im about to throw an update that fixes all the little bugs.

now with protected apps. i can get alot of them to show. but some still wont. so idk what to tell you all. just back up w/e protected apps you have with titanium backup. but anyways V7 will fix all lighting issues. videos will play a million times better, fixed launcher lag, fixed roaming, fixed 95% of protected apps. took out the stupid apps. now i may have fixed other BT issues but i never got to test.

anything else?
[EVO 4G Android Development] phrac:
Hi guys, new to Android and have been lurking at XDA for sometime, but this is my first post.

Great work on porting Froyo over. I've flashed this and am testing it out and everything seems to work fine (except for the things noted in the OP's thread).

One thing I have noticed is the battery indicator in the status bar is stuck showing "80" (charge remaining?) and doesn't ever change.

Also, tried the chrometophone thing and it would never register the device. Also, is there anyway to turn off 4G? (its not available in my area.)

Not nitpicking, just pointing out a few things I've noticed. Keep up the good work!

EDIT: Just noticed that the battery indicator only goes in 10% increments, so thats why I thought it wasn't updating.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mdaddy:
Any luck with the cameras? I pm'd you a link to the camera dev guide.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
the haptic and typing vibration back to normal please, please, please.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
This documentation is intended for the 3rd party developers who want to develop applications for this device

so it cant help much. the only thing i did see was pulling the preview image. as for right now though, im going to release this which has all the fixes in it. and we can look more into cameras this week.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mdaddy:
Makes sense, thanks again for all your work on this!
[EVO 4G Android Development] phinnaeus:
No hurry, this is getting me to carry my DSLR around more and learn to take real pictures :P
[EVO 4G Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
yes battery if weird. i like it though.

chrometophone is beta.

4G is always off. but works. although there are some weird things with it being on.

Updated first post everyone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] spaum:
Can I install over V6, or do I have to wipe?
[EVO 4G Android Development] cosmocanyon:
I like the battery thing too. Thought i was the only one.

I'm a switcher from WebOS so i'm sorta new to android but not so new to development... You mind if I contribute updates to this or rather me start my own ROM?

- Evan
[EVO 4G Android Development] raidzx:
I flashed over .6, seems to run fine, still playing with it though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] phinnaeus:
MOAR FROYO ROMs == MOAR BETTAR

edit: Why did you switch from webOS? I have heard great things about it, and I would be on it if it weren't for the Evo. Oh, did I just answer my own question?
[EVO 4G Android Development] cosmocanyon:
Seems pretty safe to flash over top of old as stated in OP. As always, you mileage may vary, and if you run into weirdness, wipe and flash again.

- Evan

UPDATE: I just wiped. Definite weirdness here.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cosmocanyon:
Eh, I was a fanboy until my 4th swap Pre failed. Hardware was terrible. Now, I switch to the EVO and my display starts peeling up... oh god, here we go again.

Seriously though, as a developer, I work for apple so I can't hack that. I was working on WebOS, super duper awesome, but HP's "we're going to put it on printers and not focus on smartphones" kinda drove me away. Google = win.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Dsmithjr:
Question: I'm running this ROM with it set to back up my apps and setting in my Google account. Does Google even have this set up right now, or is checking that box not really doing anything? I've looked all over my Google account and I don't any of this Android info saved there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thgood:
I enabled that, updated from v5 to v7 and got a notification that 45 applications restored automatically. I am using a google apps account.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Dsmithjr:
Sweet. Then I'll be leaving it checked. Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] cosmocanyon:
Confirmed broken/still broken:

- Mono Bluetooth (Plantronics Voyager Pro) - Working on a dirty hack, should have something maybe maybe tonight?

- Market - Follow instructions for previous fix - confirmed still works.

- Facebook Sync - Not very high on my priority list, maybe after bluetooth.

Will update as I find more.

- Evan
[EVO 4G Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
Wow weird. The build props are identical.
[EVO 4G Android Development] KERKEDAGAIN:
any way to make it always on? don't really care about toggling..
[EVO 4G Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
Yes but its gonna take some more work on froyo like adding icons and adding support for 4g connection.
[EVO 4G Android Development] KERKEDAGAIN:
ah, ok..didn't know if it was just a switch needing to be flipped. Look forward to it, whenever y'get to it. BOSS JOB thus far!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] cosmocanyon:
I didn't pull the build.prop out before I overwrote it, but AFAIK, on first run build.prop gets auto conf'd by some shell script. I'll look tonight and see if I can track it down so we can rewrite it appropriately.

