Sorry for using the blanket statement as i did. I have read every single page of this thread and more often than not, when someone was having issues, it seemed like they were doing something that was not recommended by Mikey. Not saying that you did anything wrong but i truly believe a majority of the issues people are having are due to not following directions. I've only had one issue when i updated from 2.7 to 2.8 but by going back and doing a full wipe and fresh install again, i fixed my issue. I'm just trying to stress the point for people to read a little more and assume less. Best of luck with your issue though.

That being said, i will leave this statement that Mikey has posted on the very 1st post of this thread for everyone to see and hopefully remember.

"Problems after you flash?:

PLEASE DO NOT REPORT PROBLEMS IN THIS THREAD UNTIL you've done a full wipe and fresh install to see if that cures it. I know I should really just do like most devs and proclaim REQUIRES FULL WIPE/FRESH INSTALL on every version. That saves me a lot of headaches but I know what a PITA a fresh install can be even with MyBackup or Titanium at your disposal. So it never hurts to try just a flash without a full wipe, but if you run into any HINT of a problem... anything at all... don't report the problem in this thread until you've tried a full wipe and fresh install first to see if that cures the problem!

Note regarding tweaks: don't flash tweaks or themes on top unless you KNOW the tweak/theme is compatible with the ICS framework (as of this writing, most are NOT compatible - ask the developer."

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
I'm putting all the ingredients into 3.4 now. What I'm going to do is have the stock kernel at 1.5 baked in so if you flash, that's what you get: stock 1.5 kernel with my ramdisk mods as before. Then I'll have ONE overclocking option for 1.89 and it'll install the EvilZ kernel at 1.89. Simple as that. If 1.89 runs for you: fine. If not, just keep the ROM as installed and don't flash the OC. For right now, I think that's the best of both worlds.

While EvilZ seems to work for 75% of us with no issues, I'm a believer that the ROM default should work for 100%. After much research, I now also believe that custom kernels are the ONLY way to properly OC which is why I will no longer offer options to OC the stock kernel as we were doing before. Let it run at 1.5. Running it at 1.7 or 1.8 as we were before has very little if any benefit, can actually CAUSE lag and stuttering, and was causing disappearing texts and other issues.

So I think the stock 1.5 with the option to OC to 1.89 is the way to go for now. You can pick your poison. Zarboz is working on EvilZ to eliminate the graphics glitches too, so it should only get better from here.

Hi. I'm probably just slow..but where is the Skype installer??? :eek:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DZLRULZ:
Not sure exactly why but setting the min processor speed in post_boot.sh to 540 has been flawless wrt audio over headphones and Bluetooth with power amp. No more glitches at all. I set it for awake and sleep, and copied the threshold from awake to sleep. OC option 2. Any speed less than 540 will eventually pop and click/glitch.

Any idea Mike?

Not irritated at all BTW! I'm just taking it all in and trying to figure out where to go next. I had just started building 3.4 and then Zarboz pinged me and now we're chatting and batting ideas back and forth and he's compiling a "mild OC" version of his kernel for me. I'm actually a bit overwhelmed right now. I feel like there are so many new and cool cookie jars I almost don't know which to put my hand in first! Might take a few versions to really settle on the best kernel/OC combo but I can promise you we'll get there. For those who don't want OC: just stick with 3.1 while we play and break new ground. :) Stay tuned.

Facebook sucks my battery like a vampire bat and never works properly for long, we definitely need a solid alternative. I've tried many of the others and they lack the functionality needed for me. So for me it's either live with it and be pissed or uninstall and lose biz. I'll chose the former

What if you go to Settings, Accounts and Sync, and turn off automatic sync for Facebook? Personally, the first thing I do is freeze Facebook entirely. There is nothing about Facebook that is worth even wasting the space of its icon in my app drawer! All I do is try to keep it updated for you guys.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kilokk:
I can appreciate that...check it out though...before I started completely removing it and all its minions, fb mess anger , friend stream, fb for HTC Sense.... What I'm getting at is maybe if you remove all the extra "bloat BS" it won't have such an ill effect on your battery. Like Mikey suggested to, turn off auto sync and you may actually see a significant difference... for that app anyway.

I would try renaming your apk's for Friend stream, friend stream widget, FacebookAPIEngine (may just be FacebookEngine now) Facebook for HTC Sense and running with that for awhile to see how you feel about the results and performance.

just so i understand.......i downloaded 3.2 from here on to my pc , my question is do i have that new kernel or not?

and im s-on
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] long_tall_texan:
Yes new kernel is in 3.2 and 3.3. However, if you are S-On, it may or may not take the new kernel when you flash the ROM. You may need to use Flash Image Gui, or ADBto flash the kernel.

