Thanks for the help, I think I added all the features correctly at Niefs Rom Comparison

If you guys see anything missing or incorrect just post here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=746611
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChrisAC84:
Installed the latest nightly, and I must say I miss the Sense UI. I am gonna keep CM6 though, just give it a good run. Only problem I have though, the little tip thing on the home screen. No matter how long I press it, I can't remove it from my home screen. Can someone tell me how to get it off my screen? Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
long press on it and drag it to the trash icon on the bottom. also, you miss sense??? let's see what your opinion is after using cm6 for a while ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] trixr750:
Need help guys.

I am still on RC1 and flashed the snapv4 over but then that broke my camera.

so I tried flashing snapv4.1 and that didn't help either. So I just nandroid back to my original...

do i need to wipe to flash a kernel!?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Virus:
just flash rc1 again and you will be ok
[EVO 4G Android Development] trixr750:
damn it. wouldn't i lose all my info?!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChrisAC84:
I tried that so many times, but after my post it deleted just fine. I feel like an idiot, lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] posguy99:
I found this morning that even sending a msg close to the single limit doesn't work correctly. The message goes, but the phone never seems to get the idea and eventually fails it, even though the recipient has it.

I gotta watch a few logcat(s) and see what's up with that one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
lol no worries man. it happens to the best of us.
[EVO 4G Android Development] anshawnga:
would really like to know that also. @ shift i see u were using snap v4.1. Was it with the cc or without?
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
it was with cc. it just seemed faster and more stable to me. i'm running v5 experimental now, it's butter, excellent battery life with the undervolting, and exceptional stability.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ajftl:
Soooooo pretttyyyyy ... where is it. Where is it!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChrisAC84:
I have only been using it for maybe 5 minutes, and I am slowly forgetting Sense, and remembering all the joys of CM on my old G1 :cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] nonpointtruth:
Duuuude, you seriously need to clean out your email!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vivix729:
I'm waiting for v5 final zip. Too lazy to figure out what to do with the experimental image :P
[EVO 4G Android Development] ajftl:
Lol. Ughhhh takes foreeva
[EVO 4G Android Development] timtlm:
If your email shows that many unread, I'm guessing you imported everything from a pop mail account like hotmail, and they all show unread now. If that is the case, go into gmail on your pc and select All. There will be a message that pops up that says "All 50 conversations on this page are selected.

Select all 2XXX conversations in Inbox

". Click it, and then you can mark all as read.

Uh oh, found another thing I don't like. Forgive me if it has been answered, but how do I use Sprint's Visual voicemail?:confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] anshawnga:
That's whats up. Think i'm gonna give that v5 a go. thanks :cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] DomSim:
are you using titanium backup or something similar to restore with? if so thats probably your problem. do not restore anything to do with sms and mms should work fine. if you do not want to loose you old sms's use something like "sms backup" that backs them up to your gmail. after restoring once without restoring the sms stuff you can from then on go back to backing up and restoring the sms stuff. i ran into this same issue. seems as though backing up sms and setting for it backed up something from an oloder nightly that was breaking mms, so when restoring it would then break it. by starting a new backup, you are backing up from a working point. make sense? if your not using something to restore, then ignore all this :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] anshawnga:
Diggin that there dude! what themes/icons are u using?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Fixter:
Apparently they have been using Voice. Which for people like me, (In Puerto Rico) that means I'm screwed, cuase Voice doesn't work in Puerto Rico yet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
Sprints visual voicemail still works, it just sucks that you get that stupid text message with every voicemail
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChrisAC84:
no, I mean where is it in CM6? I can't find it:confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] jez924:
like the homescreen, what did you use to get the icons like that on the bottom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
That's launcher pro, instead of adw which comes with cm6

[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
For some reason I'm just not feeling handcents ui, but you're correct that does work.

Do you use SetCPU as well?
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpoz:
I don't like it either. Only my parents leave me messages. People my age don't.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
yep

you can mostly change how it looks. i have set it up quite nicely. took me some time though...

Would the app ClipStore work for what you need ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] brownmc77:
Display?

Is this normal? Display at 59%, I have my brightness almost all the way down, but still @ 59. Anybody else experiencing this? Another quick question, How come I cant restore my mobsters account to CM6? It makes me start over. Is their something im missing? Thanks and by the way AWESOME rom Cyanogen. Thanks again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] RickBaller:
Are the additional colors listed in the SMS notification LED choices available on the Evo?

