I was just going to wait it out, and watch for different fixes for the 4g, but I felt I should also add in here as well. There have been a lot of people who have had success with whitslack's method, or the many other "fixes". There is also some confusion as to what caused the 4g issues.... It seems a lot of people are claiming it is due to the unrEVOked method of ROOT causing the problem, and others claim it is unrEVOked2. I did not use either of these methods, and I had/have the 4g issues. Originally, I had the screwed up MAC address. I used the method listed in one of the threads to get the MAC back, and now have the correct MAC address. I used the "Fresh signed 4g fix", which did nothing to restore my 4g. I used the method described in the 2nd post here and still have had no luck. Over the past week, I have tried all the different methods described, and still have no 4g. This problem has followed me from DC 3.2.2.1, 3.2.3, both with and without the Aloysious Themes. I have used the Aloysious 3.0.3 ROM, which is based of the Fresh 0.3 ROM, and have tried the Fresh 0.3 ROM itself. Also used a 1.47 rooted stock ROM and Baked Snack v8. Over all the different ROMs I have tried, and all the different fixes I have tried, I have had not change. 4g will Turn on, Scan, Connect with Sprint, Authenticate, Scan, Turn off, and repeat. Sometimes it will not authenticate, only Turn on, scan, connect, turn off repeat.

I DO NOT claim it to be a problem caused by any of the ROM's, or ROOT methods, I did flash an updated Radio and Wimax around the time I first installed DC 3.2.2.1. I couldn't tell you which Radio/Wimax I flashed, since it was some time ago, and at the time, there were good returns coming back about the update.

I blame NOBODY but myself for my phones current problems, It is not the fault of any developer, or their ROMs, Kernels, etc. WE chose to ROOT our phones, WE chose to flash the custom ROMs/fixes/kernels. I wish other people would stop trying to blame everyone else about their phones problems, and step up like an adult and realize, WE took the risk by choosing to do this, WE are the only ones to blame for our current situation. Let the Developers do their thing, patiently wait out the next fix, and give ACCURATE, DETAILED feedback on what they are experiencing from the "Fix" being tried.

Sorry about the rant, but I feel a lot of this needed to be said.

I posted here, because I too am running the DC 3.2.3 ROM. I originally rooted with Jiqqaman's Simple 3-step, but due to a botched Hboot , I manually went through Toast's step 2. Keep up the great work guys. Thanks for a GREAT rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] TrevE:
yes. Wifi should work fine in these now. I also updated post 2. im going to paste this here too just incase nobody reads.

These are for people who know what they are doing. Please dont even attempt to use this if you dont know what they do. YOU ARE FLASHING THESE AT YOUR OWN RISK DONT BLAME ME WHEN YOU NEED TO WIPE OR WORSE YOUR DEVICE EXPLODES! If you read this and think freekin sweet these kernels are for you. If your scared just continue on and DO NOT FLASH.

*edit* the above rant + this is perfect :P
[EVO 4G Android Development] Fixter:
Treve, was that ffolkes kernel that you posted a couple of pages back? I flashed it and I don't have Wifi. If I flash the other one, will I be able to regain Wifi? I don't mind the Wifi but since you said Wifi should be working now. I got confused.
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
DC devs rock!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] BB15:
I don't mean to break up the kernel talk, but I just wanted to pipe in and say that after a few DConfig tweaks yesterday my battery life is off the charts! I unplugged 14 hours ago and I'm currently at 68%. :cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
One more question

1 more Trev, so those two that have "FIXED" on the end of them, are they both 5 point multitouch kernels?
[EVO 4G Android Development] TrevE:
the other ones i did i was at work that does not work, use the one in the post above you, those should fix you up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
Got any screenshots of your settings?
[EVO 4G Android Development] TrevE:
glad your lovin it, the new kernels (if you want to play) + setcpu with profiles should give you a pretty mean savings ontop of that too

yes they are both ffolkes novatech fps "fixed" and 5 point multitouch. one is undervolt (doesnt work for everyone) one is normalvolt (what im running)
[EVO 4G Android Development] West650:
Questionn.

