Yeah, I understand. There's just a lot of information out there. These forums are surpassing wikipedia for information! I can see how it would appear to be favoritism, but DC isn't likely to go anywhere, even Toast has a humongous thread. There should be a point when a popular dev gets so much of a response that it becomes necessary.

Especially since this is no longer just a dev forum. When sites like Engadget post an article showing off the latest and greatest with Root, people want to check it out, so those who are 'uninitiated' start to jump in, not that it's a bad thing, but it creates a lot of cross-information and questions that are answered repeatedly and it just frustrates those like you who are here to help.

I myself would like to give DC a shot, but I've got a lot of questions as well and the search on these forums isn't always helpful, even if you know how to use it. Part of the problem (for lack of a better word) is all the updates and changes and fixes, and old information and new information and on and on, not just here in this thread but all over in many many different threads.

For instance, I'm running root with nand access and Fresh 5.3. DC 3.2.3 requires the updated OTA patch, right? But aren't there some people who experience problems with WiMax working afterwards? After the update, can you still run older non-patched Roms like Fresh 5.3? Is it still possible to get to a stock ROM for warranty/returns? Will my nandroid backup of fresh 5.3 work after I try DC?

I'm sure all of the above has been answered, it's just confusion of it's own in trying to find the answers at times.

Thanks for all that help you do and everyone else who helps out, it is appreciated.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nief1313:
Agreed, subforums would make sifting through all the posts much easier to find information and it would not be showing favortism, i think it should be done for all the devs that have the same problem.

Help,

I am in an endless boot cycle:

I was running JIT Casual Sense and everything was fine, I was in browser and all of a sudden phone just started vibrating non-stop. I pulled battery and now an in endless boot cycle phone will not start. It goes through bootanimation, I see the lock bar, and then instantly reboots.

What was the problem that cause this and how can I fix?

Thanks :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] itmustbejj:
From post #2 on first page:

-If you end up crashing hard you can disable JIT with:

Code:

adb shell remount

adb shell rm /data/data/com.damaged.DConfig/dc.conf

If that doesn't work I would nandroid back to last nandroid and consider disabling JIT until you find out what is not playing nice with JIT on your phone.

Personally I don't run JIT. It is just not worth the troubleshooting on 2.1 for a 3 mflops difference. Wait til you get get JIT on froyo and go from 7 mflops to 30ish mflops instead of 7 to 9/10ish mflops with instability now.

Question: I'm running the latest damage control Rom 3.2.3 with the konikubs full color aloysus theme 1.0. There java blue counter-clockwise icon that pops up in my notification bar and whatever it is it drains my battery like nobody's business.

Does anyone know what it is and how to get it to stop?

Thanks in advance.

I apologize if this has been referenced somewhere else, but I couldn't find it. Is there a place that breaks down what settings each Auto Tuning Profile uses? I am specifically interested in what the "Battery Saver" profile does as far as what is disabled or slowed down to save battery. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] usctrunks:
I currently have 3.2.3. I am seeing significantly slower speeds on my 3g and 4g uploads and downloads. Maybe it's because currently Sprints network is getting owned maybe it's because of the update, I have no idea. Anyone else having slower speeds after the update?

-U
[EVO 4G Android Development] itmustbejj:
That's the sync icon. This happens when you Friendstream is banned with live wall sync still enabled.

Enable friendstream from banned apps, reboot, go into accounts & sync > facebook >advanced options and uncheck live wall sync and then reban friendstream and reboot.

If that doesn't work:

From post #2 on the first page....

-If your accounts & sync FC after upgrading from another rom you can try to do the following but be warned you will need to resync everything (not a big deal)

Code:

adb remount

adb shell rm /data/system/accounts.db

adb reboot
[EVO 4G Android Development] TheMike1:
Yes, the adb commands did not work, I had tried those. I forgot to mention that :D

I guess I will have to nandroid back. :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] myndwire:
To be honest, you're lucky if you even have 4g at this point. I'm sick of waiting... and I have no idea if it even has any issues post-OTA. Went to a 4G-area last weekend, but didn't dip close enough to downtown Lancaster, so I never picked it up with either my rooted, or my wife's unrooted Evo. Damnit...
[EVO 4G Android Development] usctrunks:
Haha. yeah 4g rocks.

