You can do it either way. I have been useing the app. It's a bit easier. :)

turkbot, I used the music app for an hour strait today and didn't have an issue like the one you described. instead my sd card started acting up. I was useing a bad cord to transfer data earlier this week and I guess that messed it up. Any way, are you useing the updated version I posted on 11.6 or are you still on an older version?

thanks chad!

I've been trying to get WiMAX into this but I can't figure out how to get it to show up in settings or on the home screen. I've made sure every file and folder from newSENS that says WiMAX is where it needs to be but it still doesn't work. Does anyone have any suggestions?

It has Drob's kernel.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] prboy1969:
Yes I know this. But Sprint never had a Sense 3.5 Device. So no Sense 3.5 with 4G WiMax. Drob was actually working on getting 4G working before his Shift went south. But it's not the easiest thing to get working.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Chad The Pathfinder:
Oh ok. I guess it's not going to happen then. :(
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Aaargh!:
Here in beautiful San Diego we don't even have 4g service. The closest place with 4g service is Los Angeles, so I have accepted the sad situation that I have no need for 4g. Sure would be nice to use the phone for all it can do, but Sprint sucks on this matter. The rom is great by the way. Is there a way to stop the text messages telling me I have a voicemail? I know I can use a sms blocker, but I like to minimize add-on apps as much as possible. Thanks:cool:

I posted an update in the OP. I updated all of the apps, deleted some widgets and updated to the latest Superuser. I have tried and tried to get SuperSU to work on this from flash but I always have to flash the zip from here http://download.chainfire.eu/298/SuperSU/CWM-SuperSU-v0.99.zip to get it working. If anyone wants to help me figure out how to get it baked in that would be great. I've been using it for most of today and is running pretty well. Let me know what you all think.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bilgerryan:
You have to go into the SuperSU app after boot so it can update its binary
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Chad The Pathfinder:
What I've been doing is unzip the file I linked to before. Deleted the Superuser apk. Deleted su from system/bin. Copied SuperSU into system/app and copied su to system/xbin. To the best of my understanding this is what is supposed to be done but when I flash and try to access SuperSU it says that there is no binary and it can't install it. If anyone really wants SuperSU, dl the zip from the link I posted, in CWM wipe dalvic cache and cache then install the zip. That's how I got it working several times today.

I'm not to sure, its been literally since I posted this apk since I've messed with one. Usually with HTC and the way fusion.apk shows things the images go in there with a .dat extension or some ****.

I'm not 100% but I think the skin.apk needs done the same way. This was the only apk I did for Sense 3.5 :eek:

I Fixed the phantom vm text issue and changed the pull down notification menu to white so its easier to see.

Download: http://d-h.st/qCZ

HOWEVER, 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.

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] twizt3d:
Yep that worked, thankyou. I installed your recent update to this rom btw, and it seems a few things that were here previously are now not. The %battery mod is missing, as is both tweaks or the dread control panel. Any shot we can get at least the batterymod back? Also i kinda liked the black themed dropdown better, even with the few text mismatches. Even though this is opinionated could you perhaps put an apk or zip up to switch back and forth? Also this apk fixes the htc clock widget and htc weather.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Chad The Pathfinder:

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Chad The Pathfinder:
Its odd that you didnt have it in there already. I fresh flashed this afternoon after church before work and there are 4 skins total. Blue Sky, Music Lover, HTC, and the Sense4 Gabbana Original Ring. How is it working for you now? Are you sure you got a good dl?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] twizt3d:
Yea, i only mess with sense now and then. Im more of a fan of the htc apps than sense itself. I used to like asop and go launcher but they put too many ads in that rom toolbox cant remove now.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] Chad The Pathfinder:
Ok. Well when I fresh flashed this earlier everything worked as expected. All skins and tweeks were there and functional. The battery icon was green and now theres a patch for that.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] adobrakic:
I'm having issues of the phone rebooting by itself and consequently draining ~90% of the battery when it does so. I've tried flashing a bunch of different ROMS to see if I can stop it from happening, but to no avail. I'd like to go completely from scratch and hopefully I can get to a point where the phone works for an entire day without crashing. I've been using the HD2 instead of the SGS4G for a couple months now, so I'm a bit rusty, which is why I came here to ask for suggestions. This is what I was planning on doing:

- Flash one of these stock ROMs in order to get back to where I started.

- Format my SD card completely and let the phone convert it back to EXT4

- And then flash either Barebone or Valhalla

Do you guys think this would be sufficient enough to remove the problem that's causing these reboot & battery drains?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] sublimespot:
I would flash eollies kj6 with the blastoff v2 if your not planning on going to ics after because that's the latest gb kernel available and then flash Valhalla or barebones (then you might have to flash blastoff again can't remember right now but it should say in the op of each rom). And I'm pretty sure when you one click back to gb that will convert back ext4 so I would format SD card and reload it before you one click back. Good luck friend
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] adobrakic:
Thanks for your input! Do you think the gremlin remover is necessary, or is it overkill in the context of what I'm doing?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
If you want quick and easy use my one click the other two listed is just kernels.

