That sounds to me like a recovery issue. What version of TWRP are you running?

---------- Post added at 03:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:26 PM ----------

Thats strange i use screenshots just about daily and also update to every nightly with a dirty flash and they are working fine for me. Perhaps check permissions on both the Pictures and Screenshots folders located on internal storage...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ink718:
Download the recovery through GooManager and then try again. Could be a bad recovery install.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
I remember on one of these ROMs, screenshots weren't working or saving to SD because the folder they're supposed to go to didn't exist and wasn't being created. I think it was sdcard/Pictures/Screenshots .

Do you have that folder?

I forget which ROM/thread it was in, but it was being discussed and tested just a bit ago.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
That's the right path
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] numel007:
Alright I just made the folder. What permissions should I set?

Edit: it worked! Thanks, that was the only thing making me beat my head against the wall.

Tried and still doesn't work. The idea I can't make nand backups isn't very exciting.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wtfdic:
Try changing the storage location that you are saving too
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ink718:
Yea what he said. For some reason the new TWRP at times creates another backup folder with similar names. It happened to me while switching recoveries.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] audiovicious:
Switching back up location made no difference either, fails on the data partition when backing up to the internal or micro. I haven't switched, I mean, I did update, but its not like I came from some other recovery.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ink718:
Delete all the backup folders(TWRP), try to do a nand buckup see if that works.

Is the data/GPS fix supposed to work on the later releases? I've flashed that fix, cleared cache/dalvek, fixed permissions, etc.. and I can never get GPS on any rom past 9/1. The APN fix gets my LTE working, but no GPS.

Update: OK, got it working at last. Did this on the 10/20 nightly (without GAPPS)

1) Unchecked all three checkboxes(assisted GPS, GPS satellites and the google location service...) in Settings > GPS section

2) Turned off GPS

2) Rebooted(I'm not sure this is required)

3) Turned on GPS and also checked all three checkboxes

Not entirely sure what made it stop working in the first place.

Is GAPPS mandatory for GPS to work? GPS works after I flashed 10/20 nightly + GAPPS and then the GPS fix zip.

GPS doesnt work if I flashed 10/20 nightly and then GPS fix (and I tried flashing both together and also one after the other)

Finally got it working. Please see my updated post above. Anyway these below got me to say "GPS not working".

I did not get a lock in mapquest.

The weather widget in the lock screen showed no data(because it cant find the location I presumed)

Navigator offline maps application couldnt get a GPS lock to navigate.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sindawe:
Just pulled down 10/20 and dirty flashed.

FC/Blame Tylor errors when trying to click on clock square in the quick toggles (from pull down) and also FC from clicking on the time on home screen. Click through FC errors and eventually does take you to clock settings, but if I click on countdown/timer/alarms, I get more FCs, so rolled back to 10/18.

Try to fresh install later.

GPS does work though.

Turned off WiFi, LTE kicked in, and when I loaded up the GPS app, it locked position. 4sqaure also told me there were some pizza deals in my area too!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] andrew378:
Thanks for the heads up. The nightlies have been iffy for me (random reboots, especially after calls, and force closes and jank battery life), so I ended up going back to 9/1. Stable and dependable.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wtfdic:
Updated version summery:

Okay there seems to be a lot of information coming at you from all over the place so let me simplify.

For PAC Milestone Builds, These are Android 4.2.2 based and have everything working. Make sure to Flash 4.2.2 GAPPS and NOT 4.3 GAPPS

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 builds 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 PAC builds 10/15 and up, PAC has been updated to Android version 4.3.1 continue to use 4.3 GAPPS, GPS FIX and APN FIX. Haunted Kernel has now been updated to version 2.3.5. This is the only version compatible with 10/15 or newer nightly builds.

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.

I had the same problem
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] HiTekRawkus:
Helo all,

I've been running this ROM for a month or so and love it. Since 10/20, after fixing the APN and GPS, I noticed that I'm left with only about 50 mb of free ram, which leads to apps closing on me or the keyboard not coming up when typing messages. I already checked my running apps and stopped anything not essential but I always seem to hover around 40-50 mb.

