Here's another issue: I reflashed the rom this morning. Before doing so, I did what I thought was a full wipe (cache, dalvik, system, factory reset) before flashing the rom. But now that the phone is on, I'm connected to my PC and can see all the files from before are still on the internal storage (pictures, app folders, etc). Shouldn't they have all been removed? Isn't a factory reset akin to a reformat of the hard drive?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] travisw0204:
Yes and no. The internal storage only gets wiped completely if you do a factory reset inside the phone. It doesn't erase that using factory reset in TWRP or CWM. However, with TWRP 2.5.0, you have an option to wipe the internal sd storage.

The PRL is correct as I have the same thing. My PRI is 2.97_003. When you flashed the firmware, did you do the complete update or just the radio? It doesn't matter at this point as the phone worked prior to that tools file being flashed. I would think if you could restore a backup Rom of 3.16 that it should wipe that out and restore your old settings.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jaymunone:
I made a nandroid somewhere. Will have to find it when I get home and hope it fixes the issue. Will also do a full wipe 3 times and an internal storage wipe.

I just shut it down to try and enter recovery. No dice. So now I have to wait. I do notice though it is VERY hot on the back below the camera port. This thing always heats up but considering it's been doing nothing but idling and charging the past 45 minutes, seems unusually warm.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] travisw0204:
Yeah your phone is not liking something at all. I can go online for a couple hours and my phone gets slightly warm but never hot.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jocarog:
Jay you need to update your pri and radio, go to captains thread and download the 3.16 PJ75IMG and install it thru fast boot, your radio might be the issue as per Mikey in the OP it is recommended if you are having trouble with old firmware to flash the latest, here are the screen shot of my info....

mikeyxda still working on this rom?

I know mikeyxda has been developing on the VZW Note 2, but is he still carrying the evo4glte?

Thanks.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
As he put it, it's on the backburner. Not really anything to update at the moment since there hasn't been any new updates from HTC/Sprint. When and if something new is released (like Sense 5/Android 4.1.2) he'll likely update MeanBean.

I see you are in Birmingham. Small world:cool:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Randy D:
Hi folks, been buried for a while in work. My beloved mean bean screen took a dump on me. I have an upgrade. My warranty is gone. Any opinions on just replacing this or change?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jaymunone:
So, an update on my situation. First, it must've been the overheating issue that caused my phone not to reboot, sometimes for hours at a time. I figured it out by, of all things, placing my phone in the REFRIGERATOR for 5 minutes. It would power right up after. However, I couldn't sustain this for the next year until my contract is up, and it didn't fix the radio issue, so....

..I flashed a stock rom, took my phone to the store with it up and running. He started working on the phone, couldn't reboot and gave me a new EVO...for free. No $150 TEP deductible. Whew. I kind of played the system, but Sprint has made enough money off me the past 12 years.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] travisw0204:
Nice. Congrats and hopefully this one will work as intended.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] canhazpixels:
Hello everyone,

Just wondering if that issue from a few months ago - where the phone would just end up in a battery-killing wakelock - had ever been fixed. I'm considering going back to MeanBean.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
The $150 is for a replacement due to physical damage (like a broken screen or water damage), and it's done through Asurion, not Sprint. Normally it's $35 if Sprint replaces a device due to defect. Either way, good deal:cool:

Bug report with physical camera button

First of all - AWESOME work on this ROM is simply rocks .. Hands down the best one I've tried and I've tried many..

Secondly - how do I file a bug report?

I'm pretty sure I've found an issue which came up in one of the later releases (I'm on 3.09 currently) where if you use the physical camera button to load the stock app and use the same button to take pictures, after a few pictures that button will stop working to take snaps as will the soft button.

It's extremely easy to reproduce and it stops working until you exit the camera app and restart it.

Anyone have any suggestions of an app to use that's close to as good as the stock camera app until this is fixed? I'm missing precious moments all the time fumble with this when I'm trying to capture something.

Thanks guys!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] njspank:
Hey I just tried using the physical camera button to launch the camera and proceeded to use it again to take photos. I took at least 30 photos with intermittent burst shots as well and couldn't duplicate the issue you're having. I also used the onscreen camera button as well. In fact, the camera was uber responsive and this camera and Rom are a "work-horse"!

How long has it been doing that? Does it occur each time u take photos? Try rebooting and see if that helps. If not, maybe a fresh install will take care of that issue. Are u running the barebone camera.apk with no mods?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] amenic:
Yea looks like I spoke too soon.. only seems to happen when I'm actually taking photos but I am now having the same problem reproducing. It either happens right away (after the first 2-3 pics) or not at all.