As for getting battery life on ICS flavored roms, well take the time using BBS and STT to figure out whats killing your battery. As long as Im not jumping between wifi and mobile data I can go around 15 hours on a battery. And I havent spent tons of time to figure out why Im not getting more battery life. But others like jeffsf has. And with that I can honestly say if your not getting battery life comparable to GB roms its YOUR fault not the rom. Most ICS roms have stuff built in that you have to use a app for. Therefore a GB rom with nothing installed will get better battery life. But once you put your stuff on and start running the battery life is not being compared properly. The reason for this is most people will keep a app just because they are use to it and not even know the ICS rom has it built in.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
I personally think most of our batteries - if still using the one that came with the phone - are starting to run their course. New batteries are inexpensive on Amazon.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] adobrakic:
I think you guys are misunderstanding my issue. My problem isn't the battery draining quickly over a certain amount of time due to regular use. My problem is that once my phone crashes and reboots, the battery will literally go from whatever percentage I was at, all the way down to below 10%. I can be at 90% battery, and if my phone crashes, it will be on low battery once it powers back up. I'm not sure what's causing the crashes, which is why I'm just trying to start at step 1 and work my way from there.

To test if it was the battery simply draining out very quickly, I turned brightness to 100% and turned WiFi & GPS on, and disallowed the screen from turning off. The battery drained normally.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] th3controller:
That happens to me... It gets fixed by shutting down and taking out the battery for 30 seconds.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] TwitchyEye:
Sounds like a bad battery
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] m4127440:
i had the same issue and also would get diff battery levels when booting with or without charger plugged in...i used a toool from market to calibrate battery. i cant remember exact app but will post back if i find it.

edit:

it was "Battery Calibration"

by NéMa

and i had to do it a couple of times to get it to set in.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
Like thecontroller stated its a bug and you should be able to correct it by pulling the battery out and waiting a few extra seconds. If it does it still hold the power button down for a little while with the battery out.

Do this next time you have a crash on ics. Time how long it takes for the phone to restart. It is seems abnormally long you could have some scripts that are running on boot that is causing issues.

Calibrating the battery can be done manually. All you have to do is delete the batterystat.bin file. That is all those apps do. And really If you fully charge your battery it should be deleting itself.

In a nutshell, yes. You are only putting extra stress on your battery by "tricking" it according to various calibration guides. Batterystats.bin file is generated for a reason. Batterystats.bin is in /data partition, so after you install a new ROM that wipes your previous data, it gets wiped too. So, "Wipe battery stats after installing a new ROM", which is a cliche among those guides, is pointless. Last but not least, batterystats file is simply a logging tool that monitors your battery behavior. The "stats" part is pretty self-explanatory. The actual Power Manager lies in kernel, not in /data partition which accessible to anyone.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] eollie:
SBD all that info is true. But if you use the aroma installer it will backup and restore the data partition. Not sure if it will restore the batterystat.bin file or not. That is why I posted what I did. I do not believe in calibrating batteries as much as making sure they file is not storing data that is out of date.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Shortbus-Driver:
As you guys mentioned earlier ...hard resets are the best ....I find our batteries do go bad. And when they do....they do all kinds of odd things to the device
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] gregcapps:
Battery calibrations are garbage. They do nothing. The file that any battery calibration app deletes is deleted by Android anytime you do a full charge anyway.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] adobrakic:
Okay, so I formatted my SD card, and flashed Eollie's KJ6 using Heimdall. After that, I flashed Raver's Valhalla Black.

Initially, I didn't install anything extra other than updating gmail and superuser. Everything worked fine, apart from one random reboot. Once it booted back up, everything was normal. Today, I installed around 5 apps. I was using one of those apps (Reddit Is Fun), and while using it, the phone crashed. Once my phone booted back up this time, everything force closed, and log provider force closed over and over. I had someone text me, and right after they did my phone just crashed. I tried fixing permissions, but that didn't do anything.

Any suggestions?

--edit--

I just factory reset and tried reflashing Valhalla Black, but everything just force closes again even on a fresh install.

I just went through the same issue. This was going on rarely for several weeks then got more frequent.

Before posting here tonight I put my old battery back in and guess what? Symptoms came back within 30 minutes....so....
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] th3controller:
Then there's your answer, you need a new battery my friend :D
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] adobrakic:
Just so weird, I don't see how a battery can affect the OS in that way haha. I've ordered a new battery anyway, they're only like $5 on Amazon, but I'm gonna try your steps anyway, controller. Thanks a lot guys.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
It seems I didn't misunderstand your issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] adobrakic:
Which is why I said "I think," since I didn't see a connection between a battery failing and the OS force closing all my applications.

Anyway, I think you guys who mentioned the battery are right. I've flashed the stock ROM and tried using that as a benchmark to see what could possibly be causing the force closes and crashes, and it was occurring even on that. So it can't be a problem with flashing a ROM or the ROM itself. Once I plugged the phone into the charger, the crashes stopped. My new battery is on the way, so hopefully that'll alleviate all these issues I'm having.

I'll update this thread when I get my battery and do a couple of tests. Thanks, everyone!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Mykalus:
I had the exact same problem a few months ago... Phone would crash and when I rebooted the battery would be at 4% or something... I tried everything - gremlin remover, multiple roms, etc... In the end, only a new battery fixed the issue... I thought it was crazy too, but it was the battery...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] adobrakic:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] adobrakic:

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] brandonc0526:
Even though its solved I think I'm gonna chime in. The battery could just have not been providing enough input to the motherboard or some partition and it was causing the phone to crash when trying to read those apps from the memory. Kind of like when you make a circuit with simple wire and led's, and provide have a weak battery, the light might turn on a little but it will flicker or be very dim. Same situation
