wow .. i just had to recap myself on 30+ pages to get up to date ... i got the notification today via ROM manager about the update.

some helpful links:

http://geekfor.me/

known bugs

how-to-use-fresh-updater/

geekfor.me/faq/evo/

Amon_RA

ALOYSIUS EVO 3.0.3

With the vanilla locker .. looks like we can use alarm ok with this now .. i use gentle alarm .. anyone use that with success?

also with the vanilla lock .. does it also interface with the media player like the stock lock screen does? shows u song playing and u can change track?

i used 3rd prty app which changed lock screen but it did not have slide to answer .. with this lock screen .. is there a slide to answer when the device is locked?

the trble with the clockworkMod recovery .. there is trble with it just deleting sd:EXT ? or the other wipes as well...? and if its just with SD:EXT the people that are not running APPS2SD previously shouldnt have an issue correct?

if if anycase we have an issue with clockworkMod recovery .. is it just easier to go the ROM manager , flash alternate recovery? (after placing new AMON one on root of sd card) ...

[EVO 4G Android Development] S2000GTX:
mE TOO im having the same issue when i click on install it reboot into an andriod with white triangle screen an stays there i wait 15 min and than finally i took the battery out to reboot i tried over 10x i even reflash the rom an everything
[EVO 4G Android Development] kyleblakepeters:
If you guys had searched before posting you'd realize that this is an issue with the Updater booting into recovery. All you do is pull the battery, and reboot into recovery and apply the update manually. I know this isn't the first time this has been posted. Please do not clutter the boards.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Beejis:
Having issues with mms. When I try to manually attach a picture through text message it errors and closes. It also force closes when choosing the gallery through the camera (the picture box at the bottom right in camera mode). Did I mess up something or is this a common issue?
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
anyone else having issues reinstalling the htc apps from the fresh-removed-apk folder

i did this successfully in .3, but now i get:

# cp /sdcard/fresh-removed-apks/HtcFMRadio.apk /system/app

cp: cannot create '/system/app/HtcFMRadio.apk': Read-only file system

other root items are working, ad-free etc.

only things i did today were:

install amon-ra's recovery following that threads directions (via adb)

create nandroid backup in amon-ra

wipe data/cache/davik-cache in amon-ra

install fresh .53

restore missing apps via titanium

any idea what im doing wrong here, really want the fmradio and navigator back
[EVO 4G Android Development] sniggle:
My apologies, but there is nothing in the first post about this, nor is there anything in the "How to: Use Fresh Updater" page. I would think that a massive bug such as this would be mentioned in one of those two places. Therefore I do not consider this "clutter."

I was able to install the update manually in recovery and it worked fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] axlebot:
Did you replace with vanilla apps? If so, the problem is that HTCGallery is gone. I've seen something floating around somewhere about linking the Gallery3D to the camera, but I don't quite know how to do it. I'm trying to figure it out myself at the moment.
[EVO 4G Android Development] axlebot:
Issue the following commands in a command console:

adb shell

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

Then try again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Beejis:
I did, thanks for your quick response. Looks like I'm gong back to stock lockscreen then, thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tkrechel:
I'm not 100% sure but in 0.3 and earlier the /system was already set to r/w and for some reason in 0.5.3 it seems to be set as read only. Not sure what was changed but I'm thinking if you set /system to read write you should be fine

Flipz, is there any reason why /system is set to r/o in the 0.5.3 build or am I just completely wrong hehe?
[EVO 4G Android Development] axlebot:
You don't have to go back to stock lock. You can just reinstall HTCGallery.apk. It can be pulled out of the fresh 0.5.3 zip and pushed to /system/app.
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Perfect, thank you, i love this community.
[EVO 4G Android Development] twe90kid:
does gallery3d work with Handcent MMS?
[EVO 4G Android Development] fastfreddy7:
Ok, so I ve flashed it and love it, thanks Flipz, I also installed the vanilla lock screen, but I ve found that I actually like the rosie one better, so how do I uninstall the vanilla lock screen now? I m new to android, but I m slowly learning.
[EVO 4G Android Development] plmiller0905:
Do anyone know if it's ok to install the Calkulin's new rooted Sprint update? If it's ok, do I install the de'odexed version or the odexed version? And is it ok to install the wimax and radio update as well?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] dschlaefer:
I think you open Fresh Updater, go to the Existing tab, select the update you want to remove, and hit the Delete updates button. Please, someone correct me if I am wrong.
[EVO 4G Android Development] twe90kid:
-can we partition our SD for Apps2SD after we finish configuring our device with Titanium or should we reflash for it to work?