- Evan
[EVO 4G Android Development] crackerstyle:
If you can get BT headsets running that would rock. It's the one main thing I can't do with this ROM that I really would like. I just flashed v7 hoping I could use my BT headset for calls and still nothing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
somebody created a toggle for the 4g. its somewhere in the evo forums.

edit: here it is
[EVO 4G Android Development] cosmocanyon:
It might be a couple days. I'll get the fix but then I have to spin everything off into a ROM. Av hasn't given me permission to update his ROM so I have to pull toast's and start from scratch.

- Evan
[EVO 4G Android Development] jabbawalkee:
There is now a 4G toggle in the market
[EVO 4G Android Development] cosmocanyon:
Guys 4g *IS NOT* going to work until HTC releases source. Just 100% impossible.

The drivers are there, but HTC had to add support for 4g networks to the android core inorder for the OS to know what to do with it. That support won't be there until either HTC or Google adds it. We can't do it for them unless HTC drops source.

Just 100% impossible. We've given froyo the drivers it needs to access the hardware, but froyo doesn't even try to initialize it. The os has 0% awareness such a thing even exists.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sm_x:
can any1 tell me how to get back the iphone like selection found on the retail?
[EVO 4G Android Development] zeeyo987:
sense

any idea when we might see sense being built into this rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] crackerstyle:
Is flash built into v7? I can't find it on the app market. I could on v6.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
omg people sense will not be in this rom...you want sense wait for HTC to release 2.2..
[EVO 4G Android Development] berkmanmd:
this wont work until 4g support is built into 2.2
[EVO 4G Android Development] phinnaeus:
Well HTC might start working on 2.2 in 6-10 months so about a year after that?

But if you want your ROMs slow and bloated, you could just stick with stock 2.1.

Note: please don't take this as a personal attack. I'm really a nice guy until you bring up Sense.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
hmm im going to back my flash .apk up just in case.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
yeah ill admit i thought sense was all that and a bag of chips till i loaded this ROM..I CANT believe all the bloat HTC and Sprint puts in..What this download is only like 66mb and all the sense ones are like 145mb+

I've been using this for a few days now and still havent had the desire to load any other ROM. Besides if I need the camera I'll just backup and flash another ROM in like 5min and be done with it haha
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
i feel the same way. actually i have a nandroid back up of 2.1 set up the exact way i want it. if i need camera i will just nandroid restore and be good to go.
[EVO 4G Android Development] crackerstyle:
Good call. I still have my nandroid backup of my v6 install. I can restore back into that and use titanium backup to back the app up.

Thanks for stimulating that thought process :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
heck if you're fully rooted install root explorer and pull the .apks right from the explorer inside android :)

much easier.
[EVO 4G Android Development] blehzz:
can someone post the flash apk here?
[EVO 4G Android Development] infamousjax:
how's the battery on this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
cosmocanyon or ava do you guys know why facebook contact sync isn't working but twitter contact sync does? does this facebook app think we have htc sense? only on sense roms does it not usually allow someone to sync and the reason is because facebook htc sense is installed. its not something i'm rushing but it just annoying and the reason is something i can't figure out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rubixmaster:
Battery is Much better IMO.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
flash apk here.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cosmocanyon:
I'm not sure, I'll have to logcat it and see why it fails.

Update: good call on facebook. I'm not sure how to fix this atm without breaking other stuff.

nice work bro. keep it up. :D doesnt this remind u of the hero with .27 source in eclair?!~> "everything works but camera" lol

anyhow good work again ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] jxs1984:
getting really close to a complete froyo build!
[EVO 4G Android Development] myth_mn:
good job guys! looking forward to the progress.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Hero_Over:
wonderful work youve done here. any hints as to why a kernel from toasts source responds with system crash?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Fadakar:
I'm assuming it's a way bigger challenge now 'cause there's 2 and as far as I know no way to switch between them with an AOSP rom. D;
[EVO 4G Android Development] psych2l:
Do you think your hack work for the wiimote app? Thanks, looking forward to any progress!
[EVO 4G Android Development] toastcfh:

