download the theme..... reboot into recovery manually.

Flash it that way for now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
You either didn't do a data wipe or you are suffering from clockwork not wiping sd:ext properly.

They can be done from within recovery. Although clockwork isn't wiping sd:ext properly.

Not sure what's causing this but it doesn't happen on Amon. Either flash to Amon's recovery or go a page or two back to see what others did to be able to flash. But there is something different about clockwork recovery that isn't allowing it to load up properly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] hawkyman:
Do you know what folder the fresh updater downloads the zip to?

edit: sd/downloads
[EVO 4G Android Development] dadoc04:
mine was in /sdcard/download
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
I would hope so. I built it from source. hehe. /sdcard/download/
[EVO 4G Android Development] hawkyman:
hahaha great work i hated the htc lock screen. Downloading it and manually flashing it works great.

Keep it up man
[EVO 4G Android Development] hondamx525:
When i click on apps to download in the market its just loading blank pages not letting me download apps, anybody have any tips?
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
Just tested and mine's fine (and 0.5.x was beta tested for a week without any related issues). Try just going under settings < applications < manage < market and clearing everything then force close the app if it's open. Then try again. And I have to ask, did you do a full wipe of everything when you flashed?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Young_e:
Flipz,

Do i still need to do a data/dalvik wipe if i'm flahing to 0.5.3 from 0.5.2?? thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
Dalvik yes but the installer does that for you. Data, nope. In fact you can make your life easier by just grabbing the updated patch off fresh updater (only available for 0.5.2 to 0.5.3). It's only 2mb and you're set.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SilentSummer:
Awesome update, thanks!

I have one issue. I thought Titanium backup is supposed to restore you logged in accounts/messages etc.

All the apps are restored, but I don't have any of my email accounts restored or SMS messages (using paid version).
[EVO 4G Android Development] Young_e:
Okay so once i download through fresh updater just click apply now and i'm good? Do i need to back up anything before had or will all my contacts and text message be saved? Sorry for the noob question, i'm new to android but i'm catching on
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
Sorry, I don't know anything about titanium backup. Granted it should work just fine but i'm very anti-data transfers. A backup to protect your data is one thing. But backing it up from one setting and importing it in to another always causes problems.

A nandroid backup is always recommended just in case something happens, but for that patch it shouldn't required. So correct just grab it from fresh updater, click apply now and you're on your way. But again... always do a nandroid backup. lol. That is done through recovery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Young_e:
Thanks flipz u the man
[EVO 4G Android Development] Young_e:
i use titanium to only backup apps and thier data, i use sms backup to back up sms messages and its free from the market place. I wouldn't recommend backing up systems files and data, as fresh said it usually causes problems
[EVO 4G Android Development] furrelkt:
not sure what i am doing wrong with the updater theme stuff... it still says i can't download the update.zip. i am choosing Vanilla Lock + Vanilla Clock. just says an error occured.. and unable to download from any mirror...
[EVO 4G Android Development] zeeyo987:
sorry just to be clear does this include the sprint ota from yesterday?
[EVO 4G Android Development] muncheroo:
nope. flipz said he won't be doing that till the RUU is leaked
[EVO 4G Android Development] david279:
no......

[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
It's definitely working, and I just tested again to confirm. It was a typo on my server that was preventing it from working before. You have refreshed your list right? If it's still not working then you could try going under manage applications > fresh updater > clear everything then force close and then try again. You will have to resetup the theme server though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Young_e:
flipz,

Is it normal for the fresh updater to still show the update even after it has been applied? when i go and look and my build number is say Fresh Evo 0.5.3 but when i go to fresh updater the update is still showing up under roms, and exisiting. Do i just delete those now? Thanks just wanted to make sure i applied the update correctly
[EVO 4G Android Development] aaron130:
Awesome work AS USUAL flipz! Love it!! One question. Is this deodexed? Im trying to flash a godzson clock and its failing, but I know IM using the deodexed clock.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dadoc04:
i was having that issue as well using the RA Recovery...