-How do we check if Apps2sd is working? I did the adb thing but don't understand how to check if it's working

-Does gallery3d work with Handcent MMS?

bump these two for answers. THANKS guys!
[EVO 4G Android Development] fastfreddy7:
No, I thought that would be the way to do it as well, but is nothing in the existing tab, I think thats only for updates that have yet to be installed. Side note, flipz, any idea when the nex one will come out with the HTC update integrated? Thanks again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 1wingangel:
Okay, so I've been running fresh 0.3 with JIT enabled for about 5 hours or so(w/ setcpu and estaskiller), and I must say,my battery life has been phenomenal! 40% in 5 hours w/ HEAVY usage. The speed is awesome!! Almost 10 MFLOPS!! I really don't see the need to install anotherROM (although I know I will) :) . What else could I possibly need? I LOVE THIS PHONE!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Young_e:
+1 i would like to try the update as well...does anybody know the answer??
[EVO 4G Android Development] 1wingangel:
Only one way to find out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Young_e:
dont want to risk losing root....can someone confirm ???
[EVO 4G Android Development] lath19:
Everything flashed and booted up perfectly. I did get an error while doing a wipe in recovery and was told to wipe the sd ext with adb. Seeing that somebody else ignored the error and got away with it I tried the same thing. Fortunately for me it worked (I imagine I had nothing to wipe?).

Thanks Fresh! Donation coming your way shortly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] plmiller0905:
Same here. I'm just wondering if someone that was or is running Fresh 0.5.3 was able to flash the new update, wimax and radio update and if they were successful.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jabbawalkee:
Actually, that is incorrect. This is very simple but what you do is: open Fresh Updater, go to Themes then go to HTC Lock Screen and apply it!
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougdascenzo:
I would like to chime in on this. i had the same problem. However, I did NOT have to reboot into recovery manually. All I had to do was to not let the updater prompt auto boot me into recovery, then use Rom Manager to manually flash a rom from sd and that rebooted and installed just fine.

Also, for those switching recoveries, if you did not use an ext partition for apps2sd prior to this, this step is not needed. I have never done that, so I just dl'd the rom through Rom Manager, told Rom Manager to backup/wipe and install, and everything went exactly as planned. One reboot during the splash screen and then off an running.

Oh and thanks a lot for the ROM update. My battery life had got terrible the past few days and I was pretty certain it was one of the battery apps I was running ironically, so I just did a complete wipe and redownloaded apps this time and battery life seems solid again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougdascenzo:
Yeah, if you never setup that ext partition, it will say it is not found, which makes perfect sense and should not cause any problems. Now if you had setup that partition and it said that, that I would be concerned about. Unless of course the install worked, then its probably all good.
[EVO 4G Android Development] buck1623:
And if that doesn't work, move the file out of the download folder onto the root of the sd card, reboot in recovery mode and flash the zip.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lzlaxhacker:
Just flashed this from Fresh .03. Followed directions and everything is flawless and fast as hell. Excellent work flipz!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] taziz23:
Is the voice button on the keyboard not working for anyone else?
[EVO 4G Android Development] racerx123:
is anyone else having trouble with their 3g radio with this? I'm still running the 1.39.00.05.31 radio. If the phone idles, the 3g radio ends up turning off, and I have to manually turn it back on. I've never had to ever do this before, so I would assume it's a bit odd.

I am in an area where I get full bars (nor am i actively moving).
[EVO 4G Android Development] leeh41:
it was removed. look for the apk folder on your sd card to reinstall
[EVO 4G Android Development] taziz23:
Thank you!
[EVO 4G Android Development] torremitsu:
Wow did you actually answer his question without totally flaming him??? There is hope for this community after all. I agree that the search function is a great tool but so is patience and kindness.

Flipz, the rom is running like a champ. Everything is smooth and fast. Im bouncing between this and Ava's Evolution. Great job mate.
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
Probably a question for the Calkulin thread but, I flashed the odexed version and did not lose root. Meaning I could still flash roms, perform backups/restore using Amon_Ra recovery. I couldnt, however, adb remount. Permision denied. I restored my nandroid backup of Fresh rom and all root function/adb is back.
[EVO 4G Android Development] herzzreh:
Something is chewing through battery after installing this ROM. I still suspect it's the latest radio that flip posted, but who knows? I've never had it drop 10% in the first 30 minutes of unplugging... Looks like something is keeping it awake - 55min awake time with 1hr05min being unplugged. I did not use my phone that much.

[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
Just woke up. I'm currently reading through the posts from last night. I just wanted to thank those who have helped out and answered questions for others. Regarding slow 3g and people asking about radios. First off I didn't post any new radio... the one I link to is the same one that has been linked to since our very first OTA update. That one should still work perfectly fine as this rom is still based on 1.32.651.6. Regarding 3g being slow... let's not forget that Sprint just released an OTA update for hundreds of thousands of Evo users that AREN'T rooted and are legitimately getting updates. lol. This is going to slow the network down. Nothing has been modified in this rom that would affect the 3g speed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
Just go in to Fresh Updater and go back to themes and there is actually one called HTC Lock Screen that will put HTC's lock screen back on there for you.

