[EVO 4G Android Development] chuckhriczko:
Note: Please look at changelog at bottom of post. I also posted a known bug list for this version at the bottom. Please read this.

Name: SupererSonic

Description:

Well my first Evo rom is done. It’s nothing special but it has some things none of the other roms out right now have. Basically the idea is that this is a completely working rom with no issues that I have seen (please comment if this is not the case) with some added features. One thing to also note is that I also created update zip files for the removed apps so if I removed something that you want you can easily just download the update and flash it.

Installation Instructions:

Download superersonic-signed.zip at the bottom of these instructions and copy it to the root of your sd card

Boot into recovery. Currently this is only possible by using the evo-recovery scripts created by Toast. If you don’t know what I’m talking about check out my rooting post

Perform a nandroid backup of your device

Perform a full wipe of your device (absolutely necessary. Issues will arise if this is not done)

Select flash zip and flash superersonic-signed.zip and reboot when it’s finished.

Bugs:

Apps2SD seems to be working fine however the apps I included (Rom Manager, Wifi tether, etc) don't seem to be showing after a flash. I assume this has something to do with apps2sd but am not sure. I am working on this.

Apps2SD Note:

To use apps2sd you must have an ext partition on your sd card. If you don't already just back up all your data (it will be erased), boot into recovery, go to the partition option and partition your card there. This method is from DarkTremor (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=670087) so it also supports swap if you have a swap partition. After you partition your sd card apps2sd will work automatically.
