Like I said on my post above. Also check the q & a thread. Someone has this as a topic and where they say and have a link for the downgraded hboot. I think its in the q and a thread if not its in general..
[EVO 4G Android Development] djafropiq:
sweet thank you very much. ill look for that downgrade walkthrough
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jbroad572:
Testing now, will let you know what I think.
[EVO 4G Android Development] martyzidek:
Here it is for ya.

Make sure your fully rooted and nand unlocked. Should say s-off on hboot.. good luck and have fun
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jbroad572:
Got it going now, definitely a bit of a perfomance decrease, but if the battery doesn't suffer as much, I'd be willing to deal with it.

battery meter

Sorry if it's elsewhere (couldn't find it) but my battery (according to the meter) only charges to 90%, even after fully charging then unplugging and charging some more...is that a bad battery calibration or a trait of this ROM?
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
Benchmarking wise? Most likely. I've never benchmarked. All I really care about is battery life and stability. 7.3 is plenty fast and smooth for me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
The green light comes on at 90 but it should still charge to 100. What kernel are you using?
[EVO 4G Android Development] HiTekRawkus:
Stock CM6 stable build ROM...I just braved the 1,000,000 step rooting process for my OTA 2.2 so I have not tried diff kernels yet. Would you suggest that as the solution?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jbroad572:
Yea, benchmarking and not as smooth as the latest. My battery is still dropping like crazy. In recent experimentation, toggling the data transfer and 3g (maybe) off is what gives me acceptable battery performance. It's just annoying having to hit the button before and after needing internet.

GPS question

Is it me or is the GPS not as accurate on this? Positioning accuracy seems off.

I don't mean to complain, just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fua1:
I was having weirdness until I wiped cache+data (using RA).

Worked after that.

Hope that helps.

is there any way to fix yahoo mail on cyanogen mod, ever since about a week ago the stock email app no longer works with yahoo and I was forced to stop using cyanogen mod and went back to sense.

[EVO 4G Android Development] ryoung07:
This is simply not true as I am having the same issue only with this rom. I've tried the stock kernal, snap 8.1 and snap 8.2 900. Wifi says its connected but no data transfers in any application. I have to manually turn off wifi, wait for 3g to kick in then turn wifi back on and everything is fine. This usually happens after the phone has been asleep for more than an hour. I really love this rom but probably will switch if I can't figure out a solution.

stuck on cyanogen load screen

Hello,

I was just in the process of installing Cyanogen on my Evo 4G and after dealing with a few issues (NAND not unlocked) I got the install to work properly. But after the initial install (first reboot) I get stuck at what I think is the load screen (the blue bot on a skateboard with the comet thing going around it). Been like that for hours and I've tried all sorts of wipes and re-installs.

Thank you ahead of time for your help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vboyz103:
Yep gps is slow in locking so that's prolly what you are seeing is inaccurate. Let it do it's thing for a couple of mins or so.

Go w a program called root explorer thatll help u out more bro :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] 00_MACKIE_00:
You need root explorer.
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
Pull your build prop and edit it. It can be done through root explorer too. Look for a field along the lines of screen density = 240. Set it to whatever you want. I'm running 215

[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:

[EVO 4G Android Development] dan0412:
Thanks.... the setting of 215 makes the graphics a bit 'sharper'.
[EVO 4G Android Development] teshxx:
Use this proggie. http://www.xda-developers.com/android/lcd-density-changer-application-v3-0-released/ . its called LCD density Changer. no need to mess with prop. super easy app.
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
Yeah, smaller images seem to blur a tad bit, like in the noti bar. I tried 200 at first, but found that 215 was a perfect mix between the higher resolution effect, and the keyboard being small to the point I didn't know why I had a 4.3 inch screen :D

that app has been pulled. emailed the dev, no response. Tried one on the interweb, didn't work. Doing it in root explorer is fairly easy anyway.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ViViDboarder:
Native PPI for the EVO is actually 216.9656519 according to some quick math... I'm going to give 217 a shot :D

EDIT: 217 looks pretty good. Everything is crisp and still plenty of room for 5x5 (though I'm using 5x4 since I don't need that many app shortcuts! :D)

[EVO 4G Android Development] atoy74:
Anyone else having battery life issues. A few of us cant seem to stop the battery drain.

I've done the following -

- Battery reconditioning (as per HTC)

- Underclocking the CPU to 800MHz while on and 600MHz off

- Turning off all nonessential items

Doesnt seem to make a difference. Is this an AOSP thing? Any suggestions?

(Yes, I have searched and searched and searched)
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
For sure. If anyone's interested without buying the app I could throw a flashable together to modify this at a few values. Maybe 200 215 n 230 or something.

