Yes the idea is you didn't bother to read the main page and follow directions but since you're to lazy to and I'm in a good mood. Wipe your data and it will be fixed
[EVO 4G Android Development] neodorian:
Yeah, I guess that's it. I'm just lazy. Thanks for letting me know so I can kindly feck off and not waste your precious time any longer.

BTW, I did wipe everything before flashing this ROM but thanks anyway.

Slacker Problem

Is anyone else having problems streaming slacker, pandora, or iHeart Radio? It seems like the first song loads up fine and then nothing else works.
[EVO 4G Android Development] criccio:
FYI, this is answered a million times in this thread and the old one. Not to mention its addressed in the release logs on geekfor.me. Clearly you didn't read everything Flipz told you to... :mad:
[EVO 4G Android Development] evozx3:
I've read through most of this thread and havent really found this issue yet.

I was listening to pandora last night, texting back and forth with someone and the phone just restarts on its own. It gets to the fresh boot screen and just hangs there. So I pull the battery after a few minutes of that and it reboots to the white htc evo screen and hangs there. I did that a few times, each time hanging on the htc screen, so I booted in to recovery and did a nandroid restore which fixed it.

Any idea why it would do this? It did it once while I had fresh 0.5.3 and also now with 1.0.1. Both using fresh toast kernel no bfs.
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Thanks for the tip - radio is what's causing the loop. Working fine now. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] tkrechel:
In the first post it gives TWO reasons and two reasons only why it would boot loop and that is not wiping data coming from any rom other than 0.5.3 fresh OR you're not nandroid unlocked. That is all that can cause that, so you tell us which is it?

Edit: And I'm sorry if I was a **** but seeing the SAME questions asked 5 times a day gets old. this thread in reality shouldn't be much longer than 10 pages of issues that have nothing to do with items in the main post
[EVO 4G Android Development] _Burst_:
amen to that. the threads wouldn't be so long to read if there wasn't a repeat question every 3rd post.

>_<
[EVO 4G Android Development] ktulu909:
Actually I just caused a loop in another fashion.Started off with full wipe,flashed 1.0.1,did not restart,flashed netarchy/toastmod kernal,did not restart and then flashed enamoRED theme.That makes for a nice little boot loop.Its all good now though.Didnt think I should have let the phone do a full boot before flashing the theme.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kenjari:
I'm just a lil confused. I just flashed the newest ROM, 1.0.1...and I'm trying to flash the newest RADIO and WIIMAX in OP. But every time I flash (using CLOCK) the zip of the radio I'm not upgrading. It remains the same radio I had on .5.3.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

I'm also trying to flash Amon-RA....but I'm stuck with Clockwork? WTF.:confused:

ROM manager I upgraded to the latest Clockwork twice, but I didnt know it was permanent. How do I get Amon-RA?....tryed to OP method (link) and that didnt work either.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BB15:
Download the AR image onto the root of your SD. Open Rom Manager and select 'flash alternate recovery image' (this will make Rom Manager useless).
[EVO 4G Android Development] chumba8:
Under cwr rom manager there is an option to flash amrons recovery too try that
[EVO 4G Android Development] chumba8:
My area doesnt like the new raido at all so i am using the other one on 1.0.1 and it works fine
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kenjari:
I actually tried both methods....and still having trouble. I truly appreciate your responses. I will try BB15 suggestion again. And see if that works. Whats happening is that when I go into bootloader now....I hit recovery and it takes me to FASTBOOT. There is know recovery now.

Um stuck.....any help with be appreciated.

Thanks

[EVO 4G Android Development] Mikedick:
Flashed over and works no problems except for the tether that was fixxed by uninstalling it and reinstalling from the market. No custom kernel, just installed a class 6 on install and partitioned for the first time. Apps2sd worked flawlessly.

Still using original clockwork recovery from rooting, coming from Damage 3.2.3. Love the rom, outstanding work Flipz.
[EVO 4G Android Development] My1es:
Sorry if this has been covered but I skimmed the thread and searched but didn't see anything. I'm having trouble with my data connection. Getting an error message when I'm going into the market and browser. I haven't even bothered to try 4G since it's not the greatest in my area. I flashed the latest 1.0.1, radio and wimax in that order.

