PLEASE stop posting confirmation links and download link troubles.

If you're donating via paypal (and I believe both devs are using paypal) you have their e-mail addresses in case you have issues. Do you HONESTLY suppose damageless or treve are going to spend hours combing through dozens of pages just to find confirmation links and people asking why they haven't gotten their downloads yet? All you're all doing is adding pointless posts to a thread that's already gotten too full of off topic crap (like this post, for example).

Sorry for the OT post.

That's nice but I'd like to keep root, thanks.

Ava's full Froyo is out and claims its 100% working. DAMAGE........DAMAGE........DAMAGE.........DAMAGE! Can't wait for DC's full Froyo. Beta 2 will do for now though. :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] athlet1c:
Using the AVa Froyo now appears to works well. The other Devs are going to have a field day with that. Amazing Forum
[EVO 4G Android Development] dglowe343:
Test any benchmarks yet?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jkinnison90:
On avas Rom I just got 1100 quadrant and get up to 40 MFLOPS.. that's with the HTC kernel and no over clocking etc..
[EVO 4G Android Development] dglowe343:
Not too bad for the stock kernel. Its awfully quiet in here being that its the first night Froyo Sense was released.
[EVO 4G Android Development] runner77:
I agree.

Treve.......when will 3.5 get the updates?
[EVO 4G Android Development] skantman69:
thats because they are all over in the general section *****ing about losing root by upgrading...LOL
[EVO 4G Android Development] athlet1c:
LO.... hilarious. I will check benchmarks etc in a few as Im upgrading a Radio

[EVO 4G Android Development] rain91:
Trying Ava's official 2.2 ROM. Not bad, makes me crave an updated DamageControl 3.5 even more. Gotta get some DC special sauce.
[EVO 4G Android Development] snandlal:
Might as well keep this DEV-ROM private:rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Android Development] dpilcher:
OK...so I wiped until it hurt and then flashed Net's rooted 2.2 build and everything went fine. I recovered my goodies through TB and everything came back, but no wifi tethering. I then rebooted into recovery and flashed Ava's 2.2 build on top without any paperwork (wipe) and came up like a champ and am typing this through the working wifi tether to my laptop. I then added Net's kernal that was updated by someone else for FroYo and am getting 52fps with 3.2std and mid 40's in linpack.

What kernel did u use....is it the one that breaks the back camera?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dpilcher:
Yep...that's the one..pretty colors though...lol

Interesting the differences in "opportunities" when mixing and matching different builds of what does/doesn't function properly. Good news is that it is that much closer to the Damaged version having it ALL. As for me and tonight....too tired and don't what to do something I shouldn't with pairing others work together. Have a great evening fella's and check in on what's new tomorrow.

I believe you have to go to settings, call, voicemail, and change the number from *86 to your phone number
[EVO 4G Android Development] FunnyorDead:
Hey, that's great if it works for you.

For me, if you get past the 'gotta have what's new, now' mentality, and really evaluate Froyo on the merits, there is *absolutely* no reason to rush a half-assed upgrade.

Yeah, Froyo is supposed to be faster. But most of us on EVO aren't exactly crying over speed issues. Yeah, its lets you move apps to SD natively. DC lets you do that seamlessly. Yeah, there are some nifty new apps. None of them are game changers.

As for me, I'm keeping my stable, great battery life, Damage 3.23 ROM in place, until Damage 3.5 is fully cooked. Damage and Treve have a proven track record of high quality releases with minimal problems that get fixed fast. Other folks pushing nonsense like 'fully working - except for the back camera' - well, they can keep those.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MCLFLN:
I agree with a lot of what you are saying - however - after being on Ava-FroyoV3 over night - there is no reason not to install it. Everything is working. That being said - the moment they release Damage Control - I will be back in a heartbeat because I love their ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomApollyon:
I don't see any reason to have set up my settings/apps again considering that there are no real game changing improvements over what we already have in DC 3.2.3. Heck, the only real improvement that matters to me so far that I've found, in Froyo, is the market auto-updating. Now when DC Froyo is done, I'll take the plunge, but until then, pass.
[EVO 4G Android Development] captaincrunch:
Is it normal to go out of state and have internet work but sms/mms fail every time? I am curious as to if this is an issue with the DC beta or the wacky towers in my vacation spot. I've never had this issue before with Sprint. (went from st louis, MO to taos, NM).
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sirchuk:
Better video quality, improved performance, updated market, fastest mobile browser, flash 10.1, uhm, I think im missing something else too.

Anyhow, 2.2 is a milestone release, not sure why you would think its no big deal. The ava Rom is a rooted stock Rom and runs great!

As soon as DC gets a stable, working Rom I'll switch of course..

Posted via XDA Android app from Evo
[EVO 4G Android Development] phonefixdfw:
have you not heard of titanium backup? because it takes about 45 seconds to "set up your apps and settings" after flashing a new rom
[EVO 4G Android Development] runner77:
2.2 was released last night and not a word from the DC folks????

