[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solitudelover89:
Hi Guys I bought My NEO V About a month now It was amazing till I found out about this Custom **** roms and Kernels So I Rooted My Phone After 5 time Fails Now I have 3 kind of kernels and 3 custom Roms but non of theme works And my phone doesn't have android for a week now I do every steps of fast boot and installing Roms and wipes But when I reset My phone Nothing Happens again the kernel pic comes waits and resets again !!!!

MY Roms : AOKP JB , gapps-jb-20120726-signed , holo_haida-ms6_fixed

My Kernels : cm9 , knigtelf , cm4

HELP ME PLEASE! these Roms aren't more than 100 MB is i right or WRONG ????
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freaktechz:
Before proceeding further, i would like to know whether you have locked Bootloader or Unlocked Bootloader?

Custom ROM's size is normal, nothing wrong in it.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberScopes:
1st,

What is the best cpu speed for great performance and excellent battery life???

2nd,

What is the Best Governor for battery life and performance???

3rd,

What is the best IO Scheduler for battery life and performance?

I know there are a lot of threads with these questions, but they didnt have the best answers.

Im currently on 356mhz min and 1.3ghz max with governor performance and IO scheduler sio.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdojoin:
Hahaha.. Every Q u've asked depends on the phone. But i think this is the setup for every1 & infact almost every rom had this setup by default.

Governor: smartassV2, ondemand

I/o : sio, deadline

Freq : min-200Ghz, max-1200Ghz

Kernel is up to u. But fyi, its not all up to the kernel. The rom hav thier own role to achieve whats best. Again, everything's depends on the phone.;)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ridder215215:
I prefer the governor badass. Performance locks it in its highest clock speed, so it´ll go through your battery really fast. As for the overclock, I have it at 1600 when gaming and 1200 when not gaming (SetCPU).
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberScopes:
ok.
[HTC Amaze 4G] LeGenDz R3DeaDz:
Nobody have an idea why I cant have my phone recognize by the pc and the phone when i plug it in???? inb4 : another cable, another computer, uninstall the driver etc. all did this method many times. I am with videotron and the only ruu is a .exe and I think my bootloader have to be locked but how to locked it if the computer do not recognize it ?????? Im out of breathe I have spend many hours trying to solve my problem searching the net but no luck. But fortunately I have succeeds one time but after a reboot it rebegins.
[HTC Amaze 4G] LeGenDz R3DeaDz:
After some reflexion my conclusion is I dont knoow why but it seems that the phone think that the internal sd card card is my micro sd card and vice versa .

P.S.: it is normal to have the folder androide.secure on the ext_sdcard but not on sdcard?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Nshih422:
Does the computer even detect that you have anything connected to the computer?

My android.secure folder is on (internal) sdcard. The ext_sdcard does not have that folder present.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:
Are you booted in fastboot?
[HTC Amaze 4G] LeGenDz R3DeaDz:
yes but it detect a unrecognize usb device. And i think that fastboot is on in speedrom 7.5 but I put the old htc setting and disable it but it did nothing.

Thanks for posting this BigDaddy! I'll add it to my subscribed threads list so I can chime in and help when I can. Been running MeanROM since day 1 on my Evo LTE and ran it on my 3d as well. Lets keep some of the clutter out of the ROM thread and make this Q&A thread a great resource.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] icethegreat:
Great job on it. Well needed thread. Hopefully it helps. :thumbup:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] krobinso2295:
Do I have to flash every single update to receive all of the features, or can I flash the first release and then the most recent?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] icethegreat:
Quick answer: Flashing the latest meanrom will give you ALL the features & changes.

Long answer: read the OP, verify your twrp version, verify your hboot & whether your s-off or s-on then reread the op (link in the first post of this thread)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:
Now we need a theme thread. I can name 4 themers that have seperate threads going. It would be convenient to get one repository going for all of them.

Just a suggestion.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] aigoo:
didnt see in OP, but by default is this rom set to performance or battery?

Question about Kernels

I have recently taken the plunge and unlocked, rooted, and installed TWRP. I am currently running a stock ROM but it is very outdated.

I really like MeanROM and am ready to give it a shot but am apprehensive because I am S-ON.

It looks like the ROM flashes a new Kernel on install for us S-ON folks but my question is, what if I decide to try another ROM after Mean has changed the Kernel? Should the Kernel be flashed back to stock, and if so, how would an S-ON user go about doing this?

My fear is that I will flash this ROM, the Kernel will be updated and I will be stuck on the kernel that comes with Mean.

Is the stock kernel stored in the NAND? Would restoring a backup of my current ROM down the road also restore the stock kernel?

I am no stranger to rooting, flashing kernels and all that jazz, but I came from an S-OFF OGEVO so being S-ON is entirely new territory for me.

Thanks.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:
What is your hboot version?

The kernel in MeanROM 4.1+ is the stock kernel for the 2.13 OTA base. A promise in the rom that will install as part of the flash process. And as long as you stay on 2.13 based roms you should be okay. In the OP, there detailed instructions for installing the new radio if you are S-on.

