What radio do you have installed? Sometime it may be the radio an a lot of time it might just be your location has bad 3G coverage. Bad 3G eats up battery like nothing else. My suggestion would be flash the newest radio(2.15.00.07.28) or try an app like UltimateJuice that switches to the best signal without constantly searching for one because the searches are what killing you battery.

About the custom kernel... Some outstanding strides have been made to the SNAP7 kernel!!! Battery life because of undervolting among other things have been GREAT! You might wanna check it out...

As far as I know, there's currently no way to use hash codes with CM. You can do a Nand backup, flash to a stock rom, make whatever changes you need to make, then flash back.

Hey Im sorry if this has been brought up before. I thought i remember reading it a while back.

I just noticed when im roaming im unable to make calls or dial out as it dials Verizon and phone can not be authenticated. I don't remember this happening before and my other phones on my acct seem to be ok..

Is there a setting or something that im missing ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tyrnight:
search the forum for fancy widget.. Looks just like the htc clock with weather.
[EVO 4G Android Development] herzzreh:
I had this issue.

Call Sprint and tell them what issue you're having. They will try to make you update the prl, tell them you already did it and you still have that issue. They will transfer you to tech support, explain the issue. They will tell you to go through steps, it will be updating the prl. As with the previous rep, tell them that you already did it. Then they will make you shut off your phone and repercussion the whole thing. They will tell you to reprogram your phone, pretend that you did it. It should work afterwards.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Briz600:
Great thank you I will give that a shot tomorrow
[EVO 4G Android Development] fsiddique:
I too followed this procedure and now I can make and receive calls when roaming, what the sprint rep told me was they update the HLRs (or something like that) on their end and it gets pushed to your phone when it activates after power on. One issue I still am having is when I force roam onto vzw (i haven't roamed so far unless I force it so no other way of testing) I only get 1x. Can someone else confirm whether they get 3g while forced roaming on cm6 with pri 1.40?

has anyone been able to use earphones with mic and music controls with cm6? i'm looking to buy a new set, but i've heard it's not fully compatible with cm6 on the evo (but those reports are somewhat old). if anyone has earphones/headphones that also have a mic and controls, can you share your experience with cm6 (rc release or nightly, please specify)?

thanks.

edit:

or does it depend on the music player you use?

I am using the shure 1 button iphone controller. It works fine with one click pause/play , double click next but the long click puts it into shuffle(stock player) and my place gets lost. Been using mixzing instead and that works ok.

so, mixzing works fine with the external controls? awesome because that's what the player i use.

So ok I am sure this has been brought up 1000000000 times (sorry if it has I just do not have time to read threw 700 pages of info). I did do a search as well so please dont flam to hard :). I have been running cyanogenmod for about 2 weeks now. I think I have tried just about every rom out their.. So far I am liking this the most. With that said I have 1 minor issue..

For some reason I can not download any mms images that friends are sending to me. In my text messages it will show the "download" button. I will even press on it and it says "downloading" but never goes any further then that.

I didn't see anything in the "these are things that are not working" on the op. I also have read prob 200 pages without finding anything about the topic. Any help on the subject would be awesome! Ok you can start flaming away if you like now :). Hopefully someone can give me some insight on my issue
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
Mind pointing me in the direction of some of these? I've had these on my mind lately. Also, I heard of an app called droidshuffle in the market that improves how the headphones work. I've been meaning to look into phones with controls but didn't really know where to start considering everything says iPhone compatible on them.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
this is one thread i came across via google:

I just learned that the current iteration of BFS breaks GPS on many devices. BFS isn't part of CM, but if you're using one of the custom kernels with BFS and your GPS isn't working, thats the cause.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bjrmd:
droidshuffle did not work for me

I use mixzing but would rather use the stock player(easier to read the font outside) except for the long headset press bug.

Also use a fair amount of bluetooth a2dp which is of excellent quality. the controls work just fine
[EVO 4G Android Development] krizno:
Me too kinda I rebooted and they showed up but when I save them they don't so I got save mms from the market save a pic if it doesn't show up in a folder called save mms then reboot it should show up then

I did a complete wipe of everything

so, should i have not wiped everything??

Thanks for the help.

Yes, if your phone's awake time equals up time your phone isn't sleeping.

Lost my Google Account sync

I flashed the latest nightly and rebooted to find my Google Account association lost. Odd, but not a problem. Just go into Settings -> Accounts, and ...

huh

Looks like I can only add an Exchange server. Both Google and Facebook are no longer available as syncable accounts.

I'm gonna try reflashing the GApps zip, but I'm not confident it'll fix it. Has anyone seen this problem? Apologies if it's been answered; I searched and must've missed it.

EDIT: Flashing the 0817 signed GApps fixed it. Though it's odd that it needed to. I didn't do a full wipe before flashing the nightly, and normally that preserves account info. Oh well. Fixed now, so who cares.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
lol nice! i'm going to try out the stock player with my new jlabs

sorry, but can you rephrase that? i honestly don't know what you're asking.

checking in partial wake usage. what's the highest percentage?