Maybe a "were are working on it" post.....???........something???

Edit: Not trying to be rude or demanding with my post. Just really really really excited for the DC Froyo ROM (non-beta).
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mad06STi:
I wasn't aware it was there jobs to work on this every minute of their lives, and even if it was, I don't think informing you on every activity is a part of the job. Common sense is what you're missing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomApollyon:
Yes, I purchased it.

I understand that on paper those improvements look great, but the reality of the situation is that there is little to no usable difference between DC 3.2.3 and stock Froyo.

I also just flashed Ava's just to compare. The browser seems about the same(possibly a tad faster but nothing earth shattering), and it has flash just like my DC3.2.3 did. Ava's 2.2 benchmarks much faster although I see absoloutely no difference in actually USING the phone. Frankly my DC 3.2.3 with netarchy's latest kernel actually seems a lot smoother.
[EVO 4G Android Development] clamknuckle:
Why are we having this argument in a development thread?

The entire point of being here is having your phone the way you want it. If you want 2.1, great. If you want 2.2, great.

There is no wrong choice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomApollyon:
very true, I will discontinue it :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] TheBundo:
I totally agree. Sticking with 3.2.3 for now, no rush. I don't need to spend my weekend trying to fix what I already have working
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigmoogle:
I tried out the rooted 2.2 and another Froyo ROM. They were okay but I returned to DC 3.2.3. 4G was a bit stronger and things seemed a bit faster/smoother but not everything worked. With the radios and kernels flying around, I decided to just wait it out.

I'm still a noob and it doesn't take much to confuse me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] hurricanern:
I agree, I ran dc on my hero and now my Evo, donated to both developers for privilege of testing 3.5 and will be back to dc when they have worked their magic on the official froyo. That being said stock froyo is much smoother. I know the linpack is the same yada yada, back up 3.2x or 3.5 whatever your using and try it out. Web pages that don't have flash all over them load instantly, don't like it go back. I understand loyalty to the dev but until you try it you are gonna sound.... well anyway try it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wservers:
Do I need to install a different kernel for 3.5 beta to work? 3.23 works perfect for me. I wipe caches and flash beta, but I get fc with everything and no market, no gmail and other things missing.

Any help is appreciated.

Did you flash 3.5 twice?

[EVO 4G Android Development] tatnai:
did you do a complete factory wipe (including data)

TrevE/Damage, thx for all the work. i assume the lull in news is because you are working with the newly released pre-release official sprint/htc rom as a base. . . can you drop us a little love/hint on progress/timeline?

thx again for your hard work.

[EVO 4G Android Development] evoky:
I have a question.... I rooted my Evo and did a nand backup up of the OS. I used Damage Control for a few weeks and really liked it. Over the weekend I installed the 2.2 release leaked out by HTC....losing root. Is it possible to go back to my nand backup regaining root? Or will going backwards ruin my phone? My nand backup was of the stock 2.1 rooted and not DC.
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
If you installed the unrooted 2.2 you're screwed unless someone finds a way to root the thing. You won't even be able to boot back into Clockwork or RA recovery to restore the nandroid in the first place.
[EVO 4G Android Development] evoky:
Thanks for the quick reply!
[EVO 4G Android Development] IcOpRo:
The developers will find a solution don't worry, just sit tight, you'll get you're root back.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Aridon:
If you installed the rooted one you are fine. If you didn't then you will have to wait until the 2.2 version is rooted as the update changes more than is included in a nandroid backup.
[EVO 4G Android Development] playbeasy:
Can't wait to see what Damage and Trev put out next. 3.2.3 DC has become my all time favorite. For those of you thinking of going to the stock ROM just keep holding on. It'll be worth it when it gets here.

The 2.2 is not even OTA yet. So if you found that update you had to HAVE been told you would lose root. HAD TO

[EVO 4G Android Development] RikusHaven:
Not here, kind of glad they aren't pushing it that much, got to my uncle's EVO today and rooted it and put CyanogenMod 6 Nightly, and he was quite happy, I also rooted a Moto Droid of another uncle and put CyanogenMod 6 RC2 on his, but I was really happy that I was able to get two their phones before any major updates were being pushed to either phone, now they are enjoying CyanogenMod. :] They aren't big fans of Sense, however I quite like Sense to some extent, so I'm keeping an eye on DamageControl 3.5, I stopped using beta2 because of various reasons, and just waiting for them to drop a new update, really loved DamageControl 3.2.3. :] Glad I donated.

[EVO 4G Android Development] sudhirkhanger:
Is this Sense based?

Is this better than Baked Snack or Fresh or Ava? Considering i like DC 3.2.3 version.

Are kernal version Snapv4 working on this release or it is recommended to stay with snapv1?

