[EVO 4G Android Development] cjacks519:
I had the same 4G issue with the .5 rom yesterday. I also made sure to wipe before flashing. I never could figure it out. I ended up going back to my nandroid of Flipz rom. Today I've flashed the .6 version (no overclock) and haven't noticed any major issues. I'm not in a 4G area this evening so I can't test that until tomorrow morning.

It's really nice to see the "Baked" roms from Hero_Over with a touch of Kspec hit the EVO. I'm coming to the EVO from the Nexus, and this is all starting to feel very familiar and comfy! :D Thanks for the hard work Hero_Over, and a donation is coming right at ya! Keep it up
[EVO 4G Android Development] Hero_Over:
Turn off the phone and take out the battery. Then boot and it will work. I'm sorry about the problems with the kernel but it is incomplete. I actually like it and use it because it is fast as hell

Edit: does anybody have working 4g on .5 or .6 . I can't test as I live in a no 4g area
[EVO 4G Android Development] jabbawalkee:
4G worked for me on .5 while I was in Bethesda, MD (where I normally get 4G). Internet was running fast and speed test was decent. I have yet to try .6 though.

Also, I can flash .6 on top of .5 without a wipe right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Hero_Over:
You have to wipe.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrmomoman:
5 was working fine. I wanted to try 6 and thats when it gave me some problems.

I will try again in a little bit.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stewie-droid:
Hero. Just FYI from tester's perspective. The new super-kernel you posted does not integrate well with your build (9.6). I want back to your original 9.6 build with it's kernel. If you could disable perflock in kernel in your next build that would be awesome.

I will post the screenshot little bit later in pm for reference.

Reasons

1. Superkernel you posted runs CPU at higher % then your's in 9.6 build.

Not sure if it's undervolt or stock volt. Either case even at 128MHZ when its sleeps runs at least 2x higher CPU then yours in bulild 9.6.

Was using it at max of 614mhz as with yours. Cpu works at higher %. Same app setup.

2. Seems to drain battery faster even at 128MHZ sleep speed, probably due to mentioned above

3. Kernel breaks facebook. Can not post comments to facebook. Facebook runs but connection error occurs. Did fresh flash twice and gave up.

Went back to build 9.6 which i was happy with.

Posted this at page 130 and still didn't get any response. Anyone know how to fix the FC on the Active Sync system option? It's really bugging me, because I cannot turn off gmail sync!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] vedavin:
try widgetlocker ($0.99) from the market....its nice
[EVO 4G Android Development] stewie-droid:
Just click on gmail synch or whatever you want to turn off from synching.

It will give you options sub synching categories and the uncheck each one of them. once unchecked. Just done/save and exit out. You will see gmail no longer synched/off.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Ceger:
You misunderstood. Time awake for me does not equal total time on. I said that the time awake matched the time I was using the phone, so I don't have an issue with the phone not sleeping.

Here is the result of TOP.

[EVO 4G Android Development] EyeslikeOlives:
I don't own an EVO so you can take this with a grain of salt. From what I know (and I'm sure this applies to all devices using it) GPS will drain your battery quite quickly. If I'm correct, stock EVO was getting around 6-8 hours (maybe even less) without even using the device, so if you're able to get that out of this ROM with GPS, BT, etc. enabled through-out your day, I would say this is far superior than stock at battery life.

There is even a warning that pops up when enabling GPS informing you that it does use up a lot of battery. You did say you tried to see a difference without it, correct? How did you test this? If this comes off as me being rude, I apologize. In no way am I trying to be offensive or a jackass, just trying to see the problem and help.

If you could, try your original settings for 4 hours - mark the battery life. Charge it to full again then try without GPS for 4 hours - mark the battery life. See if there's a difference. Also, do you have a Task Killer installed?

EDIT: Also, I've heard WiFi chews through battery just the same as GPS, try with that off. And what about your time without a signal? Do you get great reception where you use your phone through the day? Low signal + GPS + WiFi could equal out to be the problem.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Ceger:
Thanks for the great input. I will do a GPS test again tonight, but generally, the GPS only really activates when an app is using it, marked by the additional notification bar icon. When I am out of those apps, that process is shut off, thus why it doesn't make that huge a difference.

Regradless, I will try a 4 hour block test both ways later tonight or tomorrow.

As for WiFi, if it has signal, it is actually better than having mobile web on. I also have it set to never sleep which helps keep it on WiFi network, so I don;t think that is a big issue either.

As for BT, I just reinstalled BTCall which only turns on BT automtatically when I make or recieve a call, so that works great for saving battery. I just manually turn BT on when using a BT headset for music. I had stopped using it on the Hero when we got the 2.1 update becuase it didn;t work correctly, but it works flawlessly on the EVO.

Thank you,

[EVO 4G Android Development] i700plus:
I am having a weird issue related to the new kernel release. When i set my cpu speed in setcpu to 1.1 ghz. I receive force closes on pretty much everyhing from internet browser to sense. I also get random. Reboots from the white boot screen. When i set the speed back to stock i have no problems whatsoever.

