In order for apps2sd to work I believe you have to have an ext partition on your sdcard, you'll want to search on the forums to find a guide on how to do that.

At the moment moving apps 2 sd is something of a hack, though an official type of apps 2 sd is in froyo (though apps have to have support for it enabled).

Just use the built in Android Power Widget, and hit the screen brightness button. If the transition is instant = Epson, if it fades into the new transition = Novateck
[EVO 4G Android Development] kevinniven:
novateck

Looks like i have Novateck. is Epson the better screen? thx
[EVO 4G Android Development] thecodemonk:
"Better" is definitely up for opinion. Some think the colors are closer to true and value that more on the epson...others like the brightness of the Novatec's.

Epson = LCD (Super-LCD?)

Novatech = OLED

Do a bit of homework and see what you like better...the difference, in the end, is not huge to most people. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] EtherealRemnant:
Where did you get the info that the Nova is OLED?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrkmrk:
I have a Novatek, and judging by the brightness level of the blacks in a dark room, it's certainly not an OLED.
[EVO 4G Android Development] EtherealRemnant:
That's what I thought. They're both LCD. As far as Super-LCD, isn't that a Sony tech?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tkrechel:
This is the biggest false statement I have ever read heh
[EVO 4G Android Development] EtherealRemnant:
Really? I thought the official Froyo on July 5th was the biggest false statement I've ever read ;)

Anyway, since I've had both...

The Nova panel has a purple tint to it, which is barely noticeable unless you get an Epson screen to compare it with. The Nova does not get as bright as the Epson. The Nova brightness fades while the Epson brightness changes instantly. The FPS fix for Nova panels does not cause screen tearing and is adjustable by user. The Epson panel takes longer to power on and off when the device is booting and shutting down than the Nova does. The Nova comes on instantly to the HTC screen, the Epson turns backlit black for a second and then the HTC screen appears. It also does the same thing when powering off.

The Epson is INSANELY bright at maximum settings. It is so bright it hurts my eyes. It is LITERALLY like sunlight and I can see the screen better in sunlight than I could with the Nova.

Color reproduction is perfect on the Epson which can be a pro or a con. Some people prefer vivid, non-realistic color saturation which the Nova provides.

Also, and I can't say this isn't related to something else, I am getting better battery life (about 30% or so) with the Epson than I did with my Nova but this is a 0003 and my Nova was a 0002.

no bueno for this update. i was using the general population 3.7.3c no OC and was averaging 51-52 FPS. now with 3.7.4 DC compatible kernel i'm getting 39FPS.

gonna try the general pop build and if that doesn't speed it back up then i'm reverting back to my old download. thanks! :)

Running 7.3.4, both common and Fresh and the phone instantly reboots when trying to run ANY camera app. This is a major issue.

I am unable to reproduce said crashes. What baseband are you on? If you try the default fresh kernel since you are in fresh, do you still get instability?

When you first installed fresh, did you do a full wipe first?

Testing 7.3.4 on Fresh 1.0.1 w/JIT enabled - no FC's with Camera nor Camcorder apps. I believe there was an HTCAlbum.apk issue with Fresh earlier in the release betas. Try reflashing the rom (not wiping data), then reflashing 7.3.4 netarchy kernel.

JJust went back to default fresh kernel and everything works just fine. Reflashed back to 7.4.7 Fresh and issues immediately kicked in.

When I installed Fresh 1.0.1 a week ro two back, I did a cleanly wiped install, so it has all the latest and greatest, no known issues.

Might try uninstalling Vignette and see if the problems persist.

[EVO 4G Android Development] netarchy:
If it happens again, try lowering the max speed and seeing if your stability improves. Overclocking by nature can be a bit finicky (not to mention it eats more battery ;D).
[EVO 4G Android Development] tehpsyc:
In regards to this change:

- Updated bluetooth code, courtesy of cyanogenmod

(You may have to re-pair your bluetooth devices)

Does this mean it has the same bluetooth stack that the cyanogen rom has allowing the pairing of HID devices?

No sadly, the bluetooth stack is separate from the kernel, and gimped by htc. I am looking into whether it's possible to update the stack as a side project atm (yes, I also want to use a wiimote ;D).

Audio tweak causes serious static when using the phone. Volume is much louder true, but quality isn't very good.

Edit: Inbound is staticy. Person on the other side of the call said the sound quality is much better.
[EVO 4G Android Development] netarchy:
Really now, hrmm, regular usage or bluetooth?

Does it go away if you turn the volume down a notch or two? It could be that the max gain in the tweak is just a touch too high (which can be fixed).

Ok, when you wipe the "Dalvik-cache" in recovery mode like you are saying to do, that won't screw up the ROM I'm running right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] PeoplesHelper:
not static,distorted.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kevyli85:
My Plantronics Pro sounds more distorted now. I'm not sure if its the new bluetooth stack or the audio tweak. Handset sounds great though =/
[EVO 4G Android Development] netarchy:
The bluetooth stack wasn't changed at all, that's not in the kernel code. The kernel stuff is driver related. ;D

As for the audio stuff, it can be adjusted a bit. Distortion implies that the gain is a bit too high, so next build will probably tone it down a touch.

