It's the same recovery I have installed though. What's different?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cmorris8848:
It's 2.6.3.0-selinux. It is needed for all 4.4 roms. It's not the same as 2.6.3.0
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Aloupha:
Oh thanks. That makes sense.

Is the zip version available?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cmorris8848:
I don't think so. I recommend flashing it via fastboot. That's how I've flashed all of my recoveries and haven't had a problem with any of them.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kmoo:
I have tried a lot of different things but only 3g/1x works for me, in 12/16 release LTE symbol is shown but no connection is established. I have tried booting into a sense based ROM but no change in connectivity after aPrl and profile update and flash back to a backup without data. Where are the prl files located in this ROM, since some said the flashing back and forth fixed the data issue. I have a prl file but just can't figure out how to overwrite the existing file. Tried APN fixes too to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Try the latest ;).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Chaosmaker2k:
I'm pretty sure its fixed up now. Using omni from 12-17 and data is solid and strong
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gorillaz1:
(EDIT) I should have asked...

Is anyone having luck with ART on the newer releases?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] morpheus6d9:
im running twrp v2.6.3.0

when i try to flash the rom i get the error executing updater binary in zip
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Chaosmaker2k:
Please read the mother fracking OP! You must use the recovery from there. Not the normal twrp. This one is modified. And I'm sure its been asked at least 20 times in this thread
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] morpheus6d9:
thanks for the help ive been the game for awhile
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kmoo:
Tried it, and no change. Still just 3g and that is it. LTE shows up but no data connection. Any thoughts or ideas how to fix it? Anything I can look at in a log file or a prl file to see what is going wrong?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
All I know is that LTE works. Did you confirm that LTE is selected in Mobile Networks? Have you tried switching to a different network type, then switching back? Have you tried toggling airplane mode? For the record, I don't have to do any of that to get a connection; it simply works. Are you sure you're in an LTE area? Have you downloaded an app like SignalCheck to confirm your device is receiving LTE signal?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gorillaz1:
I can confirm my LTE works in the two spots that I actually get it on my way to work for about 5 minutes all total (damn you Delaware).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Updated Post #3 with FAQ. If you ask a question that's already answered there, prepare to be ignored or trolled.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kmoo:
I have tried all of that every CM rom I have tried I have had data issues. I have gone back and forth between your stock 3.17 rom and cm10.2 and this cm11 rom and I have not been able to figure out why LTE is not working. The only thing that I can think of is that I am using Ting mvno as my provider to sprints networks and that might be the issue. I have strong 4g signal when on sense rom, and I can get a LTE symbol in the menu bar at the top along with signal but there is no data connection when I open up any app or try to get online.

Can someone send me a build prop by pm or something for me to double check to make sure that I have the correct files? I will try one more wipe and flash to see what happens.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Oh if you're not on Sprint, there's no help I can offer you. You probably need the APNs specific to your provider. Sense authenticates differently, I believe. Not sure what you're asking for in your last sentence. The ROM is the ROM.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kmoo:
I have an apn zip file that should work, but when I flashed it on a previous version 12/16 nothing changed. I'll try to flash the file again and see if it works. With this in mind anyone know what I can modify in the file system to accept a different apn? Other than flashing a zip file meant for the nexus 5. Thanks.

found the apns here

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xcheljd:
Try flashing a sense ROM. Make sure lte works in it. Install APN backup & restore. Backup APNs. Flash cm. Install APN backup & restore. Restore the backed up APNs.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gpz1100:
Regarding Ting. As far as I know, the activation process should be the same. If it's working in sense but not cm for you, I'd go into the test menu (*#*#4636#*#*) and make sure that lte is enabled.

Beyond that, you probably get more useful information on the TING forums.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] hpatel:
Is anyone having problems with Instagram? When I try to add a video I get a force close each time. I've done a clean flash as well and no luck!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] numel007:
Appears to be issue with 4.4.2 in general.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] A$hr@j:
CM11 & Xposed framework compatibility

I'm not sure if my below question should be in this thread or not -- So advance apologies!

I understand from Capt's post on 1st page that Notification/Status bar mod's have not been ported over from CM10.2---- but does that mean even Xposed framework can't change it???

I'm trying to change the battery icon using Xposed framework but it doesn't seem to be working. I do not get any force close/error but the icon just doesn't change.