I was having this problem after upgrading (from an older version of meanrom up to 3.09) and figured it was systemic after I did a complete wipe (to go s-off) and clean reinstall.

Definitely something going on here and it's a newer problem I was hoping it would be a cut and dry fix but doesn't appear to be the case so I'll see if I have better luck with a third party app.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AndrasLOHF:
I've used Version 7 on it before. Yes it did make music much much better. Even better than the stock music box type features that MeanBean had for a while. I've also used Version 5 on Operation Jellybean and just flashed version 8(after running version 7) on Viper ROM. I pretty much won't run a ROM long without flashing Acid on top of it. If you want to use an add on for it I like the Noozxoide the best. Also on the universal version 8 there are two downloads. The lite one is just Acid and some tweaks and the full download throws Xperia launcher in there too.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] spursdude:
Yep, that was fixed within days (if not even faster). I think there had been one system file that had been updated in JB that Mikey needed to use.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Bsober:
What version of it should I download. I cant seem to find version 8 and there are quite a few versions of 7
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AndrasLOHF:

I installed AC!D Audio V8.0: (Android 4.1 and newer) AOSP/CM10/CM10.1/AOKP/P.A.C optimised. I didn't bother with the Walkman Engine because no matter how many times I've flashed the older versions that had that as part of the install it was never accessible. It would show installed on my system but the Walkman app would never show up to use.

Were can we download the latest RUU and instructions on how to set the phone back to stock? Going to be selling my lte for the One and would like to set it back to stock. Thanks!

Ive run acid audio before. Cant get it to go at this time. Fails at install every time. Might try again after next clean install

I just install this Rom and lash thinklizard kernel but I'm having a problem everytime I oc the cpu it always go back to stock speed any idea why this is happening I try 2 kernels and does the same think its like it the settings won't stick
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AndrasLOHF:
Really ....that's weird. May be a bad download. This version is so much easier to install. Just wipe caches and flash the zip. No permissions to fix or su commands in terminal emulator. Even on the Noozxiode add on it uses the play store version of the apk instead of a custom one.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] insanedeath44:
Any idea ?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] vopwriter:
There is a sticky settings zip that this Rom loads on the sd card in the meanbean folder. It has an aroma installer that can set some overclock settings. Try Rom install, flash sticky settings with oc preference, boot, then install thick lizard kernel. Oc should stick through kernel flash.

Hope that fixes it for ya. Good luck fella.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Bsober:
Yeah it sure looked much easier. Did you flash the full or the lite version? I've got a little time today and may do a clean install of the rom just to play around anyways.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jocarog:
Viper Ruu will do it for you, it's in the android development thread...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AndrasLOHF:
I had flashed the full version. Is is giving you a failed message or sticking at the permissions line. The setting permission function takes a while to finish.

HEADS UP!!!! Make sure you make a nand before flashing version 8. I just realized that it took away speakerphone functions. Also Voicemail was causing reboots and there was no audio on phone calls. I really should have checked all that out before letting you guys know about version 8. I'm on Viper so it may be a little different on MeanBean but I'd make one just in case.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Bsober:
Yeah, glad I did make the backup. I have same issues, and I really didn't notice much difference in sound volume. Didn't have any type of equalizer or anything.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AndrasLOHF:
Yeah you'll really notice the difference using an equalizer with it more than anything.

Flashed back to this rom and WiFi tether doesn't seem to want to work or put out a signal, had it on ics/jb 1, also tried Hotspot and it doesn't work as well. Normally tether works great so not sure what the issue is, all settings are same as I usually run

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
He moved on to the Verizon Note 2. His daughter still has an EVO LTE. He has stated that this ROM is on the backburner while he devs for the Note 2. Until HTC/Sprint releases a new update, don't expect anything new.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Konvict808:
I would leave HTC all together. Various problems either the new HTC One(capacitive buttons, hard to get s-off on various phones..etc) I would get the galaxy S4, I've been with HTC since the hero on Sprint, then EVO4G, EVO3D, & currently EVOLTE. I thought I could bare not having a removable battery, but I'm a power user & now with no SD card in the ONE. I'm done..Samsung here I come! Plus Mikey said it's a lot easier to unlock boot loader & root a Sammy device!

