nothing is perfect but this rom is very nice. It only goes up from here.

What did the five fingers say to the face? Sa la ppa.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jaimemex:
How fast is this ROM? Hows battery life?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
No one will know battery life until you have your own set up and running for 72 hrs. Anyone who tells you different doesn't know what they are talking about. It's only been up for 12 hrs. How fast, who knows but it's pretty dang swift.

[EVO 4G Android Development] MizzouBrent:
Yeah I figured but I was a bit surprised at how much longer. Figured it was worth mentioning for someone who might not give it enough time to boot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] souleman:
Anyone else having a problem actually getting root privilege to work? Typing su into terminal just hangs. Let it sit for about 5 minutes and never got a notification asking to grant or deny root access from supersu. Had a problem like this on RemICS and the solution was to NOT upgrade the su binary, but I never did that,

Note: Re-flashed rom, and did fix permissions before booting up.. Now was able to get root access in terminal. Haven't tested other root-required apps, but that seems to have fixed something.
[EVO 4G Android Development] TC_Racutt:
ROM running amazingly! All my apps happily reinstalled
[EVO 4G Android Development] cbucz24:
So, along with everyone else thanks papa! I feel speshul, I got my name and a photo in the OP. Maybe I'll make sure my lens is cleaner next time :p

Version 2.0.3 works great! Only had one blurp...using the dark mods which look great, my gmail did a few FC yesterday. But its been fine today. Must have been a settling...

Very impressive, can't say I've seen many dev's throw out testing to ppl like that. It was a learning experience
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
Is there any way of increasing the volume of the Touch sounds and screen lock sound.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] Papa Smurf151:
Not that I know of. Other than hitting those buttons on the side of ur phone. I think they call them volume buttons. Lmao

But for real they are ogg files and I've never messed with them other than optimizing them apk manager

[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
Yeah volume is all the way up already.

Thanks

Ok, i replaced the .ogg files in system/media/audio/ui , set permissions, reboot and all is well. Thanks for steering me in the right direction Papa Smurf.......
[EVO 4G Android Development] NewMC:
Thanks for the opportunity to test PS, for me the test rom has been running great since Saturday morning. I'm home and back in the office today, flashing 2.0.3 right now, going to try to flash over top and hopefully it will fix the process system error mssg, which is the only issue I've had. Just wanted to say thanks, I haven't seen many devs that push a test out to everyday users and then talk them through specific issues over personal chat, you rock!

The only other thing I have is any issue with is a2sd, I don't think this is a rom problem though so I will keep trying a few things here and there. Who knows, maybe upgrading to 2.0.3 will resolve the issue. Thanks again!
[EVO 4G Android Development] CRIME INC.:
Thanks for the mention in the op. We should all be thanking you for letting us test this amazing rom. :thumbup::D

[EVO 4G Android Development] SportyRydr:
Papa, I'm running 2.0.3 now, just got it flashed and setup today. All seems to be working great. I've noticed one weird issue though. When I do a manual reboot, if the phone is plugged in, it boot loops. In between the boots, the splash screen doesn't seem to be displayed as long as when it's booting normally. Anyway, when I unplug it, it stops looping, and the splash is displayed for a longer time (like what's normal for your ROM), and then it proceeds to the animation.

I'm really curious if the others who've been experiencing boot loops also had their phone plugged in?

Overall, though, this is a great ROM! I've set it up as my daily, and will see how it goes. Thanks for all the work you've put into this! :good:
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
Same here, when it does that i unplug the phone, pull battery, put it back boot....
[EVO 4G Android Development] Papa Smurf151:
yes that is a known issue with ics. For some reason it never happens to me but who knows....there is always a chance
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
Sorry didn't see your post. I go to bed early, up at 2am. I'll try again tomorrow and take the screenshot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] allhill:
version 2.0.3 running well now :) thanks papa!

but for smurfmod setting is not working or i miss something?
[EVO 4G Android Development] kendallc123:
It's in the "What doesn't work" section :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Papa Smurf151:
well you missed in the OP where it said that smurfed settings does not work lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] dgatlin:
PS...

Is there a trick to get the wallpapers app to work...

I flash it in recovery and it says everything went well...but I dont see it anywhere...

Unless I am blind...which is possible...

Everything else it running awesome...

Thanks,

dgatlin
[EVO 4G Android Development] Papa Smurf151:
they are apps that dont go into your app drawer. If you go to change your wallpaper you will see all the different wall papers and live wall papers in there
[EVO 4G Android Development] ss12108:
Doh!
[EVO 4G Android Development] dgatlin:
I found them...i was looking for more folders than what was showing up...

