[EVO 4G Android Development] warrencarreiro:
What you have to do is charge battery to 100% then go to reboot recovery and wipe cache then go to advanced and wipe Davik cache and finally while there reset battery. At this point you should have great batter life but you still need to let it drain down until it turns off. Then charge to 100% again. That is how you do it.

You install snap? How is it running with 6.1 I thought it was not compatable
[EVO 4G Android Development] EVOsean:
Ok heres my problem. I flashed this and the Dialer doesnt work. Then I tried to go to my contacts from the dockbar, and it freezes. So I flash back to Fresh, and my message service FC on me. Yes, I backed up, wiped, then flashed. Any ideas what the problem could be. Ive always had problems with CM. CM6 wouldnt flash at all
[EVO 4G Android Development] paranoid android85:
are there any kernels right now that are compatible with cm6.1 until snap graces us with a new one?
[EVO 4G Android Development] rockky:

Snap7.6 Turbo

Gonna give the CFS version of Snap with Turbo enabled a test drive... I've heard that it has an issue with bluetooth, but since I've never used BT anyway... Heck, I live in a non-4G area and have HDMI cables for my device that I've never even tried using yet as well.

Here goes...

***UPDATE***

Never even got to the bootanimation... Stuck on Splash Screen...

Going back to Stock RC 6.1
[EVO 4G Android Development] eeeeeeeeek:
Flash Will Only Boot Into Recovery

So I flashed cm6.1 and it loads up the splash screen, reboots, loads the splash screen then goes back to recovery. Odd, As always I assume it's my phone or that I've done something wrong. So for ****s and giggles and did the most recent RUU, re-rooted and tried again. Same Results....boggle. Anyone else encountered this? I checked through some posts but didn't find it. Thanks

Hboot?

sorry to repost again but no one answered this: do we need to "downgrade" the hboot to install RC1? i currently have hboot .97
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
no need to ask several times. simply prepare for it. or TRY it. you will know immediately, as the flash wont even begin as the error happens at the very beginning.

Running 6.1 with stock kernel and just found an unfortunate bug :(

I was very happy to get 35 hours out of my battery (I use Ultimate Juice) but I just realized my phone is not waking up for incoming calls. If it's awake already, or if I disable Juice Defender, they come through just fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
the way i'm reading this statement, i believe the "unfortunate bug" belongs to ultimate juice
[EVO 4G Android Development] 81FSUnole:
no need for that. i have "prepared". i realize w/ the releases prior you need to change the hboot. there was no mention of it w/ the newest relase, so i was just asking a relevant question. "just try it" is not something i do w/ a phone that cost as much as this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stewroids:
I changed the entire status bar/pull down bar black, but the Widgets that are there seemed to have a outer layer of white glow. No idea how to change it, are there any jpg files I can change, or a setting in Cyanogenmod Settings I can look at? It looks very blurry, and a cream white - very disgusting with a black background!
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
you obviously have no clue. i will just leave it at that. act like a jackass & see how much help you get. have a good day.
[EVO 4G Android Development] icm714:
Sorry to say But Drew is right Just try it, if you brick you phone thats what insurance is for im sure you have a brain of an Adult Man to come up with a story to get a new phone. and also there probably a fix if you brick the phone its called google it can be y our best friend.

and drew is a great help here hes not gonna tell you something wrong that will F up your phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
appreciate the kind words brudda, +1 i would not suggest something that would brick your phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] paranoid android85:
lmao...tension is thick in here. short answer no you dont have to change hboot...they changed that in the past few nightly's leading up to cm6.1
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
are you sure? i think thats contrary to a few statements i've seen from some other users... not the part about the nightly's but i swear i've seen people say with the RC1 they had to downgrade.. which surprised me

but honestly they were probably trying 6.0 RC1 roflmao. i agree with the statement that bootloader checking was disabled in all the nightly's leading up to 6.1 RC1, so i dont see why they would have added checking back in for the RC. hence the comment "TRY IT"...

