Possible issue?

Notice after a day or so running the oc kernel, my phone gets stuck in the HTC screen... I can get into bootloader or recovery fine...have to fastboot boot.IMG for it to work again....

Running 4.4.4

you can flash the 1.728 in the /SDCARD/Meanrom.ICS folder and it is supposed to keep the tweaks.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kf2m:
I know I saw a few people having issues with reboots that start happening around 7pm (and am in some cases). Well today I tried using the recorder in SystemTuner. That was a bust.. When the phone reboots the logcat isn't written so no dice on that. I was hoping to avoid having to tether then run an adb logcat, and redirecting the output to a file but that looks like how it is going to go. If that doesn't work I'll maybe try adbwireless. So we'll see what happens.

Just wondering what the difference is with the new camera. It seems identical to the one in 4.4.4?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mhmobile:
Thanks, I was running 4.4.2 and had some weird issues that I have never encountered running any of Mikey's ROM's. I dirty flashed to 4.4.4 and ran the Evil kernel without issue, even up to 2.1. Usually left it at 1.8. Does anyone know what tweaks are lost by doing this? Are they features that make the ROM run smooth and have better battery life etc. or do you lose tweaks that are obvious like the previous apps tweak? When I was running the evil kernel, I chose not to OC the GPU, not sure if that is one of the reasons that I wasn't having issues?

Thanks,

Im running 4.5 and Im trying to flash the oc kernel. I am trying to flash the 1.7 zip but it wont work I keep getting black screen. My problem may be that I dont know which kernel goes to which version because I have all of the zips on my sd card. I had the 1.8 kernel on but my phone didnt like it.

Mikey,

For those of us who have phones that can handle the OC'ing that you had in 4.4.2, is there going to be an option to go higher in the future?

I upgraded to 4.5 even though 4.4.2 was running so smoothly. Previous quadrants were ~6600 and now I'm down to 6100. While that's still great, I wouldn't mind the higher benchmarks if possible.

Has anybody tried using the "Youtube Streaming Fix"? This is when you go into EPST, Advanced, RSPT/HTTP Proxy Settings and setting the HTTP Proxy to 0.0.0.0 port 0. As soon as that is changed, Youtube gives "Cannot connect to server" error. Go back in to EPST and put the sprint proxy back and Youtube works.

I tried it in Meanrom 4.4.5 and 4.5, and it breaks Youtube. I have not tried it in earlier builds so I don't know if it is only a problem on a 2.13 based rom or if earlier builds had the problem.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kanizzle:
I use chrome.... But tried stock an encountered the same problem
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Are you browsing CNN? They've had java errors on their website for the last two weeks that will do that to almost any browser (I think only Dolphin is immune) on any device, any ROM! Bad java code on the CNN site makes the browser just quit. Happens on our phone, the Evo 3D, Kindle Fire, everything I've tested.

It works if you leave the port numbers (554 and 8085) alone and just change the ip addresses to 0.0.0.0. That mod has always been problematic to YouTube and Google Play. Personally, I leave the sprint stuff in there because I've always gotten better performance leaving it alone. It varies wildly though depending on your location. It can be either a positive or negative depending on where you are geographically.

It happens on any website. After a couple of minutes it freezes and phone becomes completely unusable for about a minute. Sometimes it reboots.

I've experienced this well since about a month or so ago. I only use Chrome, so can't speak for other browsers. It seems to occur when loading around 6 tabs at the same time. Sometimes takes a few minutes to be triggered.

I know, I know dumb question but I have to ask. In this Rom there was mention of multi tasking tweak. .ow is this a tweak that is automatic? Or do I enable it? Also does this tweak just means I can surf the net, while I play Pandora? And by doing this, does the multi task just have these two apps as an example. Flow more smoothly?

By the way, battery on 4.4.4 has been great. I am at 32 hours with 29 percent left and 3 hours screen on. Slightly inflated because I forgot to charge it last night but it will make it through the rest of my day no issues.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cruise350:
I don't want to stir anything up here, but it seems to me all of the browser problems started around the time the multi tasking fixes went in. Could this be related?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lucidox:
That's hard to say without more investigation. I'd also think that with Sense's many multitasking issues and browsers being capable of pushing memory usage to the phone's limits, it may be a combination of things that caused it.