Read the first three post of the thread carefully. If you still have questions, will be here.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dethkon1:
Hboot: 1.15

Baseband: 1.05.11.0606

Current Kernel:

3.0.8-01368-g6fdcee1

root@ABM036 #1

SMP PREEMPT

Do you think it would be best for me to relock, RUU to 2.13, unlock, re-root then flash mean? I've seen a lot of people unrooting with the RUU, taking the OTA to get radios then unlock and root again. Or would using the latest RUU essentially negate the need to wait for an OTA after unrooting for radio updates?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:
Ok. As long as you install 4.0 or 4.1, there is a program written into the zip that will install the new kernel. You only have to do your normal flash routine (wiping cache, dalvik, factory restore, and system). Be patient, it may take slightly longer than usual.

And be certain you are using the latest version of TWRP (2.2.2.0)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
If you are not that concerned about getting S-OFF then going back to stock and taking the OTA then unlocking rooting ,might be your best option :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dethkon1:
Thanks. I know I am on an older version of TWRP for sure.

I looked at CaptainThrowback's radio method and saw this:

My software version is: 1.22.651.3 71ORD

What would you suggest to update radios if this info is correct?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:
Let me investigate a minute.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dethkon1:
Well... I would LOVE to be S-OFF. Would make life a lot easier.

I am patient enough to wait for a new exploit to 1.15 but am having a lot of problems with the stock ROM I'm currently running. (Main issue is delayed push notifications. Sometimes they alert me as they should, other times I'll only get the message the second I screen on. Gmail, Gtalk and WhatsApp all do it.)

I have a NAND of Charmeleon that works fine other than Google wallet is broken (Device unsupported, works fine on stock still) and can always go back to that and wait for 1.15 S-OFF if necessary. I know people are saying the new radios are way better than my current radios, but I haven't had any issues with connectivity really so it can probably wait.

I learned that patience was a virtue with the OGEVO. :laugh:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
I have the same problem with the push notifications but fortunetly my LTE is not my primary device so not really a big deal for me but I see where your coming from :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dethkon1:
Interesting. I had assumed the push notifications were due to the outdated stock ROM I'm using. I've found very little info on people experiencing this same problem however.

I will restore my Charmeleon backup tomorrow and test it out for push notifications. I don't remember having an issue with it on Charmeleon, but I may be mistaken.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
It might be that I have auto sync turned off
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dethkon1:
Unfortunately, auto-sync is on.

I found this:

http://community.htc.com/na/htc-forums/android/f/222/p/15183/62799.aspx#62799

But nobody has offered any solutions.

Do you only experience this issue on WiFi? Seems like it is a problem with a lot of HTC phones, rooted or not. However I don't remember ever having this problem prior to root.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
I have problems with all my phones while using wifi but.... I also have an airave that could be part of it can't connect to some sites using wifi such as youtube but on 3g it's slow but does work
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dethkon1:
Well, maybe we're onto something now... Received and setup my own Airave the same day I rooted. I just checked however and YouTube (app) videos load fine for me over WiFi.

I didn't set it up the way they wanted however. They want Modem-Airave-Router. I went Modem-Router-Airave because I don't like the idea of my router being behind the Airave.

I did just check the "Best Wifi Performance" in WiFi settings and notifications are all instant, every time. Will test on a full charge tomorrow and see how bad that setting affects battery life.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
Mine is setup modem-airave-router i couldn't get it to work the other way

Ever since I got my airave my weather is for buena park cali but I live near san diego it will only change if I leave the house or turn wifi on but shortly after I turn wifi off it reverts back to buena park

Sweet thread! :thumbup:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Shadyrecords45:
Apparently when you make a new user name they don't allow you to post on the thread so sorry for posting here.

Anyways I updated to mean rom 4.2 and I noticed beats audio works but the option to change to "beatsrbeats", "beats studio" and the others don't work... And someone check up on this that is also running mean rom ver 4.2? If not then I need to do a clean install.

Thank you
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
I'm still on 4.1 and it doesn't work for me I'm gonna update when I get home from work I'll let you know :D

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
Just updated using OTA to 4.2 I checked and it says sound enhancement is not availible on phone speaker so I'm assuming you have to have headphones plugged in to make it work :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:
That's correct. AFAIK, it's always been like that.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
It was when I was on 4.1 but would not allow you to make any changes but now it's just greyed out
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:
If you plug in headphones, or connect an A2DP bluetooth, you can change the settings.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Shadyrecords45:
Yeah I'm talking after I plugged in my headphomes, selected a track and played it. Then I went to sound enhancer and selected beats audio but on the option on top left where you can select various options is not working for me... Did you check that or anyone on here check if it's the same problem for you guys?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] banccalif:
Yea that's a no go now
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:
No, I only checked in Settings>Sound
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cruise350:
The beats mod in 4.1 was messing up the notification sounds volume so Mikey removed those edits in 4.2. Don't know if he plans on re-adding it when he figures it out. Blame HTC, they are the ones that took away those choices.