There's probably some variance with speakers between phones, as on my phone with or without bluetooth I don't get the distortion.

Ideally you shouldn't *have* to run your volume at full to have good audio.
[EVO 4G Android Development] reallynotnick:
Maybe it's just me but I feel like after going from 3.6.4 to 3.7.3c I have been getting worse battery life, I can't say for sure as I haven't done an A B comparison but I know I used to be able to use my phone for 4 hours of awake time a day (before the kernel) and now it seems to be only 3. If no one else seems to be getting worse battery life than with the stock kernel/older versions than it might just be my usage is different, but just thought I should throw it out there.

*called uptime awake time
[EVO 4G Android Development] Doward:
Any word on exactly how HTC went about locking the 30fps?
[EVO 4G Android Development] PeoplesHelper:
volume up or down to me still has it. I have one person i call back an forth to see if it was the case...a still get the distortion I flash .3/.4/.3/..... it is tweated a little high.
[EVO 4G Android Development] netarchy:
3-4 ??? I think you have something else goin on if all you're gettin is 3-4 hours of uptime.

Have you run any kind of monitoring app to see what processes are eating up the most cpu time? (Setcpu has one, but I don't believe there's a free version on the market)

Are you overclocking?

If you bring up the battery stats on your phone, what stuff has the highest percentages in the list?

Do you keep stuff like gps, bluetooth, and 4g, and wifi on all the time?

Do you have apps that sync often?
[EVO 4G Android Development] netarchy:
We don't know exactly where they put the cap, but we haven't managed to find it in the kernel source, which leads me to believe it's probably being set in the radio.

Unfortunately the radio is the one place no dev want's to mess with. Screwing up a radio is pretty much the one way to permabrick the phone. This leaves us having to work around it.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Doward:
Very interesting... I'm certain I'm late to the party as it were, but dropping a quick "grep -lr "HTC" /path/to/source > htc_files.txt, then searching through the files listed shows that HTC's got their hands deep in here.

Curiously, though, I found under include/linux/htc_hdmi.h there's an enumerated HDMI mode of 'mirror' and 'presentation'. Otherwise, lots of information on the timings, but I've just started to dig through the source code.

Either way, I'd love to know exactly which files are being compiled and utilized on the stock Evo 4G kernel. From a programming standpoint, I'm having a really hard time trying to find out why the hell HTC didn't just do a simple fork - HDMI enabled = 30fps lock, HDMI disabled = unlocked.

[EVO 4G Android Development] SilverZero:
Yeah, me too. Any particular reason my battery life is abysmal after flashing this kernel yesterday (3.7.3c)? I charged to 100%, wiped my battery stats, ran the battery empty, then charged again . . . and I've gone down 30% in the one hour that it's been unplugged. Using Fresh 1.0.1, normal usage (3G browsing, full bars).

Do I need SetCPU to get anything out of this kernel, or to cancel this ridiculous battery drain? Because I don't have it. Before flashing, I could go two days without charging pretty routinely. I love the smoothness of the new kernel, so I'd really like to get the battery savings that are being talked about as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:

[EVO 4G Android Development] RTC88:
I think its just me, but this kernel is running choppy for me. I am using DC 3.2.3. It gets better averages in fps2d but noticeably choppy. When I run 3.7.3c kernel it's much smoother. Anyone else have this problem? I also have nova screen FYI.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tj.iscool:
how u run fps2d?
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
Both. Tried it on BT, then switched.

I thought it was a volume issue too. Turned it half way down and still had the static.
[EVO 4G Android Development] reallynotnick:
:o

I miss typed, meant to say awake time. So I get like 3 hours of awake time with 16 hours of uptime.

I really haven't found a great battery monitor (don't see one in setcpu unless I am missing something) but using the built in one I have cell standby 30%, Phone idle 28%, Android System 20% Wi-Fi 8%, Screen 7% and then maps dialer and voice calls add up to 7%.

It sounds like cell standby includes mobile data so I understand that being high, I just feel phone idle is still really high maybe that's normal I even have it so when the screen is off it won't go above 460mhz (I suppose I could lower it but I don't see the phone spending much time at that speed so I don't think it is ramping up when it is inactive. I did overclock it recently to 1.15ghz because I saw it was only a 2% voltage increase for a 15% speed boost I figured worst case senario I lose 2% of my battery best case I get better battery because it can get stuff done faster and ramp down the processor.

GPS, BT and 4G are off all the time unless I need to find directions then I turn GPS on. Also WiFi is typically left one because I spend a lot of time in Wi-Fi but I have it set to sleep Wi-Fi after 15mins.

None of my apps automatically sync, although it seems my contacts sync as soon as I turn on my phone even though it is off, don't really mind that though.

I'm going to keep playing with it, but if I am obviously doing something wrong I wouldn't mind a tip. But like I said could be me just using my phone differently some how or something totally unrelated to your kernel.

I'll take your word for it :-p

Quick question: is there anything in the Kernel source that would allow more relaxed proximity sensor parameters? or even force it to disable when using bluetooth the same way it does when on speakerphone? It's way too sensitive in-call.
