Brief test of the ROM

Got it flashed no problem.

Had to add the roaming fix.

No rotation.

No camera.

GPS works fine.

Bluetooth comes on and pairs correctly with Win7 machine, but won't connect. Advertises no services to the PC.

Bluetooth comes on and pairs correctly with Garmin NUVI for speakerphone. Recognizes it as a phone audio device, but refuses to connect.

Let me know if you need more details.
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
just flashed this over the PC36IMG.zip

getting the same experience as others:

LED light constant on

Roaming indicator on (didnt try the eri.xml patch)

Rotate doesn't work in messenging app

Bluetooth pairing with my WEP470 headset doesnt work. Put headset in discovery mode, EVO sees it, tap on it to pair and it says Bluetooth pairing request in white letters and greys out everything else. Wait 2 min, didnt change. Hit the back error and got process com.android.settings has stopped unexpectedly.

First impression, the graphics and display is not as bright as stock EVO.

hope that helps!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tenny:
I don't think so... but I don't know 100%...

I mean, you could boot into recovery, push market fix then reboot then do the check in. In my eyes, that should work. Though I am not 100%....

edit, Now I am wondering even if you do that, will you see it? I mean Flash is 2.2, and we are "tricking" the phone into seeing it as a 2.1 device right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
i got the adobe update this moring, and i can see all the protected apps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] blazeball02:
Thanks p-slim for taking your time to try to help solve my problems. Im really lost in CosmoCanyon's post that you quoted. I didn't think i was this much of a noob because the actual rooting process wasn't too difficult for me. When you (technically Cosmo) speak of pushing market_fix.txt to android-sdk/tools is where i am getting lost. Where is this market_fix.txt? UGH! This is really frustrating for me and if im annoying anyone here with my novice questions I sincerely apologize.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tenny:
Look at the actual post not the quote as it is attached. Then just drop it in the folder then push ;)

[EVO 4G Android Development] blazeball02:
Thanks guys, found the market_fix.txt

I'm really terrible at this kind of stuff..i managed to get through the root and installing of this rom through a video guide which is probably why im struggling so much here. Anyways i basically don't know what to do with this file. Do i put it somewhere on the sd card before going into recovery mode? The codes that are in yellow are throwing me off big time. Hopefully you guys don't give up on me just yet. *fingerscrossed*
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
you have to do this through adb. if you don't know how to use adb, it would be pretty hard for me to explain except to make sure you follow the steps step by step.
[EVO 4G Android Development] blazeball02:
Yeah i understand. I almost feel like i could figure it out if i just knew where "/android-sdk/tools/" was so i could put the market_fix.txt there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
that is something you should have downloaded and put and in your C: drive
[EVO 4G Android Development] blazeball02:
Hah wow thank you very much. Somehow i missed where it told me i would probably need to download that. I'll try and figure it out from here as i feel i have asked WAY too many questions. I appreciate you trying to help as much as you could though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Guys if you want flash, just download the apk

http://3dslice.net/downloads/android/Flash10.1.apk
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
same thing here..ive done the market fix multiple times and still cant find some stuff..layar is a no go for me to
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
Im not sure if using that build.prop will ruin anything but I will know here soon. Its worth a shot..
[EVO 4G Android Development] awesomerobot:
I've been running V7 for about two days now as my daily and it's going pretty well. I am having the problem with the Market, and I'll try the fix later - but most of the apps I typically use (except Layar, boo!) are available for me so I hadn't even noticed before reading through this thread.

For some reason I was having a GPS problem within the built-in weather app at first (3rd party versions were working) - but I switched in and out of airplane mode and it fixed itself (I'm guessing the GPS just needed a restart?).

Really, the only two issues that bother me in the slightest are the lack of ability to sync my contacts with Facebook (syncing with Twitter and Last.FM work fine) and of course, the cameras (though really I only care about the rear-facing one).

Great ROM, I'm really impressed by the work that has gone into this!
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
I don't know how savvy you are with changing build props and ADB but if you're around a wifi area you can fix your facebook like this. the reason you have to be around wifi is because that build prop broke my radio so i was unable to use 3g. go to that particular post and download the build props. DO NOT DO THIS IF YOU ARE A NOOB.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jedil1c1ous:
I was able to flash this rom by instead using ROM Manager instead of the ClockWork utility, but I have a few questions/problems with it.

1. How do I get Visual Voicemail working on it? Can I download an app?

2. I'm experiencing a problem where my phone is not going into sleep mode now when it should. It's constantly running an app in the background but I can't figure out which one. What's the easiest way to find the culprit?