I do not know if this a ROM issue or Xposed framework's compatibility issue -- but let me know if anybody has successfully modded something using Xposed.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] numel007:
If the module hasn't updated to 4.4, then yes it will not work. You'll have to wait for the dev.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ADM818:
Just use gravity box works fine for me.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Not all of them have been ported in, no, but you can change the battery icon now. But percentage is done differently on KitKat, so old mods won't work.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Lpast:
Anyone else's battery not reporting correctly with the newest release?

I don't even have the battery menu in the settings.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Huh? Bad flash?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] arcanecho:
I'm on Ting, but not running CM11 yet so I'm not sure if this info will help. However, on CM10.2, you can open voice dialer and say "Open APNs" and edit the APN info from there. Update LTE and EHRPD internet APNs to reflect Ting APN: n.t8.ispsn. MMS is http://plspictures.com
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Shredder87:
That actually worked for me! I've been wondering how to get to the apn settings on a system level to edit the settings and been lost. I'm no wiz on these things, I just know what to flash and not to flash. I'm on page plus and I've been using 8sms to get mms working. Great app but the less apps I don't need the better.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kmoo:
Thanks for your help, what finally worked is actually replacing the apn-conf.xml file in the zip of the rom before flashing. This seems to allow the proper registration with ting(sprint towers) so that everything works. I have LTE now and everything seems to work as expected. Thanks for everyone's comments I have included what I did step by step below for those who need or want to know.

Open rom zip and go to root/etc folder and look for apns-conf.xml file

Replace the file with the .xml file found in the following zip from ting website https://help.ting.com/attachments/token/pmjzxeigk3nighh/?name=Ting+APN+Android+4.3+version+3.zip

Close the rom zip after replacing the file and then flash rom then gapps

Make sure you are in a coverage area (does not have to be LTE) so that the phone can register appropriately

I did have to toggle mobile data on and off once to get LTE to work once I was in a LTE coverage area, but it worked.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Lpast:
Must of been a bad flash. Everything is working great. Thanks.

I can now install apps that I couldn't before.

Is there any way to have expanded desktop drop the notification bar after I get a notification?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Probably in the future. Features are still being ported in from 10.2. I seem to recall there being a patch for that previously.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] A$hr@j:
Screen Wake lag issue - work around

For all the people who are facing screen wake lag issue; there is a work around.

Basically, you need to enable the brightness slider (Adjust brightness by sliding over statusbar). Thus, if your screen doesn't wake up; then just slide your finger on the status bar and lo!behold the screen comes alive.... Now, this functionality isn't currently available in CM11 (12/17). It was available in CM10.2 and i'm sure it'll be ported over to CM11 pretty soon .

Meanwhile, you could follow the below steps to have it working:

1. Make a Nandroid.

2. Follow the steps within the thread and Install the Xposed Framework: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1574401

3. Follow the steps within the thread and Install the Gravity Box Module: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2554049

4. Within the Gravity Box app, you can activate "Enable Brightness control" under Statusbar tweaks.

5. Reboot and enjoy.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
^ Obviously you can't do this if you're one of the few people that has ART working.

I haven't really noticed the lag to a point that I feel a need to do anything about it. Plus the kernel I'm using has s2w built in and that seems to wake the screen consistently.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] A$hr@j:
Thanks -- I have not enabled ART --- so yeah, didn't know about that.

Which kernel are you using? I was about to search around but your suggestion would help immensely.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
I'm just using the stock kernel, with s2w included.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] A$hr@j:
Stock kernel has S2W included??? :mad: I didn't know that either.

Where did you enable it or are you using kernel tuner? 'cos I don't think it's enabled by default.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
I didn't say the stock kernel has s2w included. I said I'm using a stock kernel with it included. I build my CM from source, and I add it to my build ;).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] A$hr@j:
Ha!! That explains... You are such a tease. :p

On a serious note, you should really consider creating your own thread here with your version of CM... 'cos I'm pretty sure that S2W is not the only tweak/feature that you must have added. ;)

P.S.: Would you mind sharing your kernel with us/me?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bravo1565:
Is there a difference between the the build 12/17 and the one in the irc?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
To be honest, I don't even build mine unless deck or someone else has asked me to test something. I typically build CM straight from the source. I do add cherry picks here and there on occasion, but that's just to help test other features prior to them being merged. The only two "tweaks" I include in my personal builds are s2w, and disabled Exchange security policies. I've been trying to add in the Screen Recorder app, but that has been a miserable failure to this point.