If it matters:

Baseband - 2.05.00.05.10

Software - 1.47.651.1

Kernal - 2.6.29-789bf291

Also after flashing the rom my Vinilla lock went back to HTC style. Is that normal?

Thanks ahead!
[EVO 4G Android Development] DrDarwin:
This is going to sound completely counter intuitive, but try downgrading your radio. I updated my wife's EVO to fresh 1.01, new radio, and new wimax she immediately started having some pretty strange (and annoying) data/cell network connection problems.

I reverted back to the last radio version, and not only is her mobile connection healthy again, but I've had no problems with anything else as a result.

I hope that helps...
[EVO 4G Android Development] My1es:
What radio did you flash to? This has been the first time I'm upgrading radios.

EDIT: Strange everything just started working all of the sudden.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Reanimatedshad0w:

[EVO 4G Android Development] Dubez:
Pretty stable rom for the most part. A few questions tho, what is the difference between this rom, and the rom that was personally emailed to people who donated? Also, my battery life is in the toilet, I was hoping that flashing to this rom would alleviate some of the battery issues. Lastly, I have am constantly killing apps, and I am constantly seeing apps open that i never touched, ie. fring, camera, music. How do I get this to stop... Thanks for you any help guys...
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmanley69:
Closing apps and not letting the OS shut them down is really a bad thing to do and can leave your phone unstable until the next boot (and sometimes suck battery because the programs didn't fully shut down).

As for the apps that you never started... that's a side effect of using compcache (as is lower battery life) since the OS doesn't think it needs to shut down the apps because it has more than enough memory. 2 choices - 1) ignore those running apps or 2) stop using compcache
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sab3r One:
Is anyone else having issues with the phone denying a call after you pick it up to answer it? I have the phone set to reduce the volume when I move it to answer it, but if it is in my pocket and I try to take it out to answer it, it denies the call. Is this exclusive to me?
[EVO 4G Android Development] alvintimothyjr:
I'm not able to use WiFi tether (android) the program simply says "cannot tether" Great Rom nonetheless! Best one I've used....expect a donation from me on Friday yo..
[EVO 4G Android Development] criccio:
Not a problem with the ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Dubez:
So in other words your telling me to stop using ATK? What is compcache?

Thanks for your feedback also...
[EVO 4G Android Development] ltracte:
i wiped everything, followed the instructions exactly. at first it seemed ok, but then the glitches started happening the next day
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmanley69:
RE not closing apps with a memory manager: I wish I had the blog that explained it... or maybe it was a post on xda.

RE compcache: it uses part of your flash memory as a RAMdisk and then uses that ramdisk as a memory swap file. It's kinda like taking Windows swap file in that it gives you more memory to work with. The problem is that the OS doesn't close non-running apps until either the app closes on its own or the RAM drops below a certain threshold. With compcache, you have more memory so through normal use, apps aren't killed. The down side of that is that these apps reside in a swapfile on your flash memory (sometimes - sometimes it's running apps) and it uses more battery to read and write from that flash memory than the faster RAM. ---- In a nutshell.
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
I second this. Everyone saying that this rom is buggy, you must be doing something differently then the rest of us. I've been running this rom since release. No reboots, no problems whatsoever. I know its not very informative, but just a bump that the rom is very stable
[EVO 4G Android Development] Dubez:
I very much appreciate you feedback, but i am TOTALLY confused now...

So ATK is a memory manager, not a task killer?

and compcache I must use unwillingly because I've never seen it...
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmanley69:
memory manager = task killer. It "manages" memory by killing tasks and freeing up memory.

compcache is enabled in this ROM. I disabled it by remounting system as rw and then rm /system/etc/init.d/compcache.sh
[EVO 4G Android Development] Dubez:
Ok, so would you recommend disabling compcache, and what for a task manager?