Uhm as for the speed thing I think it has something to do with the tether application. I used PDAnet and got my good speeds but the tether app is significantly slower.

-U
[EVO 4G Android Development] usctrunks:
I'm talking like 1.2mbs using wireless tether v. 2.7mbs using PDAnet
[EVO 4G Android Development] itmustbejj:
Myndwire don't worry I am in your same boat. Here in Indy we are having the frickin Sprint Cup nascar race this month and have no 4g...what up with that? I just got to try it this weekend when I went to Kansas City, and it is nice, but I think it's more situational then for constant use. I only used in when in the hotel to tether so I didn't have to pay stupid internet charges @ mariott (and for speedtests of course). Everywhere else I just used 3g cuz I wasn't streaming video or anything.
[EVO 4G Android Development] trojandnc:
Thx. I'll try that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] TrevE:
its very possible speeds could be slower post ota. i pointed this out when i was first doing the OTA deodexing, build.prop contains this line:

#Modify MTU from 1500 to 1472 on 3G network

ro.ril.set.mtu1472 = 1

Dont know why they did this, they changed this post ota and i never tested one way or another. Maybe someone can try changing this to 0 and speedtesting then back to 1?

according to http://www.dslreports.com/faq/695
[EVO 4G Android Development] piry525:
very great and fast rom thanks keep up the good work
[EVO 4G Android Development] rehh:
haha............Just a few days ago I never even heard of rooting a phone:D

FYI...... I did read, read a ton, most of this entire thread in fact, feel like I've come a long way in a short time, especially given all the unexpected problems I ran into.
[EVO 4G Android Development] myndwire:
True that man, 3G is good enough because Sprint has always had a superior 3G network, but I'm still itching for that 4G goodness :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] itmustbejj:
I feel ya, I was just saying I cared about it a lot more until I actually tried it. It was nice though, got like 4.4 mbps, but it's not like I would leave it on for constant data use and most places where I would stream a video on my evo I will have wifi. And aside from greedy ass hotels, I rarely have to tether my phone.

For those of you that have the newest Damage installed what is the software version with it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] apollooff320:
OK so this is my millionth time making this post with no help. Why isn't apps2SD not working on this ROM. I manually partioned my phone, partioned through clockwork, and partioned through RA. No matter what I do apps2SD just don't work. I have it checked in DCconfig also. I can move my Dalvik to SD but my apps won't go. I continue to see my internal memory go down when installing apps and it's already at 100mb and my SD card sits at 6.90GB and won't go down.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Riptide9:
Not that unusual, expect it to get 10 times larger. The EVO is a fairly new device and each chef's thread will grow very large. I just came to the EVO from the TouchPro2 and ENRGZ thread at ppcgeeks, who is one chef of more than dozens, is well over 2000 pages deep and still growing. The key is hoping that damgeless and TrevE keep the first couple of pages updated with the new info (which there are btw, Thanks guys!) Most people will/should look there first before needing to ask simple questions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] casual864:
Anyone know how to fix the vanilla lock screen? Everytime I download it and flash it in recovery it still doesn't change the htc lock screen.

Nvm removed HTC lock screen in the DC options, rebooted now running vanilla lock. Great rom! :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] itmustbejj:
Go to search and click advanced search, search for keyword "lockscreen" and for user "Treve". The 7th post has your answer. I will leave the last step to you.

Edit: Not to be a ****, but the reason you can't easily find your answer immediately is because too many people do what you do and ask the same question that has already been answered and bury the answer even deeper before searching for it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] soner607:
newbie question...

How do I get the HTC stocks app/widgets back on this Rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] itmustbejj:
Any HTC widget is included in sense. If you have sense banned, you won't be able to access any of its apps. So you would need to unban sense and reboot.

Google finance has a stock widget you could use as a replacement and still leave sense banned if that is your thing.

I noticed there are two kernels, what is the best way to flash a new kernel? Do you need to reflash the ROM, or can you just flash the kernel without reflashing the ROM again?
[EVO 4G Android Development] usctrunks:
just so everyone knows. I fixed the slow tether problem by installing the tether application from the android marker.

