So the easiest way would be to either update when flipz updates the fresh rom to 2.2 or could i unroot then install the OTA update just to try it out without bricking my phone?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SilentSummer:
Either wait till Fresh is update with 2.2 or use another ROM running 2.2.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dudleyfire:
I doubt this will be available in the Fresh Updater as it is a completely different rom as your EVO will have to be completely wiped and flashed from the recovery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wuclan48:
If you like root don't unroot. You can't wait a week to have a rooted and better version of the update? I have no problem waiting for a Fresh rom. I'd wait a month if that's how long it took.
[EVO 4G Android Development] godfirst:
But what about just unrooting to try the OTA update out, is that possible?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dudleyfire:
Yes it is if your are that impatient. Also this OTA update will be patched with new root protection and you will have to wait for a new root procedure. Your best bet is to just wait.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SilentSummer:
Not recommended. I'm sure there will be a Stock 2.2 ROM out shortly after the udpate that you can flash.
[EVO 4G Android Development] godfirst:
Well you have a point there! More then likely I'm just going to wait because I'm digging the root and especially having the fresh rom w/ the Riptide9 theme. Thanks guys for all the feedback.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lath19:
...and it will be well worth the wait. No way I'm losing root to have an official 2.2 update a week early.
[EVO 4G Android Development] godfirst:
Now you say there will be a new root procedure, but that would be for those that have the OTA update and not for those who are already rooted and waiting for new roms to come out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dudleyfire:
That is correct. Be patient and a rooted modified update will be available from Flipz and others.
[EVO 4G Android Development] godfirst:
The kernal you have running with this rom what differences have you seen compared to the kernal that comes with fresh 1.01?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dudleyfire:
Improved speed and no 30FPS cap. Plus overclocking is unlocked. I am getting 53FPS and an overall speed increase without sacrificing stability. I did have stability issues when I was taking advantage of the overclock unlock with certain apps so I discontinued using setCPU. I am quite happy with this kernel and would recommend it to anyone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] godfirst:
So basically the advantage you happen to have with the kernal now is just FPS adjust. So as far as not overclocking your evo any more is there a difference in the speed with setCPU disabled compared to the kernel that comes with fresh?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dahray02:
isnt that the same as the fresh toast kernel?

http://geekfor.me/new-release/fresh-toast-experimental/
[EVO 4G Android Development] dudleyfire:
Speed improvements have been made in other areas as well not just the FPS unlock.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dahray02:
really? hmm, would doing a backup in titanium backup then restoring the data still work...i do that when i do a full wipe, i reinstall all the apps with appbrain, then i restore the app data with titanium backup and its always worked...i wonder will that be the case with this froyo release
[EVO 4G Android Development] dudleyfire:
No but it is based on toast/GoDmOdE kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dudleyfire:
Possibly but not likely. For a flawless running phone it is always better to start from scratch and just reinstall all your apps from the Downloads section in the Market after signing into your Google account.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dahray02:
yea i reinstall the apps from the market..but to get all the to the same settings they had before i restore the app data from titanium backup...are u saying thats wrong to do?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dudleyfire:
Not unless you experience problems. Titanium Backup is a great app but I have seen force closes on my Hero and decided to discontinue its usage. Having to re-inter user names and passwords is a small price to pay for a stable phone. I would recommend using it in moderation.
[EVO 4G Android Development] preppybeats:
Can anyone direct me to a thread on the amazon mp3 app? With the fresh Rom it won't let me login to pay for music.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jtc442:
Ok, stupid question, I read and couldn't find. Came over from cyan 6 to give this Rom a shot, but how do I get launcher pro working?
[EVO 4G Android Development] lath19:
Did you install the app from your SD card? Fresh puts all of the removed apk's on the SD card. Browse to the 'Fresh-Removed-Apks' folder using a ES File Explorer and click on the amazon app.
[EVO 4G Android Development] preppybeats:
Yeah I tried that, when u go into settings, sign out is blanked out. Usually when u start for the first time, it usually it asks you to login, but upon install, no license agreement just straight to the program.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MedSchool26:
Total newb to this scene :)

Hey guys,

I'm a total newb to this scene. Just got my first android phone (Evo) and am definitely interested in rooting/new rom/etc.

So please excuse my ignorance when I ask: What are the best roms out there for the Evo?

