Just an FYI

Yankee, Great Job!!!!

I flashed the new Y16 while coming from chubbzlou's Sense 5.5 (Also Great)

I used the new version of Superwipe for a clean Install

I had all kinds of FC's from Sense, and many Google errors.

I realized that I was using the previous release FirmWare 1-4.13.651.3, I was already using the new partition format so i didn't pay attention. (the problem right there)

I started over.

I flashed the new 1-4.13.651.4 FirmWare and TWRP 2.7.0.0b.

Flash New Superwipe

Flash Yankee Y16 Rom.

Now everything is working great.

My point is to make sure that you have the latest firmware version, there were a few different ones released recently.

Make sure that you have the .4 version.

Just trying to save some unneeded Q and A's

Great Job to all of the Dev's involved..

Ok weird issue I'm having on y16.. everytime I do a reboot/shutdown my xda disappears from my dock. Notice on screenshots.

Sent from HTC EVO 4G LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
More than likely, it is caused by the fact that xda installs to the internal SD by default, which has to be mounted before those apps become usable. If it was in a folder on the home screen, it would show as a ghost app after each reboot.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
The firmware version is the same throughout all three RUU versions (.1, .3 & .4). You're thinking about the software version.

Hey guys, just flashed this rom and its running great, but I cant connect my phone to my pc for some reason... It connects for usb debugging and i get the notifications on my phone, but I cant see my phone as a disk drive on my pc. I've tried tapping the usb icon for settings but that only shows settings for tethering and stuff. Any ideas?

EDIT: Nevermind, wiped my usb caches on windows and that seemed to do the trick.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lK0N:
When I was on Y11, during the installation I was able to remap the buttons and do some mods. Y16 didn't give me that option. Is there a way I can remap my buttons and make other changes like I did in Y11? I only ask because my power button is going out.

Thanks in advance,
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
Download OMJ's mod pack for Sense 5 or Sense 4, and scroll to the bottom. You can find the camera button remap section on the bottom. However, if you want the button to wake your device AND double as a search button while in Android, flash the attached zip.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lK0N:
Bad Ass, That worked. Thank you so much.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gstanke:
I can confirm that this also works on chubbz 4.3 sense 5.5

Actually, it works on every rom for the LTE; Sense, AOSP, & MIUI alike.

VVM Notification and email do not appear

Is anyone else having any issues with sprint VVM?

As of clean flashing Y16 from Chub's 5.5 I no longer receive voice to text emails or any VVM notifications

I can call into voice mail and retrieve.

I have wiped and reflashed, redownloaded, md5 check. Even gone back to reflashing PMGZIP file and started over.

If have also done plenty of Profile updates, ## resets, etc. even the complete ##786# reset with msl code.

Sprint Tech see's my messages, but cant find an answer after 2 days of work so far. escalated to higher level of tech for 1 day.

Any Idea's anyone??? Im ready to flash back to Chub's 5.5 to see what happens, but i figured that I would ask.

I searched the thread and only see an issue reported from back in 2013 regarding hangouts.????

Thanks in advance for any help.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] goliath714:
I noticed this as well. The VVM app seems to not be working in this rom, but works fine in the 5.5 rom. I tried updating the app but it just says general failure, whereas the 5.5 rom just says there are no updates available. It's as if the one in this rom doesn't want to connect to the server.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Hand full of Peter:
Wow, Thank you for the info!

I have been going crazy, thinking that since noboby else posted, that it was my phone..

Very frustrating to miss vm's and having to check between my system and Sprint....

No fix yet, but I feel alittle better.. :) Misery loves Company...

Thanks
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wallie71:
I'be been using YouMail for a while now. A replacement to VVM with more customization. There is a free version in the play store.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Hand full of Peter:
UPDATE:

I wiped everything.

Re-Flashed Chub's 5.5

Went through the complete setup of accounts

Disabled Premium VVM Service in VVM App

##72786# to re-provision phone

Subscribed to Premium VVM Service in VVM App

Activated Sprint VVM using activate@vvm.sprint.com from Voicemail app apter recording 20 second message

I finally called my phone and left a VM.

Within 30 seconds, the previous VM's started rolling in and I got an email from the last VM left.

Fixed.

But did not work on Y16 :(

Just FYI

I don't know how many have a problem??? Only the post #2504
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
Sprint VM has been a hit or miss for me in everything. From updating the App to receiving voice mail on time, it has been very inconsistent, and this is has the same typical behavior on any rom. But that's just me.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Hand full of Peter:
Same for me, but I've never lost both indicators (Text to E-mail and Message indicator) together. Text to e-mail has always been first sign of a message for me. The VM App indicator doesn't work more than it does on any ROM... Agreed...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Osirus71:
Hmm....Im on Y15 and its working fine....No issues....:confused:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Hand full of Peter:
???????????????????????????????

Another Update:

I have wiped clean and reflashed Y16

My text to email is now working great (Maybe provisioning on the Sprint system?)