Sent from Fresh Evo 0.5.3 via Tapatalk
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmanley69:
I choose not to make recommendations too much... I can only say what I do. I don't use task manager/memory manager/task killer - let the OS do what it does. I don't use compcache. By doing those two things, I have found that any ROM I use is more stable and I tend to have a bit better battery life.

Great info J, greatly appreciated...

Hey guys...Since you are talking about items that use the memory card

IE: compcache...

I'm about to Swap out mIcroSD cards and wonder:

If I simply go to settings>SD & Phone storage>Unmount SD Card

Can I then safely shut down and just install the new

EMPTY

SD card and re-boot?

I see a ton of directory's on my SD card and am curious what is going to "break" unless I copy everything over. Is this stuff typically data for installed apps?

I'm about to give Apps2SD a go and need to upgrade to a new Class 6 card.

Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] napoleontheruler:
hey im rooted and running fresh 1.0 but when i god to my phone info it says build not set
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmanley69:
Nothing should fully break with an empty SD card. You will lose all your pictures and music if you don't copy them over (obviously). Some programs store their data and/or cache files on the SD card, so you may lose game levels in certain games, or crosswords in Shortyz (for example).

It shouldn't hurt at all to copy the stuff to the new card. The easiest way I've found is to hook the phone up to your computer, mount the SD as a drive (either through normal boot or Amon-Ra's recovery), copy everything off, swap the card, format (if you're going to use apps2sd then do this from Recovery and partition it correctly the first time), then mount it as a drive and copy everything back on.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Land Master:
THANKS! This was the exact procedure I was contemplating.. Always nice to get a 2nd opinion.

I am a little concerned because I am about to try this using the netarchy kernel and it has known issues with Apps2SD. I don't know if anyone has actually tried it with a Class 6 or higher card so I'm giving that a go. Netarchy has also offered a potential tweak (or un-tweak in this case) that may help. See the kernel thread if interested.

Thanks again!

Anyone else not able to get Flash 10.1 or any flash working for that matter? I installed the 10.1 apk found on the forums and I used to have it working I'm not sure if it was on fresh 0.5.3 or a different ROM but now I cant browse any websites with flash content and when I go to whatismyflash.com it says flash isn't installed. Any help would be appreciated.

Edit: tried the default browser and flash works fine but it doesn't on dolphin hd. Anyone know how to fix this.

Edit 2: clearing defaults on dolphin then going to a flash enabled site and then using dolphin again made it work. Hope this helps someone else.

Anyone know why gmail won't send an email with this ROM?

[EVO 4G Android Development] ejittles:
Don't use a task manager at all, but if you want to keep those apps from *EDIT*running */EDIT*try using "Autostarts." Flipz turned me onto it about a month ago and its great. Just make sure that you are careful in there. It will usually warn you when you're about to do something bad but I can't guarantee you won't screw something up. To reduce the likelihood of that do this from inside autostarts:

menu

view

check "hide system apps"

*EDIT* Sorry for the messed up terminology there. I am a little too tired today.

[EVO 4G Android Development] jmanley69:
very true! I forgot to mention the Autostarts app. I got it shortly after I rooted my hero almost a year ago... and I LOVE it. If you disable the widgets you're not using, it tends to speed up the phone a lot too.

Google Maps is working fine for me. I used it last night, then flashed the CM6 nightly, had a lot of issues, wiped everything, flashed Fresh 1.0.1 back again and now everything seems to be working but Wimax. It sucks because I've tried all of the fixes I've run across but still no dice.

Anyway for better or worse I only use Wimax every so often so it's not a huge deal I guess. I know what I am getting into when I start flashing kernels, radios, and ROMs. I'm sure I will figure it out eventually.

Great work on this ROM. Had some issues with Launcher Pro disappearing completely when I used just the fresh updater from .5, but I ended up wiping the entire thing and installing fresh and now everything is working.