Also, I noticed that a lot of my apps in the "running" tab are constantly listed as restarting.

Does anyone have any tips or ideas? Could it be a bad flash? Thanks for any hep!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wtfdic:
I do not seem to have that problem. I am running the latest nightly and generally have between 100-200 mb free. Been running this ROM since 4.3 first popped with no ram issues.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cw0802:
Same problem for me. Couldn't even setup my accounts. Keyboard force closes and never comes up.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wtfdic:
Sounds like you might have a different issue...What version of PAC did you flash and which GAPPS?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cw0802:
Thanks for the reply!

I'm running pac_jewel-milestone.1.RC1.zip and gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip

So that is your problem. You are running a 4.2.2 Rom with 4.3 GAPPS. Either use one of the nightly builds with those GAPPS or find the 4.2 GAPPS.

New 10/27 nightly posted.

Dirty flashed from 10/17 and still had FC's blame tylor on the clock. Also, Wallet FC and and a couple others did as well, but I can't remember which they were.

Clean flash and haven't noticed any problems. No FC's.

Clean Flash 10/27, gps fix, apn fix, gapps 8/13 (think that was the right date) - No FC on anything. This version does not have focal (not sure if/when it was dropped). Only problem that I had was turning off PIE - it was already active even though settings say it's not. So enabled, disabled, and it did go away. Other than that, can't see any other FC's or problems with mod.

Have not added Haunted to it yet, though.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
That will happen with some settings. I've had to change button functions to get them to work. You can install focal. I've brought it back from titanium.

Everything works great. I'm not sure if this is just me, but scrolling through lists isn't as smooth on the latest nightly. I know this isn't up to you, but I think the Active Display needs a way to blacklist certain notifications, like Apollo. Those just keep waking the screen.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamieg71:
Thanks man, yeah the scrolling may be due to cm rolling kernel version back. You might give it a run with the latest Haunted and see if that helps. I'll look into blacklists for active display. Seems we have this available on another project I'm involved in. If so I'll submit a cherry-pick to PAC.

I just downloaded latest nightly about to see what's up.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sindawe:
Haven't upped to a version 10/28 or later so I'm still using 10/27.

The only real problems that I have with it is that the keyboard likes to disappear and apps seem to just close.

For example, if I'm in facebook app, making an update, the keyboard pops up, I type a couple words, then it'll disappear. Same thing with Chrome; click in the URL/Search bar and get a couple words into a search, and keyboard disappears. Sometimes can never get it back. Other times, I get a FC. Like if I'm checking forums with tapatalk, click a reply, I get halfway through the reply, keyboard disappears, i click in the text box a few times or try to select a word in hopes of getting the keyboard to pop back up again, and then app closes and FC message.

Other apps, I can be using, then they just randomly drop me back to the home screen. I noticed that whenever it happens, my wifi icon goes grey, and the bluetooth icon goes away, comes back, goes away, comes back. If I'm in my car, with bluetooth connected and music's streaming, I pick up my phone and tap on gmail, the bluetooth icon flashes and music stops and it's as if the music (I use poweramp) app was closed.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] HiTekRawkus:
I had the same issues. In my case, after two full wipes and fresh installs the ROM only left me with 30-50 MB of RAM. I think that is the reason why the apps would close and the keyboard would dissappear (when I closed all running apps the keyboard would return).

I installed the Vanir ROM and have over 300 MB free RAM.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nolageek:
This.

It's riving me crazy. It feels like a memory issue to me because I slowly start having other issues as well. My back button also will stop working for apps. For example I'll click on a link in facebook or twitter, get taken to my browser and then hit the back button to leave and it doesn't do anything. I have to kill the browser to get back to my previous app or use the task switcher.

