[EVO 4G Android Development] TorxT3D:
can someone explain to me this new DC beta rom??

Is it based on froyo, if so, from what source?

Does it include sense visuals and sprint apps??

What kernal is it using?

Is JIT enabled or is OC enabled?

Im having a hard to time figuring out the details on this rom because the first post gives little info... and im not seeing any screenshots. thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] spurnout:
This has easily been my favorite ROM! Glad I donated!

Prolly want to read the first page, no?
[EVO 4G Android Development] TorxT3D:
theres nothing on that first page, or the first two replies, or the code.google link that tells me anything other than its froyo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpkimmel:
Its based off of froyo, android 2.2, sorry xda evo 4g members are some of the rudest members of any forum
[EVO 4G Android Development] RikusHaven:
Yes it is based on froyo. It includes sense and sprint apps. I do believe JIT Enabled, the rest I have no clue. And there isn't any need for screenshots, just imagine Sense from the 2.1 ROMs and it's sort of like that, if not exactly like that.

Anyone able to get Google Voicemail working properly?
[EVO 4G Android Development] VSack:
Poop. You're right. My bad.

I'll give you a more thorough answer then than the guy who had to call me out:

Its based on FroYo 2.2, CyanogenMod6. I'm not exactly sure which nightly of CM6, but I'd wager to guess and earlier one since people have claimed there was an issue with the front camera darkness. Expect this to change now that CM6 has reached RC1.

It includes DroidSense's Sense on FroYo, which I am still at a complete loss how in the heck they did that :) To my knowledge, this is the only Sense implementation on 2.2 which is astounding considering that HTC has yet to release any source with 2.2 and Sense working together.

The kernel is identical to CM6, I believe.

JIT and Overclocking is possible. The MFLOPs in the hall of fame on the front page are demonstrative of that.

Hope this helps. Next time I pop off I'll make sure my smart-assedness is backed up with empirical evidence :)

Don't care if I get a link to DC3.5 or not, you guys are worth it.

ok whatever happened, I cannot boot from the beta 2 build anymore this morning. It was running fine last night to. I powered off, and back on to test that now it just sites at the load screen. sigh :( reflashed beta 1 and it works just fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] hoopsdavis:
Wipe, reflash and be patient.

This happened to a few of us last night, the first couple boots take a long time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jabbawalkee:
Trying to see if anyone else has been having this issue I've been experiencing on latest beta (Beta 2) and the first beta:

More often than not, when I hit home from an application (Maps, Browser, and others) I receive the white HTC screen followed by a "Loading..." screen and it takes 10-20 seconds before it goes away while my homescreen set up is rebuilt.

It's a very annoying issue and I remember experiencing back on ROMs with the myTouch and G1. Although I love this ROM, I absolutely can't use it with those loading screens...they drive me crazy. I'm hoping I'm not the only one so that Treve and Damageless can fix this issue. Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jayle007:
browsing speed

I've been testing browser speed between DC 3.5B2 and CM6 and it seems to me that there's a lag with DC 3.5. Sense on DC seems to be very smooth though. If they can iron out the browser, I would use DC as my daily Rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wildgillis:
Am I the only one having shutdown issues? Power off using the power button and power menu, then phone will not turn on until I pull the battery
[EVO 4G Android Development] jabbawalkee:
Are you on Beta 1 or Beta 2? That issue was fixed in Beta 2.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wildgillis:
I am on Beta 2...I should clarify a little better I suppose

The phone appears to completely shut down it is just unresponsive to the power button until the battery pull
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kosmos:
No, I'm having them too. You have to play with it and hold the power button down for various lengths of time before hitting it just right and having it power off. Then that just creates another issues...hangs at initial boot screen and never advances.