Re: (Rom) EVOlution-Update V7

I'd doubt it. Remember we're hacking bits and pieces of eclair and froyo together to get this to work at all. I'm not really 100% sure why Bluetooth isn't working ATM. And I'm not sure if its just me or if it's broken for others as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Riztnack:
So far I can not seem to get my GPS to work. I Wiped all data before installing v7. v6 GPS worked no problem.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
I couldnt get a log of crash. With my testing i think its how its replacing the kernel. I still need to make a boot.img for it. But even flashing the exact same kernel thats in this build crashes and runtime wont start.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Cayniarb:
so, i just tried flashing this using ROM Manager from Fresh .2. I selected the wipe option in ROM Manager, but apparently that doesn't work so well... I ended up with a very odd mostly AOSP 2.1 build.

I reflashed it with toast's recovery and a full wipe (data, cache, dalvik) and got the full 2.2 ROM. I don't know what happened with ROM Manager.

Also, I am having some issues with the market not showing lots of apps (not just protected ones -- common and free ones like urbanspoon). I was able to pull the ones I wanted from Titanium, so no big deal.

Thanks for all the hard work on this ROM, it rocks. Look forward to cameras working soon too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cosmocanyon:
Re: (Rom) EVOlution-Update V7

Works here maps got a lock accurate to 4 meters. Did you wipe?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Hero_Over:
yeah its a very odd problem. i actually made a boot.img and still the same problem
[EVO 4G Android Development] Avalaunchmods:
ok when i did it last night it just told me no BT which i know how to fix. its all about permissions. but i g2g till tonight. so goodluck evryone
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
avalaunchmods thank you for all your hard work, we're all appreciative. hopefully i'll be able to get boot tonight.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ronjeremy_69:
So, does this mean that 4G works with this build? Can anyone verify this?

I can live without the camera and mms, but dammit im going to get as much use as possible out of the extra $10 a month theyre making me pay for 4G!
[EVO 4G Android Development] shep211:

[EVO 4G Android Development] timgt:
I wonder when we will get Froyo running for the EVO and not a port of the Nexus one's version. :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
this has been answered many times, we will have froyo when google release the source or aosp. Until then all we can do is build off of that ported rom. Obviously no one knows when google is going to release the codes. Everyone else the upload is at 30%, almost done.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
Everybody i'm sorry but i use mediafire.com and their website just went down. is there any other free file hosting available?
[EVO 4G Android Development] CryptoArgonaut:
Free sharing

I use yousendit dot com (sorry for no url.. junior level restrictions). You can send it to yourself in email (it will ask you for the email address you want to share it with), then share out the URL on the forums. The only problem is it's a time-limited share. It's good for 7 days.

Another option is skydrive from Microsoft - gives you 25GB and the ability to restrict access, but it requires a live ID to use.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
its 74.1mb i can't email it. I will try yousendit.com but if it has restrictions my work computer may not be able to access it.

Thanks for this ROM, awesome work. Can anyone confirm if their screen rotates? The setting is checked off in Display settings to do so but mine does not rotate.

Off topic, can a mod fix this for me please

"To prevent spam to the forums, new users must wait five minutes between posts. All new user accounts will be verified by moderators before this restriction is removed."
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
I'm curious what others have removed with no problems.

I have removed

Launcher2.apk (replaced with launcher pro)

I'm thinking I could remove

ChromeToPhone <--whatever that is

GenieWidget <--dont believe im using this

HTMLViewer <--heard that was okay to remove

LatinImeGoogle & LatinImeTutorial <--ill never use this

Maps <--do i need that for google navigate?

talk and talkback <--dont think ive ever used those either

im just curious really since its so easy to delete whatever i dont need from the system completely id rather just make a list. So if anyone has any info on those much appreciated.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
My Jabra BT8010 acts funny also..the media part of it is the only thing that works and even then the audio is routed through the phone and headset..nothing with phone calls goes through the headset though.

oh and the first audio never goes through the headset it takes a bit before the headset actually kicks in.
[EVO 4G Android Development] AndroidFileHost:
Not sure what apk file it is or if it can be installed like that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] CFitzgerald11:
facebook syncing

is there any way to sync facebook contacts in froyo like htc facebook app does... i know phones like nexus one and droid have this working on there standard/senseless platforms... thanks very much
[EVO 4G Android Development] cosmocanyon:
Umm flash stock/root grab teh apk save to sd restore nandroid install apk?