I have flashed every nightly up till now. On the 7-26 build I thought "well we must be pretty close cause this feels perfect." 10 minutes later I was flashing RC1.

I installed flashed protected market fix. Uninstalled facebook.apk and flashed the fixed one (no build.prop necessary).

I am pretty sure this is the best ROM I have ever used. Coming from a G1 two days before it came out and rooting for a JF ROM long ago. I have flashed about everything out there and this is BY FAR the best Android experience I have ever had.

It seems I am still having trouble with MMS. Received two and when I clicked the download button it said downloading for a while then went back to a download button. I am in a spotty service area right now, so that may be related because I heard the MMS fix was built into RC1.

fps2d=avg-48 stdev-9.76

Quadrant=1228

Linpack=usually 36 or more

EDIT: Battery life is better than fine. Was lucky to get 3 or 4 hours at first but after FULL charge (all night off), wipe battery stats, allow to drain till it turns off, full charge (all night off) I am getting as good as any ROM I have used on the evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] steb0ne:
Try putting ur sd card in a sd card reader and try putting it in ur computer, right click properties, then go under tools and try doing a scan and fix errors... That worked for me (my sd card got messed up after flashing the last nightly), but is working now after fixing the errors on my pc
[EVO 4G Android Development] appzattak:
I did this facebook fix by deleteing the facebook apk in /system/app, then I installed this apk and facebook sync worked...however after a reboot or something it seems that the built in backup restored the non working version...I guess we can disable that backup feature....anyone else have this prob?

UPDATE: Maybe I jumped the gun on this, I looked in my accounts and sync settings and facebook was not there, I tried to add it and it woudl not. I then opened the facebook app and in setting it was set to not sync with any contacts, turned it on it it now works, and it now shows in accounts and sync...strange...
[EVO 4G Android Development] elas123:
I ran all the nightly ones now this one and the Bluetooth was better before rc1. People are saying they can't understand me and i'm having problems hearing them. Didn't have trouble last week though
[EVO 4G Android Development] jrmithdobbs:
Make a nandroid backup just in case.

Hit menu in contacts -> import/export -> export to sd card.

Login to the google contacts app and import them all from the file that got written to your sd card.

Wipe all contacts from your phone and toggle contact syncing. Should start working.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rldev:
I get them sometimes. I also seem to have problems with some widgets loading after running Fps2d.

Have you tried going to the market and installing facebook MAKING SURE auto update is NOT checked, the go through the process again with the fixed apk?

10 hours is amazing? I was getting more like 24 with DC 3.2.3 + Netarchy Kernal. Haven't taken the phone of the charger yet since CM6 install, but i'll report back on if i get something similar with this rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dolfan08:
I'm sure I entered the credentials correctly and am using the OWA address. I've done this many times. I'm a Desktop Support Tech for my company so I am familiar with configuring the setup. I've had this issue with every 2.2 ROM but have had zero issues with the 2.1 ROMS. I think I read somewhere that this is a problem with the handling of unrecognized certificates. Thanks for your reply. I do appreciate you trying to help!

[EVO 4G Android Development] BB15:
Sounds to me like that might be 10 hours of pretty heavy use. I'm on DC 3.2.3 with Netarchy's no OC kernal and I get probably around 20 hours with moderate use, but it goes down significantly if I hammer on it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
I flashed last night's nightly build right before the RC1 came out. Just noticed that the RC1 is about 1mb larger. Has cyan confirmed the differences in the builds or can anyone confirm the differences?

[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
As promised, I tested a non CM6 rom today with respect to battery drain when using the phone as a dumb mp3 player. After 40 minutes at the gym, the phone lost 2% battery. As a matter of fact, it is now an hour since I started my test and I have since turned on 3G/phone and checked my email and I am sitting at a 3% loss in battery.

Under the same conditions I would have lost 8-9%, easily, on CM6.

The rom I am using has yet to be released but it is a 2.2 rom running Netarchy's newest kernel.

I have another hypothesis. If you are experiencing above normal battery drain while using the phone as a dumb mp3 player, try manually turning off all connections in the settings menu instead of turning on airplane mode via a widget or through the power menu. I know shift_ has had this problem. I would love to hear what you get by doing this.