Thanks all.
[EVO 4G Android Development] phinnaeus:
I use Google Voice. Works great, Easy set up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
The sprint visual voicemail apk is posted throughout this thread. Use the tool to view all attachments of this thread or do a search of this thread and you will find it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jedil1c1ous:
When I try to download this, it fails and says "Content Not Supported". Is there something wrong with my flash?
[EVO 4G Android Development] crackerstyle:
You need to install it using something like EStrongs File Explorer. It won't install using the default package installer.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jedil1c1ous:
Tried to install browsing with Astro and clicked the package installer -> install button. Fails with no other message besides "Application Not Installed".
[EVO 4G Android Development] Obama's>god:
just so everyone knows you can't use layar anyways. no camera ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ajg23:
Wow, thanks for this great work. So since we'll get eclair versions of apps with this build.prop, I'm guessing that we'll get less-aggressively-updated versions in addition to possibly unstable versions?

So maybe it would be best to use this build.prop only for apps that we can't otherwise see, but then go back to the original build.prop?

Thanks again!

How do I install?

Already unlocked Nand and Have permanent recovery menu, how do I flash this and other roms, I downloaded the one file but is that all I need? What do I do from here, please advise. Thanks. :confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] jedil1c1ous:
Does this require Nand unlocked? I can't seem to get this package to install no matter what file explorer I use.
[EVO 4G Android Development] crackerstyle:
Not sure honestly. I have nand unlocked though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] crackerstyle:
First you'll need to copy the rom zip file to the root of the sd card.

Then you reboot into the recovery console.

If you want you can back up your current setup going to Backup/Restore and doing a nand backup. (not a bad idea in case something happens)

If not then go to Wipe and first go to Wipe data/factory reset and run that, then go to Wipe Dalvik cache and run that.

Go back to the main screen and choose flash zip from sd card. Choose the zip file you downloaded and you're off and flashing the new rom. Afterwards reboot as requested.

Re: (Rom) EVOlution-Update V7

So what was the final verdict on the 4G? If we get the 4g radio turned on, will it connect to 4G?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ajg23:
At this point on my Windows 7 machine (running recovery-windows.bat), my command line gets stuck at

nohup: appending output to nohup.out

(this appears just to be a log file?)

The way to get past this is to press CTRL+C (breaks batch files such as the recovery-windows.bat which we're running here) and then pressing "Y" when asked "Terminate batch job (Y/N)?" Then you can continue with the process (at "adb push market_fix.txt /system/build.prop").

Hope this is helpful for anyone else whose batch file got stuck!

Thanks to all for the help!

[EVO 4G Android Development] ajg23:
Hm, I can't get to Handcent in the Market, even after the build.prop fix (which did let me get to other apps I'd paid for). You already had the APK? Any way you can post it?

[same thing for: Google Translate, PowerStrip (which I'd purchased)]

PS: Oh! Maybe it isn't showing up because it's not compatable with Eclair (which the build.prop tells the Market is my OS)? They were saying that the Market was going to start limiting app installation to certain phones/OSs...Anyway, still would love to install manually!
[EVO 4G Android Development] CreamyNougat:
Hopefully V8 is:

- coming soon;

- fixes market;

- fixes MMS;

- fixes at least one camera.

I can't stand Sense UI.

The only reason I'm still holding on to the EVO is that I tried AOSP 2.2 on it and see the potential of the device.

If nothing happens by July 4th (30 day grace period), the EVO is going back.

P.S. And HTC is now sending threatening letters left and right. OK HTC. Have it your way.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bencredible:
I have to agree, this ROM is a godsend. I came from a Nexus One where I had stock 2.1 and then upgraded to 2.2 and was very, very happy with my Android experience. When I bought my Evo I was surprised to see that many of the features I know and love on Android were ripped out and replaced with HTC crapware. It reminded me of when I bought Windows computers back in the late 90's with RealPlayer, AOL, MSN and all that other garbage that you didn't want installed on the system. Took 10 minutes to set up and 2 hours to uninstall all that junk. Of course the difference here is that HTC tries to lock us in to the HTC experience with Sense and whatnot, which is frankly quite terrible when compared to a stock 2.2 in my opinion.