I'm currently on v3.2.1, so before going on to v3.2.3, I have to do the following below first?

thats your best bet. you can nandroid, run that method, then restore your nandroid afterwords then update to dc. of course wiping will be cleanest though..

Care to share your tweaks/settings? I've got decent life when idle, but I still drain fairly quickly while in use.

[EVO 4G Android Development] robtrevino:
So now I decided to try it again.

I went over here, did all the steps. Then erased my tree.xml file. Updated profile, updated prl. Reset the phone and I still get 4G loops. Could it be possible it's broken from something else? Is there any way I can go back to stock and make it work?
[EVO 4G Android Development] spinkteck:
I just flashed the godmode kernal for espon and from wha i been reading in the thread i just wanted to know what is multitouch point? how do i find out about that?

My camera, wifi, tether, and everything is working fine, but i just dont understand what is multi point thingie? how do i find out?, i did the benchmark and my average is 50-55 fps :P
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jykinturah:
Use an app called dotty in the market.

BTW, it should be made clear that 5 point multitouch does not work for everyone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SouL Shadow:
Question, are you in an official 4g area? Cus I remember reading in another thread that the ota changes prevent you from using 4g in areas (maybe even towers) that haven't officially gone "live" yet.

-SLS-
[EVO 4G Android Development] robtrevino:
Well, I'm in DC. It used to work here. So I guess it's not an "official" area because it's listed as "soon" on sprint's website. But it did work before. Where did you hear this rumor from? Anyone else experiencing this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] liquidkernel:
Strange issue.

Decided to do a wipe and install 3.2.3 from scratch. I did a TI backup of all my apps and their settings. When I go to restore, installation of any app (with and without data) fails.

I used the 2-step root method, NAND unlocked, everything is gravy.

Is there something I'm missing?
[EVO 4G Android Development] fallentimm:
Uninstall and reinstall ti I had sesame problem that fixed it

New kernels work perfect treve! Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] liquidkernel:
Tried that, too. I'm using the donate version which uses BusyBox. Also tried the BusyBox update that TI recommend.

Still no workie :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] spinkteck:
oh ok i guess i only have 2 multitouch :( cause i only see 2 when i put like 5 fingers on it lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] fallentimm:
You sure you have a nova panel? Could be the other one
[EVO 4G Android Development] liquidkernel:
Got rid of my license key so that I can see how it tries to install the app. The app installer says that it is not able to read the package. I think I may have had a different version of BusyBox when I was using 3.2.3 and the tar program may be different.

This is strange indeed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
I'm in Delaware and we're a non-official 4g area as well, but mine works perfectly fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
tar is tar. It will open it if it can. Did you verify your backup after you made it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Krandor311:
5 point multitouch works on my Epson, I just popped in Treve's updated kernel on my 0003 Epson since I want the undervolting but can't stand the screen tearing, and I see all 5 points.

[EVO 4G Android Development] SouL Shadow:
That is probably due to the way sprint/htc had to hack in support for 2nd camera b/c android 2.1 doesn't provide that.

[EVO 4G Android Development] robtrevino:
In my desperation I called Sprint, played dumb and surprisingly they said they've had numerous calls and that it's "official" that they have a problem with 4G. But for some reason I refuse to accept it. Everyone else's phone works.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mongoose8p:
anyone having issues switching from 4g to wifi? Every time it wifi wont startup
[EVO 4G Android Development] fallentimm:
Aparently the nova kernel will give you 5 mt but no fps increase

If u flashed a radio with flashimage you broke wimax. It leaves out extra data you need.

I'm on "Equal Battery/ Performance" and I basically just banned everything except LWP, DCUpdater, Twitter and FB (I use Launcher Pro). Under 'Accounts and Sync" I turned off AutoSync and individually set FB and Twitter to not sync automatically.

