Re: [ROM] Jan-26 MeanBean v2.83 | 3.15.651.16 | Mods | Batt saver

Is there anything that can be done to fix the multitasking? I was just about to buy some shoes online and I opened a new tab to see if any online promo codes were available and after finding one I switched tabs back to the stores webpage and all my info I typed in got deleted because the page did a full reload. Man that is frustrating is there any mods that can be flashed to fix this? I'm stock everything on 2.82. Thanks.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ewells38:
Yo Mikey, v2.82 is running like a

well oiled machine

:good::good:, quick question. where is the MeanBean bootanimation & downanimation stored on the device?

I ask because I wanted to change it, however it seems putting my bootanimation & downamination files in /system/customize/resource doesn't work :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rawintellect:
The short answer is yes. The long answer is that it involves modifying the services.jar file and OOM grouping via some scripts. My phone multitasks like a beast. And although I was told I'd go out of memory I don't. I used the recommended settings and my phone has never been more snappy. even while multi-tasking. I can listen to siriusXM and browse memory intensive sites at the same time. It's not for the feint of heart and it will break fapple. If you're fine with that PM me. I'll fill you in.

Please note in the screenshots I have sirius open and I'm browsing TMZ. Yeah TMZ. Laugh if you want but I defy you to try it even with both of these apps added to the whitelist. It will NOT work. Sirius will close. Try pandora if you don't have sirius. My point is certain webpages eat HUGE amounts of memory and the OOM settings in stock meanbean just do not work. also notice in the last screenshot I have 204.47mb free while both these tasks are open.

Again this is NOT MikeyXda approved. In fact it seems to tick him off. But it works for me. My phone is very snappy and does whatever I wish it to do. I urge you to try the whitelist. see if that works for you. if it doesn't? PM me. I'll walk you though it.

Worst case? You don't like it and dirty flash to go back to meanbean stock.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cquinn:
go to system/customize/resources. the boot up is named - SPC_bootanimation.zip the down is - SPC_downanimation..zip

Rename SPC_bootanimation.zip - SPC_bootanimation.old - then remane the animation you want to use SPC_bootanimation.zip. Paste it in the folder and reboot. Repeat for downanimation.

For those having low speaker volume I found going to settings/sound/sound enhancer and changing it to HTC 5.1 or HTC enhance nearly doubles the speaker volume for me.

All you have to do is follow the instructions in post 3 for the whitelist. Add a whitelist with the word "browser". That's all you have to do. Your browser will never be killed. Just follow the instructions to flash the whitelist template and then change line 8 from this:

<empty>

To this:

browser

And you're done.

Re: [ROM] Jan-26 MeanBean v2.83 | 3.15.651.16 | Mods | Batt saver

This ROM is damn fine work but I'm having a single issue which I know is specific to this ROM (and my phone). Very frequently I'm finding that my Wifi will go "dead". I still have a connection and good signal strength but the connection may as well not exist.

The work around I've been using is to turn off wifi and then immediately turn it back on and it will work again then I'm in the exact same spot again.... The reason why I know it's the ROM is because I'm using the same network config for several months now and it works fine on ALL other wireless devices throughout the house (iOS, Android, Windows, Linux you name it).

anyone have any idea of what is causing this? I'm s-on and I updated the firmware (baseband) to the latest version manually.

Other question I have is that I see that there's an Aroma installer for this ROM but when I flash I don't see such an installation process wizard appear..

Thanks guys!

Phone unresponsive

Phone went black and no keys are responsive. Volume Down/Power is unresponsive. Power/charging light will not go on.

I just upgraded to MeanBean 2.83 from MeanRom. All looked good and was tweaking it to my likes, and restoring my apps. Two things I just recently did. Increased the overclock. Installed Swiftkey flow. Then selected Chrome, changed keyboard to Swiftkey, started typing, and then the phone went black.

Any suggestions? Sure wish I could pull the battery.

Well you shouldn't be afraid to overclock. I OC and video games have never been smoother. it's all about finding a balance between speed and voltage for stability. I pull about 7k to 7.2k scores in quadrant all the time. No reboots. The phone is pretty stable! :cyclops:

Re: [ROM] Jan-26 MeanBean v2.83 | 3.15.651.16 | Mods | Batt saver

I didn't notice a difference with 2.83 until I ran Antutu and Quadrant. Both showed a significant drop minus 800-1000 and minus 600-700 respectively over several runs. Antutu also started force closing after several runs. (all at 1.8 overclock).

I went back to 2.82. All's well.