Thanks and again, sorry for the newb-ness :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] SharkUW:
Wrong forum.
[EVO 4G Android Development] FattySparks:
Thanks for posting this. It worked perfectly!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Reanimatedshad0w:
Should we be looking forward to a fresh froyo build? :) I always enjoyed your roms.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Nacomoon:
2 options that i know of:

1. Go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>HTC Sense and then clear everything(data, cache, default). After that click the home button and you should get an option to chose your launcher.

2. Just download Home Switcher and run it to pick Launcher Pro and make it the default home.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dwntwnall4u:
Just noticed that my wi-fi says "unable to start" any ideas to fix this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jtc442:
awesome, thank you for the response. I'll give it a shot in a bit.
[EVO 4G Android Development] shad0w77:
did u flash a custom kernal?

if not, did u update to flipz's radio and wimax versions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] akarol:
Flipz, hope you're prepared for 2.2 baby!
[EVO 4G Android Development] a5ehren:
He's going to do one (probably after the official full RUU is out), but he's working on finishing the Fresh Kitchen according to his twitter.
[EVO 4G Android Development] godfirst:
So what exactly is fresh kitchen
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
Rom builder. Check out his website for an explanation. He has one for the hero.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tkrechel:
Basically a program that runs on your pc and removes a lot of the things you normally need to do with adb commands. It's set up in an idiot proof button clickable interface and makes pushing pulling files, installing apks and all that jazz really simple for people
[EVO 4G Android Development] d0m1n0:
I have the same issue...has there been a resolution? looks like the topic dropped after others said they don't have that issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dahray02:
i only had this happen once...and i checked my networks settings and it was showing that i was disconnected from the sprint network...i connected rebooted and it never happened again
[EVO 4G Android Development] d0m1n0:
Wow, I'm bad, guess I should have just tried stuff before posting. Cleared gmail data, let it sync, sent a test message successfully.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mwbarb:
This happened to me also and I went into settings/manage applications/gmail and cleared cache. Rebooted my phone and made sure all my wireless connections were working and was able to send emails again through gmail.
[EVO 4G Android Development] furrelkt:
Remove the app and re do it.. works. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] godfirst:
Could you post the website url for me thank you.
[EVO 4G Android Development] flipzmode:
http://geekfor.me/new-release/fresh-kitchen-105/

That's the one for the hero, don't try using it for the evo. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] lath19:
Flipz said via twitter that he was already working in a froyo version which he is now scrapping. I'm assuming he'll release a new fresh once the froyo ruu is available.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dwntwnall4u:

problems getting back to stock rom

I am having problems getting back o stock rom I did the ruu exe and it says wrong bootloader?? I have fresh 1.01 and the new radios. Any suggestions? please help I need to return my phone and I cant have it rooted:(
[EVO 4G Android Development] benshtc:
Does anyone bother using the overclock widget on this rom or is that not really a necessity anymore? I have been using fresh for awhile, actually fresh is the only custom rom I've ever flashed to my evo and I've always used but then I read somewhere that overclocking would kill your battery. I guess I was just wondering because fresh 1.0.1 doesn't seem to have as long a life as 0.53. I know this is all moot at this point especially with the 2.2 Froyo update and all which I can't wait for the Fresh release when it is ready!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] iTouch24:
i know Flipz is working on his kitchen but i wonder when he will drop his 2.2 ROM version .. has anyone heard anything?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dudleyfire:
Based on his Tweets possibly some time today.
[EVO 4G Android Development] notown775:
Im running the avafroyo ... and I love it. But waiting on flipz.. I assume sometime mid today... or the end of the night. And then its a waiting game for the kernel to be released...

sent from my Satan phone
[EVO 4G Android Development] fazzmanic:
Flipz was up all night messing with the Fresh Evo Kitchen. He has his hands on the Froyo release from HTC but is taking a much needed (and deserved) nap. He will be back in action later this afternoon.

Can't wait to taste me some Flipz Froyo. (nohomo)
[EVO 4G Android Development] wuclan48:
Lots of people including myself are overclocking this rom. If you set it to scale when the screen is on and underclock when the screen is off battery life its still great.

