Anyone else having LTE issues? I'm having it with this AND paranoids release. Basically , LTE doesn't work. In any location where there is LTE, the phone shows no data/lte signal and I have no internet connection. If i turn off LTE, it switches over to 3G without any issues.

I'm really stumped cause a month ago on pacman i had LTE with no issues.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
That's funny because I have tons of problems when I restore from tb on 4.3. I have to install most from play and then restore data only. Lol. Glad it seems to be working for you.

---------- Post added at 04:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:41 PM ----------

There were data issues that are known after the 9.1.13 build mentioned a few pages back and a workaround posted. Did you see that? Or are you saying in spite of that? Also, I posted a link (also a few pages back) to the 9.1.13 build which many are finding to be stable. You're welcome to try that until the bus are worked out.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] andrew378:
^What Adam said. Also, have you tried the APN fix for CM based nightlies? There's a thread for that along with the GPS fix over in General. Flash after the ROM and you should be good to go.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BiNiaRiS:
Right after I posted I started digging a little more and found the fixes. It'd be nice if they were posted on the 1st page.

Now the only issue I have is how to get rid of the soft key nav bar at the bottom. I don't see anything in the options about it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamieg71:
I'd probably post them on the first page but so few people read it. Not to mention that most times this builds nightly. It would have to be one enormous OP to cover all the changes and bugs for each nightly. Not to mention trying to keep up with all the changes bugs and such with CM who's device tree we are based from.

Best bet is to always read a thread thoroughly before flashing. In the very least the last dozen or so pages. I mean its your device, it's probably a good idea to know what your about to flash on it. :rolleyes:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
Adam, best advice ever.

Jamie, super thanks for sharing with us.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BiNiaRiS:
But it seems to be a fairly common problem though and a huge one at that.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
You're running a nightly which means basically that it isn't an officially stable build. These things change literally everyday. The op is updated as a new version or an official version is out. Jaime said it best. If you're familiar with aosp then you know this. If you're not willing to read and see where development is at, don't flash aosp, or at the very least, not something that says "nightly." Welcome to the thread. This is one sweet effin ROM.

---------- Post added at 06:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:09 AM ----------

Lol. That was kind of a shot in the dark. Is it working for people? Wipe and flash isn't much advice. It's kind of a given.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamieg71:
I tried flashing then wiping but I get no boot?!!? WTH!?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 12gage:
I bit the bullet and did a clean install then didn't enable anything in the notifications, or ribbons, or halo and it has helped. I still start getting some launcher redraws after about a day of running, but rebooting daily to reduce lag is fairly common as far as I know. System UI has swelled up to about 105mb, but when I checked on it later it reduced back down to around 80mb. Things seem to be running much better now, thanks for the advise
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
Sometimes I forget to wipe entirely. Damn that chafes.

I get some launcher redraw. I set the launcher to keep in memory and it helped some but not always. I turned that off as a compromise because it was looking other processes I keep persistent notifications for.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamieg71:
I flashed the latest last night and found some memory leaks. Checked in with pac devs and there's a bunch of fixes on pac side coming in the next day or so. If I get a chance I'll do a build with proper props for data and GPS(the Captain throwback)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
There are actually new props from the 3.17 ROM that we've been testing for deck. I can't tell how much of a difference they make yet, though. If you want to try them out, I have a flashable for them here. I was using a version of that zip to try and fix data on the Sense 5 port.

I actually replaced all of the vendor props with the updated versions, so if you're going to use them, it's probably best to be on the latest firmware as well.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ricardod1:
I'm in a bit of a pickle and just wanted to ask you if anyone is having loss of mic when on a call? Been on 9/1 love it but now all these problems with making calls. Any help would be greatly appreciated
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 12gage:
I've had people complain they couldn't hear me when using my headset w/mic, I didn't have that on Viper. But otherwise when on Bluetooth or using the phone mic I've had no issues, I too am on 9.1
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ricardod1:
Not using blue tooth or any head set just the mic on the phone
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
Not normal. When in doubt...................
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] WyldeStile:
What background is that?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 12gage:
Do you have to enable using headset buttons for media? My headphone buttons don't work when they did on other roms, bluetooth buttons work but the hardwire headset buttons don't. I also just started having my phone stop recognizing when it's plugged into the computer for file transferring, USB debug is enabled, and I've tried all 3 mode (MTP, mass storage, etc). It will work in recovery, but booting to recovery every time you want to transfer is a pain. I'm am using Haunted, not sure if that has something to do with it, it didn't right after flashing.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jpflaw00:
I was trying to purposely reboot my phone after charging it. I noticed that if you plug into the wall charger first, it will no longer reboot the phone if connected through USB afterwards :victory:. *Note* This will only work if Android has already booted. Otherwise it'll boot loop even if plugged into a wall charger.