Installed the latest radio and the 3.7 FPS fix, everything is working great, though Launcher Pro has some noticeable lag between when your finger hits it and when it registers that you are scrolling horizontally. I think it's a problem with Launcher Pro, though- since Sense doesn't have any of the lag- Launcher Pro is definitely less smooth than it was in .5, though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejqr5:

hey guys... 4g question here...

i don't even know if 4g is working near me (i know it isnt officialy) but I have seen reports of some people getting a 4g signal at this nearby train station. I pass through there on the way home from work and figured i would pop on 4g... well, poof! it found a network and started connecting... i THOUGHT i was good to go...

then right after the step of "obtaining ip address from sprint..." it disconnects and tries again. this happened a good 7-10 times before i turned it off. is this this a symptom of a broken 4g setup on my evo? or possibly because i was in a moving train? or just security on the towers and i am getting worked upover nothing? lol

i did already try updating my profile and deleting the tree.xml as i have in my sig. i also have applied the newest radio and wimax that flipz has provided.

any input is greatly appreciated.

Apps2SD & Kernels

So I conducted some experiments attempting to get the Netarchy Kernel working with Apps2SD on this ROM (1.01). While I have nothing positive to report, I felt it at least behooved me to post what I did. Hopefully it may help others in some fashion.

I was running the 3.6.4 Gen Pop Kernel and research in the Netarchy Thread (and here) stated that this combination resulted in continuous Boot Loops.

The first thought that came to mind was if everyone was using a Class 6 SD Card as outlined in the FAQ. I figured I would give that a go. FYI, believe it or not, Target has a nice 8GB Lexar Class 6 card that comes with a USB caddie for $34. Wish I would have started there instead of traveling 45 minutes to Frys to pickup one up that the web site said "in Stock" which wasn't. But I digress.

So....

1. Installed New SD Card.

2. Partitioned 32MB Swap & 896MB EXT2

3. Converted EXT2 to EXT 3

4. Reboot

So far so good...No boot loop...but then:

C:\android-sdk-windows\tools>adb shell

Rebooted into recovery and wiped the EXT Partition: Same Issue

Rebooted into Recovery and Repaired EXT Partition: Same Issue

Attempted to flash "freshtoast-bfs-uv-oc-fps2" Kernel : Stuck on White HTC Screen

Restored nandroid, Attempt to Flash "fresh-evo-1-kernel" : Stuck on White HTC Screen.

Now, I will admit that my attempts at flashing the Kernels were half-assed. I did not wipe at all. Doing so would have probably allowed me to boot, but in all honesty I see myself eventually moving over to the Cyanogen ROM and was only hoping to contribute something back to this project. I WILL be Donating to this project either way.

So to summarize:

I was able to avoid the Boot Loop but did not successfully get Apps2SD configured/running. Perhaps if it did start, it would have looped. Don't know.

I was able to recover from the scary situation of some frozen White Screens. This $hit still scares the crap out of me every time I flash something.

Sorry I didn't really accomplish anything. Hopefully someone can make some good out of it. I'm up to trying some additional steps if someone wants to direct me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ausch30:
Speaking of a2sd, I'm still unable to get it working with the stock kernel. I reformatted another sd card I have (both class 6) and partitioned it and then transferred everything over to it and got the same result (see below). One interesting thing is that after switching cards most of my apps were broken and said that they weren't installed so I had to reinstall the using titanium backup.

Everybody - This is working great for me, but there is one thing.

I installed Vannilla Lock + Vanilla Apps + World Clock (I think).

All I know is that the HTC Sense Gallery has been replaced by a Vanilla gallery. How do I revert?

Is there a way to get the old HTC Gallery back? I really don't like the "floaty" gallery.

[EVO 4G Android Development] angingrich:
This may have already been posted, and I'll post on geekfor.me, but:

Using Vanilla Lock (but not vanilla clock or anything else):

If I didn't use the phone at all for a little while (maybe an hour+), the screen would be come almost completely unresponsive. Maybe 1 in 10 times it would respond, but it seemed like the screen itself just wasn't recognizing input.

With the stock lock, you either slide to turn off an alarm or hit the snooze button. There's nothing similar for vanilla lock, and there is no way to turn the alarm off once it starts other than cycling power. I tried going into alarms and turning them off, but it still kept beeping.

Just a heads up :)
