[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Chad The Pathfinder:
​

Hey everyone. This is a port of NRGZ28's Energy ROM for the EVO. You can read the original post here.

This is my first successful Sense port. I used MikRunny as the base for the original port of this. Later builds I used newRUNNY and I've tried to make this as close to the original ROM as possible.

ROM Features

Android 2.3.5 (Gingerbread)

Based on the latest HTC Sense 3.5 leaked ROM (Runnymede)

Dodgekernal v1.6 in original release

Drob's newRUNNY kernel in newest release

CRT Animation + blue overscroll

Enabled GPU UI rendering

Blue highlights instead of green (where possible)

Deodexed, zipaligned, tweaked

Improved SD card read ahead

Busybox + runparts

A few HTC Apps removed, like HTC Navigation and some widgets

A lot of junk removed

Screenshot by pressing Power and Home

Advanced Power Menu

Updated hosts file for ad removal

Sense 3.0 camera

CRT Animations

RCMix Tweaks in the older version

Dread7us' control panel in the newest version

Apps2Sd

Semi transparent Rosie and Notification pulldowns

Extended Quick Settings.

This has Drob311's kernel. The default clock settings are 1.5 max, 245 min, Performance. I recomend dropping the clock to 1.2 max and interactive as the govener.

BUGS

No 4G!

1 Wallpaper grid preview is broken

I've had a few bugs when using a2sd. (Fixed "Sense" 1-5-13)

I've had some lag issues with this.

3-27-2013 (Fixed!) Somehow when fixing the phantom vm text alert issue I broke the weather app. All of the widgets and apps that use it still work but when you try to access the weather app itself, it FCs. I'll look into what the problem is when I get more time.

Here is something that I have found useful with lag on GB.

[APK] Seeder 1.4.0 entropy generator to provide significant lag reduction

Special thanks goes to NRGZ28 for this awesome ROM!

Thanks to rishabh.raj37. I used his guide on How To Port Different ROMs to do this.

Thanks to newtoroot for MikRunny. (A great ROM!)

Thanks to one_love_420, Dread 7us, and drob311 for newRUNNY. (Another great ROM!)

Update: 3-27-2013

Fixed the phantom vm text issue and changed the pull down notification menu to white so its easier to see. I put the old Energy Tweeks back in favor of Dread's control pannel. If anyone wants it back I can make a flashable patch no problem.

Update: 1-13-2013

Started from scratch using newRUNNY as the base.

Included Dread7us's control panel

Updated to the newest superuser and binary

Updated all apps

Deleted some widgets and some apps to shrink the ROM down a little

Update: 11-5-2012.

I've used newRUNNY to help stabilize some issues. Updated and modified some apps

and

added Strapped365's 4.0 skin/clock mod (Called Music Lover). Thanks Strapped!! This version has Drob's newSENSE kernel. I tried to switch from Superuser to SuperSU but I just couldn't get it stable enough. The only issue I've had while testing has been some of the sense widgets don't want to get onto the home screen the first try but they do stick eventually. When flashing, the ROM will boot and get to the lock screen. When you unlock it you will see the home screen and then it will go back to the splash screen. This is just the ROM messing with you. :) It is not a boot loop! Just wait and it will come back and load normally. I really like it and hope you all will too.