Clear data for media storage in settings, apps, all apps. Reboot. Wait a bit.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
So where are we at now? Have gps and data issues been cleaned up in the latest? I'm still with 9.1. I haven't had much time to play around but my flashing finger is starting to itch.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] andrew378:
Not sure about the GPS and data issues as I just flash the fixes right after the ROM and gapps, but the recent nighlies have some new goodies like active notifications which is pretty darn cool. However, I've been getting some random reboots (granted, I dirty flash, so that's probably my fault).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
What do you mean by active notifications?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] a senile fungus:
When I was on vanir I turned on active notifications but I didn't really see any use for it.

What're people using it for? Maybe once I see how other people use it I'll see the error in my ways...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] andrew378:
I believe it's called Active Display, my apologies. See here: http://www.androidcentral.com/moto-x-best-feature-active-display

I use face unlock and the pattern unlock, so it's convenient when I'm on the go and I can see any texts or emails that I get at a glance without having to actually unlock my phone. Yes, there are other ways to do this, but I like that it's built in and seamless/elegant.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thewind730:
Basically it's a way to see your notifications without having to actually turn your screen on it only lights up the ring and text of the notification so it should help on battery. In theory
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
Oh that's awesome but I use proximity screen off pro so it's sort of moot for me. I wouldn't use that as a substitute because sometimes i actually need the phone on and ready to rock when I pull it out. I don't use a lock screen even. It's just in hand and on or faced down or in a pocket and off. Very cool as a native feature though.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] numel007:
I really want to use an app like that, but I heard it hurts battery life...

Sent from a Carbonated EVO
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
I can't say enough about the app. Doesn't hurt my battery. If it does it's not even a little bit noticeable.

---------- Post added at 05:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:03 AM ----------

I think it was the only app I ever took the to to write a review for on on play store. It gives you complete control to tailor it's behavior to your proximity on off needs. Lots of options. Black list apps. It's great. I remember the lite version seemed like a different app so don't judge by that. It's easily worth more than it costs.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] audiovicious:
About a month ago, I tried this ROM and it kept crashing whenever I would try to unlock it. htc.phone stopped, something something. I tried two different downloads.

Being tired of the one I had, I decided to try it again. I downloaded it again, it works, but after I flash GAPPs, I get constant keyboard FC's, to the point I can't even use it. I found a few threads of people with that issue from that GAPPs, but trying to flash any other one creates more problems. Any solutions?

Also, should my Home key, short press, by default have no action?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wtfdic:
Try the debloated gapps there is a thread for them around somewhere.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] audiovicious:
If I flash PAC without GAPPs, I prefer the way the ROM is. I get a nice lock screen, and my home button works, but none of the GAPPs I need. Seems like I lose a little functionality when I flash GAPPs, and then the keyboard doesn't even work. I've also tried downloading the package several times now.

EDIT: Sorry if my descriptions are short, at work. What I mean though is, the ROM boots up, fully functional without GAPPs (but those are crucial) and works amazingly. When I install GAPPs, which I have to have, I lose the keyboard, the lockscreen, and hardware button functionality. I wish I could keep the original ROM, with GAPP functionality.

---------- Post added at 06:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:33 PM ----------

Tried this just now, did not work. I can't get past Unfortunately, Android keyboard (AOSP) has stopped. The debloated DID leave my lockscreen and homekey functionality, but still, no keyboard. As soon as I can clear this damn hurdle I'll love this ROM.

I have redownloaded the ROM and GAPPs package, 3-4 times, and I've flashed, wiped, reflashed, dirty flashed, and done every other combination of the two, and nothing will make the keyboard work. It's driving me crazy at this point.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wtfdic:
What version of PAC are you flashing?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
That's weird. I use Swype and I freeze android kb in tb to get Swype to stay default after reboot but even before doing that I've never had the kb crash.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] audiovicious:
The release candidate. I flashed gapps-jb-20130301-signed per a suggestion I saw somewhere, and all is well. The ROM is running nicely though. Few questions, any way to make the status bar transparent? Is there a way to set is so that a PIN isn't required immediately, but only after awhile? IE, I use the phone, if I use it again within 5 minutes, it doesn't require PIN again, but if I lock it and wait past 5 minutes, it requires the PIN again. That way I'm not entering it every time. I saw what looked like an option for it, but it didn't seem to work.