I am waiting for these answers so i can donate and get the 3.5. Please help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] OneStepAhead:
Well ROMs are a personal preference kinda thing, so is it better? I think so, but Fresh is damn good as well. Ava, never tried it, but I'm sure someone will tell you thats the best rom. The snap kernels are for CM6, not DC. I'm sure we will see a DC rom based on the official OTA at some point this week. Yes, it is Sense based.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sudhirkhanger:
Thanks. Donated..waiting for the download link.

Does 3.5 comes with custom kernel? Has anybody tried Netarchy's new kernel?

[EVO 4G Android Development] TrevE:
coming soon :)

Now you beta testers (god theres alot of you) We need constructive feedback. We have setup a google project. This is our first shot at this so I hope this works out well (hence the smaller beta group)

Discuss issues here PLEASE first. If you find something that is a problem we have setup a google project page.

http://code.google.com/p/damagecontrol/

The issues tab PLEASE only use for verified reproducible issues. In the subject we are looking for lines like

DamageControl 3.5 - I get cancer when i use it.

We will both get instant alerts on it and will put status's on it. If someone already submitted an issue that your experiencing just star it and you will get updates as well. We will let you know a timeframe to be resolved.

Any FC's we will require logcat traces before we can accept them. Be as descriptive as possible please.

TrevE/damage, would you mind if we sent a services.jar to the person who created the battery percent mod to get one up for your 3.5 Froyo?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SharkUW:
I don't really care what they do. It was an honest question directed at the devs since it appears to be a change in their position and I'm curious.

That said, they are redistributing copyrighted software and charging for it which enters it's own legal issues.

Not that I have a problem with that either. I encourage pirating.
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
They're not, and before you begin quoting legal issues, you should seriously look up the issues you're quoting. It's obvious you have no idea what you're talking about.
[EVO 4G Android Development] OneStepAhead:
i hope most of you are kidding about donating $1.. i felt like a jackass donating $5 to each dev! this is something i use every day and spend countless hours toying around with, to me, its worth considerably more then $5. I owned an iphone for years and never paid for a single app even though i had hundreds. since i got the EVO I've been donating to as many dev's as possible, simply because the Android devs are much cooler, it seems so many of them make their work available for free! I'm also much more inclined to buy an app when I know I can uninstall within 24 hours and get a refund. pretty awesome feature of the market! just my 2 "sense" (get it.. like sense ui?.. ok sorry ill work on my material!)
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
PLEASE!! dont entertain these ppl, If they dont want to pay let them sit back and watch us talk about the ROM.... its not worth the argument and no one will win because NO ONE is RIGHT! :mad:
[EVO 4G Android Development] SnoopDawg:
I did happen to have stage 4 cancer 4 years ago. But as much as I use this EVO it makes me nervous. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] TrevE:
thats fine, we have a very heavily modified framework.jar & services.jar from whats floating around so im sure it will be different.

Were sending our rom out to some skinners as well with this beta so hopefully we can get some themes for the final release :)

we needed testers. We started too many new things with this build to open it to the world. Your not paying for software, were releasing it free as always. Were building a BETA group that will get stuff first. Its our way of giving back to those who have been great with us, and it lightens the load a bit. For those that dont want to donate just wait out the weekend. Its not the end of the world, youve waited this long right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] itscaleb:
You said that it was directed at the devs, this is what TrevE said in the 3.2.x forum here:

Both make sense and I myself understand why you would do this. Unfortunately, by accepting todays donations (like the one I just made) don't be surprised if you get tons of complainers saying your doing it to make money. Again I understand and am not complaining but you might want to be careful with accepting new donations.

Great job damage and treve a lot of us have been waiting for this ))) can't wait to give it a run

TrevE:

And i see it both ways too. we will _never_ be just about the money (although beer never hurts dev work). We did get alot of naysay during those few builds that were buggy last time and are trying to find a way to fix that. Donators also will be sent out my gtalk addy for bug reports, thats just something I cannot offer to everyone obviously. Also were taking stuff from back on the hero days. even if its $1, for something you use as a daily driver i dont feel is unreasonable.

To anyone thats upset about the decision- I foresee this being out of beta very quickly (a few days at most). You will end up with a more stable product because of this, and honestly youve waited this long, if your against the donation thing wait it out a day or two, we wont leave anyone out or draw this out longer than it has to be.

Browsing the google code page and saw the wimax_mtd command reminded me of this.

An easy way to check your wimax version and MAC address is from a shell (either adb or terminal) using getprop:

getprop persist.wimax.fw.version

And

getprop persist.wimax.0.MAC

it's an easy way to find this info without reading through pages of output.

Also, "getprop" without any arguments will list all properties.

Root access is not needed for this command.

Netarchy's kernel is awesome, and he has been releasing DC compatible versions along the way. Haven't tried it with the 3.5 beta though, because I switched to the "official" 2.2 for the time being. Not sure if DC comes with a custom kernel. I doubt it will come with a OC/UV kernel standard, since not everyone will want one.