I just had the same issue. Some people suggest holding the power button until it just starts working, but I just took it to Best Buy and they had my phone replaced in one day. I rooted it and got back to meanbean quick because the stock room sucks. Lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Blazin Chaos:
This behavior seemed to show up with me ever since Jellybean came out. Tried AOSP ROMs and the phone stays nice and cool. This is a smooth ROM, but the quick, constant heating up of the phone is of a concern.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MordredKLB:
A few days ago people were wondering/thinking that this ROM wasn't working well with LTE. I can state that that isn't the case. In every place where I got LTE before I get LTE afterwards and the speeds are exactly what you'd expect from LTE. Doesn't seem hard to connect and I don't notice the connection dropping when it shouldn't.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Majin101:
Re: [ROM] Jan-26 MeanBean v2.83 | 3.15.651.16 | Mods | Batt saver

I noticed LTE dropping only because LTE is still in process in certain areas around me. In my house I randomly see 4g and at work (40 minutes away) I saw it for the first time but went away again. I live in Virginia.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Ingenium13:
Yup, I have the same issue. For me it's when my phone switches from my 5Ghz network to my 2.4Ghz network. It only does this when it's in a spot where the 5ghz is weak but 2.4ghz is still strong. However it's as though it has no signal at all. It will stay like this (even if I'm right next to the router) until it switches back to the 5ghz network in a few minutes or until I toggle the wifi (which causes it to go back to 5ghz).

I've read that it's somewhat of a known issue with Jelly Bean on this phone and to set the phone to use 2.4Ghz only or 5Ghz only (maybe the handoff is what causes the problem?). However if my phone is actively using a 2.4ghz wifi connection it often causes bluetooth devices to disconnect. Large 2.4ghz wifi downloads/uploads cause bluetooth devices to repeatedly disconnect for the duration of the data transfer, and also seems to cause much faster battery drain on connected bluetooth devices (an active, fully charged device connected overnight is dead in the morning, versus being at 83% when the phone is on 5Ghz wifi). So I just deal with knowing the wifi cuts out in certain spots so that bluetooth reliably works.

Re: [ROM] Jan-26 MeanBean v2.83 | 3.15.651.16 | Mods | Batt saver

Same happened to my first black one. Though I was trying to s-off via Lazy Panda. Sprint store swapped internal battery, then got me a replacement when it still wouldn't do anything. I think Dirty Racun is a much easier and safer way to s-off anyway. I've done it to both of my current Evo LTEs, and was using a 64bit Win7 system, though it's unsupported...

---------- Post added at 10:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:14 AM ----------

Me too!! Though it's obviously not rom related as a rom doesn't touch your radio, like Mikey has also stated. Others have claimed that Sprint's LTE is NOT stable no matter where you are, though I've had constant LTE signal at my house since about 1-2 months since this phone was launched. My speeds have actually increased lately! I've been getting over 20mbps download on my bed, where before it was around 15mbps download.

I'm currently on Disability after a bad auto accident, as I can't work for 1.5 years. That said, I've spent a week straight at my house without leaving, and my phone stays on LTE constantly!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] m6284505:
I haven't installed any themes, just apps from Amazon and Google Play. So far in the last 1.5 hours it has locked and rebooted two times while listening to FM Radio and then opening Facebook and scrolling around, both times. I recall this happening last week as well but I never paid attention but now it's getting annoying.

I'll keep doing the same thing and see if it continues to happen.

On a side note, I set the Battery/Performance option in Aroma to Performance and my bluetooth stopped skipping when listening in the car. Seems to have fixed that issue.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
Have you tried holding the power button to get a true battery disconnect? Some hangs require removing power from internal circuits to reset. So you might try that. Also, try letting the phone die completely to the point where it turns off on its own. Then don't charge it for about an hour. Maybe one of those will spark it back to life. If not, you're probably Sprint Store bound.

I've been having trouble with processes I add to the whitelist being killed. I replace the first <empty> slot with the full process name, change the permissions to rw-r--r-- and then delete the bak file. Am I doing something wrong?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mikeyxda:
You don't need to change permissions. Flash the template and then leave permissions alone, however, rw-r--r-- is correct. Also, edit the file on the phone with Root Explorer or ES File Explorer. Never edit it on a computer because you will probably end up with an ANSI file (wrong format) and that will stop it from working: even though the file may look correct, it will have a carriage return at the end of the line and that will foul it up.

If you've done those things and it doesn't work, then you've flashed something like a theme or a mod that has overwritten the services.jar file and that will break it every time.

OK. If it does, try to get a logcat as quickly as possible (a couple minutes is usually best). Then if you like, search the logcat for the word "died" and look through all of them. If you don't see "<your.process.name> has died", then the task manager is not what killed it.