Nightlies

Sure its been asked a lot... but... gotta ask anyway... have the Nightlies been halted/discontinued?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
i believe there has been a code freeze so there are no new features being added, but they will continue to work out existing bugs. perhaps there will be an RC2 w/ fixes leading up to the final "stable" release.

i do believe _shift posted a timeline or something that might give you more information..

Fc when I go into sound settings. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] MEGADEAD:
Hello, I am new here at the XDA forums.

I flashed 6.1 RC1 with snap 7.6 and the gapps zips. I get the the blue android on the skateboard and the orbiting blue thing. It just stays there, how long should it stay at that screen?
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
on first boot it will take a couple minutes. did you do a complete wipe/reset & clear both caches first?

if it doesnt ever boot up, make sure you wipe/reset & clear caches. then you may want to:

flash cm6.1 rc1

flash gapps

reboot

flash snap kernel.

one note, your bluetooth probably will not work if you flash snap kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MEGADEAD:
I will wipe the caches and flash again. Thank you.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Air One:
I believe my bar looks as you described as well. Does it appeared blurred on the inactive widget icons and does it clear up once the widget icon is activated?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nebenezer:
I don't know. It always worked fine on 6.0, and it hasn't been updated..

Also, unrelated, I'm getting a "rogue" notification sound (4 ascending xylophone type notes). I have no idea what our correlates with, or how to manage it. It's not unpleasant just curious.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
understandable, but perhaps with the new framework in cm6.1 aka the new version of android it

does

need updated. know what i mean
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
hey quick question for you 2.. have you guys rebooted since changing the colors in cm settings?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nebenezer:
HA, good point. Too bad the dev is notoriously unavailable..

ps. 6.1 rox :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] rockky:
Reports of this.??

Started rebooting sporadically
[EVO 4G Android Development] MEGADEAD:
It worked, thank you so much :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
nah mine never reboots on its own. i'm almost always fully overclocked on the stock kernel. ? for ya, using stock kernel or snap/kk? too far overclocked by chance?
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
hey good to hear. thanks for reporting back

Hmmm....SnapTurbo + SetCpu works fine for me on CM6.1.

2200+ Quadrant score and everything is running awesome....:)
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
you are one of the few it works for. & by

everything

running awesome does that include bluetooth? what about any "hanging at the white screen"??

just for grins, i've cleaned up my sd card & i'm going to try snap with turbo again..

of course after my nandroid backup is complete :D

i'm running stock cm6 kernel right now after last night's build, just to see how it feels like in everyday usage. i never tried baked snacks, but i am very interested to see their take with 2.2 and what battery stats they can pull out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] myndwire:
Something's making that happen then. I run the same ROM on the same phone and I get great battery life. Same thing. No GPS/WiFi/4G, off the charger since 7:30am, and it's now 11:10am.. 75% left.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cmart4:
I just flashed 9.6 baked snack rom because I use my evo as my music player/streamer. everything i've researched so far indicates the sound degradation is form 2.2 froyo itself (be it wired or wireless bt), not cmod 6.

music quality is too important to me so i quess i will haveta stick to 2.1 till someone figures out a fix. I've anyone has any suggestions, please let me know
[EVO 4G Android Development] steb0ne:
My Pandora sounds great too... Did u by chance check the Pandora menu options? Mine was initially set to "normal" cell network audio quality...changed it to "high", now sounds just fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thenewguy821:
I would have to say Yes, WiFi-N is enabled. I have my home router set to N-only, and have no problem accessing with CM6.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BB15:
Is there a particular reason why I can't remove ROM Manager? I use Amon's recovery and don't particularly care for Clockwork. Therefore I have no need for ROM Manager, so I'd just prefer to get rid of it.

Also, on a possibly related note. Last night I tried to load up one of my old backups and it wouldn't load. I got an error saying I had to do it via adb. This was the first time I have had this happen. Is CM-6 somehow tied to Clockwork, messing up Amon?

Edit: Nevermind I got it figured out. Used Root Explorer instead of ES or Astro.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Issey_phresh:
Yes agreed that is totally unacceptable and no I wasn't joking...applied a few fixes/changes... will report back with new stats today...otherwise I will definitely be calling asurion...thanx
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
Please report back with your findings I am very interested in the battery savings difference btw both kernels.