That will actually only delete that update off of your sdcard, it doesn't remove the update itself from the phone.

Added to the FAQ: http://geekfor.me/faq/faq-fresh-evo/
[EVO 4G Android Development] IcOpRo:
Hey flip, or anyone that can help, first of I love the Rom, just like when I had it on my hero. Now I just installed this Rom and I don't have voice search capabilities, I can do voice dial, but I cant voice search or voice text also, no matter how much I press the little microphone icon on the keyboard it just won't start, thanks for your replies ......
[EVO 4G Android Development] paulg1981:
It has been removed and you may install it again from the fresh-removed folder on your sdcard.......plz search
[EVO 4G Android Development] nkawal:
please read teh first post..you have to reinstall the voice search apk thats located on the sdcard in the fresh removed apps folder.
[EVO 4G Android Development] carguy4471:
This was just answered in the last couple pages. I have not personally installed it back on, but I did just verify that it is on your SD card. Use ES file explorer, go into /sdcard/fresh-removed-apks/ and find VoiceSearch.apk. Just click on the file and you can install it back on.

TO ANYONE WHOSE FRESH UPDATER ISN'T REBOOTING IN TO RECOVERY PROPERLY:

If you are flashing an update in Fresh Updater and it's rebooting you in to a screen with a triangle and exclamation point instead of actually rebooting in to recovery then please answer these questions for me. Thanks!

What version of recovery are you using? (boot in to recovery however you normally do that and then look at the bottom and tell me what it says)

What process do you normally follow to get in to recovery?

And most important:

With your phone booted up like normal and plugged in to your computer, open a command prompt and do:

adb shell reboot recovery

And tell me if it reboots you in to recovery (and did the version number change from your "normal" process of getting in to recovery?) or does it boot you in to the same screen with the triangle?

Answering these questions will help me figure out where your problem is! Fresh Updater uses the standard "reboot recovery" to get in to recovery which is a standard across every Android device. The STOCK recovery is the triangle and exclamation point, so that's indicating that you don't have a custom recovery installed. Please answer the questions and try the reboot recovery command and let me know what happens. Thanks!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Valharick:
I went from .3 to .5.3 last night with no apparent issues. However when I started downloading mp3's from the amazon app, I started getting "SD Card is full or not present".

Did I create a problem reinstalling it from the removed apps folder?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bhagiratha:
With all the issues I was having, and not being able to find any solutions, I decided to revert back to the stock HTC ROM very late last night.

Nonetheless, my evo is up and running and was able to do all my updates.

all is well ... haven't experience any problems. Phone feels very snappy ...

cheers.

p.s I think I will hold off putting any custom ROMs on until Froyo get out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejittles:
Herzzreh, I have two EVO's and one is chewing through the battery and the other lasts for a long time. See my post here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=7010352&posted=1#post7010352

It looks like it could be a sync issue with an exchange server, facebook, etc.
[EVO 4G Android Development] herzzreh:
That's what I thought, but I don't have any of those set-up besides gmail and calendar.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejittles:
Have you done a full root on the phone? As in, did you flash the engineering release on there and were you successfully able to mount the NAND as read/write? It sounds like you haven't finished rooting the phone.

*EDIT*

I think that gmail uses the same API protocol (sorry I'm exhausted. Didn't sleep well last night) as exchange to sync. This is how they're able to sync google contacts on the iPhone. I could be totally wrong but if it is an issue with a sync-loop on exchange then its possible the same condition is occurring with gmail too. Both of my phones sync w/ gmail, exchange, and facebook and only one is exhibiting this issue, so who knows? If you have system panel I'd definitely keep an eye on android.process.acore and see if its what is sucking up all your juice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 1wingangel:
just use unrevoked2. It puts clockworkmod rec. on it for you. I know its a cheap way out but........................
[EVO 4G Android Development] IcOpRo:
Oh, wow thanks I guess I must of skipped that page, just got, it thanks a lot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] shad0w77:
Hey flipz. I have the problem w/ the updater. I haven't tried RA recovery yet because I don't mind the little extra step of rebooting into recovery manually.

I am using ClockworkMod Recovery v2.0.1.3. Usually, I hold the volumn down and power on, go to recovery and hit the power button.

When I use the adb command you mentiod, it boots to ClockworkMod Recovery v2.0.1.3. Same result either way..... hope this helps your debugging a bit.
[EVO 4G Android Development] puertoblack2003:
update went smooth i even incorporated the droid x multi touch key board.Now for the froyo :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sprockethead:
Thanks for the reply. As far as I can tell, my phone is fully rooted. Meaning, I put PC36IMG.zip on there and flashed the mtd-eng.img. I installed FRESH 0.3 with no problem after doing a nand backup. That means I'm rooted, right?