I don't build the kernel separately from the ROM, so I don't have a kernel zip to give you. Sorry. This isn't an appropriate place to talk about it anyway as this is deck's thread.

What one in IRC? The topic in IRC links here. If there's a link when you join, just compare it to the link in the OP. Are they the same? Yes. Then there is no difference.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bjorn60:
I am also having LTE data issues. I can confirm connectivity with signal check pro and that indicates there is an active connection yet inside the ROM I can't. 3g works fine and to use data I have to set the phone to 3g only. Do any of the vets here have any good ideas? I am on the 12/18 build.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Latest build is 12/17. I think you're in the wrong thread.

At any rate, have you tried toggling mobile data off and back on again?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Aloupha:
Does Wifi Tether work with this rom? It's not working for me.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
The native tethering in this ROM works fine.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bjorn60:
Yeah, I have tried all the tricks. LTE just doesn't work. What thread should I be in (so I don't upset the natives) ;)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
If you're running a Nightly, you should be in the Nightlies thread, which is linked in Post 2.

I will be adding this question to the FAQ. Anyone else that posts in this thread that is running a Nightly will be subject to being ignored or trolled, as I previously stated.

I've had this happen to me randomly, toggling airplane mode fixes it
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Andromorphone:
A testament to ART? I've never had a screen on time even close to this. Had brightness on auto, interactive (and ondemand for the latter half) governors set.

Keeps gettin better & better.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] goffmj:
Yes, quite a bit. It seems I have to toggle airplane mode every time I turn the screen on to use it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thenags:
That's what I've been doing. However sometimes that doesn't even do it and I gotta do a full reboot.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] OakyTree:
I'm not having the screen issue, but my battery life has dropped dramatically since switching to this rom from meanbean.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Andromorphone:
I think you may have misunderstood: I'm not having a screen issue, rather my post & screenshots were meant to show how good battery life has been for me with respect to 'screen on time' - how much total time the screen is illuminated during a single charge cycle - a benefit I'm assuming is related (at least in part) to kitkat's new method of compiling apps known as ART (Android Run Time) vs the Dalvik/JIT method.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] OakyTree:
Ah, I did indeed. :/
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] yelped:
Hi,

I just started using this ROM, and it seems like every time the connection drops, the data stops working, and I could go hours without realizing, since it shows on the status bar that's it's connected to LTE or 3G. If I toggle mobile data on and off it works. Is this a known bug? What is the cause? Do you think it is able to be fixed soon?

Thanks!

Awesome work on the ROM!

Definitely appreciated!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scoot0073:
It's a known issue and they are working on it. And toggle airplane mode helps also
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
If toggling only mobile data works, why would you toggle airplane mode too (and disconnect all your connections)? The reason toggling airplane mode works is because it toggles mobile data.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jschill31:
Dear Captain,

Would you mind expanding on what you cherry picking to add this to the stock kernel? I also build mine from source and would love to add that feature.

Cheers
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
Is there any chance the new TWRP could break fastboot, adb, and mount storage if someone (me) is using it on 4.3?

My adb and fastboot is broke. But if I plug in in bootloader it does at least say 'fastboot USB, but when I tty to run fastboot or USB, it just scrolls the black page and commads for a sec, then closes. . If I plug in to my girls laptop (with adb installed) it says fastboot ac. Even though adb works fine on her sensation on her device. I can't even mount storage. I'm on DU ROM and it's been solid, but I haven't tried fastboot since I moved é months ago, and now I see of and storage is broke. Anyhow, I used the bpotloader of the new recovery, but I know I didn't do any erase commands. Adb, fastboot, and storage not showing/working.

Any ideas.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] OakyTree:
Did you do anything special to use ART? When I enabled it, it broke quite a bit.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fredgar75:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jschill31:
Captain,

I am completely new to cherry picking...I do understand the term but I am not exactly sure how to sync this with my cm11 build. Are you pulling the entire cm-otg-patch or just the add s2wake? Also would you be so kind as to indicate the line you add to pull this commit? Sorry to ask but I am still learning.

Thanks!!!

Update...

No need I did figure it out.