I do not get any notifications from my VM App? (stock from Rom)

I dug into the 3 Roms that I've used in the past: Stock Rooted DeOdex, Chub's 5.5, and Y16

The VM app is the same size in Stock and Chubs 5.5 both (3,728,168 bytes), but is larger in Y16 (3,729,349 bytes).

The 3 .APK are in the link to DB

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/a1chxlax01bx138/ZFzAWVTBUa

I've tried to uninstall VM app from Y16 using TB and install the .APK from Chubs and Stock, but install failed.

When I'm in camera app, and I click the thumbnail (bottom right corner) to open the gallery, something tries to open and I get the "complete action using" pop-up. If i choose the Gallery app, i can't scroll through the pictures, if i hit "back" once, i'm put into the gallery and then i can scroll through pics/vids.

if i choose not to select an app when "complete action using.." pops up, i'm placed in the gallery, and i can scroll, but any time i click the thumbnail, it will pop-up with the "complete action using"..

Has anyone else had similar issues?

thanks,

-m0
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] goliath714:
This happens every time you have more than one app that can open an item. Like the Google Photos app and the gallery. It will continue to happen until you check the box that says make default. The same will happen when you open hyperlinks, it will ask you which browser you'd like to open them with. It's a core function of android.

Edit: Also, in Sense, when you click on the thumbnail the default action is to only open the last picture taken, then go back to the gallery when you hit back. Again, this is a default action of the Sense UI. This was also present in sense 4. What Rom are you coming from where these things don't happen? Only aosp roms open the thumbnail and allow scrolling, but the pop-up will always be there as long as you have more than one app that can complete the action.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] drich66:
Just noticed, mine will just open the last pic taken and only offer the details icon. No action tab. I thought this was just part of the app.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] goliath714:
It is part of the app. It may have something to do with the fact that this particular camera app is not meant for our phone since it has Zoe and the default Evo LTE camera from the latest update does not. There may be an issue with opening thumbnails because normally there are other action options.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Pyr0TeK:
Anyone find a workaround for wifi tether? I loaded PDAnet with FoxFi and it connects but just tells me it has a limited connection and I can't pass traffic from my laptop through the phone to the net. Other apps?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mai0f:
I understand what you're saying. I've been on Venom ROM mostly with this phone, but I've tried other ROMs in the past. My question/issue is, even when I do select Gallery as the default app, it opens that media (pic or vid) without letting me scroll to any others. When I hit back, then I'm in the gallery, and it lets me scroll. I haven't come across this with previous ROMs, but then again, this is the first ROM I've tried with Zoe, and on 4.3. If this is normal for the camera app, I understand, but like I mentioned, I haven't encountered this in the past.

thank you for your quick reply,

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gstanke:
I had this issue on captains stock 4.3 rom, not really an issue just somewhat annoying. Switched to sense 5.5 from sin and chubbz no problem with gallery. Click the thumbnail in the corner and it goes right to gallery (able to scroll without hitting back button) might just be a sense 5 thing.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Andromorphone:
it seems that twrp 2.7.0.0 needs to have compression enabled to be able to successfully back up the system partition. pretty sure it's a known issue & in the process of being fixed.

and we won't have full write/erase capabilities via fastboot until we get a custom hboot 2.10
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gstanke:
Thanks. I was told this somewhere else and updated my q&a thread for it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wallie71:
Some time back i purchased easytether which allows bluetooth tethering. Think foxfi does also. One thing that was always an issue is that some apps did not recognize the BT connection and so they would not access the internet. In the easytether Q&As i found that there is a workaround for this limitation. Basically all you have to do is first sign on to a dummy wifi network, one without internet access, and then pair the BT connection. Since the native hotspot does not work, unless you've hacked it, it serves that purpose. It worked fine using easytether as the BT tethering option. Hope that helps.

this is small guide on how to test your ROM. this is how i do my testing on all my roms

wipe partitions

1-superwipe

2-wipe/advanced wipe

*dalvik cache, cache, data, and system

3-factory reset

first boot settings

1-setup screen. wait for the screen turn off

2-screen on, skip everything

3-home screen, wait for the screen turn off

3-screen on, settings/display, gestures & buttons

*screen timeout 1 hour. you don't want to be turning on your device all the time, you can change it later.

*recent apps button/click press for menu

4-settings/activate this device

5-settings/system updates

*update firmware, profile, prl

5-settings

*open everything to make sure no fc n setup your settings while you do this. note: don't sync with Google yet. sync/Google is the last setup.

6-if you have all your settings, now is time to sync with Google. wait till it finish.

on wifi or lte. 3g you can do this too, but it's slow

1-open all apps n setup your settings

2-play store. don't update yet. if wifi is enable it will do some apps automatic. that's OK.

3-xposed. open xposed/framework click on install/update, it will ask for root. back to modules n enable sense 5 toolbox. open toolbox. it will ask for root. setup your settings.

normal reboot

1-do a normal reboot to get more performance

2-wait for screen to turn off.

3- lte or wifi

*update your apps/play store

4-if you have titanium backup like me. restore all you apps n data. when done open those apps.