I also have more and more FCs the longer I run the ROM. These two and the intermittent GPS issues (the fix doesn't seem to work for long for me..) plus the keyboard issue is making me think about going back to 4.2.2. It's almost making any of these 4.3.x ROMs unusable for me. I have a feeling once 4.4 drops, devs are going to start working on that and leaving 4.3 in this state. :/
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sindawe:
Dirty flashed to 11/3 yesterday and don't seem to have any trouble with the keyboard closing or apps randomly stopping. However, like above, I do notice my memory getting lower. Previously, I was sitting at about 220 megs free after a clean install. Now, after a dirty flash I'm sitting at about 170. I wonder if that's the cause of problems I had before? The more dirty flash, the more memory gets eaten and wasted?

As also said, keyboard problem is gone, however that could've been due to dalvik/cache being wiped.

The one thing I did notice, was with the battery and charging. I dropped down to about 15% battery by 2am. Plugged evo into wall charger and went to sleep. When I woke up at about 10am, it was only sitting at about 65% complete charged. By noon it was fully charged. However, when I unplugged and checked facebook for only about 10 minutes, I was down to about 88% remaining; that seems a bit strange, that it would drop that much.

[MENTION=661288]nolageek[/MENTION] - boot into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik a couple of times, see if that helps. Did you change your keyboard feedback settings? I did. I have short press at 50ms and long press at 300. For hardware keys, I set them at 75%. You might also try making a backup, then wiping cache/dalvik/data/system and installing the newest date releas of pac. use the built in browser and see how the keyboard works for you then.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamieg71:
Newer is definitely not always better. As far as this ^^^, no worries there, there's at least one 4.3.1 ROM coming to this device that will be bug free, count on it.

This is pretty good advice, especially anytime you dirty flash, Cache/dalvik wipe is a must. Not necessary to do this more than once however. There is no benefit in wiping any partition multiple times. That procedure is left over from long ago when there was a brief period that clockworkmod did not wipe completely. All it does now is shorten the life of your device's memory, albeit very minutely.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] adamlee011:
I know at one time using a utility to clean cache in Windows, every time you deleted one layer there would be a deeper one underneath. That might be where the misconception comes from.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nolageek:
I didn't dirty flash when I went from 9/1 to 10/30, completely wiped and still having this keyboard issue - which I've had with all 4.3.x roms. Anything after 9/1 adds on the unreliable GPS (even with the fix) and this weird back button issue that's popped up with 10/30. After running it for a couple of hours I find myself "blaming tyler" every 2-3 three minutes :) as apps crash whenever I use the keyboard (mostly facebook, twitter, and messaging... but that's all I really use.) Seems to be fine for 2-3 hours then apps start stuttering and crashing.

Right now it started doing it and I finally enabled the ram bar in recents - there was 42MB free. I opened facebook, went to comment and keyboard and facebook crashed - checked ram bar and there's 23MB free, even after clearing recents. What happened to that 20MB? :)

I'll check out 11/3 and see if it behaves any better.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nolageek:
wiped and flashed 11/4 last night - so far I haven't had any FC of keyboard (yay!) but no GPS even after flashing the fix. I may try flashing a sense rom, getting a lock then restoring back to PACman and see if that helps.

Been on this ROM for a little while now, it works for the most part, but it has a few quirks. Think I'm on 10/10 nightly. Is there any newer nightly that worked well?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] andrew378:
The nightlies have been unreliable for me (FCs, random reboots), so I just went back to 9/1. No problems there.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sindawe:
Yeah, I'm on 11/5 and it's doing the same thing for me. I can plug into AC charger and evo will charge for at least 8 hours or so, and when I wake up and look at the charge level, it's only about 90%. When it does reach 100%, remove it and just a couple of minutes of use drops battery level something nuts.

Granted, though, these have all been dirty flashes.

I really need to do a clean install and see what happens, but I just don't have time right now.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] numel007:
I did a clean flash to 11/5 and had the issue. I think that the 11/1 nightly was relatively stable though.

The real only reason I've been updating is because on gerrit there's been talk of ability to disable the sidebar in recent apps with the camera and other icons on the left side. Been wanting that for a very long time. Not worth sacrificing stability though.