Thanks again (and thanks to ThickLizard there was more involved then I expected)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fredgar75:
I'm not sure then. Try the pa gapps and see if it fixes things for you. Art is working great for me.

Running one of the kk ROMs. Maybe.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] OakyTree:
Anyone have any ideas about how to fix the mmc1_detect wakelock issue?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gorillaz1:
I must say, aside from ART being fussy and some occasional Wifi issues at work (which may be work's fault) this might be the most stable ROM i've used on my HTC Evo.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cw0802:
I'll agree with Gorillaz. I've had the rare burp when transitioning from wifi to LTE but this ROM has been great for the past 4 days.

I do have a question. Is there a place where we can recommend feature enhancements? I recall back in the day when i had my original EVO 4G running CM, there were a couple great features that i'd love to see make their way to this ROM. For instance, and if they're already there and i'm just missing them feel free to call me an idiot and point me in the right direction, the ability to map a button to force close an app, or a setting to add another row or column.

Thanks again for all the hard work on this.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Andromorphone:
in developer options, set 'kill app back button' to be able to kill the foreground app by long-pressing the back button. it's at the very bottom of the list.

and if by "add row or column" you're referring to the number of home screens, to add more you just drag a new app or widget to the next screen to the right once you've run out of space (or at least have one thing) on your existing rightmost page.

if on the other hand you meant you want to increase the number of rows or columns on a single home screen, you'll have to use Nova or a similar 3rd party launcher.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] JGillis2391:
That long-press back to kill app really comes in handy I use it all the time.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jschill31:
Hello,

I could not be happier with this last build...thanks again Deck, Captain and Thick. The build I compiled last night has s2w working as well as WPA WiFi connectivity. It took 3 different apps to get one that actually activated the s2w feature but Kernel Tuner seems to do the trick.

Cheers
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
How'd you fix WPA?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jschill31:
I did not do anything...I just synced and built but for some reason it is working for both WPA & WPA2 on this one? I just figured it was fixed upstream and since I struggle to find any logs I didn't think anything of it. So this must be a fluke or have others recently started to see WPA working? My last sync was as of 4pm Sunday. I have been working on SlimKat for Jewel as well and my last build of that was on Friday and WPA was not working on that one so I am clueless??? I run two routers in my house, 1 on WPA and 1 on WPA2 and I did connect and get data throughput on both. Another thing that seems to be working that was not before is both SD1 & SD2 mount on USB, before it was just SD1.

Cheers
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Aloupha:
After running this ROM for a few days now, I am very impressed with its performance.

I am only experience long two issues with the ROM.

1. Connection: Very often my signal is not as strong as it should be in areas that I know have great signals. However, that's manageable. The real issue is that on many occasions I have signal (LTE or 3G) and no internet connections. I have to place the phone on airplane mode and taking it off for it to work. Rebooting the phone also does the trick.

2. Random Reboots: The phone has rebooted on Radom at least 3 times since I have been running this ROM for no apparent reason. I didn't install any additional mods.

Overall, I am very impressed. I specially love the speed on this ROM.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thenags:
Same issues here, but none are deal breakers or anything. I'm sure they'll be fixed soon.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] HeckNoTechnO:
M E R R Y C H R I S T M A S everybody!!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thenags:
So I've been using 12/17 since as soon as it came out with no issues at all (other than the data issue that everyone seems to be having). Haven't F'd with anything since the install. No tweaks or anything. And it's been running great. Worked great last night. Woke up with morning and Handcent is now crashing any time I try to send or receive an MMS. I've cleared all my messages, rebooted the phone, wiped cache, etc. The second someone sends me (or I send) an MMS Handcent becomes unresponsive and about 5 seconds later crashes. Probably has nothing even to do with the ROM, but wasn't sure where else to post. Any suggestions?

Thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Andromorphone:
shot in the dark, and I don't use handcent anymore, but 1st thing I try when having app issues on this rom (esp fc) is uninstall/reinstall the app in question (maybe with a reboot in between if I'm having a particularly hard time). and best bet is a fresh install from playstore (vs a tibu restore). if none of that works and you're really desperate to use that app, u might try wiping caches after uninstalling (during the reboot).

many of us had a similar issue with mxplayer, but that was an fc specific to mx not yet supporting this version of Android. you might peruse the recent playstore reviews for handcent to see if others running kitkat are having the same issue.
