I can't really tell from looking at that on my mobile device. I usually get mine from the Evervolv Updater in the ROM. But if they're for KitKat and they say core, they should work.
[EVO 4G Original Development] vinman12:
This will work

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=12890
[EVO 4G Original Development] harminoff:
Thanks for the help! I forgot evervolv had the built in updater in settings. For some reason I thought it was an app so that's why I had trouble finding it.

I notice that this does have support for ART. Do you recommend using that or delvik? Can I even use art if I want to use something like a2sd?

Also, I did do a fresh install and then used the latest gapps but sometimes get an error "Unfortunately, the process android.process.media has stopped."

I did a full wipe before install so am not sure why I would get that message.

Again, thanks for all the help and hard work! Glad I can still use this phone.
[EVO 4G Original Development] Captain_Throwback:
There isn't enough storage on this device to use ART.
[EVO 4G Original Development] harminoff:
Yeah I lack reading skills and should have seen that already being discussed lol.
[EVO 4G Original Development] harminoff:
So I've been running this for a bit and it's working fine. Would like to set up my sd card now.

I'm trying to use this guide. http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2125513

Can I use the apk from 4ext.net like in method 1, or should I use a different method?

The reason I ask is that 4ext can't find my device and don't know what I should use instead if using that method.

Thanks again!
[EVO 4G Original Development] Captain_Throwback:
Just use TWRP.
[EVO 4G Original Development] harminoff:
Will try. Any special settings I should know about for ext size and swap size? ext3 or 4? Will be using a 4gb sd card.

Looks like we are all set up! Thanks for a 4.4.4 build for an old phone. seems to do the trick!! Only issue I ran into is had to grab banks gapps (54 MB) because the smallest PA gapps (96MB) is still to big. ha. Going to make sure this thing is charged up and see how long i can get this battery to last.
[EVO 4G Original Development] KingFatty:
OK I'm going to give this Evervolv ROM a try, on my HTC EVO 4G (original).

Are there any more recent versions than the 2014-06-20 nightly located in this folder: http://evervolv.codefi.re/builds/nightly/2014.06.20/
[EVO 4G Original Development] Captain_Throwback:
Newest one I see is here: http://evervolv.codefi.re/builds/nightly/2014.11.22/

That should be KitKat, so you'll need some core KitKat GApps for it.
[EVO 4G Original Development] mirage1234:
The cm10 message app did not seem to do anything...I did notice that I lost a few of the setting options though, so maybe a step back not forward...not sure this is upgrade. The mazwoz kernal seems okay but I am still experiencing the wake issue.

I thought I would update to the latest nightly (thought it would be like JMZ CM10 where you could clear caches, install, and go). It was not...I had to reinstall most everything to get phone back to where it was...just an fyi, it is not as easy to update evervolv nightlies as JMZ CM. So be sure to block off some time to do this if you want to update.
[EVO 4G Original Development] aheeejd:
@mhwarfield, I'm pretty sure with smelkus mod amon ra style 4.3, you can restore cwm backups & amon ra. Also you can try apex launcher. I think apex & nova are neck & neck.

As far as the space issue, not really sure, if you run a2sd, in recovery you can go under partition sd card, & there's a repair sd partition, try that. May help, I know I've run evervolv roms from the ICS days & could & can install nova, apex, Holo (that's a real good one too), adw (new one) etc.
[EVO 4G Original Development] partyman1971:
You must be doing something wrong, i install nightlies and all i do is clear cache and dalvik and my phone does not lose anything and works just fine. I am starting to think you did not wipe your phone before installing this ROM. You seem to be the only one that has numerous amounts of problems. Not to mention i have not heard anyone saying that after they installed a nightly that they lost the stuff on their phone. I would not suggest you tell people watch out or be prepared for something that your phone is the only one that seems to be having this particular issue. I am usually a pretty laid back guy and just try to help people when i can if i know how to help them, but your post got to me because you did something wrong and are trying to blame the ROM. Please make sure you follow the steps when installing a ROM and i am sure you will see much better results.
[EVO 4G Original Development] sharkboy0901:
I have not had any problems with this ROM it is rock solid people who are having problems need to FULLY WIPE before installing.