Noob question. Just installed Mean Bean 3.09 and all is great! I can't seem to find the Mean Bean folder either on the internal or external SD. Do I need to re-flash or is it in a "hidden" directory somewhere else....?? Thoughts?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Bsober:
It'll show when you boot into recovery. Choose install from internal sd. You'll either see mean bean folder or other options to install, such as sticky settings
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] stanglifemike:
I feel the same way! I've been a loyal HTC user for many years now, even back in the WinMo days!! I started with the Touch, Touch Pro, Touch Pro 2, Evo 4G, Evo 3D, and now the Evo 4G LTE. I like the design and look of the One, LOVE the dual front facing speakers, just don't like not having an sd card slot, and the non-removable is really more of a pain than I thought it would be! I had bigger mah batteries for my Evo 4G and my Evo 3D, some bigger in physical size, and some the same size as stock and just more mah. I've never been liked Samsung devices, but that may be my next phone. In a perfect world, Sprint would offer the Asus Padfone 2!! I LOVE my Asus tablets, and really like their phones (from the photos, videos, and spec sheets I've seen). I could just buy the Padfone 2, then activate it on a new AT&T account, and without being in a contract. That said though, Sprint really is the best carrier in my area by a long shot, with AT&T coming in a very distant 3rd! Guess the S4 on Sprint is really my best choice, sadly..........

I really want a display size of at least 5" too. The One being the same as the Evo LTE was a disappointment, and the Note 2 is really too big for me (which really surprised me, as I thought I'd love it!). The Note 1 display size is really perfect, so my next phone has to have at least a 5" display!!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BPHusker:
I echo this. I switched to Sprint from US Cellular to get the Touch Pro. Since then I've had the TP2, EVO, EVOLTE. Other than the sleek look of the phone itself, I thought the HTC One was pretty underwhelming. I think I'm going to switch to a Samsung when my upgrade is up early next year unless the HTC One 2 or whatever it is, brings back the design/configuration similar to the EVO LTE.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kaeXo:
I agree. I bought the HTC One when it came out and returned it a few days later. I'm going to wait for the $250 price tag to drop in a few months because they often to a short promotion to try and restart sales.

Have you tried clearing data on media storage under all apps? Also, when you mount to pc are you using mtp or mount ing as usb storage? I personally only connect to pc while in twrp recovery and use mount feature to switch between sd cards.

Hey, it's been a while since I've posted. I'm having issues with my rom. Two, but one is new. The new one started about a week ago. When I reboot my phone, all my widgets will be gone and most or all of my app associations are reset. Happens with either stock launcher and Apex. I've been using Apex because the launcher keeps closing and redrawing. The redraw is faster with Apex so I switched. That's the old problem. It's been like that for 6 mo.

Anyway, I'd anyone knows what to do to make the widgets and app associations stick, that would be great! Thanks!

What other ROMs are you guys trying and like? While we are waiting for the next update from Mikey, I thought I would try some other ROMs. None of them seem to be nearly as popular as MeanBean.

I just started using Chrome as my main browser on my phone and I've found that for whatever reason, apps will end up closing when using it. Earlier today I had Pandora running in the background and I loaded up Chrome and started using it. Within 30 seconds, the Pandora app closed itself. Is there something set where Chrome can kill apps? Can this be changed?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
Try lowering minfree settings. Chrome is kind of a memory hog.so it's stock browser but I have better luck with that. Fortunately it's usually just home screen redraw for me.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
If you notice, Chrome tends to have more reloads than the other browsers. It's a bit more demanding that the stock browser, for example. Try using V6 Supercharger, or download McTweaker to change the OM values. That *might* help, but not by much on Sense roms.

Also (unrelated question); Anyone having trouble with Google Maps Navigation on MeanBean 3.09 ...?

I tried to run it today on a short trip out of town, and it kept sh!tting the bed (force closing) like _right_ away! It would run smooth at first for what seemed like a solid 8-10 min (estimated, I wasn't counting 8-10min is just a guess) - every time I tried to run it again -after- the first crash, it just Force Closed right away... (very frustrating) - I use it from time to time, and I prefer it to evety other "3rd party" Navigation app I've tried (and I've just about tried them all)

Oh well, I really like this rom - everything else is tailored to my liking, just the damn Navigation sucks.

Is there another rom that's similar to this that I can try? Any suggestions? This is the first rom I flashed, I'm ready to try another. - zmag

The navigation issue is on every sense JB rom, as far as I know in some phones works but the majority of us have this issue, I use telenav and it works fine and I think lots of people was recommending Waze, somebody correct me if I'm wrong, I think navigation works on cm 10.1 aosp, not sure though...

Latest mean bean. Maybe u uninstalled something that I shouldn't have
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
Same on aosp. It is a firmware thing. If you did the stock ota you have a chance of nav not working. From what I've read it crashes when it's reached a certain memory limit like it's not given proper priority or memory handling. That's what I inferred from the discussions I've read anyway. Luckily i'm on old firmware. Waze is great in theory but I can't trust it to give the right directions. Go with telenav. My nav works and I'm thinking of switching to telenav.
