Already incorporated. Just testing some things before I release 0.7. But even if it wasn't incorporated, a quick visit to the play store with an "Update" on Google Wallet would do the same thing.

Not happening to me. I tried both dimmer and brighter than normal and it stayed there. Are you using any tweaks/mods that might cause the manual brightness to not stick?

I stopped by the local Sprint store yesterday. They had both white and blue GS3's in stock. The verdict is....... I'm staying with the Evo 4G LTE. Both are great phones and I'm not gonna go all fanboi here, but I played with an unactivated phone for about 10 minutes and here's why I'm staying:

(1) Screen. I went in with expectations that the Samsung screen would be lacking but I tried to put that aside in my mind and not let that affect my review. Honestly, the difference was not as dramatic as I thought it'd be but it was definitely there: The Samsung screen looked "milky" next to the Evo. that's the best way I can describe it. But for a screen that is missing 33% of the photo elements, I have to say there wasn't a 33% difference. The Samsung was behind maybe 10% to 15% in the clarity arena: where text and edges just weren't as sharp, particularly where two colors like blue and red meet. The brightness difference was probably closer to 33% where the Evo may very well have been 33% brighter with both phones at their brightest setting. Even with both phones set to the same overall brightness, the Samsung looked just a hint "milky" compared to the Evo and I suspect that's the pentile screen on the Samsung. It's almost like when you've been driving your car for a while and you think the windshield is clean but then you Windex the inside and realize it had a slight film on it and once you're done you say, "Yeah, that looks clearer". But without them side by side, I suspect it'd be harder to tell a difference unless you're in the sun where the Samsung just can't hack it WRT brightness. A problem here in FL where we have 16 bit sunshine. ;)

(2) Signal. I asked about signal and one of the techs said the Evo gets a better signal. Then the other two rolled their eyes and piped in "definitely"! Apparently they've had some call-backs in our area already for the Samsung and they've only had the phone since Friday. Our area is notorious for bad Sprint signal. Never had a problem keeping a connection with my Evo 3D and now the LTE, but apparently the Samsung is not quite as good at getting a signal. I talked to my friend at another store and he said the same thing so there must be some truth to it if four techs give you that "Ugh... tell me about it!" response. They all seemed a little frustrated when you mention Samsung and signal in the same sentence; at least that's the read I was getting. At home I barely get one bar (sometimes zero, but still with a signal) with the two Evo's so the last thing I need is a phone with slightly worse reception. Could mean the difference between reliable service and dropped calls.

So... I'm here to stay!

If I go and change the voltage of the battery from high to low in that SD cache page, what is this helping? Am I getting better battery life for doing that or performance?

so happy that mean rom is on the lte now.. real talk.. this is my fav rom ever.. it ran so good on my 3d.. now its ruuning beast on my lte and its just the begining.. cant wait to see what this rom will become in a few weeks!! thanks for making such a kick a$$ rom mike.. i cant wait till we have custom kernels!!!!! :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PaulB007:
Another major difference Mikey is that the S3 cannot video record loud audio with bass. It will become so buzzy that it will practically become unwatchable.. the evo has no problems like that.

No mods. No tweaks. And it's happening a lot. I've even tried a super wipe and reinstalling fresh.

Mike, I believe he was asking for the hacked .apk not for the most recent update from Play. The latest from Play still doesn't work for the majority (all?) of Evo LTE users. See thread:

I don't know if you experience this as well or if others do, but when the screen is on, it rips through the battery and when it's off, it sips the battery like a full camel at a pond. Is this because of the dual-core mod?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RHall1340:
Really irritates me that HTC/Sprint don't allow me to do with my hardware what I choose. If it wasn't for 2 of my phones failing I would have the original HBoot and s-off.. now I am stuck with 1.15 and s-on with HTC Unlock.. Grrrr
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bog3nator:
well maybe one day you will be able to do s-off or they will (probably wont happen) stop being jerks and release and unlocked hboot
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Foxworth:
Thanks Bogs, I am confused with all of the S-off - on talk...