5- final reboot

enjoy :good::good:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] hasseye:
Hey Yankee been on Captains Sense 5.5 and just saw the development that has gone on over here. Some great stuff, def thinking of switching back over.

I didn't notice which version of sense you're using tho. Is it 4.3 Sense 5.0? If so, any reason why you haven't gone to 5.5?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gstanke:
I think earlier he said he was going one so at a time. Wanted to get a bug free sense 5 before going to sense 5.5
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
I know that I might get some flak for this, but 5.0 seems to run a little better than 5.5 when navigating through the launcher itself. And no...removing widgets, Blinkfeed, and folders is not an option for me.

I have noticed that loading the lockscreen, dropping the notifications, and little things like that are ultimately a little smoother on 5.0, and the *very minor* delays only get worse with time. I'm quite the flashaholic, so I usually flash something else before it gets to this point.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] hasseye:
what differences from Sense 5.0 to Sense 5.5 did you notice? Only using Sense 5.5 so not sure. I feel like Sense 5.5 isn't as smooth as it could be, but I'd hate to downgrade lol unless there's not that much difference.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Hand full of Peter:
[MENTION=1785971]Yankee2[/MENTION]450, Thank You!!!

I can confirm that the Sprint VVM now works great!!

My phone just downloaded 20 new VM's to the stock app.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
Sense 5 vs 5.5

It depends on your taste. The differences are minimal, and only noticeable involving the launcher (lockscreen included). While I really like the new Gallery, I get a hiccup every time I turn on my phone after about 2 days, and that is slightly irritating. That why I spend more time on 5.0. And the options for Blinkfeed are better, but I find that the performance suffers. It takes a bit longer to refresh with new pages.

Concerning my comment about less elements in 5.0...pinch the homescreen to see the widgets on both 5.0 and 5.5 (preferably with no icons or widgets), and you may notice that the animations in 5.5 look smoother due to more frames in the transistion. However, fill up the screen, and that smoothness suffers plenty.

For those who use lockscreen widgets and/or security (I use the pattern lock), this slows downs the wake time of the phone by a little. Yes, the music widget is convenient, and the transparency for the security looks good as well, but all of these extra UI elements call for extra resources.

When using the stock music app, the notification cannot be minimized due to the fact that it is now animated and always an active notification (because of the progress ring around the play button). Looks nice, but I want the extra space sometimes.

These are not complaints, but mere observations. Lastly, don't forget that Sense 5.5 is a port, and still a WIP. Sense 5.0...not as much.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dlitwin:
Well, I downloaded Y17. Used superwipe. manually wiped cache/dalvik/system following the directions in the first post.

verified MD5 on both downloaded file and on Y17 after transferring to ext-SD. Both correct.

started to flash Y17. seems to be going OK. when it gets to the part about writing symlinks, etc. the phone immediately reboots.

phone sits on white HTC screen for over 10 mins.

I end up forcing a reboot.

Am I not waiting long enough, or is there a problem with the file? I only ask because Y16 didn't behave like this.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] yankees2450:
Once you wipe everything, reboot recovery then flash Rom.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Hand full of Peter:
Which Recovery are you using? 2.7 or 2.6.3.1b

I was having issues using 2.7 twrp so I went back. files are in post 1 or 2.

It seemed to me that the wiping function and partitioning were not working correctly between superwipe (new version) and twrp 2.7 wipes (Completely unconfirmed) (I noticed strange things but couldn't pinpoint)

Try doing your manual wipes and then run the superwipe new version last. Superwipe appears to setup the new partition structure better than twrp 2.7.0.0b ???

Then install the ROM Y17. (my install went smoothly)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cirehawk:
Same thing is happening to me.

Edit: I don't know if it was yankees suggestion to boot back into recovery after wiping, or Peter's suggestion to run superwipe AFTER doing TWRP wipe (I did both), but I was able to successfully flash.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dlitwin:
OK. Got it to flash fine now.

Using TWRP 2.7.0.0b

Manually wipe cache/dalvik/system using twrp

Flash Superwipe

Flash Y17 ROM. Flash process completes successfully this time.

Reboot phone.

Follow Yank's initial post recommendation about setting up

Originally I didn't see I was using 2.7.0.0b. Thought I was still on 2.6.3.0b from Captain 4.3/Sense 5 stock ROM

I had done Superwipe then twrp wipe. Partitions may have got messed up prior to Y17 flash, hence the reboot.

Hope this helps others out.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gstanke:
If you were to read captain thread with the modified Twrp you would see the last line of the first post states "if phone reboots during first install, reboot to recovery and flash again."
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cirehawk:
I did that and still got the reboot issues. However, I got the ROM to flash now.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gstanke:
Did you rewipe after you had to reboot to recovery? If so that is probably the issue. For me it always reboots during install after wipe. I noticed this and I dont rewipe after recovery reboot. Works every time.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Freelancerx:
so why was the zoe camera removed? i thought it was a great addition, used it all the time.