As far as Baked Snacks goes, I'm not a dev so I can't speak to what Hero exactly did in that rom but whatever he did do, it was magic. In tandem with that 3.6.4 kernel, the EVO gave me Blackberry like battery life. I found myself trying to kill the battery just to see how long it would go. It would not die!

Edit: Just to give some context. I consider myself to be a power user. It is nothing for me to attempt to get 4 hours a day of screen on time including lots of 3G browsing, GTALK on always, twitter updating every hour, weather updating every hour, TONS of emails, a couple texts, etc. and Baked Snacks handled all of that like a damn champ.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Issey_phresh:
Agreed...same here...what's the point of having a super phone if ur not gonna use it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dodgeboy:
I tried this rom yesterday, for the first time. Did a full wipe, etc. A process called "mediaserver" is running wild on the phone (75%+ utilization). The phone will actually get hot when not in use, and the battery only lasts about 3 hours from a full charge. The process seems to come and go, but is always there for quite some time after a reboot. If I could do away with that process, I would be a dailiy user of this rom. It's fantastic other than that issue.

I also had a few acore crashes, but it may be related to that process.

I have very few apps installed. Nothing music or media related except Pandora. I uninstalled Pandora and the process continued. I don't use my phone to listen to music stored locally on the SD card--just pandora occasionally.

I should also mentioned that I searched this thread for "mediaserver" and came up with nothing. Please forgive me if this has been discussed, but this thread grows at such a rate that it seems impossible to read it all.

Dave
[EVO 4G Android Development] Issey_phresh:
Come on craig no one is expecting their batt to last all day...but 3 to 4 hours is just bad...plain and simple...but imma gonna post my next run....how do I take screen shots...anyone?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tonyh703:
My display is using 70% of the battery and Media is using 10%. I have no media applications but I believe this is related to the auto updating of apps. ROM is great though I am loving it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
i definitely will update with results tonight. wow, i didn't know baked snacks was *that* good. i can't wait to see what hero comes up with with 2.2. i can't go back to 2.1 to test out baked snacks lol.

i consider myself a heavy user too. if work wasn't so busy most of the time, i'd probably be on my phone more too. i tried to replicate that heavy use as of late. what i love about cm6 is that, when i do use my phone for music/email/texting/internet/etc, battery goes down. however, during idle, it *stays*. i don't know what happens, but it idles like a beast, doesn't budge for hours. i am very impressed.

i agree too. i hear about people pushing 30 hours, and sometimes 90+ hours (O.o) and i'm left wondering if they even use their phone as it was intended.

i listen to locally stored music as well as pandora, and i believe it's mediaserver that handles audio. someone please correct me if i'm wrong, but i get a higher percentage of mediaserver being used for battery whenever i have music playing, locally or pandora.

edit: http://androidboss.com/mediaserver-for-android/ ...this was informative.

[EVO 4G Android Development] HondaCop:
I use Root Explorer to access /system/app and delete the apk from there. Make sure you enable R/W access via the top right button on Root Explorer, so you are able to delete it. Thank me later. lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] Aridon:
Well it depends. 4 hours on Constant 4g is actually decent. 4 hours if you didn't actually top off your device (the rapid 10% drop because of the lack of trickle charge) with very heavy use isn't bad either. I don't think you can get 6 hours of constant use on the evo without plugging in.

Obviously everyone has different usage. Some people think 30 min of calls and 30 min of browser is heavy. Others don't have a clue how to log out of gtalk, have face book set for 15 minute updates and the same with twitter / email.apk.

Also auto brightness doesn't seem too work well on this rom. My device spends far more time on full so I adjust it manually with the widget.

See the problem?
[EVO 4G Android Development] rjacobs:
Been on this rom since about 2 oclock yesterday. I have flashed every nightly since they started coming out.