I flashed back to the Clockwork Recovery via Rom Manager and it worked...

Hope this helps
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
If you click refresh then it will go away. The "themes" won't but the roms will.

It is deodexed however it has also been resigned because that's the only way to get the modifications in (270 rotation, landscape rosie, etc). That is why it's not working. It needs to be resigned. Assuming you are saying that it's installing but just failing to work. If that's not what you mean then tell me what you mean by failing. What's the error?

I'm going to be away from the computer for a while. Thanks for the kind words everyone, I'm glad everything is working.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Young_e:

http://geekfor.me/faq/how-to-use-fresh-updater/
[EVO 4G Android Development] keaolyen:
I found Clockwork Recovery absolutely wouldn't work for me so for those already rooted but have Clockwork Recovery installed I’ve found an easy way to replace it with Amon’s.

1) Download Terminal Emulator from marketplace (tried adb but had write permission issues)

2) Perform step #17 as outlined in Neckface’s "(How-To) FULLY ROOT UNLOCKING NAND -WITHOUT- USING ADB IN 30 STEPS!". I can't post a link yet so you'll have to find it yourself, it's here on XDA.

You’ll need to download the appropriate files and place them on root of your SDCARD. recovery.img (renamed from something else) and flash_image are the only ones you’ll need and directions for finding those files and properly renaming them are in the howto.

I hope this saves someone else some time...
[EVO 4G Android Development] furrelkt:
thank you flipz...these directions you gave me fixed the issue. Thanks!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] shad0w77:
or you can just click the button in rom updater and swap between the two recoveries when needed. someone else mentioned this in the last couple of pages...
[EVO 4G Android Development] furrelkt:
all you have to do is use the Flash Alternate Recovery in ROM Manager... then when it's done installing... use the Roboot into Recovery in ROM Mananger.. at least that's what i did. :-)

Edit: sorry shad0w77 i was typing as you were replying back as well...
[EVO 4G Android Development] aaron130:
Weird, I did what dadoc04 said (thx dadoc04) and they flashed fine and worked! Thats odd.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nkawal:
OK, so let me get this straight, I am currently running a themed version of 0.3. I just downloaded 0.5.3, can i just put it onto sdcard and flash thru recovery, then wipe or wipe first then flash thru recovery, i think i somehow accidently got 0.3 to work. dont wanna mess this up. thanks in advance for anyone that helps out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] carguy4471:
Dowload 0.5.3 to your SD card, reboot to recovery, wipe data and dalvik and install the .zip from SD card. Worked like butter for me!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tallen:
Great work Flipz!!! I am loving the rom, can't wait to see what you are going to do with the 2.2 update for the EVO. I have reviewed this thread and noticed some are getting great battery life from their EVO. Mine, on the other hand, sucks and I am not sure for what reason. Could someone share any special tweaks they are using to get the great battery life. I have tried most the tweaks that are on the XDA site but none seem to help. I have had the phone unplugged for 47 minutes and my battery is at 69%. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nkawal:
THANKS...do i need to wipe data and davlik 3 times like when i first rooted?
[EVO 4G Android Development] danon.brown:
Flipz great work thanks.. i dont know what it would take to get it working or even if its capable, but any chance the wireless N for the 5GHZ in your next update?
[EVO 4G Android Development] twe90kid:
I get "No theme update server configured" Do i need to do something?
[EVO 4G Android Development] IAMCLP1:
I also just tried to install this the same way I did 0.3 (themed) and it would not take from Rom Manager, ClockWord Recovery.

I am currently doing a restore now, and will need to do these steps also until someone can figure out what the compatibility issue is ...
[EVO 4G Android Development] mkeena0305:
I use the minfreemanager in market. Set to aggressive. It has made a big difference for my battery life.
[EVO 4G Android Development] twe90kid:

[EVO 4G Android Development] fibrizo:
Flips I'm having issues with the fresh updater too. I choose a theme and it downloads but when it tries to flash it gets stuck on the android screen with exclaimation. I am using amon's recovery now. If I manually go into recovery and flash it seems to work. I wiped before I went from 0.3 -> 0.5.2beta ->0.5.3.

Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrono:
Please tell me there is an option to turn off 270 degree rotation, I want to stick with stock rotation. I like being able to use the phone while laying in bed, can't do it on my left side because of the rotation, but with stock I can lay on my right side and have the phone sideways and it won't rotate.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dadoc04:
no problem man.. glad u got it working...
[EVO 4G Android Development] hack-a-lak:
I updated this rom while out and about so I didn't see the notes until now. Oddly enough I updated without a wipe and everything works perfect. What is not supposed to work or apply if we dont wipe before this new update? I see no issues yet. Also installed Vanilla lock and rosie rotater fine but manually from recovery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] twe90kid:
ok, dumb question... when i install rosie rotate... it will reboot into recovery. after that I don't need to launch anything right? just reboot the phone?
[EVO 4G Android Development] furrelkt:
did you set it up already? if so try this... if not go here and set the server up. :-) HTH
[EVO 4G Android Development] twe90kid:
yah, got it. THANKS!
[EVO 4G Android Development] mcotten:

[EVO 4G Android Development] phobia:

[EVO 4G Android Development] a2k:
Vanilla Lock Confusion

OK, I'm lost...

I've followed the instructions on updating the Theme server. However when I check for updates, the only theme listed is the Enable Rosie Rotation. Where are the Vanilla Lock options?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bhagiratha:
I have tried 3 other times, but the phone keeps going to that same reboot loop. Does it have anything to do with this:

"ClockworkMod Recovery v1.8.1.7

formatting SDEXT: ...

E: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

(no such device)

Error mounting /sd-ext/!

Error formatting SDEXT:!

"

Also, how can I stop the reboot loop without taking out the battery?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dmc971989:
after flashing this rom im having a few major issues...

i no longer have 3g... i get error 67 every time it tires to turn on and i cant update my PRL (no update available)... this now happens in any rom i flash, i also tried to manually install a PRL via the Verizon hack method and it didnt work either

the second issue is that if i try to boot my phone up with the sd card installed it will bootloop... if i remove the SD it will boot up

this only happens in this rom and ive wiped/reflashed multiple times...

is anyone else having these issues or do i just have a rouge Evo?
[EVO 4G Android Development] axlebot:
Might I make a request? I'd like the eclair style lock screen. The rotating dial that's very similar to the current vanilla lock screen but with rotating dial instead of the drag buttons. I could also work it out myself if someone could point me in the right direction. Either way works.
[EVO 4G Android Development] IAMCLP1:
Yes, that is the problem ... read back a few pages and this issue has been addressed a few times. ClockWork Recovery is not working for "most" people, you have to use another method.

The reboot loop, I have came across several time also - the only way to end is to pull the battery that I know of as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dadoc04:
pull the battery.... put the battery back in.... manually boot into recovery. (vol down + power)

select flash from sd.... go into the download folder and locate the file you downloaded. flash....

hope this helps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chino0131:
Hit the button on the right of the "Enable Rosie Rotate". This will pull up a menu showing the additional themes.

So I'm trying to enable the Vanilla Lock Screen and when the phone went to reboot it ended up sitting on this screen with a white triangle that has a yellow ! mark inside of it next to a little green android. Should I sit here with this and wait or did I screw something up?
[EVO 4G Android Development] drbgotenks:
You need to manually go into recovery and load the .zip.

This is a problem with clockwork recovery. Pull the battery, restart phone holding volume, choose recovery and flash that way.
[EVO 4G Android Development] weidong:
Ah. Alright. Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tallen:
try this..."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." I pulled this off of Flipz website (geekfor.me).
[EVO 4G Android Development] Yager:
No 3g Service and Very poor regular signal

I flashed the new rom 0.5x from .3. I wiped all partitions. No FCs everything works great but i get zero 3g Signal and very poor regular signal, 1 maybe 2 bars.