Also, what kernel are people running with this? Any recommendations? I'll play with the stock one for awhile, but options are always nice. How's the GPS on this? On my last ROM, within the past month it went to absolute ****, giving terrible directions and often updating after I had passed a turn by a few blocks. Having just moved to a big, new city, this got me lost more than I could tolerate any more, and in a less than savory neighborhood at night a few times.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ink718:
Try XBlast tools/GravityBox modules, which can be installed through XPosed: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1574401. You should be able to set the transparency of the status bar. For the lock option, im confused but theres a interval for minutes if you go into security lock screen. As for the GPS, I havn't been on PacMan for about a month, so not sure. However there is a issue with data and GPS but Captain_ThrowBack has issued a fix. Make sure it's compatible with your ROM, heres the link for the Data/GPS fix: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2459713
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] audiovicious:
Thanks for the GPS fix, it looks to be compatible, will have to check to be sure though. Also, yes, for the lock, there's an option, but if I set it to 5 minutes, it requires the PIN every time still.

I also seem to get a little delay from when I push the power button to when the screen comes on, if there's a fix for that. It's not huge, but it's noticeable.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wtfdic:
Of your running the RC you should not need the GPS fix. The GPS fix is for builds after 9/1. As far as the screen on delay that was a known issue with the RC and is fixed in the Nightlies.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
Hey Jamie, is there any more Pac on your horizon or are you primarily concerned with carbon now?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] audiovicious:
New to this ROM. Can I just flash a nightly over the RC? Is there a specific one that's recommended?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
Im hoping its primarily SKA on the horuzon. Havent tried it yet cuz I'm not VIP on TN site, but looks wicked, and i love ska music, lol.

I believe 9/1 release is most stable, at least, that's what I gather from the comments I've seen.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
Why do I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about? Lol

---------- Post added at 11:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 PM ----------

I'm also confused as to why pac seems to be the only lotk with pa. That's like the number one reason I use these roms. Just took a shot at carbon and the speed was dizzying. I was giddy for a moment till I realized no pa. Then I just restored pac before even setting anything up.

---------- Post added at 11:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:33 PM ----------

Just surprised those settings aren't more popular.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] audiovicious:
The Nightlys links in the OP doesn't seem to go that far back, guess I'll have to look around for it. Loving the ROM having been on Sense FOREVER now, just wanna get rid of that screen delay.

---------- Post added at 11:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:44 PM ----------

Were you the one with the gapps problems? Try booting once before flashing gapps. That's how I installed and I have no prob. Also I'm using debloated 2.0 on the 9.1 build so I'm not sure if it's just the charmed combo.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] audiovicious:
I am, and I did that a few times and still had issues. I flashed the data fix linked earlier, and only just noticed, I have no data. Sheesh, to get this thing working.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
Install the build I just linked. Data and gps work without any fix. Flash 2.0 debloated. 12gage has 2.4 working on it I think so you can use that if you want. Should be fine with that setup.

---------- Post added at 12:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:11 AM ----------

And do a full wipe first
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] audiovicious:
It starts up, I get a phone FC, then acore.something FC a bunch, then it stops. I used that EXACT setup. This ROM just does not like my phone. My data is back, but the screen delay is still there.

Just noticed you said full wipe. Can I get away with just doing system or do I need to do data too? Be the umpteenth time I've restored data today. And before it's mentioned, these issues I'm having occur on the phone before my apps are even restored. I wipe and flash and it boots with these.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
I still get the screen on lag but it's not all l the time and it's tolerable. I think I got a fc or two on first boot. Fix perms and wipe caches in recovery.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] audiovicious:
First thing I tried. As mentioned, the first time I tried this ROM it would start up and then everything would FC and nothing was usable. THat was the RC, and I tried several downloads of it. Now, these issues. The only GAPPs that have worked for me are the ones I mentioned way back. I've never encountered so many problems just getting a flashed ROM to work. I love the ROM, but it just does not play well with something on my phone, no fault of it. Trying again now though.

EDIT: I also stand corrected where I said the acore FC stopped eventually. It just keeps happening.

EDIT EDIT: I'm now on 9.1 with debloated 2.4 I have data but for whatever reason, it seems a little weak, and my WiFi seems to have less range. May just be me, I dunno. So far though, everything works right now. I lost the News and Weather widget I like, but that seems to be about it, I can replace that with something else to avoid more trouble. Thanks for your help.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nyflyguy:
I installed this on a EVO 4G LTE phone that will never be used for calls, only WiFi. When it boots up I hit "start" then it asks me to activate. I hit skip and it says "just a sec" for a min or 2. Then it goes back to the activate screen and it's never ending. It continues to do that for some reason. Can I only use this ROM if the phone is activated? Please help :confused:

Edit: Tried the release version instead of the nightly and it works fine now.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wtfdic:
Use the latest just make sure to flash the GPS fix and APN fix posted by Captain
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 12gage:
I actually had device incompatible issues until I flashed 2.4, after using 2.4 I had no issues at all
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] audiovicious:
I'll nand what I have now and try the newest, finally got everything working though, so no real rush to jump ahead, unless there's something drastically new.