Thanks...
[EVO 4G Android Development] TC_Racutt:
Runs absolutely great. Noticed some things:

On topic:

Youtube is sorta glitchy, guessing because of the phone specs

Rotation is slow, again, phone specs

Bootloops, issue on my end

Photosphere not working, as in it launches, but not usable. Bad specs I'm guessing

Off topic:

The ICS People app is horrible. Miss the gingerbread one. Any replacement?
[EVO 4G Android Development] enigma2u2:
Got it installed this morning and been running all day with no issues. Battery life is good. Only light use but nothing appears to be draining in the background so should be able to get a full day or more with no problem. Only u/v with vipermod by 50 and all other settings are stock. There is 1 thing that I can't figure out and that is Darky Smurfmod. I see where it added some additional apps but I don't see any other changes. I'm not sure what it was supposed to do and I looked back through the thread for a description but didn't find anything. I had already switched the theme to Purple Kush so I don't know if that would interfere. I know I probably missed something somewhere so I apologize in advance. The rom is awesome and thanks again for letting me be a tester.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
Open play store, should be inverted now, also mms and some others.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Goatshaver:
So I flashed this a couple days ago and it ran great for a day then I was having a fc that wouldn't go away and had to pull my battery. I reformatted my SD card, partition to ext4. Reflashed the ROM and went to SU and asked to update the binary and said it couldn't be found.

Should I reflash? How can I fix this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Papa Smurf151:
Inverted gapps, talk, email, reader, contacts, g+, market, Calender, mms and I'm sure I missed a few.

Prob half of which u don't use

XDA Moderator
[EVO 4G Android Development] NewMC:
Papa & ShagNasty have already answered your question as to what was changed with Darky Smurfmod. I can confirm for you that if you had already themed the rom or changed Apex theme you would most likely not notice the inverted GApps. This will depend on the theme of course, I am using Mixer-ics from the link in the OP, I have not applied the Darky Smurfmod because mine were already inverted within the theme.

PS - I think I have come to realize that my perceived problem with a2sd may only be a matter of me being an app hound(the nice version). I did a NAND backup and have flagged appdata to move to sd-ext with a2sd, this should free up another 230Mb of system memory. What is your anticipated outcome?
[EVO 4G Android Development] radioman42001:
Will not go to sleep??

:confused:

I have installed v2.0.3 and it flies. Every app works like it is supposed to. Very smooth. I have not added any other mod to it as I wanted to try it for a day first.

I have 1 small issue. I set display to go off after 30 seconds so as to save battery life, but the EVO will not sleep. It gets very dim, but will not go out?

If I push the power button, it immediately goes to sleep.

Any ideas or setting I missed?

edit - wipe, wipe, wipe, reflash, all works well......fast, smooth........Thank you.
[EVO 4G Android Development] TC_Racutt:
Wow just noticed the battery life is absolutely insane now. By mid day, I am usually already at half battery, and thats after very light use. I have already streamed some music and youtube today, as well as my normal activities. I am only at 78 percent!
[EVO 4G Android Development] enigma2u2:
After my post I did a Nand backup and went to test the update on Jellybread. When I went back to restore it would not. I then tried to restore a couple other backups just to see if they would. A couple did and a few did not. I have a suspicion that it had something to do with wiping sd-ext. I did a recovery log if someone can make heads or tales of it. http://pastebin.com/Cm3ryF5M
[EVO 4G Android Development] 88exp88:
Papa, best easter egg ever. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] chrisstl:
I've been on v2.0.3 since Papa released it and have not experienced any force closes, issues, or anything else negative... simply a fan-freaking-tastic ROM! Thank you! :thumbup:

My settings: undervolted all by 50 in Vipermod, governor set to smartassV2 245/768 with SetCPU, everything else set to default.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmh033089:
Do you have the mod/tweak that allows high end games?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SportyRydr:
Not receiving text notifications

Papa, I'm not sure if this is related to this ROM, but I've never had this problem with any other ROM. The texts come in, but they don't appear in the status bar and notification drawer. I'm getting the notification SOUNDS (but I use Ringo, so that may facilitate that), though. If the messaging app is running (i.e., in the foreground), the notifications DO display in the status bar and noti drawer. Reason I'm asking is because the custom GB ROMs I've used have an option under CyanogenMod/Advanced Settings | Performance to "Lock messaging app in memory". I wanted to try that for my situation, but I don't find it in this ROM. Will it be a SmurfMod setting? Or do you/anybody have any other suggestions?

Thanks,

SportyRydr
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
Wow, very nicely done.........:good:
[EVO 4G Android Development] SportyRydr:
Looks like my issue was caused by Ringo. I had restored it from a backup, rather than installing it from scratch. After deleting all my messages and data, which didn't work, I uninstalled Ringo and rebooted, and text notifications are working perfectly now. Ringo may just need to be installed fresh on ICS rather than restored...