My only two wishlist items are of course the camera and getting Facebook sync to work without the wacky hack outlined on page 60 something in this thread. Otherwise, I just wanted to say that this is a fantastic port and it is what is keeping me on my Evo. THANK YOU to the devs and the entire community for this. Simply awesome!
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpkimmel:
why do people complain about sense when you can just turn it off.....
[EVO 4G Android Development] Fadakar:
Yeah once the camera's are working you can definitely expect a donation, just graduated and the money's flowing in. ;D
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
That's because you can't turn sense off. You can only turn the sense launcher off, BIG difference.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpkimmel:
guess i really don't understand the diff...so...
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpkimmel:
quick note, how do you guys put your phone types and stuff under you post?..also who was the FIRST skynet?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bencredible:
But you can't re-install the default browser, default contacts, default mail client... All of which is part of the Sense experience. All you can really shut off is the Sense launcher, but you're still stuck with all the Sense crapware.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
So you should probably do some research before posting :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
Be happy happy :)

Ok well cameras are not going to happen for awhile. I will put out a very stable froyo tonight with time permitting. After that gets out ill go back to the aosp 2.1 i started and start fixing things there. So no worries people. As i stated before when we get source we can make modifications to make cameras work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpkimmel:
i never turned it off, just flashed with customs roms..so i thought maybe it defaulted to the orig apps..sorry
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tenny:
Did you figure out why the Market is working for some and not others?

Will this be O/C'able?
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
The market was not working for me, I made it work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tenny:
I know... I've helped people too over the past few days. That build.prop, doesn't work for everyone... I assure you I've messed with about 10 different build.props, made my own, etc. I still have a very limited market... So I am asking if he figured any "other" fixes out...
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
Yeah no fix at all would be best. I'm pretty sure they're the same but try the build.prop from the Facebook fix, that's the one I'm using since I wanted my Facebook fixed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
well there is also two there though..the nexus one to use when installing and syncing with facebook but after syncing it calls for using the market_fix one attached.

so you're using the market_fix from that exact post or the nexus one from that same post?
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
USE THE MARKET FIX!!! don't touch the nexus thing. I'm using that exact market fix.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
Do the caps mean you're yelling at me? lol thanks for clarifying.
[EVO 4G Android Development] robg2008:
great job man cant wait to get the new version tonight, kinda hoping the market fix will already be on it i have had alot of issues getting it to work. and i have tried about 12 times. (still cant get handcent sms)

im very excited for you to put out an aosp. it if anything like your work on froyo its gonna be the best rom out there

keep it up man
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tenny:
Yup they are the same.

[EVO 4G Android Development] vboyz103:
Apps2sd is not working in this ROM, at least for me. Anyway to enable apps2sd in froyo do:

1. adb shell

2. pm setInstallLocation 2

3. Now go into the phone Settings - Applications - Management and click on app you want to move to SD, and there's a "Move to SD" button. I got "Failed moving" error every time.

To move back, in step #2 instead of 2 just put a 0 such as "pm setInstallLocation 0".
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
This is not how you enable apps2sd. Apps2sd is already suppose to be enabled on froyo its just nit working on this current version of this rom. Your code is how you enable default location for apps to be stored on SD card automatically. By placing a zero will make the internal the default location. Option 1 the system will choose.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Apo11on:
Is there anything else besides cameras which does not work in this ROM?

Has anyone tried to install Sense UI on top of this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] david279:
nobody's gonna put sense on this....
[EVO 4G Android Development] Apo11on:
I know at least 2 people (besides myself) who would...if you dont like Sense UI it's your personal preference - you shouldnt say "nobody" as you cannot possibly represent the opinion of the entire world.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
Well being that sense isn't just a cab you can install and HTC hasn't created a 2.2 rom with sense, nobody is going to put sense on 2.2 until HTC releases a rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bbedward:
HTC has none of the source code released for sense ui afaik, so it's impossible to implement on a rom where it isn't already implemented :O
[EVO 4G Android Development] Apo11on:
I've read about a bunch of people who put sense ui on vanilla android, like this guy:

http://jkontherun.com/2010/04/26/htc-sense-ui-on-the-nexus-one-— first impressions/

and they seem to like it, without any performance degradation...many of these folks are using custom roms, and i'm assuming a few of them might be froyo...

I'm not really sure about the accuracy of information in the previous post
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
Re: (Rom) EVOlution-Update V7

I tried sense ui on my nexus and you know where I got it from, the desire port, that's how Paul and them made it work. Like we stated until, once HTC makes a 2.2 rom with sense 1st, then it will be possible.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Apo11on:
i'm afraid evo froyo rom may not be happening for a few more months....question: if Google release the kernel sources with drivers before HTC froyo rom- would it be possible to port sense ui, having the kernel sources?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Cayniarb:
Admittedly I do not speak for 1000% of people, but I think most people here are looking for a 100% working AOSP Froyo (2.2) ROM. That is the priority. For the few people who are looking for a Sense UI overlay on 2.2, I think you have one of two choices: 1. wait for the devs here to perfect and AOSP Froyo ROM AND wait for HTC to release the source code for their apps (which will probably never happen) and then come up with some way to port that code into Froyo or, 2. wait for HTC to make a Froyo ROM.

