Ya know... I hate to sound like a jerk, but welcome to my life. :( I am ALWAYS happy to help people that are having problems. That's what I'm here for. But answering the same questions over and over when they're already in the release notes prevents me from ever seeing any of the real problems.

I'm working on waking up. Lol. When I get on the computer ill post instructions on how to grab a debug log for those getting boot loops so that we can see why. Fact is its impossible that it works for one person and not another.
[EVO 4G Android Development] peacein0000:
I did what some of you said and used Amon's recovery by flashing it in ROM manager, but when I reboot into recovery it says Clockwerk recovery still

Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nkawal:
samething i said.......people just read the first post and the change log.
[EVO 4G Android Development] carguy4471:
I agree with the "read the release notes" mantra, and will add, I've been running 0.5.3 all day with zero trouble. From what I can gather, you're a busy guy and the community owes you a debt of gratitude. We are blessed to have developers such as yourself, Toast, and others. Great work!!

Here is what I did got into recovery mode wiped data/factory twice then dalvik twice then flash from zip the rom. And like I said it just keeps rebooting
[EVO 4G Android Development] chino0131:
READ THE FIRST PAGE! That said, if you're reading this then ill help you skip a step. 1) open ES File Explorer. 2)Open "Fresh Removed APK's. 3) press on the one(s) you want and then hit install.....bam there you have it. Next time look thru the original post a few times. The OP usually gives any helpful tips, especially Flipz.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nkawal:
FROM THE FIRST POST....wipe all the necessary sections.

Do a data wipe! This version 100% requires one, even if you are coming from Fresh Evo 0.x. This should however be the last wipe required! It has also been reported that Clockwork Recovery is not wiping sd:ext properly. So if you do a data wipe (data, dalvik, cache, and sd:ext) and are still getting FC's or boot loops then you need to flash Amon's recovery and use it instead.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Taubin:
I hope I'm not one of those "idiots", as I did read the entire post, and have posted exactly what I did, which is exactly what the notes say. I've not had this issue before, and I've been running Flipz roms since the early Hero roms.

I know I don't have a high post count, but, that's because I don't post usually, unless I have an issue I can't figure out. In this case, I can't figure out why my phone is in a constant boot loop after going through the entire wipe, update to Amon's, wipe the cache, devlik, ext, and everything else. It may be a root issue or something, so when I have a chance, I'll go back through the entire root process again....

For you people who just refuse to read and keep up with the thread, there is also a big ass button in the top right that says "search this thread." If you don't want to read through 161 pages of posts, I can understand that... But doing a search will greatly narrow down what you have to wade through. Some of these questions (boot loop, vanilla lock screen flashing, etc) have been answered at least ten times by different users in this thread. /rant

Thanks Flipz! As usual, your rom kicks ass, and I sincerely appreciate what you do for us. I get paid on the 1st, I'll be putting some money in your account. It's the least I can do for all that you do for us. Again, I can't thank you enough!!

[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
IF YOU ARE BOOT LOOPING:

Please answer these questions, and then capture a debug log.

What rom were you running before this?

What recovery are you using?

What steps did you take to download and flash this rom?

Before getting this rom did you get the OTA update from Sprint or from one of the update.zips on this site?

Before getting this rom did you apply one of the new radio imgs or wimax imgs from the OTA?

Did you wipe data, dalvik, cache, and sd:ext?

To get a debug log (in windows) :

Plug your phone up to your computer, open a command prompt and do "adb devices" to make sure your computer sees your phone. If it doesn't then this tutorial isn't for you and you need to get back to the basics on using adb.

Type: adb logcat V > c:\pick\a\folder\log.txt

Let it run through 2 or 3 boot loops. Then press control+c to stop capturing the log.

Open the log.txt that you just created and go to pastebin.com and paste it up. Then provide me the link to your pastebin and I'll review it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ewells38:
I have a quick question. Does anyone else notice that when using the vanilla lock. when you press the "menu" button, it unlocks the phone

Only sliding the vanilla lock should unlock the phone correct?
[EVO 4G Android Development] twe90kid:
Hope someone know how to fix the vanilla lockscreen unlocking with menu softkey issue. Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] twe90kid:
yup, i posted about this couple pages back but no one got info on how to fix
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
Wrong. The default stock vanilla lock unlocks by using the menu button. This is how it's always been. On the Hero I made a modified version that disables that. I will make a version for the Evo that has it disabled... but not until people start using the search button to see if it was asked already.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Taubin:
1. What rom were you running before this? Fresh Evo 0.3

2. What recovery are you using? Amon's linked from your blog post

3. What steps did you take to download and flash this rom? Downloaded the rom from the donator link, copied it to SD, swapped the recovery to Amon's using the steps outlined in the root and root part 2 directions, did a full wipe of data/factory reset, davlik, cache, and sd:ext using recovery, verified it performed the wipes on all of the above. Ran an update of the rom using the Amon recovery. Looped the fresh screen.

4. Before getting this rom did you get the OTA update from Sprint or from one of the update.zips on this site? No

5. Before getting this rom did you apply one of the new radio imgs or wimax imgs from the OTA? No

6. Did you wipe data, dalvik, cache, and sd:ext? Yes

[EVO 4G Android Development] ewells38:
Hey flipz, I wasn't suggesting it was a bug (I wouldn't really know as I am coming from Windows Mobile & thus new to Android).