Just grasping. I don't see why that wouldn't work, though.

I'm at an impasse, however. When I unlocked nand, I installed clockwork mod recovery. I deleted the nandroid I had of 2.1, and I'm having trouble finding a 2.1 I can flash without borking nand unlock. I need to get into 2.1 so I can pull some files but I really don't wanna have to go through the whole process of unlocking nand and reinstalling custom recovery...

So for the time being I'm done until I get more time. Back to work in the AM and won't be able to crack again until next week. I'm sure we'll have all new problems then.

[EVO 4G Android Development] binxer:
ChromeToPhone allows you to send things (maps, driving directions, etc) to your phone from your computer. I think you need the Chrome browser and download the extension. It works well and it's actually pretty cool.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
Have you treied installing the .apk for it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] AndroidFileHost:
Ill try it and let you know if it works, any idea where it is. Trying to locate it but not finding it in the rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
Thanks I do actually use Chrome browser..Never even thought of that..time to look for the extension :)

As far as Sprint Visual Voicemail goes I don't normally talk up a service but youmail.com by far blows it away in my opinion. Its free as long as you don't mind ads and you can set custom greetings for contacts and sync your youmail with facebook on the web site. I set up switching my voicemail over to youmail on their website in like 2 minutes. I've been using it since I had AT&T.

The free youmail app off the market does everything you need and its once click visual voicemail. Very impressive if you ask me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] AndroidFileHost:
ok I am setting it up now. Thanks.

Edit/Update: Thats a pretty cool app. Custom Greetings is awesome
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
When setting up your phone for Sprint on youmail.com the EVO wont be there..I just picked some phone..it wont matter.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jabbawalkee:
Here's Visual Voicemail (see attachments) :)...please let me know if it works. I'm going to flash this ROM later tonight
[EVO 4G Android Development] dhMassacre:

>>>DIRRRTY HACK ALERT<<<

This is all kinds of cheezy, and may/may not contiune to work after phone is rebooted. I am SOOOO not responsible for anything this breaks. Instructions below are for root w/ nand. If you're not nand unlocked, look up my older market fix and extrapolate. If you can't figure it out, you probably shouldn't be drinking the DEVONLY romz kool-ade ;-)

1. Download nexus1build.txt & market_fix.txt and save to ../android-sdk/tools

2. Uninstall facebook app.

3. Remove build.prop from system folder:

adb remount
adb rm /system/build.prop

4. Push nexus1build.txt as /system/build.prop & restart EVO:

adb push nexus1build.txt /system/build.prop
adb reboot

5. Use dialer app to checkin:

*#*#CHECKIN#*#*

6. Install facebook from market, configure sync as desired. WAIT FOR IT TO FINISH SYNCING.

7. Remove build.prop from system folder:

adb remount
adb rm /system/build.prop

8. Push market_fix.txt as /system/build.prop & restart EVO:

adb push market_fix.txt /system/build.prop
adb reboot

9. Use dialer app to checkin:

*#*#CHECKIN#*#*

10. ?????

11. PROFIT

SprintVVM.apk for those who need it...
[EVO 4G Android Development] cosmocanyon:

[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
i have full root but i will not be able to try until later tonight. I will post back results if no one else does 1st.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cosmocanyon:
it works ;-) I just wanted to make it abundantly clear that while I haven't noticed any adverse effects, it's a pretty cheezy hack and generally a bad idea to put the wrong build.prop. Breaks bluetooth, hw3d, and cellular data until you put it back. If you're unable to figure out how to put it back etc = not my fault.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
WOW you're confirming it works :D this is the next best thing to getting the camera working. YOU'RE THE MAN
[EVO 4G Android Development] cosmocanyon:
;-) I wouldn't have posted it if it didn't work... I just wanted to point out it's a pretty low/bad/cheap/sucky way of making it work. Is there a better way? I'm sure. Would it involve more effort than the above? I'm sure.

P.S. I don't know if AV & toast will agree, but I'm pretty sure that the cameras are a lost cause until we get source. We need some pieces we're missing, notably a way not to induce a kernel panic when the camera.apk figures out that there's more than one camera and has to choose... LOL
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