BETA IS out! Check your emails :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] plmiller0905:
Nothing in my email
[EVO 4G Android Development] Reanimatedshad0w:
Just downloaded mine:(

I guess send him an email?
[EVO 4G Android Development] carguy4471:
Donated, got my email. Will be flashing after work. Me'z a happy camper!!

Thanks Flipz!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] godfirst:
How is the beta? Where you able to flash it on top of the rooted froyo without doing a wipe and reinstalling the radio and wimax? Chances of sharing the beta? I really enjoyed having fresh 1.0.1 on my phone, can't wait to see his 2.2 version.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mikevillarroel:
not much!

I just donated my 2 cent too Flipz, thanks for all your dedication!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tkrechel:
then donate or wait. people aren't gonna share it cause that would be rude to flipz. if you like his work support him and then you get the beta the "right" way
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rippley05:
Beta is out to doners right now, I just donated and got it myself so I will be checking it out later.

Some people hate the "beta for doners only" thing, but I love it...these guys don't set any minimum and deserve to be compensated at least a little for the hard/great work they put in.
[EVO 4G Android Development] godfirst:
where do you go to donate?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rippley05:
Go to the bottom of the very first page, there is a donate button.

You can use paypal or go straight with your card. Be sure to enter your correct email info at the bottom, within a few minutes or so..you will get some emails with instructions, follow them...good luck with beta :D

Can someone confirm if this beta is based off of 2.2 or 2.1?
[EVO 4G Android Development] godfirst:
what's a good amount to donate?
[EVO 4G Android Development] gx1400:
As much as you're willing to part with. I donated $15 right before the 1.01beta1 was released.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Reanimatedshad0w:
I still can't get the damm tether to work. Everything else seems great :)

Great job
[EVO 4G Android Development] godfirst:
Thanks for the help!
[EVO 4G Android Development] plmiller0905:
So since i donated, do i have to send a donation everytime after this....I mean is it mandatory to send a donation for all future betas released from Flipz?
[EVO 4G Android Development] gx1400:
Not if you don't want to. Once you donate, you're on his donor listserv.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mecha2142:
No, once you've donated, you get to subscribe to flipz's private email thingy, which will alert you whenever a new beta/donor file is released, along with a private download link. It's a one time only donation for access to all betas, but you CAN donate more if you want.
[EVO 4G Android Development] plmiller0905:
Cool....Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] notown775:
Downlading now :):d:d

EDIT:

Donated again.. LOL
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejpyle:
After I watched my battery improve by nearly 40% (maybe more) after the last update I realized I needed to donate. Hope it's enough Flipz. Thanks for your talents!
[EVO 4G Android Development] timtlm:
Running the new beta. My google contacts aren't sycning. I go to accounts and sync, and google is there, but there's no option for syncing contacts. Just gmail and calendar. This makes this pretty much unusable for me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] david279:
Same for me. Oh well..can't use this...
[EVO 4G Android Development] plmiller0905:
Same here....:confused:

I had this issue with Ava's rom and I reflashed it and it worked. So I'm goingto give that a try
[EVO 4G Android Development] koricua74:
+1 on this issue
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vegasden:
Ditto...no contacts.
[EVO 4G Android Development] plmiller0905:
Nope...no contacts...reflashing doesn't work either.
[EVO 4G Android Development] firsttimer44:
same problem
[EVO 4G Android Development] 702DROID:
flip knows hes working on it right now
[EVO 4G Android Development] toenail78:
i just flashed and my contacts are syncing... haha im kidding, not really but you know what i mean..
[EVO 4G Android Development] tkrechel:
yeah there is the contact issue, and also the htc widgets, the new ones dont install or show up. did you remove the ones you had in the 2.1 rom? I really liked that task widget :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] lamboh:
If coming from another 2.2 Rom(Ava) do I have to wipe data and cache ? Downloading fresh ego 3 beta now....thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] fifoloveritas:
Ditto.