SUPER JOB DEVS.

So people who use that quick reply MMS have ya had reboots when pressing the quick reply button?

This happens in both evervolv and cm10, I now know why, it needs to be used with GPU, either by forcing GPU rendering or disabling hardware overlays in developer options.
[EVO 4G Original Development] partyman1971:
I use ChompSMS and i have no problems with messaging. Each person has their own options on messaging apps. Thanks for the response shark, maybe that will help him solve his problems.
[EVO 4G Original Development] mhwarfield:
Well, it said it could and it found the backup I wanted to restore and everything seem to go ok but the end result was only a small fraction of my apps, and no Nova Launcher or any of my other apps. I had to reflash the gapps after the restore and then restore RomManager and then restore CWM and then re-restore the same backup before I even came close to recovery and still had to run Titanium backup restore on all missing apps. Yeah for multiple backups! In changing from one ROM family to another I first do a TI backup then do a ROM backup then do a flash. Flashing RA added a couple of steps where I flashed it and then did a Nandroid backup and then started installing the apps. Still turned into an exercise in frustration.

I'm trying to help out here and provide feedback. I have ADW and I have Trebuchet and I've tried Go and about 3 others. Nova has, to me, about the best overall combination of features - FOR ME. All that aside, Nova is something that works on JMZ CM10 and fails for me on Evervolv. That's not a complaint. That's a diagnostic that something is wrong here. I don't know what and I haven't tried to do a logcat or dmesg while it's occuring. I will take suggestion for any other diagnostics to run. I'm not afraid of the command line (in fact I prefer it). I will proceede with that analysis once I'm back stable and positive I have a stable recoverable backup.
[EVO 4G Original Development] partyman1971:
There is one thing i will let you know. After you install a nightly you have to install Gapps again and the kernel of your choice along with other things you flashed. But as far as just installing a nightly there should be no problems. I think your best bet is to use Smelkus RA and then wipe your phone again and re install the Rom along with your Gapps. From all the problems you seem to have i would think you have nothing to lose doing that. I assume you have your SD card partitioned also? I also use Nova and i have no problems with it at all.
[EVO 4G Original Development] sharkboy0901:
@mhwarfield

I think the problem is restoring the apps, where is your backup from meaning what rom did you backup your apps from?
[EVO 4G Original Development] mirage1234:
I completely wiped the phone before installing the first time. It has been done twice now to be sure. I have followed the instructions to the letter.

I have been doing this for over 2 years. I don't know why it did not work, but thought others might experience the same thing....

I was not trying to upset anyone. But your response does upset me because you assume I did everything wrong and it is my fault.

You do not ever need to respond to me again.
[EVO 4G Original Development] ryan.dawkins:
Hello, I'm pretty new to flashing ROM's. I've done it several times, but am I missing something? The market doesn't install to this ROM. Am I installing it wrong?

What I did was, use superwipe, then flashed from zip. I flashed the latest 'release zip'. Evervolv-acies-3.1.0a1-supersonic.zip.

Thanks,

- Ryan

Edit: When looking at the website everolv.com I was looking at the downloads and saw 'gapps' I'm assuming this is where it is and will state if this is the correct solution for anyone else that might be experiencing the same issue as me.

After flashing the google apps zip, it force closes at the install setup.. Anyone know anything else?
[EVO 4G Original Development] Kenpoman:
I love it when people just flash anything.

That said, this rom is jb 4.1.2 you need to use the correct gapps.

For those having issues with this rom:

Make sure your sd card is partitioned.