LTE not working with MeanRom 4.0 / 4.2

Hi - I just started using MeanRom 4 and upgraded to 4.2. When I go to places I was getting an LTE signal before with the stock rom, I'm not getting anything. Has anyone had this issue before? I love the ROM but I get LTE a lot of places here in Atlanta and really don't want to have to give up on that.

Thanks.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] justbychance:
Thanks. My signal is better I'll test this tomorrow and see if I can't actually get an LTE signal.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kato669:
I was running meanrom since late July, however, stopped using it recently because I've been running into freezes and FCs while web browsing (mainly) and other slowdowns. May be a rouge app or memory leak of some kind. Not sure what's up, but I've nanded 4.2 and I'm running Tranquility until things work themselves out.

Anybody else experiencing issues with the recent builds? I'm monitoring the meanrom forum but I've only seen about 2 people mention this issue.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:
Have you updated all your firmware?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kato669:
yes, I updated all the firmware bits. Same versions you are on in your sig.

I've been using OTA update since the new base, I can try and do a clean install and see if that resolves things. Just wanted to take a break from meanrom and try something else
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awillis111:
Yeah, I'd try a clean install. And let the play store re-install all your apps. Then use TiBu or My Backup to restore just the data.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kato669:
Yeah, but I did a fresh install after moving to the 2.13.x baseband, including downloading all the apps from play. Figured I'd I was going to do all that again, wanted to try something new. However, strongly thinking about going back to meanrom since I'm not that excited about the theming in Tranquility. Thanks.

How to manually update your PRL in post 2 (USE AT YOUR OWN RISK IT COULD BRICK YOUR DEVICE)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] CheriePie:
So what's the difference between Performance and Battery? I understand from reading this thread that the default is Performance but I'm wondering what you lose if you switch it to Battery. Does it still use both cores, just less? What else is different? Is it slower than stock if you're in Battery mode?

My other question is, how do the auto-brightness and moonlight features work? Does it do the same as the system's built-in auto-brightness but just more efficient? I've usually had to crank my brightness up manually in bright sunlight (using the slider on the Quick Settings tab), but I notice it goes back down to where I usually keep it once I'm back inside. So maybe it's more like just an auto-dimmer??
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
I changed to battery once and seemed to get worse battery I'm guessing it's because it takes the phone longer to get going but on performance I get 30+ hours with almost 4 hours of screen on OC'ed at 1.8ghz

As for the second question I don't use it so I'm not really sure ask in the MR thread:D

Botched dirty update to 4.9, new ROM wont flash

I grabbed the OTA update to 4.9 last night, installed this morning as i always do. The device rebooted into recovery, not all the way into the system. so i manually rebooted and got back into recovery. Running TWRP v2.3.0.1, by the way. Tried to reboot into system and i looks like i have no OS installed anymore,

I tried to manually flash the 4.9, and got

this:

"Formatting and mounting partition...

e:error in /sdcard/meanrom-ics-v49-jewel-ltevo.zip

(status 1)

error flashing zip '/sdcard/meanrom-ics-v49-jewel-ltevo.zip'

I figured it might be a botched DL so i did it manually, MD5 check out after copying to the mounted device. Attempted to flash the clean DL and i got the same error message. Any thought as to why this is? Thanks for the help.

i tried flashing TWRP 2.2.2.0 via ADB fastboot. I got this error:

"FAILED (remote partition is not allowed to be flushed!)"

grr. also, the old stock rooted nandroid I restored got my phone up and working, but immediately after install is says i only have ~200MB free in the app storage section (out of 1.92GB). I can't fathom what's taking up all the other space, nothing seems to be there. Because of this i can't install Titanium, Rom Toolbox, or anything else that may be remotely useful.

Any other thought?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
Sorry for the late reply but you can try this see if it helps.

Open a cmd prompt from a writable directory (Type fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.2.2.0-jewel.img) Now flash recovery again, only this time you will flash to boot. (fastboot flash boot openrecovery-twrp-2.2.2.0-jewel.img) This is a workaround to get into TWRP. Now we reboot the phone and flash the rom. (Type fastboot reboot) Wipe the phone as you normally would. (Dalvik, Cache, Factory reset, System) Install a Rom that has a kernel installer and reboot. MeanROM has a kernel installer. Hope this helps btw this info came from the Don't Panic thread there is some great info there :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] joshuaak:
bigdaddy619, thank you so much. you rock for your time helping out

I looked all up and down the Dont Panic thread and tried a few things. i tried this again assuming i typed something wrong. Just to be clear, i rebooted into the bootloader, pulgged in the USB (now says 'fastboot usb'). I opened the cmd prompt and typed the two commands exactly

; "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.2.2.0-jewel.img" then 'fastboot flash boot openrecovery-twrp-2.2.2.0-jewel.img' I got the same "FAILED (remote partition is not allowed to be flushed!)"

Is this something that a superwipe script can fix do you thing? It seems to me that there's a partition that was sequestered without the rest of my device knowing. Or is there a fix partitions/permission script that you know of out there? Do you know of a way to see individual partition sizes? maybe i can find which one is full of junk and manually fastboot erase it? Also, any thoughts about trying to flash the new TWRP 2.3.1.0 assuming i can get something to flash?