For everyone else, keep holding out hope (like I am) that the camera and native MMS support can be coerced into working n 2.2 (or for HTC/Google to release the source on the kernal so we can pull the appropriate drivers out).
[EVO 4G Android Development] bleomycin:
Couldn't agree more. Fantastic work so far, i can easily live without the camera's working until HTC releases the source assuming its not sometime next year :/
[EVO 4G Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
alright everyone info update time.

soooooo i have been at this rom for 2 weeks now every night for about 4-5 hours. fixing little things.

here is what i CAN NOT fix for now.

Cameras-theres no way to get them right now. there are still ideas floating around but so far about 15 things have not worked.

Auto backlight and LED- i cant get this to work correctly. the flash leds are the issue. everytime i apply the fix in the ramdisk it bootloops. sooo im going to do more tests tonight real quick to see if theres a bypass.

BT- same issue. when i apply the fixes it boot loops.

many people will remember with the hero that when we ported 2.1 before it came out, we had these 100% same issues. its just that 99% of libs are portable with a huge firmware leap.

i will continue work on this but not as much. i will begin uploading a rom at 2:30 eastern time tonight. any little issues will be fixed with time :)

thanks for the support everyone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] justinisyoung:
guys, you don't install sense ui on an AOSP rom. the instructions to 'install' sense ui is mainly flashing an HTC Desire ROM, which has sense.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Apo11on:
Avalaunchmods thanks for the hard work. Everybody should buy you a $beer...Hate to be the buzz kill, but murphy's law says HTC will release evo froyo rom next day after you get the cameras and everything else to work
[EVO 4G Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
sorry its late but i ran into an issue. im about to upload
[EVO 4G Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
updated. post up little issues and i will add updates to fix but this will be the last rom change until theres a huge fix
[EVO 4G Android Development] StillSound:
I asked a question, but it was answered. Then I tried deleting the post, but I'm retarded. Sorry for the waste of a post, guys.
[EVO 4G Android Development] scooter185:
i liked V7, but went back to DC3.whatever. Gonna try out V8 though! Thanks for the time and effort to try and get Froyo working.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jodhas:
Agreed. AOSP please...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
found a phone bug. i will post a new rom up soon. no worries to the people who flashed already you can just flash it over. sorry bout that
[EVO 4G Android Development] StillSound:
This may have been answered, but what filesystem does Froyo support? I have a notification up top that says "Blank SD card" "SD card blank or has unsupported filesystem.

Of course it's not blank, it has the ROM on it lol but is it supposed to be NTFS or FAT32, or whatever the hell they are these days?

I apologize if this was in one of the 85 or so pages I skimmed through.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
are you saying the one on page one is bad? are you going to let us know here once that new rom is up?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
yes. and of course i will.

i was working on getting everything working perfect i forgot to test the phone part of the phone :P
[EVO 4G Android Development] scooter185:
it's late, will flash the hot fix in the morning. Loving V8 so far though :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sceleus:
The rom link on the first page isn't working for me. Eager to test out V8. Did you take it down to upload new file or am I just dumb?
[EVO 4G Android Development] binxer:
I'm guessing he took it down to hotfix the phone problem. Can't wait to try the new one :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
ok uploading fixed version

i fixed voicemail and added it to the rom. i took out flash. fixed phone bug.

so we are set ill post bump when its finished
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tundricles:
so whats the issue with cam? put it out in the open, details,.. so we can get it fixed quick.. not going to put froyo on my phone if the main feature doesn't function lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
hahaha. theres alot. the simplest way to put it is we dont have what we need to make them work. 2.1-2.2 has completely different api's. so dont get excited we wont get them anytime soon. as i have stated before and as all other devs will tell you, we will work on it but if it does get solved its 100% luck.

ok new version is up. test it have fun. use flash, games all that good stuff. report back your finds.

im out its 5:17. work tom. have fun everyone!

Great work man, got it loaded up and got everything setup on it again. Working great and super fast. got 1260 on quadrant. Still just under the nexus 2.2, damn fps cap xD. Please put the haptic feedback levels back though.

Anyone know of a way to calibrate g-sensor?