I noticed in Dc config that I wireless N is unchecked but I can't check it. Could this be the reason why my wifi keeps saying disconnected?
[EVO 4G Android Development] welrope:
Wireless N is enabled by default on the new ota. No need to enable in dcupdater. You can verify by looking at wireless settings and seeing what speed your connected at.
[EVO 4G Android Development] welrope:
No, but check in dc config, under banned apps, and see if it is checked for some reason.

Not going to keep searching

Been searching for more than an hour and I'm just done.

Right now I am running:

[EVO 4G Android Development] oubravs2b:
Wow - that was it. Wonder why it got banned after flashing Aloysis? Thanks for the help...feel really dumb now! :p
[EVO 4G Android Development] welrope:
One is the kernel that is native to this rom. NO need to flash it unless your coming back from a modified kernel.

The other is a modified kernel. read here for info

Flash the kernel just like a rom. recover, flash zip from sd, choose and flash. OR you can use rom manager..
[EVO 4G Android Development] BB15:
This is what I did and I would recommend it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] welrope:
Not sure how that happened, but glad its fixed. If you enabled JIT by chance, it will remove updater.

apps2SD is working for me on DC 3.2.3 and previous versions. After partitioning your card, how are you restoring apps?

also see below from post 2:

Dconfig Apps2SD:

....You can confirm its enabled by running the following:

Quote:

adb shell

cd /data/app/

pwd

It should return /system/sd/app/
[EVO 4G Android Development] kperry1911:
Most are reporting success w/ the "flash from beginning" (Whislack) method. It is very easy. I did it last night and restored my Nandroid of DC and was good to go in minutes. Connection seemed improved vs. when I flash individually.

-Good Luck!

Treve is the stock kernal upto date with all your latest edits etc?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Intensentropy:
I flashed DC 3.2.3 last night and I just noticed today that my camera app doesn't seem to be working. I'm new to all this so I'm experimenting and learning but I was wondering if anyone had the same issue and if they had some advice. I'm considering just flashing an older ROM to see if that fixes it but I don't want to start randomly flashing ROMs if the problem lies somewhere else.

Thanks!

EDIT: Okay, so I went into DConfig settings and re-enabled friendstream so that I could get that data loading icon to disappear and now... my camera works, after a reboot. I'm not sure if anyone else can duplicate this but I figured I would share. I'm still not sure if this is an intermittent problem or fixed for good, and I'll try to reproduce the broken camera but so far I haven't had any issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bielinsk:
Does the kernel indicate that the camera works?
[EVO 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
Would you happen to have fring installed?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SnoopDawg:
It wouldn't be that slower. Technically there would be less to fragment. It won't make a difference.

Ethernet is 1504, most peeps roll up on 1500. My guess would be that they would set the MTU to 1472 for protocol overhead.

It would like to see what RFC1323 is set to and if they have enabled selective acknowledgements. Probably just as well as RFC2549 and my favorite RFC3092.
[EVO 4G Android Development] apollooff320:
I restored the apps from the marketplace. Didn't even use a back up. I'll adb shell and check things out and reports my results back in a few after I wipe Froyo off.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Intensentropy:
Yes, I do have fring installed. I never checked to see if it was working through fring before I got it working again though.

Dunno if this is normal but, ever since damage3.2, even though I uncheck all sync's for google - mail, contacts and calander. the little circular arrow is still green and not grayed out like it should be. i dont have any problems with 3.2.3 besides this, and dcupdater fc's when it looks for an update.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Intensentropy:
Do you have friendstream or facebook blocked in DConfig? If so, they either need to be both blocked or both un-blocked. Blocking one but not the other seems to make that data symbol remain contantly on.

I rooted, then nand rooted, on two different phones. both 003 with epson. I just flashed 3.2.3 (newest as of now) rebooted, played with it for a min. then flashed the radio. and so far so good. Had it on the first phone for 2 days and seemed good. Now have it on my new phone for about a week and all seems good. The only thing that really matters is what you use and how you use it. IE, 4G, JIT live wallpapers, and how much you change the rom or extra stuff you flash over it. I have nothing but the rom and the radio flashed and it seems to work good.

After that, my gallery does not work, nothing related to SD Card, as if it was not there. I did this a few times, same results.