I flashed with clockwork recovery if that helps and wiped twice and dalvik cache.

Sent from my HTC Evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] EyeslikeOlives:
I'm stumped. Lol!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmlott:
Ok, I understand what you are saying now. This problem is interesting to me because you and I seem to have the same hardware and I am getting great battery life. As far as software differences and things to experiment with:

- I have both News and Weather sync completely disabled.

- I never turn on BT unless I need it (may look into your on-demand BT app)

- I keep my wifi on unless I know I am going away from signal, but I dont have it set to never sleep (does that keep the wifi radio on all the time?)

- I keep my GPS on always as well, though I did notice Latitude in maps was draining me, so I stopped that from constantly updating

I hope we can help you. I know how frustrating it was before I got this ROM and had my battery life doubled.
[EVO 4G Android Development] casual864:
I cannot get into the option. As I said earlier It Force Closes everytime I open that option up to turn off gmail sync.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lzlaxhacker:
sorry if you mentioned this already, I haven't been following this thread all that much that last few days, have you tried reseting your battery usage stats in recovery mode? I'd give it a shot if you haven't...it seems like most everything else has been tried. Again, sorry if you mentioned if you have already. good luck!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Casshern:
Just rolled out 9.6. Have been running since 7. Love it. Great work!

I have an intermittent data connection as of 9.6, but I think it's more something to do with the settings on my phone...

No complaints so far :)

I would like to see more Supersonic named articles though, vs "Evo."
[EVO 4G Android Development] JelloB:
Definitely required a dalvik-cache wipe at the least. I kept wondering why the kernel version wasn't updating in the software information. It kept showing up as 2.6.29....#8, after several flashes. I did a full wipe and re-flashed and now I'm finally getting the version ending with @Hero-Over #1.

Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rsh55:
I am a low user, 2 or 3 short calls a day, very little surfing, maybe 10 or so minutes of Sling, very little wifi, email update at 12 hours, 2 or less texts. I have the 1750 mah battery, I leave GPS, Network and all connections updating 24/7 but have deleted Facebook, Talk, and that other social crap and I can easily go three days without charging. I am at 37 hours now and 60% battery.

Google Goggles force close

Ok... I'm sorry if this has been posted. I swear I read through the forum and have seen that more than myself are having issues with Google Goggles. Mine force closes on me whenever I try to open it with 3G. If I have a wifi connection it opens and works just fine. I also noticed that when I turned on wifi and rebooted all of a sudden my visual voicemail worked. I wasn't aware that it didn't work until 3 voicemails rolled in. I hate checking voicemail so I don't really care but it is strange these things are effected by wifi.. Any ideas why or how I can fix it? It's in no way a deal breaker for me. Love the ROM! Battery life is awesome!
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrkmrk:
That's really interesting. I thought that I had fixed Goggles, but I suppose that it *does* only work on WiFi. Really, really odd. Further, I've still never gotten 4g to work :|.
[EVO 4G Android Development] traderofkind:
I don't even live in a 4G area. I have to pay 10 bucks a month just to be cool. Oh well.

Bootup Sound?

How would one go about installing a bootup sound with this ROM. I have 9.6 and it is running awesome. I tried pushing the sound to the /system/customize/resource folder like I've seen in many other posts but it still doesn't work. I pushed it as android_audio.mp3 and SPC_animation_final.mp3. I even saw another post about putting it in the /system/media and I tried that. Any help would be appreciated.

I am using ClockWork, not sure there is a battery stat wipe with that. Any other ways you know of doing other than loading a different recovery?

Ceger
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmlott:
ClockWork definitely has the battery stats wipe. I want to say it's under advanced, but I'm not 100% on that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lzlaxhacker:
yeah, jmlott has it correct. When Clockwork recovery first comes up, there is an advanced option, and wipe battery stats is under there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chumba8:
It is under advanced

[EVO 4G Android Development] lzlaxhacker:
Hey everyone, just wanted to post an update about the battery life on the setup I have been running. Currently, I'm running Baked Snack v.96 with ffolkes's newest undervolted kernel and its the best experience I've had so far. It is super fast, I can hit about 46fps on my novatek screen and under moderate usage(20min phone calls, texting, exchange/gmail set to as arrive, wifi on about 1/2 the time) I have only lost 4 bars of battery in 14hours. Absolutely ridiculous.

Any way to get the original kernal posted that came with 9.6?

I was trying a diff. kernal and want to go back to this one without doing a restore if possible.

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] masbirdies:
I did a nand backup...

and restored it to recovery the kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Wazzy:
I did look on the front page and have read through a lot of different threads but it didn't sink in on what exactly I was looking for. Also when I issued the dmesg command from abd it would scroll of the screen and as I'm still way new to Android and all this cool goodness I was hoping the helpful people here would help.