Off it goes. Oh well. Still appreciate the work, just needs a little time to cook.
[EVO 4G Android Development] koricua74:
Thanks for the update
[EVO 4G Android Development] 702DROID:
found the problem fix will be out in a few :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] enormous:
I just got Fresh3beta1 flashed and setup on my phone. Flipz mentioned that we could flash an update to 3 without a wipe. Since I haven't done this before... does that mean my data and apps will remain, and just the underlying OS elements are updated? I'm guessing this is the case, but want to double check.
[EVO 4G Android Development] notown775:
i restored all my contancts. All you have to do is log into your gmail account. click on your contacts tab on the left side of the page, click on export on the top right and export as a vcard. take what you just downloaded and up loaded it to your phone's sd card. And under your people folder hit menu then import.

now you have your contacts back.. so its no longer not useless. :)

you wont have all the pics you had on em before, but it should hold us down till he fixes it :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] fazzmanic:
Thanks for dedicating your saturday to your evo followers! Hopefully today proves to be a big day for you monetarily.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejpyle:
Just got the beta and it won't install

I did a full data wipe and when it gets to "Copying Files" the following message is generated.

Copying files...
E:Can't symlink /system/bin/cat
E:Failure at line 11:
symlink toolbox SYSTEM:bin/cat

Installation aborted

So now I have a phone without a ROM. Does anyone who donated have a work around for this or will I be able to go back to the previous Flipz ROM I was running?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Reanimatedshad0w:
I usually wipe everything twice

2x data

2x cache

2x dav

I guess try that, redownload the rom and flash again
[EVO 4G Android Development] N00dle:
Google contacts is being fixed right now.

I know it says the radios are only for 2.2 but can we flash back to 1.1 without downgrading the radios?
[EVO 4G Android Development] fazzmanic:
Patch for contacts just released to donors.

PAY THAT MAN SOME MONEY!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejpyle:
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried that and it did not work out. I am now downloading the most recent beta Flipz just sent out. If that does not work then I will go back to the previous one. Battery life was so awesome on it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tallen:
I second that...I am going to have to donate again...FLIPZfor President...Thanks Flipz for looking out for us.

[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
Beta2 is available for download for those that recieved the invite for the first. I guess its common knowledge now. you flash the udpate or flash the entire new rom, both require complete wipe

make sure your fully rooted and have armon ra recovery and flash it that way

Is there another radio version I should be updated to or is mine right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] fatboypup:
ive installed both betas never got the removed apks folder created on my SD card i acutally use some of that stuff can you put a link up to them Id actually like the new FM radio
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
Me too, i use RA recovery for the most part. I had issues with Clockwork when i first started, probably because i didn't have true root and NAND unlock, so i have always been nervous when flashing things even though it was probably my fault
[EVO 4G Android Development] tallen:
I believe you need to update to 1.47 radio and then apply the Beta Froyo. You can get the radio at geekfor.me
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
what are your Quad and Linpack scores?

Having problems with root apps not working correctly like SetCPU, Titanium Backup, and Cachemate (which doesn't show in the market)?
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
Same here. They do seem to get root, but it takes a long time, and usually they fc before that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tkrechel:
yeah having issues with root apps also, root explorer is a main culprit. have to keep restarting it. i'm not sure if its the rom or the new SU program causing this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] appzattak:
Superuser just seems to take a while. I tired SUFBS and Root Explorer and they FC, but then openeed Superuser permissions and they finally asked for the permsiion and are good now....just delayed at first

Anyone running 3.0 b2 can check to see if they can locate Pure Calendar Widget in the market?

I have purchased this but it's not showing up in the market...
[EVO 4G Android Development] jeffthebeast:
ive been running beta 2 for the past few hours and everything is working great. no fc on titanium, root explorer or anything else atm. also i can see pure calender widget in marketplace. i did a full wipe of everything twice coming from fresh 1.0
[EVO 4G Android Development] v1pe:
hmm, I came from CM6 but I did a full wipe + cache + dalvik

flashed b2 and both radios...

oddly my google market acct didn't sync up like it should, but maybe that's because HTC has disabled it as I noticed they crippled the google search app so it can't search through your contacts like it will in CM6

blah I don't want to re-flash to see pure calendar widget :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] ffyter:
I am on beta 2 and google voice search force closes anyone else?
[EVO 4G Android Development] v1pe:
yep, same for me
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
settings - search - searchable items - check all the boxes that you want to apply

same here on the FC on google voice search

anybody having an issue where the sense weather/clock is in the wrong city...

mine is showing as Orange Park, Florida however im in Jacksonville

the other thing i noticed is that the sense clock is 1 minute off from the clock in the status bar... I had to click the sense clock then toggle the "use network-provided values" to get them back synced...

everything else seems to be working pretty good tho

thanks flipz