LOVING THIS ROM!! :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kman355:
Is there a way to get rid of the lock screen rotate? It annoys me, I hate having landscape anything. Other than that, great rom. Smooth for ics (coming from jb) and good battery life. No fc's or anything.

Only complaint is the long boot time. Sits at the evo screen for a few then goes to the boot anim.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Papa Smurf151:
I hate landscape anything as well. If u go into rotation settings and just keep zero checked it turns all off

Edit-i just realized why the landscape mode button doesn't work lol. When I built I forgot to take out the mod in frameworks that was in before the button got added to settings. I will fix and release a patch later today when I get home

[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
I have increased the volume of the system sounds (touch sounds. camera sounds etc).

If anyone is interested I’ve created a flashable zip (attached below).

As always make a nandroid backup first......

Edit: Updated to v1.1. (camera click was to loud)

Edit: added version 2 which has a low volume camera click sound.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Papa Smurf151:
Very cool. I will snag and add to 2 post as well as next incremental update to rom. With credits of course.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Laserbeak43:
How did you fix this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] WickedDaze:
Hey, just wanted to say it works great, its just the right vol. level.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
Thanks, i posted v1.1 because the camera click was much louder than the other sounds. Also for those who like a very low camera sound v2.

---------- Post added at 03:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:13 PM ----------

Thanks, grab version 1.1, i had to lower the camera click sound , it was to much louder than the others....
[EVO 4G Android Development] TC_Racutt:
So when there is an update, do we have to reflash it and do we lose all of our apps, or is there an update zip that we can flash so we can keep everything?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
The only difference is v1.1 i adjusted 1 file (camera click) to be the same volume as the rest.

V2 is only if you like an even lower camera sound.

Download to sd, clear cache, flash.

This is only sound files, you loose nothing......

There wil be no updates after Papa approves of the sound levels, if you want something different PM me. Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitch1183:

[EVO 4G Android Development] dgcruzing:
Flashed this afternoon..

so far all is well.. will run it in and let you know how it goes. .

thanks for the work..

Edit: been a busy android day today.. with the phone and a media box.. but things worked out well..

Just needed to do a "fix permissions" to get the a2sd to work..

but otherwise its been blazing fast all day..

Also I am not getting lockups on the browsers like I was on the last version..

I will run three tomorrow and see how I go..Stock, Chrome, Firebox and see if it locks..

as it was given me a hard for the last few weeks..

Also GPS seems to be working better for me.. as i am at a disadvantage due to working here in China.. (painful)

Will load the VPN up tomorrow and see how we go.. as need this working to bust through the GCFW..

The only other thing I was trying to do today was load up some new Radio's on it..

but they dont seem to be sticking..

I might have to have a play with the Hboot side of things as I am on a older version from using milkmilk roms.

So most of the talk was to stick with these..

but as they say.. if it an't broke dont try to fix it..
[EVO 4G Android Development] iamonyx:
is anyone else's phone not vibrating when receiving a text message or email? yes, i went in and turned the vibrate function on in the text messaging options as well as label settings in gmail, but it still doesn't vibrate. not sure if it vibrates when getting a phone call or not. haven't gotten a call since flashing.

other than that, i am loving it. phenomenal work!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
Working fine here, did you change your volume till the vibrate icon shows on the status bar.....
[EVO 4G Android Development] iamonyx:
yup. if my phone is on vibrate only, vibration works. but if my volume is on, it doesn't seem to.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
Try checking the box in system settings-sound that says vibrate and ring. Then change notication ringtone to silent ringtone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] iamonyx:
checked too. but for the hell of it, i unchecked it, rechecked it, and changed my notification sound, and all is good now :good::D
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:

[EVO 4G Android Development] Papa Smurf151:
Sorry ive been absent guys. I am putting together a few packages for updates and an update to the rom itself. My phone went to the shop last night due to a broken screen and broken camera. So when im ready im gonna need a few testers to make sure it works since I obviously cant test for myself
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
Count me in.....:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] cbucz24:
ughh, broken screen...surprised you didnt change it yourself, it looked easy? I had to look it up, when I bought mine on ebay i bid on a few with broken screens and had to research replacement costs and how to change it...

when its ready, Ill test again. Im home today :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] Papa Smurf151:
i could have done it myself but thats what insurance from best buy is all about. Its free that way. Just have a loaner phone for three days or so
[EVO 4G Android Development] cbucz24:
OMG, insurance from best buy...those rats denied a claim stating my phone had "water" damage...ummm, no it didnt? in a letter from their "techs" it displayed signs of corrosion which only could have happened from direct water contact. Which we are sorry to inform, is not covered by your purchased warranty.

