as much as i want to root, i don't know if it's worth it for me, only thing i want is tethering and thats not working in any form right now rooted or not right. even pda net over usb right. what else can i really do with root?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timothydonohue:
run apps that require root. like torch. or better yet, adfree. those stupid admob banners drive me batty. or even better, remove apps that you don't want or need. on my N1, the first thing i ever pull off of a ROM is amazon mp3. it's ALWAYS running, and i never use it. not once. but, it gets called for by half the the darn programs you open.

control your phone! it's yours, you should be able to do what you want with it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thorpe24:
fair enough but without a video i'm pretty lost, i was one of the orignal guys hacking the pre but that seems like a life time ago, and i had video to boot.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mongoose8p:
By hacking the pre do you mean enabling developer mode haha and installing pre ware
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theoottesen:
Ok guys, I don't believe this is a big secret, there will be an update, all reps in the store are being directed to to advise the customer to push the update. It is for the sdcards and it most certainly IS NOT FROYO. I know this for a fact, because... well I just do. The email was sent out tonight to all sprint stores. I for one am just impressed at the speed htc took care of the issue. If you don't care about root then go for it, if you do than just wait until the devs fix it. Either way just remember it is not a Froyo update.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stunna4life888:
Thanks for letting us know first hand! I for one wont be doing it as im sure once someone roots it will be able to upload files and the amazing devs we have will find a way to push it out!

Quick Jump in.. I work for Sprint..

"the over-the-air software update mentioned above will resolve the known SD card issues in the EVO"

Product Development & Consumer Ops will continue to monitor the EVO SD card’s performance.

Thats from the Product Dev Team..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geeserver:
I was using AndExplorer & AndFTP and the SD card goes corrupted. This explains the update from Sprint but I can just reboot the phone and it comes back. I'll just keep my EVO rooted. THANKS TOAST and the rest of the TEAM!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stunna4life888:
For someone who is willing to take one for the team and isn't that intrested in the whole rooting ability, if you would update your phone per OTA and then. after doing so try and do the root for poops and giggles. Report back to us so we know if you can still root or not. Someone is just gunna have to step up and hit the homerun lol. I already struck out so im hoping someone will hit the Walk Off Homer!:rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Freelancerx:
looks like the ota update breaks root so if you rooted your phone DONT ACCEPT OTA update

Device Specs:

Sapphire PVT 32B ENG S-OFF H

HBOOT-1.33.2005 (SAPP10000)

CPLD-10

Radio-2.22.19.26I

Rom: CyanogenMod 6.0.0-DS-RC2

My device seems to be lagging a lot, not always but i don't think its running as fast as it should be.

Ive turned everything off (gps, wifi, etc) all apps closed (using 'Advanced Task Killer' (ATK)) i get around 29m - 35m memory available which ATK told me.

Is this what i should be getting or should i be getting higher readings?

It may just be me being picky, but thought i would ask anyway.

Thanks

Chris
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] mbk.2k3:
35 mb is nothing.......

i try to hover around 100 mb.... but i dont have too many apps installed either.

maybe 10 ish.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] eyegor:
RAM and ROM are two very different things - althoug they both contain the word "memory".

I guess that's confusing :-)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] chrish2008:
well thats what i thought. Any reason why im only getting this??

i have very few apps installed prob 10ish aswell

thanks

chris
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] alan090:
you have a 32b which has the same memory as a g1/dream is why..

we have 100mb more on 32a boards
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] JARone:
Do you have it overclocked with apps such as SetCPU?

I have a 32b running CM5 also with 70ish apps and it runs well with very little to no lag at all by overclocking it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] chrish2008:
what have you used to overclock?

I do have SetCPU but it seems to be making very little difference, if any.
[EVO 4G General] deekoi:
Sprint has been known for their hype and no follow though...

I called a sprint store that is opening at 8am (normally 10am) and they said they expect a line out the door. Do you think there will be lines out the door and all day? Sold out first day/weekend?
[Droid Eris Android Development] sandman_nyc_316:
Sweet! Thanks! Going to flash when I get home. Is OTA disabled?
[Droid Eris Android Development] kenshincbb:
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK - settings above 710400 have been reported unstable on some Eris's and YOU CAN DAMAGE YOUR CPU IF RUN TO HOT FOR TO LONG with higher settings.

Weird....I've been running mine on 768000 for the longest time now with no problems what so ever.
[Droid Eris Android Development] droidkevlar:
And I run at 806 but he is saying this for the majority of ppl. So if they DO damage their phone, they dont blame him.