Make sure you have at least 50% battery

Install recovery of your choice (I use smelkus's version of amon ra)

Wipe everything 3 times (I have seen it not work after 2)

Install rom

Install kernel (optional)

Install correct gapps

Wipe dalvik and cache

Boot

Sign in to Google

Get all your apps installed

(this next step really helps)

Boot into recovery

Wipe cache and dalvik

Fix permissions

Boot and let it settle for 10 min before you touch it

Enjoy a truly awesome rom
[EVO 4G Original Development] ryan.dawkins:
Thank you very much! I'm sorry for not knowing, I didn't see anything saying to even do all that when I was going back on the posts.
[EVO 4G Original Development] smelkus:
There are guides for partitioning stickied in the General forum.

Gapps are in the main releases link in the OP. Just scroll down to Gapps and use the latest.
[EVO 4G Original Development] ryan.dawkins:
I got it installed and it works amazingly :) even installed clockwork touch!

Edit: thanks to this ROM I think I can be held off from buying the SIII and waiting for the CMDA Nexus 4.
[EVO 4G Original Development] KevinGee:
I think most people here on the evo forum would recommend smelkus recovery over clockwork touch

[EVO 4G Original Development] jr71x:
Cause it does better job of wiping...
[EVO 4G Original Development] rob_z11:
I tried to install this rom on my wife's phone and it installed OK. Once I installed a2sd, phone rebooted OK, but lost the touchscreen. No matter what I do or install, I can't get touchscreen to work. I tried cm10 or restore from the backup and nothing seem to work.

I do have an older recovery on her phone ans trying to get smelkus on her phone to see if that helps.
[EVO 4G Original Development] Kenpoman:
you do not need to install any a2sd it is already built in out of the box. that is probably your problem
[EVO 4G Original Development] rob_z11:
I was installing from command prompt like a2sd install. Since then I have wiped and wiped and installed cm10 and restore from backup but without no touchscreen.
[EVO 4G Original Development] kokomojo:
Gaaps

on a side note Gapps 4.2 works on this rom
[EVO 4G Original Development] teej51685:
Oh so that means enhanced Gmail, correct? I don't think I've ever installed a new Gapps over top of an existing install. Can I just flash the 4.2 Gapps or should I do a wipe, etc? I know it's always safest to do a wipe, but if I can install the new Gapps without it it'd be greatly preferable. I will, of course, do a full wipe if I end up having any issues.
[EVO 4G Original Development] kokomojo:
I'm pretty new to the root world so I always do a full wipe...you also get the new clock interface which looks pretty cool

This rom is not as functional as cm10 from jmz? Multiple volume choices, power menu to turn on and off GPS and data and other stuff. Well good thing is that this rom is being developed.
[EVO 4G Original Development] Coldfirex:
I find it very functional. Most of those differences come down to AOSP versus Cyanogenmod.
[EVO 4G Original Development] oodork123:
Are you there any mods for this?
[EVO 4G Original Development] rob_z11:
Well it works, but Gapps is missing Navigation apk. I am not sure if there is a way to sideload it.
[EVO 4G Original Development] Kenpoman:
If gapps is missing navigation try to update maps from the play store. Also check if the gps is working. Nav shortcut won't show up if gps doesn't work. Try to flash the persistent gps fix then it should be there
[EVO 4G Original Development] rob_z11:
Thanks for the help but map is the latest with no update. I am going to dig around little more..
[EVO 4G Original Development] oodork123:
Its amazing that its just as smooth as the ICS roms but the animations are a bit sluggy but fast. One random reboot for just swiping screens repeatedly. Applications open fast as well. Just amazed that the community as helped made this stable for us EVO users. Thanks Prelude_Drew and everyone else here.
[EVO 4G Original Development] AFschizoid:
Hence, make SURE there ARENT 2 zip extensions like I said....
[EVO 4G Original Development] blz_phnx:
yea thats wat i meant :D
[EVO 4G Original Development] oodork123:
So apex launcher has ICS animations and it works better than the system.

Latest attempt... Installed the latest nightly. Once again with CWM. This time it worked to the point where I got Nova Launcher installed. One step I had missed before was letting it "settle" for a time (basically, it's scanning the sdcard and finding all its pieces). Nova Launcher running, ran "a2sd install" from adb and rebooted the phone. Installed a couple of apps and then even some mickey mouse apps start hurling chunks with "Insufficient Storage Available." WTH...