After looking through Flex' thread (which uses a different implementation for fixing multitasking), I see a string of users having issues with FC in Chrome. I don't see any posts regarding locking up though, which is a bit more severe IMO, as the whole OS becomes unresponsive while the browser persists in memory.

What browser? I'm using both stock and ICS+ browsers and I can't get it to have any problem at all. If anyone can find a site and tell me exactly what to click on to reproduce a problem (step by step), I can get a logcat and see what is going on. But all the sites I'm visiting work perfectly. I fiddled around for a while on the ESPN Fantasy Football site but I know nothing about that site and I couldn't find any player bios (at least without signing up).

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lucidox:
Try doing the following, which reproduces it for me on 4.5:

Navigate to http://m.pinterest.com/ in Chrome

Quickly open many of the articles in new tabs (I think I opened around 6)

Try switching between the newly loading tabs

On a side note, if you can manage to reach quick tasks amidst the lock up (sometimes takes a few minutes), you can swipe off Chrome to end its task, and the phone becomes responsive once again.

I haven't used the OTA updater yet, but I wanted to give it a try. Just wondering how it works? If I am on 4.2 and I use it to update to 4.5 is that ok? or do I have to be on 4.4. Also does it just install over the old rom, and does it wipe or not wipe?

Hey all quick question, so the zip to oc on 4.5 do we flash through twrp or can we just use flash image GUI?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:
I believe Mikey has instructions in post #3 for S-on users.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mann75:
The updater is very easy...all you do is open the updater app, allow the update and it ask you if you want to wipe data. It automatically has wipe cache as default. If you already have the up to date recovery you can skip, that update and just do the Rom. It will download and will reset to recovery and flash the newer Rom automatically.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] drmclove69:

Give us some info so we can help. What did you flash? Did you do a full wipe? What were you on before you flashed? Did you flash just the ROM or anything else after? Are you s-on? S-off? And no, if you see the HTC screen, you're not bricked.

READ POST #3 UNDER OVERCLOCKING!!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kanizzle:
I'm S-On. I always use flash gui to flash the roms. Everything went as usual but it never got passed the HTC screen. After about an hour I booted into recovery and tried to restore a backup but it still wont boot passed the HTC. I even tried a re-flash but it didnt work.

Oh yeah Im on 4.4 and was flashing 4.5

Thanks for helping Mikey!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
You mean you just tried to flash the ROM and you didn't also try to flash the overclocking? I don't recommend Flash Image GUI: it can cause trouble than it's worth when the ROM itself flashes the kernel without it. I don't know what kind of state you got yourself in with Flash Image GUI but maybe the wrong kernel got flashed. I recommend you look in post 3 under how to recover from bad kernel flashes if you're s-on: by fastbooting the boot.img from the ROM and then just flashing the ROM.

Mike
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] voodamn:
Agree..I did upgrade to 4.5 but I prefer 4.4.2 because of the OC to 1.89Ghz so I flash it back to 4.4.2 so for future upgrade, it would be nice if you can include a zip for the OC 1.89Ghz for those whose phone can handle it..thanks!!!

I am S-on with hboot 1.9 and the instruction in post #3 worked for me to get the O/C kernal. Just flashing the rom zip does not. Have to let the rom settle in then flash the o/c zip does.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kanizzle:
Hey mikey for future reference are you saying not to use flash gui?

So should i extract the kernal zip from the rom zip, then flash them in that order?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Yes. I think it's easier and safer for everyone not to use it. It can be used if you know what you are doing but it is going to be less error-prone if you just follow the instructions in post 1 (no OC) and 3 (OC). For example, if you use the overclock-1728.zip and you have Flash Image GUI install the kernel from that ZIP, you'll be in all sorts of trouble because there are other things in that ZIP that need to be flashed. Safer just to let the kernel installer do its thing since there's really no need for Flash Image GUI on this ROM. It may also conflict with the kernel installer that is in the ROM and also in the overclock-1728.zip. If you run the ROM zip or overclock zip and then use Flash Image GUI, you may get into conflicts since both the ROM and the overclock zips set things up to flash the kernel on the following boot. Safer to just use the flashable zips as they were intended: to be flashed on their own.

P.S. I'm not saying it does conflict... just that there is more potential for problems because the ROM and it's overclock counterpart are specifically designed so you don't have to use it.