Thanks again. I have the Nova panel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] patelkedar91:
This should be in first post! There's also a red battery here if you search this thread.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thechosen1ji:
I had the same issue of the battery draining quickly and this last time i think i got the rom to install correctly without that issue. I installed v9 had the battery issue then i used rom manager to re flash and so far today its worked. I am sure i should have done this first but i kept switching to other roms right after flashing v9 cuz the battery drain was so bad i never bothered to reflash a second time. I hope it works for me this time cuz this rom is kick ass
[EVO 4G Android Development] Ceger:
Let me know if that worked for you. Not willing to just reflash again as a Hail Mary.

I actually think the issue might be that 4G is on even when it is turned off. That would certainly account for the battery issue. So I am investigating that avenue.

Unfortunately I am not getting voicemail notifications either. Visual Voicemail shows I have 0 voicemails also.

When I directly call my voicemail number though, they are there of course. :( This is the only problem I have found.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tarheelsmj12001:
has anyone figured out a fix or why wifi doesnt work?? i flashed the ROM twice n still is not working.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigheadwillie:
Is there any fix, or an upcoming fix, for the voicemail issues with this rom? I have tried everything listed in the forum, including wiping the phone and resintalling the rom. I still do not get voice mail notifications, nor do my voicemail show up in visual voice mail. this could be a problem for me since im on call all weekend as a systems admin for my company.

One thing i noticed is if i check for an upgrade in the settings of the visual voice mail program i get a general failure everytime..
[EVO 4G Android Development] tnt2sniper:
for some reason when I flashed I lost Google Navigation.. Anyone have the APK for this? I fully wiped so I'm not sure whats going on... Well I guess I lost the "Navigation" shortcut that's great for the car.. I used to have a blue arrow, now I don't.. I can still navigate through maps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] neilkarunatilaka:
Yes I have the same problem as reported earlier.

It seems there is no set in stone fix, as I've tried everything that was suggested to me on this thread, but nothing solved the issue. The only thing you can do is install and setup either Google Voice or YouMail as a workaround for your voicemail. For me personally, I cannot use Google Voice as I'm already using that as my Work # line, so I installed YouMail and set that up (its Free also).
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrkmrk:
WiFi and 4G both work for me. Running 9.6 with netarchy's latest kernel. Have navigation. Don't have goggles while connected to 3G, but with WiFi, it works. With 4G, it doesn't.

I believe it will only work on a stock dialer.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tx_jaycee:
Mine suddenly reappeared today??? You can try Navigation 2 Go as a free alternative in the market.

Try updating Google Maps (I'm sure that was suggested).
[EVO 4G Android Development] tx_jaycee:
Thanks. I know there were some .cab fixes for this in WinMo and wasn't sure if there was a similar fix in Android.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lzlaxhacker:
People who are having issues, can you please post more information about your phone? Information like hardware revision, kernel, and radio? That will help significantly when trying to diagnose and resolve your issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] neilkarunatilaka:
I've added this information to my signature. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] tx_jaycee:
I have too. :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmlott:
Yeah, the EPST codes dont work on this ROM. Hero_Over mentions that in the original post. He is trying to figure that out

Can you give us the info I have in my sig for your phone? Also, what version is your Voicemail software? I am not having an issue with mine at version 5.1.0.30 including checking for upgrade. It just says there is no upgrade available.

Hero. There are problems with bluetooth with this 9.6 build. I've been told by people that while on bluetooth conversations break up. Same bluetooth i've used for yrs without issues. Also used it on other phone. Also when bluetooth turn on it kills the data connection. No longer i can browse the internet in browser. Tried two different browsers. Not sure if that's in kernel source code or rom itself.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Hero_Over:
which kernel are you running. I am thinking of building my own clean source. is it the kernel i posted a couple days back?
[EVO 4G Android Development] the twanksta:
So we are able to do the updates via the phones system update panel without messing anything up?

I have updated my PRL this way, but am sort of afraid to try any of the other updates. Anybody have any answer for this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] stewie-droid:
Hero NO. I went back to your 9.6 build after wipes. Issues with bluetooth i am having is on build 9.6 with it's build in kernel source. I did wipes of cache, halvik and then data and reflashed but that did not help.

As a separate observation relating to super-kernel you posted few days ago did not integrate well with your build. Here are few things i noticed about super-kernel. BTW your build in 9.6 is better IMO besides the bluetooth issue.

1. Superkernel you posted runs CPU at higher % then your's in 9.6 build.

Not sure if it's undervolt or stock volt. Either case even at 128MHZ when its sleeps runs at least 2x higher CPU then yours in bulild 9.6.

Was using it at max of 614mhz as with yours. Cpu works at higher %. Same app setup.

2. Seems to drain battery faster even at 128MHZ sleep speed, probably due to mentioned above

3. Kernel breaks facebook. Can not post comments to facebook. Facebook runs but connection error occurs. Did fresh flash twice and gave up.

Also another separate issue i think once in a while i was also having registration error with sprint: Data call failure: "Error Code 67: registration failure. Press ok for options. Your PCS vision username and/or password may be incorrect. Please try again." I think that is happening on both 9.6 and after super kenel flash.

Btw what do you think about battery life on my evo?

On left it's "super-kernel" before break . ON right it's 9.6 build kernel. Notice % cpu.