You really try everything dude. It's a very nice thing to do.
[Droid Eris Android Development] thenestor:
Anyone try it with JIT yet?
[Droid Eris Android Development] boostlover:
Wondering if wired tethering would be included in a later release? Seems to work somewhat faster than wireless for me.
[Droid Eris Android Development] boostlover:
I've been lurking for quite a while, just recently started posting on xda. Pretty sure I've tried all of the ROMs too. :D

Just got this one downloaded, about to flash it and see how it goes. Won't have to worry about A2SD with over 140mb of internal memory. Outstanding!
[Droid Eris Android Development] paintguy:
Nice Job

Just got XTR setup and it is very responsive. If battery life is decent then I will definitely use this everyday! Excellent effort and I commend you on your opening page. Very clear and consise!
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Re: [ROM][6/3/2010] xtrROM2.0 [stable,lwp, oc]

Thanks for the feedback. I will add wired tethering to the StockApps.zip flash and re post tonight or tomorrow.

Re: [ROM][6/3/2010] xtrROM2.0 [stable,lwp, oc]

Thanks for trying it out and the feedback! This ROM still runs on the core HTC framework and during my testing with jit could not get it stable enough for a daily ROM.

The widgets are broken apparently. I installed Advance Task Killer and everytime I click on it, it'll vibrate and that's it. OC widget isn't working either. Any ideas?

[EDIT] Oh, reboot was needed. Disregard. :)

Advanced task killer is not needed. The autokiller app does a much better job. Get rid of atk.

[Droid Eris Android Development] Tarpit_Carnivore:
I noticed you said this has LWP, so I'm assuming nav wont work then since that seems to be a common them. ie Alyosius
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Re: [ROM][6/3/2010] xtrROM2.0 [stable,lwp, oc]

Nav works very well with lwp on this ROM & I use almost daily. the Nav I have included is Googles NOT the HTC version which is where I believe (though I have fully tested) the issues are caused.

from the Photos app select a photo then menu>set as>Lock screen.

Yes the first boot takes a while as it is a fully deodexed ROM plus I have implemented a number of "firstboot" cleanup routines. next boot should be much faster
[Droid Eris Android Development] pacedrum69:
set cpu keeps force closing....
[Droid Eris Android Development] stopxstart:
I would definintely like to beta test this if you still need more testers. I've been running 2.1 for about 2 weeks now and am itching for a deodexed version :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
hum... I have not heard this one elsewhere... what setting are you showing in setCPU before it FCs? the Zanfur kernel will go higher then our phone can take so you have to "inch" in up from the 710400 value.

What ROM are you coming from?

I am considering using Ivanmmj kerner (which is closer to stock) for the release in that I used it for quite some time but decided to go with Zanfur's kernel simply because some like to clock higher than the 710400 limit Ivanmmj set on his...

feel free to PM me and thanks for your time :)
[Droid Eris Android Development] paintguy:
Me too. Mine freezes up and only set to 710. For info I am running launcherpro if that is of interest.
[Droid Eris Android Development] corrosivefrost:
Had this beta been a few days ago, I'd say count me in... but as I finally just got Tainted Vanilla up and running the way I like it, I don't think I'm likely to switch at the moment. :\ This ROM was on the top of my list of ROMs to try, but I wanted to get some experience with rooting/flashing first... and it just so happens that in that experience, I like TV just fine.

I'm very excited to see how this turns out though... great job zach.
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
what version of SetCPU do you use? the one form the market or the one that was being included on some ROMs?

Would you be willing to try overclock to see if it happens there as well?
[Droid Eris Android Development] paintguy:
I have the paid version. I'll try my copy of oc widget tonite.
[Droid Eris Android Development] pacedrum69:
i installed the newest version...its fine now....any way to change the dialer?? other than dialer one??
[Droid Eris Android Development] paintguy:
OC widget works. Will try setcpu again. Perhaps the data from backup conflicted.

edit: Setcpu now works...must have been conflicting settings stored in backup.
[Droid Eris Android Development] paintguy:
Since app is deoxed we should be able to install Contacts.apk with its dialer.
[Droid Eris Android Development] caleris:
Mine is set at the 710 mark and I am not getting the SetCPU FCs.
[Droid Eris Android Development] buff12db:
I'd like to start off by saying this is my favorite ROM out there. I've tried quite a few, and I love the concept of vanilla that "embraces sense." It's incredibly fast with JIT. Without OC'ing, I'm getting around 3.5 MFLOPs with JIT and have been relatively stable.

I have two issues so far: 1) When running Pandora, I get frequent reboots (not that big a deal, but I wanted to reiterate a previous post in this thread); and 2) The 3G signal seems to drop out quite a bit more than I have experienced with other ROMs and stock (perhaps this and the Pandora problem are related?)

That aside, many thanks and props to the developer.
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Is this true for running without jit? I am still researching but it is quite possible that Pandora is an app that does not play nice with the versions of jit we have access to for the Eris...

[EDIT] I will keep looking but this "appears" to be pointing to how dalvik-cache is run with jit in which case there is not much I can do at this point... other that make jit easy to toggle on/off perhaps ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] fenwaynomar45:
Where is the stock wallpaper in ur photos? I wanttt
[Droid Eris Android Development] buff12db:
3G happens with or without JIT, and Pandora occurs only when JIT is enabled. Hopefully Pandora comes out with an update that is JIT friendly with 2.2 being rolled out to the high-end devices soon.