Mobile from PC36100
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
Get rid of SetCPU completely. See how that works. SetCPU does not play well with all phones. I used it a while back and noticed that it was doing more harm than good on my phone. Try it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DaWhip:
I would rather do that and get my refund from the market. Even better, just a how to on editing the values. I found the build_prop in root explorer but couldn't figure out how to edit it in root explorer, so I just grabbed the app. I am liking the value at 220, so if you do a flashable, maybe 200, 210, 220, 230?

edit: nevermind, someone just posted a pretty simple how-to on it in another thread
[EVO 4G Android Development] eddieroger:
I realize that asking for help in a long thread like this is like yelling for help at a rock concert, but I'll try.

I'm running RC2 right now, and have been unable to upgrade to 6.0.0 stable. I've used Clockwork and manually using RA, wiped each partition many times, repeatedly, and nothing. It get the white EVO screen, then goes black and repeats. I've tried running logcat, but it never even connects. I'm really not sure what else to try, other than restoring back to RC2 and pushing forward with that.

Suggestions? Help?

i had to swap to another rom until the battery issue gets fixed ... it was too bad i couldnt use it as a daily, and i like this rom a lot
[EVO 4G Android Development] teshxx:
i hear ya. i use nightlys and cm6 final. all of have em issues. for me battery wast a biggie since have have 3500mah batter. the main bug for me the wifi droppin in n out. and it just keeps scannin and runs the battery dead. i can understand cm doest have hdmi or 4g, but come on wifi is essential and that for sure should be workin at all times.
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
ok guys, battery is fine with this rom. The discussion could go for days. You people need to remember to do the following. First, but no required, flash your rom with 100% juice! When you flash a rom it deletes the battery stats, so flashing on 50% juice say is a bad idea!

Also, calibrate it. Charge to 100%, turn off, plug back in, wait for green, unplug, plug back in........ and continue a few times.

I had a point I was getting 16 hours out of this rom. I am now flashing a new kernel everyday it seems like so its hard to really judge, but battery life is NOT a flaw of the rom. If you are not happy with it then to each their own, but coming here and saying "until battery gets fixed I will not use it" to me seems like nonsense. Battery on final is better than stock sense roms. Battery with undervolt kernel is MUCH better then any of the latter.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chagio:
Right on. I would also like to add that wifi works perfectly.

It breaks when you flash another kernel over it...or other "fixes".

Just make sure you wipe with amon RA and don't flash anything else other than the cm rom and gapp.
[EVO 4G Android Development] teshxx:
i haven't. i have the same problem on cm6 and 08/31 nightly n 09/01 nightly. believe me i have tried all settings bunch of diff ways, but it is broken. n i have tried with n without titanium backups
[EVO 4G Android Development] xcopmanx2:
Interesting. Have you tried flashing the newest amon RA? 1.8.0?
[EVO 4G Android Development] kudosmog:
*sigh*

Battery life seems to be a flaw of the ROM when I have the problem only with CM6 and no other ROM's.

Now, might be my battery problem lies in using clockwork to wipe.

On one side of the coin you say users must be doing something wrong on their end but until we can figure out what it is we're doing wrong we can't use the ROM. And it's obviously something that's not a problem in other ROM's (at least not for me). I've used BakedSnack, iOS X Chihuahua (which is based off bakedsnack), EViO, ViRusX and Fresh. Ive used different kernels on all my roms. Kings8, Baked, and Snap for when I had CM6. I've flashed almost 10 different kernels to CM6 trying to get it stable.

And flashing the ROM with 100% juice...I'm not so sure that makes a difference. I've conditioned the battery with CM6 and it didn't help. I've flashed ROM's at less than 50% battery and never had a problem.

Guess my next step is to install Amon_RA's recovery and use that to wipe before flashing CM6.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jjday7:
Having the same problem. I tried some settings I got from google and nothing. I might just start using the Yahoo app in the Market. I don't consider it great but yahoo is not my primary email account so I don't really care. If there is a fix, I wouldn't mind going back to the stock email client
[EVO 4G Android Development] htownrep247:
My battery life is actually great with CM6 and the stock kernel. The only prob I have is with my led notification light doing weird things so I just disabled it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] teshxx:
Yea that's what I have. I flashed it when it came out. Fresh works fine 3.1 n the unreleased 3.2 tried a few non sense roms n wifi is good there aswell. Everything is updated except pri bc damn thing just wont update to 1.40 :(

Any suggestions will be appreciated for wifi fix.

Thanx again
[EVO 4G Android Development] dkotoric:
well it is my primary email so right now I'm not able to use CM6 because of this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
How did you disable the LED notification?
[EVO 4G Android Development] krazyflipj:
I don't think it was ever broken. What issues do you have?