Anyone else having Swype issues? I was able to sort it out with Beta 1 but can't with 2. I can use Swype going hitting letter by letter, won't work if trying to "swype". Latest attempt to reinstall it I get an error message: "Swype could not be installed. Free up some space and try again." It's not a space issue given it's basically stock as I've only added 3 apps to the phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aduljr:
i waited 15 minutes. :( the thing is it was working fine last night until I rebooted. Going to try again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aduljr:
that happened with me this morning. I flashed it last night and I was running fine.

I just did a fresh wipe, flash, going to see how that turns out. So far it is on the sprint 4g screen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lwarranty:


I had same issue after changing some settings don't remember all but battery saver and a few others. Can't run it till bt is fixed but again no problem till I started looking and changing for battery life...
[EVO 4G Android Development] aduljr:
after wiping everything I finally got back in. I'll test more later as I just need a working phone for now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dwertz:
I have not seen this on this rom but saw it on the stock rom. My issue was GPS was crashing. I had to wipe and it fixed it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
Look back a few pages at my comments on this.

Sent from Evo
[EVO 4G Android Development] jabbawalkee:
Well, I properly wiped and flashed and it has been happening on both Beta 1 and Beta 2 so I know the problem isn't on my end...I'll wait until it's fixed. Only issue preventing me from using this as my daily ROM
[EVO 4G Android Development] IcOpRo:
Has anyone noticed that, if you install this ROM your Storm8 games reinstall like if youve never got an account with them, meaning that you have to start from lvl 1, dont know if anyone else has any of the games installed. If i got back to 2.1 even a brand new install (not a restore) i can install them and they will have my current account stats.
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
Swype website details fix, uninstall installer, then swype, then reinstall.

Sent from Evo
[EVO 4G Android Development] RikusHaven:
Just create a Storm8 account on 2.1 and on 2.2 just sign in with the account you made on the Storm8 game//games. And your stats are back.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kosmos:
That is what I did to get it working with Beta 1, doesn't help with Beat 2. Will reflash and see if that helps for some reason.
[EVO 4G Android Development] IcOpRo:
Im kinda lost, sorry, what do you mean? Ive had the games installed since i got my EVO, can you explain a bit on how to go by that?

Can we punch you in the scrote yet or do we have to wait for puberty to kick in?

If you have to ask then you have to wait. If you spent all that money to get an Evo you should at least have the decency to support the independent developers working to make the toy your parents got you better.

[EVO 4G Android Development] skantman69:
Please don't take this the wrong way but what is the big deal with everyone having withdraws over a public release. For someone that has tried this rom versus Ava's froyo isn't everyone really at the same point with what they can. I mean other than 4g there couldn't be much difference in the 2 other than developer loyalty.

Because Damage Control is awesome!!!!

Although it is a Beta if the only reason your donating is to get a buggy rom your crazy wait a couple days when all the bugs are worked out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] VSack:
If it gets the proles to fork over some cash to the devs, I'm all for this sort of staggered release.

That and I donated a few weeks ago so I was in on the first email :)

need i go on?
[EVO 4G Android Development] MadhouseMedic:
Sorry. With two Roms out right now that are both likely to be better than this and if not two at least one that is PROVEN better and doesn't cost me a thing (not that i didn't donate) i am going to pass on this. This is a hobby, if you don't want to Dev for Android then don't. But unless i get some hands on time and have a product that is decently tested on my device by my self, i'd be an idiot to pay you for it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lwarranty:
So - how bout that bt sync issue?

Show stopper for me, any idea when bt sync and/or 3.5.3 will hit the wires?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ItsMeCD:
Sorry you feel that way. Without the unpaid, and apparently unappreciated work of developers like these, we would have no custom ROM's whether it be for a hobby or not.
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:

I was an idiot before "donating" - now I'm still an idiot but I'm in with a bunch of great folks and a very promising rom!
[EVO 4G Android Development] fallentimm:
haha its a BETA, for the $5 i sent them months ago it has become my daily driver. I cant say that much for any other 2.2 rom. and I didnt "pay them" for anything. I showed my appreciation and they extended there usually private testing group to us. After i got the rom i sent treve some more beer money, see my previous post this is way more functional than avas atleast.