I'm really excited for your update! Any idea what changes you're making?
[Droid Eris Android Development] corrosivefrost:
I'm pretty clueless when it comes to this stuff, but is the 3G something that might benefit from you running a *228, option 2?

zach, I sent you a PM about the beta, if you need more testers.

I think it's one of the beziers LWP...

[Droid Eris Android Development] fenwaynomar45:
I downloaded some fish live wallpaper and it works fine but when i hit end and then get out of my lock screen it goes back to the orginal wallpaper... any ideas y this is happening?
[Droid Eris Android Development] vandykky:
The same thing happened to my wifes eris on this rom, any ideas?
[Droid Eris Android Development] jcsugrue:
I haven't tried xtrROM yet (holding out for 3.0) but I cant tell you that Pandora does not play very well with JIT. Even without overclocking i've run into reboot issues using Pandora on several different roms.
[Droid Eris Android Development] corrosivefrost:
I believe there's a difference between what the rom is seeing as a "lock" wallpaper vs a "desktop" wallpaper. I know I've seen people say to use gallery to change it, but I'm not certain if you can change it to a LWP this way.
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
which wallpaper where you using from the market here?

Thanks!
[Droid Eris Android Development] vandykky:
I was using 'aquarium free'

Thanks
[Droid Eris Android Development] stopxstart:
Been running 3.0 for about a day now and it's coming along very well. Very stable (with Jit) and I have yet to hit an FC. I have had a few bugs but I'll PM zach.xtr about them.

I even took a little time and modified the status bar from black to white. I guess if people want that I can pass that along to zach as well as an option.

Keep up the good work.
[Droid Eris Android Development] caleris:
I would be interested in that white bar. I have also been testing, and it is a very stable ROM. The only problems I have run into took either a reboot or an uninstall/install of an app to fix.
[Droid Eris Android Development] pacedrum69:
ok , so I flashed this last night. (3.0)...and messed around a bit....and DIDNt do a Nand backup....went back to my old ROM, and today , re-downloaded it , and tried re-flashing....every time I am put into a boot loop......Ive tried factory reset, and dalik wipe...and NOTHING ...whats up?:confused:
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Try wiping data, dalvik, AND ext partition before flashing ROM.

also pull battery if you have not already.
[Droid Eris Android Development] fiftyonefifty:
just installed 2.1

I just installed 2.1, everything is running great, but I am getting a FC with pandora. I read that it has something to do with it not playing nice with JIT. Just wanted to say other than that small problem, so far I am very happy with it. Keep up the good work.
[Droid Eris Android Development] pacedrum69:
doing a partition wipe wont hurt anything??
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
No - it will just remove any apps (or parts of apps) that you have installed while using apps2sd, thants all... Specifically it is Wipe SD:ext partition under the Wipe option from recovery.

It is the equivilent of doing a data wipe/factory reset if you are NOT running apps2sd.

As you play with various ROMs that use apps2sd things can get out of sync and cause a boot loop issue; not 100% sure this is your problem but will not hurt to try.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Erris Bueller:
I had the boot loop issue yesterday on the beta 3.0 and I did the uid mismatch and then reflashed 3.0 with out doing a dalvik wipe or factory wipe.

That fixed my boot loop issue.
[Droid Eris Android Development] buff12db:
Can anyone tell me if doing a factory/data reset and dalvik wipe will remove JIT. I tried that last night to see if it would fix any of the 3g issues (Pandora and some other apps) I was having. It seems like JIT is gone now. I was getting around 5 MFLOPS with JIT, and now I'm getting around 3.5.
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
sould not toggle off JIT... sounds like you have stop OC.

I have configured the ROM so that JIT is set to true or false in the xtrROM.conf file located at system/etc. Basically during the boot process this file is read and "activates" the appropriate JIT lib files.
[Droid Eris Android Development] caleris:
I just sent you a long testing PM, hopefully it shows up. All is good.
[Droid Eris Android Development] buff12db:
This has been pretty weird. Earlier my phone was performing slow (1-3 MFLOPS OC'd to 768). Now I'm getting around 4.5 MFLOPS when OC'd to 768. I stopped OC and I'm getting around 3.5 MFLOPS average. Pandora has stopped causing a reboot. And it has only force closed once, but streaming often stops mid-song and opens a new song. I don't know how much of all this will be moot with 3.0.

Thanks again for a great ROM!!

[Droid Eris Android Development] teqknique:
I tried to Rom out on 2.0.1 and loved but then I kept getting random reboots which basically killed it for me. Has this been addressed in this new version?

BTW i'm not using Pandora.
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
Not sure what the random reboots might have been however I have not had any with 3.0.1 (or 2.0.1) and none of the beta testers reported any reboot issues... :confused:

Are you using JIT? OC? what other ROM are you on that is not rebooting?

Good luck and Enjoy
