Re: (Rom) EVOlutionV8-Froyo

The market is okay. Apparently something must be wrong with the spare parts app cause its the only one that hangs in download loop..

SpeedX 3D still fails to install. Downloads fine, but when installing it ends with "Installation Unsuccessful." Same as V7

A nice side affect of this rom for me: using Stock rom, the game Jewellust (full version) would stop playing sound after 2 minutes. The sound works perfectly in this Rom :) And with the Market fix, it finally showed up so I could download it! :)

As noted, LED indicator still burns red into my eyes after an unplug.

This is a known issue. There disbanded fix located in the thread but you can't be a noob and apply it or you might mess your phone up, perks of being a DEV rom.

i just had a quick question. does sprint tv and sprint navigation work on this rom if i installed the apk's from fresh evo 2.1
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
They both work (though I haven't tried navigation) but why the hell would you want sprint navigation when Google maps and navigation is a million times better? When I had to run 2.1, sprint navigation was the very 1st thing ripped from my phone, total waste of space with Google maps installed. Google navigation even changes color at night, lol.

[EVO 4G Android Development] owleyes:
I just flalshed this to my phone, and all I can say is WOW!

I am setting this up right now to run as my daily driver. I'll keep my fresh rom on nandroid for when I need a camera, but this is just too good to pass up.

I was getting about 38 mflops with linpack tests. I was getting 7 before I flashed this. The difference is incredible. The only thing wrong I have found is my LED charging light will not turn off now once i unplug the phone from charging. If i reboot the phone it goes away, but as soon as I plug it back in it won't turn off.

I wish i was half as smart as you all so I could contribute to this. I was reading android development site last night and it all went right over my head lol. I told my wife I am going to have to start taking some night classes so I can learn some of this lol. Please keep up the good work. You all are amazing and making my first venture into phone modification a lot of fun.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
Download Covedesign Dev from the market. Just launch the app and choose the led light(usually the red one) select it then unselect it and led light is off with no reboot :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] plmiller0905:
How's battery life on Froyo compared to the other roms?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jankyboy:
I wiped and reflashed again, but the auto brightness is still too dim. Other than that, I found the LED to shut off after reboot and the phone appears quite snappy.
[EVO 4G Android Development] owleyes:
I just installed it....and now am stuck on a black screen. The phone is not frozen because I can bring up the last app list and such, but I can not get back to even my home screen.

ok so I made it back to my home screen by opening a search with the magnifier key, but that app still just shows me a black screen.

ok update 2 lol: when i re-opened the app it seems to be working now, but none of the option cut the LED off.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
yeah its the app..i think that happened to me once..

it works for me..i mean you have to make sure you're doing the right one..normally the Red Light is on so I have to first put a check on it..wait for it..then click it again to remove the check mark and my light goes off..maybe you need to use Green Light..

i really want to try this rom out, but will wait for the camera fix (i know it requires the source)

i've had froyo on my nexus and it's so much better than 2.1 and i just don't like sense; maybe i'll flash it and use it for few days
[EVO 4G Android Development] owleyes:
I actually had the same issue. I thought it was me lol. To be fair though, it wouldn't let me add facebook even when using a sense 2.1 build. It only had the facebook for sense synced and that was all it would allow.
[EVO 4G Android Development] looneylu:
yeah, but that is because of the sense ui... my friends nexus syncs just fine, and so does a buddy of mine who I flashed 2.1 to his g1

Also, froyo let me add twitter to account and sync no problem
[EVO 4G Android Development] johnsongrantr:
Re: (Rom) EVOlutionV8-Froyo

Been using v8 all day, nice work on market fix.

No issue with apps installing for me, did complete wipe after upgrading from v7

Never got facebook sync to work on aosp roms, might be a problem with the facebook app. Might need to be put in system/app possibly, who knows???

did you catch wind of update to froyo test for nexus one that came out last week, fr75 or some jazz?

Oh and nice work on the added bits in the sense clock clone. I prefer astro file managet over es but thats just me, if swype is free after beta strongly reccomend adding that, it really is the ultimate touch keyboard. If you haven't given it a shot its a must!

Does 4G work with the/this 2.2 ROM? What about WiFi tether? I can live without the cameras... 3G would probably be okay too if 4G doesn't work... but I gotta have my WiFi tethering to make the switch.

: post #72 says tether works. Still curious about 4G but from what I see in post #463 it looks like it's a no go.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jspielberg:
Love the new build. Tried V7 last night and I now testing V8 image. My only complaint is that the roaming icon is constantly showing (which is a little annoying - V7 didn't have this). Looking at the revision history, it seems that Roaming was fixed V7, but then V8 is based on V5.

So far, no other problems. I have a 2.1 nandroid backup if I am going to be using the camera.

Is this roaming to be expected, or is there a simple fix?

FIXED:

Found the solution on Page 8 post 73

If you forward to gv it wont touch your sprint vm and then that will stop the sms from sprint

Log into google.com/voice and assure everything is set correctly in settings, I have sms not forwarded to my phone, caller id come to me as the caller rather than my gv number, come up as my gv to other callers. Turn off email and sms notifications of new gv voicemails. And some other common sense stuff. I can elaborate if you want.

The Changelog said led was fixed, but I'm still experiencing led stays on after I unplug from the power source in v8. It only turns off when interrupted by an email/text notification. Also Apps2SD is broken as when I tried to move apps to SD I got a Failed moving error. Overall, the rom performace is very very stable.

I can confirm that applications, which I have seen as missing on V7 (Documents ToGo and Jewellust) are not there in the market.

I like this ROM so much that I would consider buying a different headset. Could somebody tell me it is working for you with stereo media and phone calls over bluetooth? What headset are you using?

im also testing a 30 cap fix but theres not much we can do w/o kernel source.

but anyways im going to do some more testing and ill release this as soon as i get some little things working better.

and as for BT. im still working on it. but the problem is that we cant select to pair. im assuming pressing the trackball would be yes for pairing BT on froyo nexus.