The only thing I can't do is flash recovery. And that's when it dawned on my feeble memory that I can't remember if I did this step before. Do I need to go back to stock ROM to do this? I don't think so, because the os hasn't booted at that point yet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sprockethead:
No unrevoked2, but please explain further. Is clockworkmod recovery a requirement here? I have that on my sd card, renamed as update.zip. Is there anything else I need to with the clockwork mod file in order to flash into recovery?
[EVO 4G Android Development] herzzreh:
That process doesn't even show up in system panel. I'm just hoping that the battery meter is simply not calibrated just yet. I reset it yesterday using cyangen's (sp?) instructions...
[EVO 4G Android Development] lazyboy0172:
Same exact thing here. I am able to boot into recovery from Rom Manager as well. I am still able to install zips from fresh updater, i just have to download from fresh and manually install from recovery to avoid the blasted stock recovery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mikeallison:
Fresh Updater doesn't seem to work with the latest Clockwork Mod. Enable the RA recovery in ROM Manager first and it will work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] zunteck:
Now this is what im talking about a smooth nice looking rom.....great job..
[EVO 4G Android Development] mikevillarroel:
Did you try this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=702214 ? You won't need the update.zip
[EVO 4G Android Development] shad0w77:
i think we got it. flipz already explained this to us and I am sure it's in the fresh updater how to/faq. that was why I said I haven't tried the RA recovery because I am okay with the manual reboot and install.... eventhough I know RA will probably work. And I also, correct me if I am wrong, believe flipz is looking to make it work w/ both recoveries.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DraginMagik:
regarding the OTA updates from 6/29/10

I was running Fresh .3 w/ AmonRA 1.7 ... full root + nand

a friend of mine has a stock evo and praised the latest OTA update. so i grabbed Damaged 3.2.2 (and fresh .53 just in case). i did a 'data wipe/factory reset', cleared cache and dalvik cache. installed Dmgd322 and the updates from http:/ /xdaforums.com/showthread.php? t=713770. 4g still a bit flaky after a couple reboots and reflashing of the wimax and radio using the signed zips from TheMarkness on post #98. i had one or two random reboots. but giving the flashing and such, figured it may have been related and didn't really notice the random reboots until trying to using TitaniumBackup to restore the bulk of my apps. i was unable to get more than 40 apps reinstalled due to unrequested reboots.

after several random reboots, i gave up. went into recovery..did a full wipe (data, cache, dalvik)...installed Fresh .53. all is working perfectly. battery seems to have a postive change. feels a bit snappier.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejittles:
Sprocket: If you can boot the phone into android then get onto your windows machine and do the following via adb:

*EDIT*

adb shell

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

*/EDIT*

If that works your phone is rooted.

Also, if you followed all of the rooting instructions you were supposed to do something like:

/data/flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

That is the command that actually flashes the recovery image onto your phone, if I understand what is going on correctly.

Ahh then you don't have the same problem. I hope that it is just the battery meter. Keep us posted and let us know if you're able to figure something out. Good luck.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Stickboy46:
Ok i have a couple odd issues here. First one has only happened once. I booted up the phone and it had reverted back to a state from like 2 weeks ago. All the icons were moved, the text messages stopped after 6/17, it was kinda of weird. It hasnt happened since then so i dont know on that

2nd. My gmail isnt marking things as read properly. Whenever i get an email and i read it, it will grey it out on the phone. But it wont mark it as read on the server. So when i get the next message it will still have that message in the unread count. Like i just got an email and it said "new message xxxxxxx@gmail.com(14)" So its saying i have 14 unread messages but there is only 1 new message unread on my phone. As each one comes in, it increases the count. If i go on to the website, all the messages i read on my phone are still marked as unread???

-Does gallery3d work with Handcent MMS?

[EVO 4G Android Development] Sprockethead:
Well - that did not work... So I guess my phone was never "fully" rooted after all. Which might explain why I thought that Rom Manager never worked the way it was supposed to. :rolleyes:

I'm going to return the phone to the factory state and RUU and everything, and start over again. Hopefully it will work this time.

I'm praying. In three hours, I have ~35% left. Normally, I'm in high 70s by now.

What's worse, looking through system panel, battery usage and battery status in *#*#4636*#*#, I don't see anything out of the ordinary.

Loving Fresh and the most recent update is awesome, thanks for all your work Flipz!

I love the Vanilla Lock but it not playing nice with alarms means that I really can't use it :(

Any work going into making Vanilla Lock and Alarm Clock work together?
[EVO 4G Android Development] axlebot:
Use the vanilla clock. If you use world clock, it doesn't work. If you use the vanilla clock that comes with several of the lock screen updates, you can set alarms in that and they'll work just fine. That's how I do my morning alarms.