Running adb, I'm finding no problem here:

It has nothing to do with Nova (wasn't even installing before). Anyone have a clue what's going on?

Since this one actually did install Nova, I'm going to make a backup of it, just because it puts a stake in the sand and at least CWM will allow me to drop back to a previous version without costing me a day of effort.

One, maybe, important note. I AM using a 64GB SDXD card partitioned 32G vfat / 32G ext4. I know some people have experienced some problems with the high speed (class 6 and above) but I haven't had any problems with my class 10 SDHD nor have I had any problems with this 64GB SDXD on CM10 using a2sd. Apps running on the vfat side seem to be fine (I had moved several to adcard using appadmin - another factor).

A few apps are still installing from market. Getting as many as I can in place before burning the backup.

Is anyone else using the Waze app [which interacts with GPS]? It shuts down as soon as I start it up.

Strange... Several of the apps I've paid for will install the free versions but the "pro key" hurles a hissy fit about "not enough storage? That makes no sense. It's just a key app. There's a problem here. Either with resources or API, I don't know, but there's a problem here. I've now installed, slowly, over 3/4 of my 180+ apps. Most of them, I don;t need on the phone but it's a test of what the ROM is supporting. They all load and run fine under the JMZ CM10 Rom. So, what's the problem?

The really, really, REALLY serious one is that I have NOT been able to install Google Authenticator. I'm currently totaly dependent on my talblet for my access control for services I've set up with that. That makes me nervious.

[EVO 4G Original Development] maherov:
i initially was disappointed with this ROM because i had the same exact problem you were having with Waze.

But i decided to give it a fair shot, so i redownloaded the release, the gapps, and the latest nightly, emptied user cache and dalvik cache, flashed the release, flashed the nightly, then flashed gapps and booted. Then make sure to remove the "waze" folder from your SD card.

I then downloaded Waze and worked like a charm. This ROM has been awesome.

hope this helps
[EVO 4G Original Development] meldryn:
Thanks for the tip on getting Waze up and running. I just uninstalled/wiped cache/dalvik/waze sd card folder and reinstalled and looks like it is working. I did notice a crash folder in waze that probably would've told me more info on why it was crashing ... which i now know for next time ;).

This ROM has been pretty solid so far - keep up the good work!

Quick Question - when/how is it decided to create a new "release" from the nightlies?
[EVO 4G Original Development] oodork123:
When it's more stable than the last release.

Get rid of CWM. Get SmelkusMod or in the least AmonRA. CWM has known issues with bad wipes and has soft bricked devices, (supersonic specifically). Glad you've not had problems with that 64G card, but I think your in a minority, most generally, anything over 32 will have some issues.

[EVO 4G Original Development] mhwarfield:
If you read back, you'll find that I tried Smelkus and it was an unmitigated disaster. I had the exact same problems with Smelkus as I have had with CWM, so I found no advantage either way compared to manual CWM recovery, and switching back and forth proved a nightmare of epic proportions when it screwed up restoring from a CWM backup. I'll try it again sometime in the future but this is NOT related.

[EVO 4G Original Development] Kenpoman:
i believe it is a problem with the recovery. a bad wipe and flash will give you all kinds if problems.

my advice is to take all of your apps and back them up. (titanium backup)

install smelkus recovery.

wipe everything fully.

flash the new rom ..DO NOT TRY TO RESTORE A BACKUP!!!.

flash gapps

reboot

sign in to google

restore apps (titanium backup)

reboot into recovery

wipe dalvik and cache.

fix permissions

reboot and let sit for about 10 min to settle

enjoy

No the FFC does not work, and i doubt that it ever will work. This phone was only set to get GB and that is all, so all the work these devs have done to get us JB on our old phone and have so many things working is astonishing. I love showing my friends that have newer phones with ICS on them that i am running JB and they are not, it actually pisses them off...LOL. I don't need a FFC anyways, if i did i can always go back to GB, which i can promise you that will never happen, i am liking JB way to much to take a couple steps back.