Its a bug in ota. Read sprints baw thread

Edit try novatek panel mod fron post two. It use older drivers might work better
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
I just flashed that one 10 minutes ago. Same deal. If you reboot, start 4g, wifi breaks. reboot, start wifi, 4g sticks at 'obtaining IP address from Sprint'.

This is the way i rooted my bros phone early.

Rooted & unlocked nano & backed up nano

wiped data/delv

installed DC 3.2.3

installed Rom manager and used clockworkmod to install the following : in order

Installed 1.39 (radio) rebooted then...

updated prl .. reboot in recovery then..

installed 2.05 (radio ) reboot recovery then ..

wimax ( 2.56 ) and everything worked out fine

those were the steps i did

I have no 4g in nyc but after i did those steps i tried to turn 4g on and after that in adb " wimax_mtd " it showed the xml and all that so i knew it works but just dont have 4g. But before the wimax 2.56 update i didnt see no .xml file with the # behind my battery matching or showin up

Thanks using this app the front camera does indeed work that helps alot in trouble shooting not sure what fring doesnt like about DC but ill dig further
[EVO 4G Android Development] dharris007:
I've had the exact same issue, but could never figure out how to replicate it until I read your post. I've read around and tried everything, but haven't found a fix. Only thing I can do to bring back 4g is to update my profile and reboot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
Too tired to worry about it. I almost never use wifi, so as long as I remember to start 4g first, I have no problems with it. And hell a reboot takes about 45 seconds, so if I HAD to switch it's easy enough to do.

It all works fine on the stock kernel (for me)...but I really wanted the OC kernel so I could set up setCPU profiles to extend my battery. Which I've done. ;) If I want to put it all back to working I have nandroids and the original kernel to flash. I'm not all that concerned. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] SouL Shadow:
Of course they better admit there's a problem. They screwed up the update some how.

Till they get it fixed, try adjusting the timeout got 4g. Dialer --> ##data#.

Need MSL. I don't remember exact steps and can't find the post/thread I read it. Try searching the forum for 4g idle timeout fix. Something about adjusting it from 10 to 300.

Don't know what else we can do till sprint/htc figures out what they screwed up. 4g is a BIG selling point for Sprint right now. They won't let it stay broken for long.

Just thought I would share my current results. Running DC 3.2.3 with ffolkes 5.1.1 Nova Kernel. SetCPU is set to performance and overclocked to 1.15 for these results. I normally run ondemand. I'm also running JIT Sense Advanced. Also other than turning setcpu to ondemand this is what I use daily and I get no reboots and battery life has been pretty good.

I also noticed and wondered why so many post useless comments, like, "Awesome dude!", or "I'm gonna try this when I get home, too.", serves no point at all, doesn't add to the topic, no useful information was contributed to the conversation, just endless chatter, sort of like a chat room mentality.

I flashed up to DC 3.2.3 last night from Fresh to try a good ROM with the new 1.47.651.1.

I updated and had to use the remount, rm, and reboot method to get syncing to work.

I installed SetCpu 2.01 (from xda thread) had perflock disabled and set up my profiles, whereas screen off was max: 384000 and min: 245000. (Don't have my phone on me but those should be the numbers).

4G worked, everything seemed to be running amazingly.

Went into DCConfig and set the to Battery Saver mode. Only the voice and 3G radios were on.

I started up Juiceplotter last night after charging the phone to 100% last night, locked the screen and left it off the charger for the night to see where it was.

Woke up this morning and my phone was dead. When I turned it on and checked out Juiceplotter the line was a straight line at about a 60 deg angle down (phone died in around 4-5 hours after being unplugged).

Any ideas? I dunno if there may be an issue with Juiceplotter or SetCpu or what. I did not flash the new kernal for the novatec display (I assume i have a novatec. I'm on hardware 003 and when I run a 'dmesg|grep novatec' I have like 6 lines output, but 'dmesg|grep epson' returns nothing).