Also, see Haunted seems to be a hit with this ROM, there a specific version there? Thought I saw 29 or 31 somewhere in here.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 12gage:
I was using 29 with pacman 9.1, I think anything over that (nightly's) you use 31
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wtfdic:
Okay there seems to be a lot of information coming at you from all over the place so let me simplify.

For PAC builds 9/1 and earlier (as long as it is 4.3 and not 4.2.2) data and GPS work fine no need to flash any fixes. If you want to change kernels use Haunted v29

For PAC buids 9/2 and newer GPS does not work you will have to use the GPS fix. Also at some point between 9/2 and now (10/15) DATA broke (not exactly sure of the date so you will have to flash the APN fix as well. For a kernel on these use Haunted v31

FOr GAPPS you can either use the full GAPPS available on Goo or use the debloated GAPPS.

If you are using the debloated use version 2.4 as older versions were known to have "device incompatibility" issues.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
Nice summary
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] audiovicious:
Absolutely. Thanks! One last question, anything drastically new you could mention since 9.1 on the nightlys? Anything I'm missing out on other than just minor tweaks I might not notice?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wtfdic:
Generally it is a smoother running ROM with some nice new animations. There has been a lot added to HALO so that might be worth checking out. Also the new Gestures Anywhere and Active Display features are nice.

---------- Post added at 01:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:07 PM ----------

Just did some testing with the 10/15 nightly...It appears to not like the Haunted Kernel to much. A lot of graphical glitches.No issues without Haunted installed.

It appears to still need the GPS and APN fixes.

---------- Post added at 01:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 PM ----------

Just confirmed 10/15 nightly upgrades Android to 4.3.1
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nyflyguy:
Which recovery is recommended to flash this? I keep getting weird issues with Team Win 2.6.0.0. I'm only assuming it's the recovery because I did a full wipe multiple times and also downloaded the ROM a few times just to make sure I wasn't flashing a bad file. On the latest try I keep getting a force close with the keyboard so I have no way of typing, and the home button doesn't seem to want to work either.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wtfdic:
I am using the latest TWRP with no issues. I cant speak to the keyboard as I use Swiftkey but I have no Home Button issues. Give us a bit more infomration... WHat version of PAC are you flashing? What else are you flashing with it?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nyflyguy:
I tried the nightly first but that wouldn't let me get past the activation even when I tried to skip it. So then I figured I would try the release version, but now I have no keyboard so no way to sign in so I can search for another one in the play store to replace it. Along with the ROM I also flashed the GAPPS that's linked in the OP.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
I'm glad I'm not the only one with button issues. It's only on 4.3 aosp roms and seems to start for me after using a new rom for a few hours. Home is the only button that does work when it happens. Menu, back and volume do nothing. I associated it with ss launcher but that's not necessarily it. In the launcher, the menu can be launched with a pinch gesture. That works and once I do that all hardware buttons work again.....until the next time. It's not constant and now I have an easy fix so I don't concern myself much about it any more. I'm trying to think of what might trigger it. Could it be a dpi change ie going from an app set to 280 to one set to 240 or certain things in a halo window? It's happening on carbon now and wasn't at first. I installed carbon last night. This morning I installed xposed and the app settings module that allows per app dpi changes like hybrid properties.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wtfdic:
The Milestone Release was Android 4.2.2 not 4.3 so it sounds like you may have flashed the wrong GAPPS.

---------- Post added at 05:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:40 PM ----------

I used to have issues where my back button would stop working from time to time forcing me to use the home button to go all the way back to the dashboard.

I have not had any issues with that since i believe the 9/30 build.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
idk. I've had the problem right along including the latest haunted carbon.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nyflyguy:
I tried the debloated GAPPS for 4.3 and I'm still having the same exact issues :/

I'm beginning to think it is the older recovery I'm using. The reason I didn't update it is because I've heard of issues of the phone not responding to touch input after updating the recovery. Anyone know if this is an issue or should I just go ahead and update it so I can finally get this ROM to work?

---------- Post added at 05:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:29 PM ----------

Also, I don't know if HBOOT version matters for this ROM but I'm on 1.15.2222 with s-off. Could that possibly be related to the issues I'm running into?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ink718:
Update your recovery, its good. Once you update your recovery, make sure you do a backup with the new recovery so that everything stays intact when and if u decide to restore. Good luck