I guess my original LTE 1.12 in the box that I have is worth worth a lot of money :)

Fox
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bog3nator:
yea it seems that phones with hboot 1.12 that have or can obtain s-off may become a collectors item haha. i had a scare when my screen went black the other night and my phone seemed to not be doing anything but i got into bootloader and was able to reflash. the only thing i was thinking about was a new phone that i could not s-off.

edit: s-off gives full control of your phone and unlocks the nand secure partions so they can be written to without HTC sig verifications. s-on allows only rom installs and cannot flash anything non-HTC certified to the system portions (radio, pri etc...)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] netengineer:
I know quadrant isn't a "true" test but if you compare it to test you have run on different ROMs with OC on/off, kernels ect on your own phone it can be an indication of how well it performs.

This is what I got with 3.5.

On 3.4 when I OC to 1890 I got around the same score but I had GU issues at that. Plus my battery didn't perform as well.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] astarling10:
Uh oh

I was following qbking77's instructions on how to relock the phone and then unroot and ran into a problem. My phone is in bootloader mode and says "RELOCKED Security Warning". I cannot boot the phone. When i hit reboot, all it does is reboot the bootloader mode. Any suggestions??

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kusanagi-sama:
I had to run the RUU to get the phone to boot beyond the bootloader after I had relocked it. When you relock it, the phone doesn't like running a rooted OS.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bog3nator:
i have a feeling this will happen with every new OTA lol. it is happening in flex's thread also

BTW, when it says it'll take 10 minutes... that's a lie. It took nearly an hour for it do its thing. BTW, RegawMOD will work to unlock and install TWRP, but it must be manually rebooted into bootloader each time it would normally automatically reboot.

Bugs

Can we make a list of "bugs" that we have found so far? I think this would be useful for Mikey. For those that are having trouble flashing the last 3 versions of this ROM (me included) try what I did..flash back to the stock kernal first then this rom..WORKED for me!! I think that EvilZ was the culprit.... Look back a few pages and find (freEVOLTE_StockMOD1-1.22.651.3StockCores(7-13).zip). After I flashed back to the stock kernal, I had no problems with 3.4 and 3.5.

The only bug I have found so far is that the Camera is taking very bad quality/fuzzy pictures now. And yes, I have cleaned the lens. Anyone else have this issue?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bog3nator:
nope, i dont have any bugs
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RyanInAj:
Do we think 3.6 is a possibility tonight?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kusanagi-sama:
Only bug that I know of currently is the one where you set a ringer for a contact, but instead it uses the system default.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] p2cactus:
What ruu are you running? I was looking for one based upon the newest OTA, but all I could find was the 1.22 version. Could you point me to where you found a new one, if you are using it?

I'm probably gonna be yelled at but I simply cannot get this update to install correctly. I'm currently S-Off, don't use any themese with TWRP, and have the latest version of TWRP.

I have tried installing this update through the OTA Updater and manually by booting into the Recovery and neither method installs correctly. Upon installing and rebooting, everything loads like normal, however the sense launcher never finishes loading. The only way to bypass the loading on the hone screen us to install a seperate launcher (I'm able to do that because there were outstanding updates to my apps).

I have wiped the cache, heck even did a factory reset before installing and still can't properly use the update. I'm coming from MEANrom 3.4.

Sorry guys, no time to read thru the entire thread.

Tried using ota updater in v3.2 to update to v3.5. It would flash fine but would not reboot. Stuck on blank screen for 3-5 mins and it would shut itself off. I would then have to boot into bootloader and restore. Unfortunately, my 3.2 backup did not work properly so back at 3.1 now. Any ideas how to get 3.5 to flash properly? Tried this 3 times already same results.

Thanks for the info, didn't know where to find the stock HTC kernel from, so I just decided to try something else.