Even though I am not on CM6 currently, I still would love to get down to bottom of that battery drain.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fldash:
Can we discuss the nightly in here, the nightly thread is closed? Just wondering if there's any other way to use visual voicemail and keep from getting that text message (without Handcent) on the nightly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
i did a similar test a while back to see how much battery 3g uses. i turned off my mobile data network connection and let the phone sit overnight. over 8 hours, the battery dropped 1%.

i'll test out what you tried after work though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ajftl:
Got me launcherpro icons from market ...
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
Yeah, try shutting off all of your connections one by one manually and then run the music player with headphones in for 40-60 minutes. Tell me what you get. The 2.2 rom/kernel combo that I am using now would lose 2 MAYBE 3%.
[EVO 4G Android Development] anshawnga:
you would have to search in the earlier parts of this thread and its a link to download the visual voicemail app.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
I did this test as well and had the same result, only 1% loss over night with no data connections
[EVO 4G Android Development] ryncr:
ajftl, what is the weather widget you used?

also guys as far as the wallpapers, you dont have to reboot your phone, if you load a new wallpaper and get the grass image just restart your launcher and it will come up as the right image. (at least i had that problem and thats how i fixed it, seemed to work pretty well on multiple occasions)
[EVO 4G Android Development] dkotoric:
how did you make the battery percentage on the wallpaper
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
1% definitely sounds right. Applying this knowledge though means that the music player chews through way to much battery then it should in airplane mode.

If the phone looses 1% in 8 hours with no data, it should not loose 7-8% in 40 minutes of playing music through the stock player with headphones in and no data.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
will do. i'll update with details soon.

yep. i tried it twice and got the same results both times.

i use mixzing, though i don't think that should matter *that* much.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
Exactly, something is weird
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
I don't think it should matter either. I guess the point is playing music in airplane mode, period.

What kind of drain would you say that you experience in about an hour of playing music in airplane mode on CM6?
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpoz:
I have yet to downloaded SetCPU. It worries me a little. What settings do you use?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ryncr:
battstatt is the battery percentage widget, tajm is the word clock widget, but im still not sure what weather widget he had.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
going to properly test it out in a little while..

i posted my profiles somewhere in the thread. do a search.

i think it's beautiful widgets.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cmart4:
I'm currently on Calk's 2.2. I've used CM6 up until maybe 2 weeks ago. Are there any new development on the 8/6 Nightly, or is it basically fine-tuning an already solid effort? TIA
[EVO 4G Android Development] vladthedog:
I'm on the nightly. Quick question. Under spare parts it says the android system has a partial wake lock of over 3 hours. Its been unplugged for about that long...is this normal? I did a full wipe before flashing the 05 nightly (I've been on the cm nightlies since they first came out). My battery life is horrendous. Any thoughts?
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpoz:
I think I know exactly where they are :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
Lol... *backs away slowly*

Btw, I just noticed something (if you already know this, don't flame me). When you're not on the homescreen, CM6 notifies you of incoming email with the audio and visual notification. However, if you're on the homescreen, it won't, since the email app is on the dock (at least for me).

That's so fricking slick!!

I keep discovering little touches, places off polish, like that everywhere. Truly amazing!

Swyped from my EVO via the XDA App
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
My guess to where the power drain in cm6 is the 3G usage, because I had this problem with my nexus. 3G consumes so much power on his roms, wifi actually uses less. I don't know if its suppose to be like that or not but I'm always on wifi which gives me good battery on cm6. This is why I can't wait for 4g in this rom because that will work more like wifi
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
I think the 3G battery drain issue is true for any rom and even stock. I do however think there might be a bit more 3G related battery drain on CM6 but not anything that crazy.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
True, but I just get sooo much more battery time when on wifi that I have nothing to complain about
[EVO 4G Android Development] thefredelement:
I love the ROM but the battery life has just about broken me. I did a full power off charge, powered up and kept charging until it showed 100%. I even un plugged and waited a minute and plugged it back in, it took a bit to go from 99% to charged. I reset the phone, cleared some battery stats and came back up.

Battery stats:

89%

13m 14s since unplugged

Display 75%

Maps 12%

Android System 5%

LauncherPro 2%

Cell Standby 2%

That's an 11% drop in 13 minutes!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] pinksupervisor:
my battery life is doing better today, its been about two hours since I took it off the charger. it has gone down 20%. while that isn't the best battery life, its a lot better than the previous two days.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
Yes. WiFi literally saves the Evo. It's basically a must when possible.