Any Ideas? I'm in Minneapolis area.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drbgotenks:
If you are having issues. Please read the release notes on Flipz site:

http://geekfor.me/new-release/fresh-evo-053/

The first thing to do if you are having any ROM issues is do a wipe. Install the rom, and see if the issues occurs before you install any apps.

This is a great way to do a little troubleshooting on your own.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drbgotenks:
What radio do you have installed?
[EVO 4G Android Development] xtravgnt:

[EVO 4G Android Development] koricua74:
Did you wipe your ext partition? If you're using Clockwork's recovery it's been having problem wiping the sd - ext. Flash Amon's recovery wipe everything then flash the flash the ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dmc971989:
it says "no profile update available"

still get error 67's every time i turn on 3g and i still cant boot with the SD card installed... ive flashed the latest damage control rom for now because it will actually boot with my sd card in, but im still getting error 67's... i didnt have this problem before i flashed fresh?

i know it didnt break anything permanently, but i would kind of like to have working 3g... lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] dmc971989:
first time i flashed using clockwork... after that wouldnt work i flashed the latest recovery from Amon, wiped every option availiable, and flashed the rom... still bootloops with sd card installed
[EVO 4G Android Development] carguy4471:
This isn't a ROM problem, it's a sprint problem. A fit of phone reboots an attempts and updating the phone profile will usually resolve it within 20 minutes. I've seen this twice since I got my evo and each time it worked itself out shortly after I went into fits.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drbgotenks:
Maybe try downloading again. Could be a bad file somewhere.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dmc971989:
i understand that... but ive been rebooting, attempting to update profile (and PRL) for two hours now and nothing has changed, it just seems funny that it happened right after i flashed the rom
[EVO 4G Android Development] dmc971989:
ive tried three different DL links so far... no dice on any of them
[EVO 4G Android Development] drbgotenks:
On a side note, anyone know how/why I became a senior member?
[EVO 4G Android Development] drbgotenks:

[EVO 4G Android Development] koricua74:

yeah no camera problems here either qik works and my 3g and 4g working great ive been liking fresh roms i got 12 hours with my 1750mah seido extended batetry after conditioning it great job flips and i did believe i saw a post stating from now on we can flash new updates via fresh updater like when new OTA is out and its rooted we can just update via fresh updater once flipz put rooted update out if this is true im sticking with flipz roms like white on rice its like have a rooted phone with automatic safe updates :)

stupid question does this rom work with micro hdmi couldnt seem to get last .3 or this one to work with it i dont belive i remember seeing it posted in the changelog or anywhere in this thread
[EVO 4G Android Development] koricua74:
Could be a bad sd card. you might need to switch it out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dmc971989:
i dont believe thats the case since it works fine in other roms... case in point, im using damage control for the time being and everything works fine
[EVO 4G Android Development] ZombieRace:
Flashed from Fresh 0.3 to Fresh 0.5.3.

No issues major issues so far!

I had to move the Vanilla lock .zip to the root of the SDCard but that's been covered. Gasped a little bit when greeted with !, but all is good now.

Great ROM, very stable.

I am having persistent SDCard issues despite using fix permissions. If I reboot, I have to run fix permissions soon after the OS loads to use the SD card at all. I'm going to back it up and reformat the card, hope that will help.

Thanks again for all your hard work, great ROM!

[EVO 4G Android Development] dmc971989:
i did backup the TI backup file on my computer, and after putting it back on my SD i can see it, and so can Titanium backup, but none of the programs will install

im not worried about that tho, i can download apps again... i just need working 3g, does anyone know of a rom that will update your profile/prl during flash (similar to what flipz did with a few of his Hero roms)

or maybe even flashing a newer radio would do it?