I just noticed that when using the HTC lock screen, this does not happen. I didn't know that this was a normal feature on the Hero and/or how it's always been. My question was purely out of curiousity :o

I certianly meant no harm :D.

But love your work, I have and will continue to donate :cool:

Looking forward to what you have cooking up next :D

There are a handful of non-stock applications in there. So your sd:ext or data definitely did not wipe properly. Try going in and re-partitioning your sdcard. 0/0/Remaining if you want apps2sd disabled or 32/1024/Remaining if you want it enabled.

As flip posted earlier, it's more of a feature than an issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] seebeexee:
Seriously folks, let's not bite the hand that feeds us. I totally agree with flip not wanting to "reward" the masses that refuse to read before they ask.

Unfortunately, those of us that DO read and search are now having to pay for everyone else's laziness: both by having to scan through pages and pages of questions and answers that are discussed in the original post (or somewhere else in the thread), and now by having to wait for certain software updates as a result. (I can't blame you flip for wanting to try and teach the non-searchers a lesson.)

I came from version 0.3 earlier today and after flashing, I got a boot loop. Big deal, right? That problem has since been solved and all I had to do to find the solution was: READ. It was as simple as that.

I've been registered on this forum for almost 3 years and this is only my 9th post because I spend all my time reading and searching (and I'm sure there are many others out there just like me). That big-ass search button is MUCH more helpful than it's being given credit for. /rant

On a different note: thanks a million, flip, for this awesome ROM. It is even faster and better on battery life than its previous version. My Evo is very happy on Fresh!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Taubin:
Thanks Flipz, I re-partitioned and am trying again right now. I thought for sure it said it had wiped properly
[EVO 4G Android Development] apollooff320:
thank god my phone isn't looping like it was before and I can actually use this Rom. I had to go and use DC's ROM after using a Fresh Rom since I had my HTC Hero. Both Roms are good but I like to stick with the rom I always been using.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ewells38:
Just for the record, I am certainly a searcher and do use the

As previously noted flipz. I appreciate your great work. My EVO is running GREAT. I am and will continue to be a donator/supporter and look forward to your next great creation..

My appologies to all for my inquiry :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
I don't want people to feel bad for asking questions. As I mentioned I love providing good "customer service." I think it's something that sets me apart from some others.

Wake Lock issues

For some reason, on the last 3 versions of this ROM, I have been having issues with the Calendar holding a lot of wake lock time. Almost 96% of time since boot. What can I do to fix this? I have tried disabling it in sync, turning off background data, and have removed all calendar based widgets from the screens. Nothing seems to make a dent in the amount of wake time my phone has.

I'm really sorry if this has been posted about or asked already- but since the update I seem to be having problems with Launcher Pro Beta. Whenever I press the home button I get directed straight back to Rosie instead of Launcher, which never happened in 0.3. However, LPB also just updated recently and added (I think) several new features so I don't know if it's an issue with Fresh or with LPB itself. Any input is appreciated. Thanks :D

Also where do I go/how much is a good number to donate? I definitely want to help this project along. There seems to be a few different donate locations on geekfor.me so I want to make sure.

Yes, it has been very stable for me as well. But you need to install it by unzipping to the sdk tools dirctory and either doing the manual adb commands or run the script.

Someone had said it could be flashed as the zip alone, but that is not true.

It increased my Linpack score from 6.7 to over 9.2 MFLOPs. Nice.

Registered 2 years and only 9 posts! :eek: Oh wait ... I can't talk, 2 years and , um, 1 post now :D

But very good point, that counts for here and any other forum. Usually the search functions work very well, both for a thread and site-wide.

Extra Search Tip: For the forums I visit that for whatever reason don't have very good results, then a google search such as "site:xdaforums.com boot loop fresh evo" usually does the trick. Obviously replace the domain name with the site you want to search and follow it with your search terms, but I have found that to be helpful many times. (Especially with search terms that are 3 letters, since some forums don't index words 3 characters and under.)

And thanks for the excellent ROM flipz :)

1.What rom were you running before this? Fresh EVO0.3

2.What recovery are you using? clockworkmod2.0.1.3

3.What steps did you take to download and flash this rom? Downloaded ROM to PC, put in root of SD Card and used Clkwrk recovery to install from sd, no backup but wipe... Loop Loop Loop

4.Before getting this rom did you get the OTA update from Sprint or from one of the update.zips on this site? No

5.Before getting this rom did you apply one of the new radio imgs or wimax imgs from the OTA? only the EVO-1.39.00.05.31-radio-signed

6.Did you wipe data, dalvik, cache, and sd:ext? only what the Clkwrk recovery did...

After I got loop I tried to wipe the above... still looping:cool:

Also have not been able to get the amon's recovery to install can see it on the sdcard but this command: flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-evo-v1.7.0.1.img comes back no file found

even when i use the "ls /sdcard/recovery*" it say's the file is there but won't flash amon's file. so I'm dead in the water...

My only problem is that I tried out Fresh Updater and downloaded Vanilla lock + clock and when I went to install it, it asked for permission and then rebooted to the android + white triangle screen and just sat there.