Sent from my Meanie ICS LTEvo
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CBRRider:
3.2 and 3.3 have different versions of the EvilZ kernel, so go with 3.3. As stated above, use Flash Image GUI to flash the kernel. I'm on S-ON and it works great.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Xpertss:
Exactly how would you do that? If you don't mind explaining

Thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gianmarco00:
FWIW, I'm on S-ON too and was able to flash the ROM and my kernel was updated as well without having to use Flash Image.

HBoot 1.15.0000

I just received my replacement EVO 4g LTE and it happen to have Hboot 1.15.0000. My question is what is the best root method for this Hboot and what are pit falls with this Hboot. I apologize in advance for the newbie and outer placed questions.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CBRRider:
Download 3.3, put it on your phone, run Flash Image GUI and flash the kernel image from the .zip. Then when it's done, reboot to recovery and flash the ROM. After that, you will have 3.3 and the new kernel.

You can also download and flash 3.3 via the OTA updater first and then run Flash Image GUI as I did. Just reboot system and not into recovery after.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RHall1340:
I had the same issue with my replacement. Looks like the new phones may be including the latest updates which sucks. I used RegawMOD:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1690919

Simple app which roots, flashes TWRP, etc all automatically for you. But you keep S-ON which means you have to flash kernels and such using alternative methods.

Ever since 2.9 or 3.0, I am randomly having issues with the drop down notification bar being empty. I am unable to see anything in notifications and quick settings.

I am able to see the notifications at the top of the screen, but they don't seem to update. I am unable to type when this happens.

Usually after a moment or so, the notifications drop down appears to refresh and things go as normal. However, the last three times this has happened, I have had to restart the phone.

Any ideas?

What version of H-boot do you have?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gianmarco00:
1.12
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CBRRider:
Well that would be why. Us less fortunate that are running 1.15 have to flash the kernel separately. At least that's what I'm guessing.

Battery life isn't an issue with me. My battery is really good actually. My problem is that Facebook freezes so randomly and so many times and then I eventually get a massage saying it's not responding. It only started doing that in these last two builds.

Same here, it's not really that bad but if it weren't running battery would be better. I uninstalled it and am using flipster and Friendcaster pro. Gonna see which is better because fb app is guano

Hey Mikey,

Any chance you could add a Long-Press Back Button App Kill? Not sure if it's feasible, but I sure do miss it from my old CM. Also, anyone else finding Chrome to run horribly slowly, bog down the phone's resources and freeze? It's generally horrible, IMHO.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] crzycrkr:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] leenypost:
One more thing...

Original question is can I use stock Kernal with latest version of this ROM???

Also, does this ROM improve upon the dreaded "LOADING" message that happens to me so frequently when returning to the home screen on the stock ROM? I can't take it anymore, really makes me wish I had held out for the S3....

I have not rooted this phone yet but the "LOADING" nonsense is tempting me to.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] leenypost:
Thank you... Does this ROM have the dreaded "loading" upon return to the home screen often?

And I can't run stock with the latest or you don't recommend it? I would like to try the new kernal, just wondering if I don't like it can I flash stock kernal and just keep going or will I be forced to flash 3.1 in order to use stock kernal?

EDIT: I see you edited and answered my second question. Thank you again!! I'll be rooting tonight.

My 2 cents just in case I can help someone I have been running mean ROM's sense version 2. O have flash them dirty flash to what I thought was clean the very best performance I've gotten was when I did a super clean install.

Step 1

Remove primary SD card and replace it with an old card

Step 2

Format external SD format internal SD reboot into recovery flash super wipe then flash rom and only the rom after the install of the rom is done wipe and reboot

Step 3 most important

Run the setup when you reach your home screen turn the screen on all the time and DO NOT TOUCH let phone set for10 15 minutes so that the phone can do it's thing. First thing that phone wants to do is update all the Google stuff.

I love this Rom but I learned the hard way you want this rom to run good the cleaner the better :)

I have issues with both of the OneLouder apps, FriendCaster and TweetCaster were so spot on in GB but ever since ICS the FB and Twitter API's are HORRIBLE about passing the alerts along. So you have to login/launch the app to kick start the notifications of updates, new posts and tweets. They rely solely on that and OneLouder is either hesitant or unable to recode to get the alerts and data any other way.

I've gotten around the no-insurance issue by activating a different phone for a few days, then when I re-activate the phone I want to put insurance on, I make it very clear that I want to add the insurance to the phone. With the Evo LTE being so new, they will probably think it is a first-time activation, and will likely add it.

Hell, earlier this year, I got insurance added to a Touch Pro2 that I originally activated 2+ years ago. If they tell you they can't add it on the phone, go along with it. Then, call back or chat with them a few hours later and tell them that you forgot to tell the previous rep to ad the insurance. That has never failed for me.