Nope. I turn that and GPS off for the most part to save my battery. I also use juice defender and setpcu

[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
then you're texting a lot.. =P

no, seriously though, try force closing it and restarting it up again. if that doesn't work, reboot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] corvarea:
well thats the funny thing.. I message maybe 10 times a day? oh and i am on the 8-23 nightly and with the 7.4 875. Ill will try force quitting and see if that helps.. but I have restarted twice yesterday.. and this has been going of for sometime now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vulcZ:
The exact same thing happened to me after flashing the latest nightly (8/26), and just like you, updating Gapps fixed the problem for me :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] vulcZ:
I had noticed that others were saying their GPS wasn't working. I never really investigated what they meant by "not working", until I noticed that my GPS was taking an awful long time to connect and give me an accurate reading of my location. Is this what people mean by it not working? I didn't have a problem running stock RC2, but as soon as I updated to two different nightly updates (including the latest 8/26), I'm having GPS issues where it takes a very long time to accurately connect, whereas under RC1 it was very fast.

I also installed Snap 7.4/825, but it was happening with the previously nightly that I WASN'T running Snap on.

edit: I'm going to Google BFS and try and undo whatever is implementing it just to verify. With school starting this week I find I need my GPS more and more lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
this is weird. i've never heard of such an issue. when was the last time you did a full data wipe?
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
I ran into this problem last night too. I just did a nand-restore to my previous nightly. Glad you found an easy fix
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lento10:
sorry for the confusion. It is my first time using Spare Parts, don't know how to use the app. I can't find an option to display uptime vs awake time.

thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
lol no worries.. here's what you do...

app drawer > spare parts > battery history > select running, etc to see their times.

compare those times to the up time found in settings > about phone > battery

there's your awake time vs uptime.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lento10:
28m 37s vs 2h 12m

thanks for the info.
[EVO 4G Android Development] paulieb81:
Yes you are correct in that is what we refer to GPS not working, by taking 2 - 3 minutes to get a lock, and sometimes it reads the wrong place. Mine had that a week ago or so but is fine now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vulcZ:
What did you do to fix it, if you don't mind me asking?

Also, which nightly are you running? I see you're on Snap 7.3, I might have to give that a try.
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Last few days I haven't been able to get my email to work. I have an imap yahoo account setup on the phone which worked fine up until a few days ago. Now I get this message saying, "invalid username or password." Now before anyone states the obvious, yes I checked and the username and password are correct. I also double checked the imap server and smtp server settings, nothing has changed.

I've tried to reset up the account, flash a new nightly, cache and dalvik wipe, and nothing seems to correct this issue. I've stopped short of doing a full wipe as I'd like to avoid the hassle.

Any thoughts?
[EVO 4G Android Development] lordcyrus:
Anyone else having problems with data and voice while roaming?

The woman I talked to at Sprint said she did everything she could and I'm still having a problem making phone calls when roaming.

I think it started when I upgraded to 1.40 PRI. Now when I'm roaming and call, it tells me that Verizon can't authenticate my number.. or something like that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] corvarea:
on the 23rd. maybe I should do a complete wipe again? or maybe its how i flashed the last kernel? The first time I flashed a 7.x I did the data wipe and everything ( I did it just like the video showed) the last 7.4 I just installed it to my sd card then flashed it. Could it be how I did the last flash?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jbroad572:
Forgive if it's already been posted, but the phone no longer finds the name when I just input a few characters. Is that something I'm over looking or not available with this dialer?
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
I think what people forget is that most phones that last all day cant do nearly as much as the phone we use. Also some ppl are not in good coverage areas and the more the phone searches for good signal the faster the battery will drain... peopl need to just get a car charger and charged whenever they are in it if they need a phone to last forever...:confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:

[EVO 4G Android Development] Atom6:
Its not that I want the phone to last forever. I understand the implications of our phones features and the battery suffers for it. I do think I may be having reception issues as well. I go between "1x" and 3g all day long. Not sure why. I had a steady 3g connection pre-ROM, I average between -80 and -95 DB all day long and often it kicks over to 1x...I wish there was a way to log my reception so I could give graphical feedback, but can't.

I do have the radio flashed as well, unless I was supposed to do this after I flashed the RC, which I haven't done. I did check though and my radio is the version stated in the OP.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Atom6:
Downloaded, it is all set correctly. Looking at -59 inside the building which is funny because it was worse outside in the clear skies.

Before I could pickup 4g outside and not inside...this is the opposite. Weird however, my prl is proper...I guess ill just wait and see.

Funny part...I took it off the power adapter...dropped to -70...I guess I will have to see when it goes to x1 and what I may be doing to cause it.

[EVO 4G Android Development] HDRules:
I had the same problem when I upgraded to 1.40 too. You probably were talking to a regular Sprint customer service rep when you called. You need to get to the tech support area and explain that you got the cannot authenticate the phone message from Verizon when trying to roam. Then they should be able to fix it. Hopefully the rep will be able to transfer you when you request tech support. Good luck.

[EVO 4G Android Development] lordcyrus:
Tried their tech support for the third time and they told me that the problem was with their tower nearby causing me to roam in the first place and they are sending some guy out there today or tomorrow to check the tower out.

At this point I'm more than convinced that Sprint has the worst customer service lol. Nothing but problems with them, but their service has given me no problems other than this. I'm about to call back and make them put me on the line with someone who knows terminology and doesn't just tell me to factory reset my phone.

[Solved] Can't install CM6

Hello Everyone.

I tried doing a search, but couldn't come up with the answers that I was looking for, so I'm posting here.

I have an Evo that was upgraded OTA to 2.2. I used the recent exploit to downgrade to 2.1, and then I rooted with unrevoked3, and s-off nand unlock using forever. I have updated to the latest radio.

I installed Fresh Evo fine, but whenever I try installing the latest CM, I get this error