CM6 is great, dont get me wrong but I like my sense.

So, someone please theme this ROM already! I can't take the stock look =O

Looks to be pretty positive feedback, I flashed it late last night just to do a quick check but did a Nand for my long ass day today. About to get in it now and set it up, but after using Koni's detox blue....stock is painful =p

Hope this thing works as well for me as it does most of you

**edit** Have any of you got a feel for battery life compared to 3.2.3? I hear CM6 is really bad on battery...people think 10 hours on that rom is great...I really need more than 10 hours =x

Battery

I asked this earlier, seemed to be chowin on the battery. Did the battery reset/refresh, tried it again, with normal use in an 8 hour day, it killed it. I use my phone for my business (meaning as a phone and mail, little if any playing around, streaming, settings, etc) and usually get 10 - 14 hours. I tried the battery saving to max, etc but it still mopped it up - AS did CM6.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rippley05:
Ahh yea Koni deserves it, hope he finally gets his evo!

Thanks for the reply, it seems you guys are really onto something solid here and I'm excited to dive in and see what kind of results I get~!
[EVO 4G Android Development] TrevE:
you dont have setcpu minimum to less than 245 do you? I had issues with CM's kernel with that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Emrys_90:
I looked over someone elses battery percent mod, theoretically this should work. However, when I pushed it to my phone all I have is a blank space, no icons at all, where the battery icon is supposed to be. Any ideas?

Here's a link to the original battery mod as well. http://ip208-100-42-21.static.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=720458

Ahh damn, well I may play with it a while and just have to nand back during my work week if I only get 8 hours. I'm sure it will all get adjusted and sorted out in time so it's no big deal....I have no issues keeping a version of DC 2.1 and 2.2

@TrevE: did you catch my bug report about the HTC Loading screens I've been receiving? I love this ROM but makes it hard to use --> http://code.google.com/p/damagecontrol/issues/detail?id=55

I'm not quite sure what's causing the loading screens ;-/
[EVO 4G Android Development] Emrys_90:
Not with this version, this just requires the 100 png files plus a modified xml file, all in the framework-res.apk file. I'm thinking I did something wrong with this, maybe theres a certain way your supposed to copy files or something?
[EVO 4G Android Development] TrevE:
ive seen that before when spare parts task management set to aggressive. and yes, i see all the google code issues, usually look there first before here. Making my rounds on kernels first then ill hit them up

Kernels (UNTESTED up in post2) These may or may not help battery
[EVO 4G Android Development] jabbawalkee:
Okay good, just checking. I don't have mine set to aggressive and I'm not using SetCPU or messing with battery saving settings. It happens fresh out the box for me and even after downloading all my apps. Hopefully you can pinpoint what's causing it. Thanks bud!

So... please don't hate on me for asking such a general question here..

I have been following this and I am anxiously awaiting my DC Froyo fix :-) Question is: How does everyone feel about just overall performance?

I have tried some froyo roms (Avalanch roms (sense and no sense) and CM6 RC1) and they all have some problems that are bound to get fixed, i understand... and froyo gets crazy awesome benchmark scores, I understand that too. But in day to day use, how do you guys feel about the speed of this rom? I was not impressed in any of those cases and the overall feel of DC 3.2.3 (themed up, netarchy kernel, and with launcher pro) is just unbeatable so far. I have really high hopes for DC, since my watermark so far is DC 3.2.3... what do you all think?

One specific thing that I really thought froyo would let us do (and that I can't really do on DC 3.2.3), is to have a live wallpaper active but still have everything as smooth as butter. Sliding between screens, app drawer, etc. So far on all the 2.2 roms I have tried, I still have to use a static wallpaper to be that smooth.

Is wifi still having probs? When it is fixed up I might go ahead and donate (well... might before then too, these guys deserve it).

Sorry if anyone feels like this is a waste of a post, I just wanted to hear some unbiased general impressions.

You guys are all freakin great!