*EDIT* Just added my yahoo email account to stock email app without any issues. Syncing worked fine as well....
[EVO 4G Android Development] atoy74:
I appreciate your response but I dont think it can be dismissed that easily. First attempt to fix was calibrating the battery, then all the other steps. Point is I've used many different ROMs and none of them had this runaway battery drain.

To give an example I took my phone off the charger this morning at 830am. By the time I returned to my car at 10am the battery was down to 77%. I received no phone calls during that time. I did get 4 gmails and 1 txt.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Emrys_90:
Um, using the 6.0.0 release and newest GAPPS, I don't seem to have the messaging app. What's up with that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] shawnathan9:
Here's a trick.

Yahoo makes you pay for thougjs services....

However, if you change your yahoo settings to somewhere in Asia, you CAN do POP forwarding and then make it go to your Gmail. Once you do this, simply change your region back to the U.S.

I believe that will solve any forwarding issues with paying for alextra service. Now if you can have gmail day tour emailing from your yahoo..then your set yo go.

..the awesomeness of this smart KB and word corrections...mind not the typos plz
[EVO 4G Android Development] ViViDboarder:
You tried to wipe your battery stats? Also, check to see what is draining your battery. Also, do you have bluetooth on this whole time?

Yesterday I got 24hrs on my 1800mAh battery and I regularly get about 16hrs on my 1500mAh battery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] atoy74:
I'd love to get that kind of battery life. Yes, I wiped the batt stats and bluetooth is on but it's always been that way on other ROMS.

I tried to narrow down the guilty app or service but nothing seems to be out of the ordinary. Major power draw comes from Android System. Spare Parts doesnt help either.

What kernel are you using? I'm stock. Wondering if that could make the difference.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ViViDboarder:
I'm stock as well for now. I use SetCPU with some profiles though. I thought there was some bug with the phone not sleeping when Bluetooth is on though... that may have been fixed. I just toggle it on when I'm in my car and turn it off when I get out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] atoy74:
That was my thought last night cause Spare Parts was saying BT was on 100% of the time. But even with it disabled, I saw serious battery drain.

Regardless, I appreciate the help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Emrys_90:
Does anyone know where the MMS url is stored at so I can alter it in CM6?
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
Doing a proper battery stats wipe is a must. Plus you need to let the rom settle in for a couple of days.

I get superb battery life on CM6.

The other thing that I am doing is charging all my batteries in a wall charger. It makes a HUGE DIFFERENCE no matter what rom or battery you are using. The Evo can't properly charge a battery to save its life.
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
I understand but do you understand that user after user will confirm good battery life. So you can't call it a rom issue if the only difference is the person flashing it from phone to phone. Not saying you're not doing it wronng But its just weird how this issue is so hit or miss.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Jjday7:
Can anyone tell me if it would be possible for me to push the browser from the epic to this Cm6 build? The browser has some weird zooming effects that I am not used to and want to get the smoothness from the epic browser. I posted there also but since this is the rom I am on, I figured it would be better to ask here and see if anyone has pushed any files from other phones to this build

The Epic dump is here and the file is browser.odex under the App Folder

http://ip208-100-42-21.static.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=770762
[EVO 4G Android Development] kudosmog:
user after user is confirming bad battery life too. Something *is* going on. I can understand not calling it a ROM issue since it's not happening to all users, however I can see calling it a ROM issue when no other ROM has the same problem.

Granted, CyanogenRom is the only AOSP ROM I am aware of, so who knows...there may be certain apps that could be causing problems, but only with his ROM.

For example, I run Trillian Beta. Maybe there's a conflict that is causing the phone not to sleep or run the processor at 100% constantly which could explain the battery drain. Unfortunately, Spare parts isn't as much help as I'd like it to be. There is another app that I was going to try out but I haven't had the opportunity and won't until Tuesday.

I'm sure it's not a problem with the ROM in general, but when people say it's a problem with the ROM it's just their perception because other ROM's work without issue. Until the users with the problems pinpoint it, we can't say if it's a ROM issue or not. I know I'm going to keep testing...but I won't be around for a few days =P
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrDSL:
I'm getting pretty decent battery life since I properly wiped my battery stats etc..Normally have no problems making 12 hours through work with around 50% left..

I haven't used my phone much today so that might be why its so high but even so thats still pretty good for some txt msging and emailing here and there. I accidently left my wifi on for a few hours with no wifi around also.

Anyone else getting this? the dialer is using %93 of the battery - running stock kernel :confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
Any person that wants to claim battery issues with this rom do this. Wipe. Install fresh cm6. Don't install your apps and see how that goes. Also if you haven't read the many ways to calibrate your battery before reporting.

Not you necessarily, but so many people come through here on the day they flashed the rom who really are not that familiar with the phone and how it works. I understand it's not happening on other roms but what roms. What kernels are they using. What other tweaks are present. Many many many factors