I used the OTA updater to flash from my downloaded roms. That rebooted into recovery which then couldn't find the OTA downloaded rom and kicked me into TWRP 2.2.2.0. WTF? I just flashed 3.5 which I had downloaded already into my download folder. I guess whatever work as I was able to reboot into a nice clean flashed 3.5.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] distantneighbor:
Mikey, I am running on the 2.13 base and just installed your MeanRom 3.5. Few things I noticed that were different from wwjoshdew in his review was that there is no quick settings, also the status bar sits on top of the real estate so the widgets and icon overlap partially under the staus bar, know what I mean?

It is like you know in windows, if you wanted your task bar to always be present you would right click and uncheck 'hide task bar' (or whatever exactly that says) then the task bar would be visible and the rest of the screen would move up and adjust so that nothing is "underneath" the task bar. Well the status bar on this rom appears to hide top of widgets or whatever at top. I believe it is the same way with dock bar.

Not sure what is up nor how to fix it.

Thanks for your hard work

That was like one of the first few releases and off the original base. I NEED to update that video desperately, but I'm in the middle of moving (should be done by tonight), getting internet set up, and everything. I am GOING to redo that video as soon as I can. Also, a LOT of people seem to be having issues with the firmware, flashing the new 1.19 hboot and etc. I need to make absolute sure I do everything right, without having a 600 dollar phone that's useless with that new hboot...

This is turning into a s-on fest

To those who are s-on and didn't take an ota, you have to s-off or continue being annoyed with your problems.

To those s-on and did take an ota, well your sol and u ****ed up big time!

The worst are the people in general going omg, the ota, I gotta take it, I'm gonna take it, gimme gimme gimme..... Chill the hell out. U Can't wait, really.......... Really

There is an reason I got this eVo and the previous 2 on launch day.....S-off.

If I didn't get the phone then, and had to get it now I wouldn't get get it cause I wouldn't be able to get s-off.

You people should realize how rare your phone is after s-off. Not one person is even remotely allowed to come close to touching my phone because I know if it gets broke it can't be replaced. I would get an updated replacement and that is unacceptable.

I'm not talking about people who got the phone late with an update above h boot 1.12 as I feel horrible for you. guys.

Man the ota peeps are the worst, like y did u take it, y, y, y. Just to have it.

And did I see a flashable firmware update with the new h boot? Y would anyone flash that, u should stay on the oldest h boot for that phone, always always always.**** the new hboot. And if u are stuck on hboot 1.15, there will probably be an exploit for that before 1.19.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wwjoshdew:
You couldn't of said it better Ryan. There are to many people like xHaus that post updates without the bad stuff, and people like MikeyXDA that incorporate the update it his rom. So you're not missing out on anything. Well... Except for a new HBOOT.

Hoping for 3.6 later today. I worked all day yesterday on the 4x5 Rosie to try to get rid of the full screen widget positioning problem. For me that's about 14-16 hours. I made progress and I feel like if you knew exactly where and what to change, it's probably a simple fix. Problem is finding it! That Rosie is a spider web of code that reads HTC widgets differently from app widgets differently from fx widgets, code that tries to rescale widgets, reposition based on widget X span and Y span. So for now, I have no more time to spend on it and 3.6 will be back to 4x4 with a flash for 4x5 and a note about the widget placement. At least I found a way to turn the menu button back on so you can press menu and get to settings from the home screen so I have that tiny tidbit to show for my work and that'll be in 3.6.

I'm looking into quick settings before I release 3.6. I may be able to get some quick settings in but I've looked at the other Sense 4.1 quick settings solutions that are out there and they compromise too much Sense 4.1 code. In other words they're not as "clean" as I like to see because I usually require that all my mods allow 100% base code (2.13 in our case) around them without dragging old code in with them.

So... that's where I've been. Too busy to even answer PM's. Maybe later today.

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wwjoshdew:
You see Mikey, you make things difficult. WHY?!?! Because you update your rom way to much! Now if I do an updated video on 3.5, people are gonna ask about the 4x5 rosie and quick settings. Then if I wait for 3.6, you'll just release 3.7 which will bring 3 days of battery life, and a faster, meaner rom... Ahh, now I know you you call it MEAN rom... just a suggestion... When you release MeanROM ICS 4.0... Call it "MeanASSROM" or something! :)
