until the next version comes out. I also added a method where you can overclock, select "BATTERY" over performance, etc. one time and your settings will stick through dirty flashes of future updates. That beats always having to flash the 1.7 OC zip or change "PERFORMANCE" to "BATTERY" with every version. See post 3 for the specifics. Long story short, you can change only the settings you want to change in /data/MeanROM.opt instead of fooling with /system/etc/init.qcom.post_boot.sh.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cruise350:
Just used the ota updater to upgrade to 3.1 and it worked great.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baldben:
Downloading 3.1 OTA right now, but Mikey says that the discrepancy in frequencies is a problem with how QS reads the frequencies and not with the overclocking itself. If you look in System Tuner, you'll notice that the proper frequency is being achieved.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Chris4809:
After I installed 3.1 the OTA updater still wants me to update to 3.0 when at phone start up

I opened OTA Updater and it said an update was available (3.0) (I'm already on 3.1), then when I selected the update, it changed to no updates available :)

Rebooting now to see if it sticks...

Edit: Nope, still says 3.0 is an available update. But again, when you select the update, it goes away and says no updates available. Still not fixed, but an improvement...

OTA Updates

At least you are able to get OTA to download. I still have to go to through the old process to update.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] icethegreat:
Yeah so did I but it was an issue with my wifi connection that would go out in the middle of the download and fail. I don't know why but my wifi doesn't randomly go out like that and I ran it twice, same thing happened. So I just downloaded the usual way via xda app on phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Socrguru:
Quick fix for the OTA notification not going away:

Go to Settings > Apps > OTA Updater

Clear Data

Reboot - should be gone!

I'm flashing the new radio with TWRP because I'm S-ON, but its been flashing for a good 3 minutes now..is this normal?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Nygel:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] V1ViD:
OP has an option to flash just the radio through recovery, but for some reason it's stuck on writing raido image.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baldben:
You have to have hboot 1.12 to do that (flash through recovery) I believe.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Majin101:
Actually its in local/data sorry not sure if u found it yet though, had a few drinks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baldben:
lol yep, I found it.

I notice that the post_boot file doesn't change to overclock=7 though. I wonder if other changes made their will still make a difference, ie undervolting.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BAttitude7689:
I cant find it :( using root explorer... where do i look??
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Socrguru:
It's just in /data if you start up Root Explorer. The file won't be there unless you create it or install the OC 1.7 zip.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kiit408:
I know this is a noob question but....

i never did a dirty update to a rom.

Does that mean i keep all the settings that i have now on my phone?

Or what will be reset if i'm coming from 3.0 and go to 3.1?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baldben:
Pretty much everything will be kept other than mods, such as 4x4 rosie or battery icon. Flash those again.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BAttitude7689:
i always OC the manual way by editing the post boot file , is it preferred to do it the other way i OC at 1.72
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CBRRider:
Hate to sound like a noob but by running the update from the OTA app, will I have it reinstall anything? I've always installed the updates through TWRP and wiped everything but the internal/external SDcard before installing.

Edit: nevermind, apparently in the time it took me to write this, someone else asked the same question.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kiit408:
Even the applications and the settings to the launcher?

SORRY A BIT NERVOUS the designs took me 2hrs of boredom but EXCELLENT turn out lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] baldben:
When I edited the post boot file to 1.729 after flashing to 1.71, it didn't change my overclocking. I had to edit MeanROM.opt to 8.

---------- Post added at 10:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:28 PM ----------

Yep, don't wipe and it will all still be the same.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Socrguru:
Flashing the file is supposed to do the same thing as the manual setting (at least on previous versions). I think on 3.1 the zip creates the new MeanRom.opt file with the OC settings in it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
The ROM defaults and instructions are in /system/etc/init.qcom.post_boot.sh. If you want to change the user variables listed at the top, do it in /data/MeanROM.opt. That way they'll be permanent... Until you full wipe. Example: to overclock to 1.72 and undervolt, your /data/MeanROM.opt should have these two lines:

OVERCLOCK=8

VOLTAGE="UNDER"

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] babyschmoof:
Finally heard back from htc about receiving new source files and Jellybean. HTC claims they follow google's license policy, which allows them up to 75 days to deliver new source files. This does not include anything pertaining to the drivers for their proprietary SOC. These will not be released, as they are not part of the open license agreement.

Regarding our phone getting Jellybean, it is currently not in their upgrade cycle due to issues related to Sprint. This is subject to change, depending if Sprint and HTC play nice. They were apparently not happy with the custom specs and name Sprint wanted. I didn't push it, but I believe our phone is the best of the One series.

I really tried guys, but my journey with HTC and updated drivers has come to an end. They will either do the right thing or not. Regardless, we have one of the most aggressive and responsive developers. My guess is when they launch their new series, we will finally see an updated source.

I tried a few follow up emails, but I eventually started receiving stock replies. So basically we wait, and hope Mike continues to do us proud.

Tried going straight from 2.7 to 3.1 and the update failed. The phone booted w/o doing a restore from the nandroid I took right before and it went through an Android updating screen and when I went into about it said MeanRom 3.1. Just to be on the safe side I reboot into recovery and tried to reinstall and it failed again. Did a full wipe and tried to restore to the nandroids I had from right before and another from a few days ago. Both started but when it starts restoring system it just flashes back to the TWRP home screen. Did I miss something?

Tried wiping and doing a fresh install of 3.1 but that's been going for about 20 minutes and the status bar is only about 60% and hasn't moved in over 10 minutes.

---------- Post added at 01:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 AM ----------

Ok, I messed up a bit. After the 2nd install failed I did a wipe/factory reset instead of wipe/system. Every time I try to do a restore now it errors out restoring data sayomg it is unrecognized backup mount. I did a fresh install of a completely different rom and it somehow has aps that I have installed in the last week and has the password I set up 2 weeks ago. Something got corrupted I am guessing? Was able to restore from a nandroid and phone is back up, just want to be sure it is stable. And I realized that I was running 1.7, not 2.7. I had downloaded it but hadn't flashed it yet.