I'm going to test 4G battery drain tonight to see where it fits in with 3G and WiFi.
[EVO 4G Android Development] pinksupervisor:
I had this problem the last two days. but after two full charges and discharges and Facebook being updated my battery life is better today. hopefully it improves for you.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thefredelement:
I'm thinking it's a display driver issue and wonder if this is why HTC capped 30 FPS really.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thefredelement:
Have you changed kernels?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tranquilchaos:
On the default homescreen that's installed on CM6, there's that bottom tray of 3 things (dial phone, apps, web)....how do you change those out? I somehow changed out the dial icon for a handcent text icon and have no idea how I did.

Also, when you hold the apps button down and push up, that bar disappears.....I have no idea how to get it, I just keep doing weird **** and it eventually pops back up, hah....

Someone, please enlighten me...
[EVO 4G Android Development] e-motion:
Nope. I'm not currently on CM6 but when I was on 08-04 nightly, with Snap 4.0 kernel, I was getting about 20-21 hours battery life with around 3 hours of display on time...
[EVO 4G Android Development] tranquilchaos:
Also, who uses the default CM6 homescreen? Who uses Launcher Pro?

Which one do you guys think is better? or do you use another such as "dxtop" or something....
[EVO 4G Android Development] pinksupervisor:
today for part of the time I was using the stock cm6 kernal. after about an hour or something I flashed cm snap 4.
[EVO 4G Android Development] pinksupervisor:
I had been using launcher pro since I got my phone a month ago. but the past few days I have been using adw. I like both of them.
[EVO 4G Android Development] hooover:
Drag whatever you want to it...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
You can replace whatever icon you want onto the quick launchers. Just long press an app and then drag it down onto the quick launcher where you want it.

As for your second question, if you look closely at the bottom of the screen, you will see a black bar that fades out as it gets a little higher. To get your launcher bar back, just swipe your finger down, starting near the bottom of the screen. To make the bottom bar disappear, long press the app drawer button and drag up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tranquilchaos:
Care to elaborate the pros and cons? I just reentered the world of Android. I used to use dxtop on my T-Mobile G1 back in the day but a lot has developed since I've been gone.

Pink, have you used dxtop before? It's pretty cool.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
To me, this is the Evo's true battery life, give or take a little. Without going through hoops to extend the life of your battery, this is about average. I have monitored battery life across several roms and multiple Evo's and these numbers hold true. If you are not getting around this type of battery life, something is wrong.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
i agree. today, though, i pushed my evo to the limit in terms of usage. *A LOT* of calls and emails, local music for 2 hours, and twitter/fb/xda checking. today was my heaviest use day so far.

i'm currently clocking in at ~2.5 hours of screen on, and on my 11th hour. i could push it to 13-14 if i wanted to, since it's at 10% right now.

on a sidenote, msmith1, i'm doing that test. all signals are off (but not airplane mode) with music playing. i'm monitoring it with system monitor. i'll let that go for 1 hour. if i still have battery left, i'm going to turn on airplane mode, and do it again for 1 hour. keep in mind though, i have my setcpu profile for 245mhz with screen off. i was thinking of turning it off and letting snap5.1 take care of it, but maybe in my next round of tests.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpoz:
I found you, you snake in the grass! I'll probably set my max at 1113. Otherwise, I'm going to copy your settings exactly.

temp > 50c = 652/245 (conservative)

screen off = 384/245 (powersave)

charging/full = 1152/245 (ondemand)

battery < 25% = 499/245 (powersave)

battery < 50% = 883/245 (conservative)

battery < 100% = 1152/245 (ondemand)
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
haha you stalker! :p

disclaimer: that 25% battery profile really slows down your system. i keep it there so that i can make calls only, but i've since modified my profiles a bit. your mileage may vary.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
Yeah, it's def give or take a little. If you have more than average going on when the screen is off like lots of calls and especially music in CM6, you are going to get cut down a bit.

2.5-3hrs of screen on time is about average IMO.

Also, I never tried SetCPU on my music tests. I def would like to hear your results under both conditions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] IcOpRo:
Ok wow you learn something new everyday i guess.... didn't know that i could use that option I installed Wireless Tether from the market, like Ive always done and for some reason it stops sometimes. so here it comes.... does that way of tethering work just like the one on the market? of do i have to pay the $30us to sprint ?

I know its kinda stupid and i think i know the answer but just want to be sure..

Thanks .
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
i should mention the signal at where i work as well. i work in a datacenter, so it hovered between -100 and -85. really odd, but voice quality was fine. everywhere else i was getting between -75 and -55. these kinds of jumps across the board can also contribute to quicker battery drain, no?
[EVO 4G Android Development] IcOpRo:
Have you tried Chomps?