Our staff would love to assist you in purchasing a new phone....

lol, good for you man..get it when you can cuz they dont always help!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Papa Smurf151:
yeah they told me they cover anything except if its lost. water and all is covered. We shall c lol

Im upgrading to the sgs3 on black friday so we shall c
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
Hey guys, its me again, i had a request and thought i would share here. If you like Galaxy sounds here you go.

Make a nandroid back-up.

Clear cache as always. It will not wipe your apps.

Then flash the attachment........
[EVO 4G Android Development] iamonyx:
so odd question that i've never seen asked on any roms... does this rom support USB on-the-go?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
If your asking if you can use your sd card as file storage then yes......
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
Hopes for smurfmod on d2spr :victory: ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] iamonyx:
not quite. usb on-the-go technology lets you use an adapter cable to plug a usb thumb-drive into your device and read files off of it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
Sweet. Duhno someone else will have to answer that one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
Nope requires kernel support which the included kernel does not
[EVO 4G Android Development] iamonyx:
damn :/ any idea of any compatible kernels? Only one that i was able to find that claimed to support USB Host mode was AnthraX, which i don't think is compatible with this rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Notorious:
nope no kernels on this phone support it except for anthrax which claims to support it but anthrax is only for sense gingerbread roms
[EVO 4G Android Development] Papa Smurf151:

[EVO 4G Android Development] cbucz24:
Yea yea, Ive still been using yours as a daily. But, I was playing with other ROMs earlier and when I nand back, I broke talk...its fc now...oh well, I'll have to do a fresh install again.

Of course I didn't notice until I had to use it...lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] dgcruzing:
Ok, Struck some problems..

Looked like A2sd was not working. (Was working on the last version..Ex4 )

but before I loaded up this version, I didn't wipe the sd-ext partition.. (was I suppose to?)

Anyway loaded Rom, loaded nand backup of Data files only, played with it.. all fine..

Noticed no apps gone to a2sd, so I thought a I would go in and do a permissions fix.. See if it fixed it.. rebooted fine.. (Late last night) and looked at it this morning.. (Had checked SU to make sure it was working)..a2sd was working but the terminal command had not done an auto load of apps to the sd-ext..

I could do it manually, so I confirmed that it was working..

So being the bright spark I am .. I though I would go in and do a wipe of the sd-ext, wipe of cache and DV cache and re-boot..(to run the a2sd script again), Humm bad idea.. got stuck in a boot loop..left it sitting there for an hour on the "updating Android-starting applications" screen.. finally pulled the Batt and its a re-install again..and try over.. Just install the Rom again and setting it up..so will report back if any problems..

Question.. Should I restore the Nand before I do the a2sd terminal commands or after? - might try it this time..

On the positive side of things.. as per other post.. all browsers worked well on the way to work on the train and no lockups.. and it was actually flying with multi-tasking and flipping between net surfing, translators and messenger programs. so once I get this a2sd sorted out, I will be loving it again.

Edit: ok, Seems the script is not doing an auto shift of the apps..

I have confirmed the a2sd is working as can shift them manually.

I have SU undated and working.

Just reloaded the Rom, re-did the a2sd terminal commands.. no apps moved..

Loaded reloading a backup from appmonster backup (as got problems with the back from the Nand)

Manually moved them all now.. Am I the only person with this problem?

Did a little deranged smurf get in to my phone with out me knowing?
[EVO 4G Android Development] the.emilio:
Did you follow the instructions given in the OP?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dgcruzing:
Sure did..

First flash Rom was fine..

The nand restore (data only) was a problem.. Anyway got it all set now..

Will do a boot when i get home and try to install an app and see if it autos go to sd..
[EVO 4G Android Development] tonio3600:
Is any one else having problems with recording a videos... it records but the playback is messed up
[EVO 4G Android Development] kendallc123:

[EVO 4G Android Development] tonio3600:
Oh OK... thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] ShagNasty2:
Use "Videocam illusion" from the market.
[EVO 4G Android Development] NewMC:
You said you wiped sd-ext, to my understanding that should have wiped any apps that had previously been stored there by a2sd. As far as I know, they are stored there, whether it be ext2, ext3, or ext4. If I'm wrong someone please slap me around!

Prior to all problems though your a2sd may have been working but it didn't appear so because Davlik and appdata was still using space on internal app storage. I thought I was having issues with a2sd too after flashing updated SmurfMod version but it turns out that it was just those two things. I have enough apps installed that I was getting 'low storage space' warnings so NAND backup and then moved Appdata to sd-ext and it is just as fast and no lag so I've left it there. That may be user-specific and I just got lucky, not sure...I left Davlik on internal figuring that cache would be needed more/faster than stored data.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dgcruzing:
Thanks for reply,

I have them all moved now.. So will it let settle for a few days before i play around with it..