Anybody have problems with losing your notification sounds? I will look at my phone and see the LED blinking, however I would not have heard anything and it may have been 20-30 minutes since the SMS or email showed up. This did not happen on any of the nightly's. The last time I had this issue was when I was running either the rooted stock or Fresh 0.5.3(cant remember which at this point) and swapping roms solved the problem. CyanoRC1 was on a full wipe and install so i dont believe it to be a corruption error or anything like that. If I do a battery pull(normal reset doesnt seem to do anything) the notification sounds will start back up, but eventually will disappear again. Normal phone ringers always work.

I am getting outstanding battery life, better than any other rom so far. Although I will admit I am not a power user by any means and I need my phone to last all day since I do not have a way to plug it in at will during most days. I have been unplugged since about 3pm yesterday and I am down to 42%. This was with a few phone calls yesterday and today, a ton of SMS, about 2 hours of Pandora streaming, some internet usage, and a bit of game playing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] LoveisPeace2012:
All I have to say is I love this rom looks so clean
[EVO 4G Android Development] RickBaller:
I've tried to change the LED notification color for SMS messages in the settings but it's not working. Are those colors not truly available on the Evo?
[EVO 4G Android Development] casual864:
I got 2400 on quadrant with snap Turbo enabled. To bad Bluetooth does not work yet, but everything else is smooth.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stroths:
I had that issue after doing a batch restore from titanium backup. I think I restored something I shouldn't have. Wiped data, cache, etc and reflashed. Was more selective on my batch restore and all was good.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
ok ok ok.. this has me kinda surprised.. i got Turbo working on 6.1 RC1.

i originally had it enabled on a nightly from 9/17 & setup many friends devices with that config. i loved it. but my obsession with the latest & greatest had me flashing nightlys every day & i couldn't ever get turbo to work like it had been. basically the quadrant scores wouldn't reflect turbo was enabled.

so i started scanning thru my sd card for some snap files that might have been left over, which could potentially cause problems. found some snap related stuff & deleted everything i found. i then performed a nandroid backup.

i flashed Snap kernel from that same recovery session after clearing Cache & Dalvik Cache. i rebooted the phone after flashing. Set the device for Airplane mode. Proceeded to Enable Snap Turbo. somewhere around step 2 i believe, it started force closing pretty much every running app i had, which since i didn't wipe/reset there was a bunch running. Per Snap directions, i let the phone sit without touching it & finally it rebooted. Booted up fine without hanging at the white screen for one, which i thought was a good sign.

so i proceeded to run a quadrant test. this is while overclocked at 1113mhz. first test at 1800+ which i always disregard as the first test is always lower than the rest. so i ran another, 2300+ score on quadrant! ran it again, over 2300 again. keep in mind this is barely overclocked & with EVERYTHING under the sun running. this isn't a clean config, i've got a crap ton of apps installed & running. oc'd to 1152mhz has scores over 2500 on quadrant. very cool.

this makes me very happy, as i really dont ever use bluetooth (i hate BT headsets) but on the rare occasion of sending a file to someone nearby.. which i will just use gmail or another method since bluetooth is now inoperable.

thanks for reading, hope i didn't bore you to death! lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] CheesyNutz:
if bluetooth is all that breaks im down for that i don't use that much anyways
[EVO 4G Android Development] luisrcastillo:
If you hang at white screen pull battery and try again. Give about 3 minutes. Try it a few times.

That happened to me when I had snap. I got rid of it because of Bluetooth and camcorder fc after recording video.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
yea BT is all it breaks from my experience, that & hanging at the white screen sometimes

no offense, but you sound like tech support for a big corp... WAIT 3 MINUTES & PLUG IT BACK IN! bahahahahha.. joking *all in fun*

i'll go out on a limb here & say waiting 3, 5, 10, 30 minutes will have 0 effect on whether or not it hangs at the white screen. i do believe "trying it a few times" is necessary if this is happening. at least thats been my experience.

i do remember this being a big issue after trying to flash a new nightly, but i'm pretty sure it happened on simple reboots as well.

just to make sure, i'm going to reboot my device a few times now & see if there is ANY hanging at all. let y'all know in a bit

EDIT: first reboot = fine, 2nd reboot = white screen hanging

pulling the battery now. i will have to determine which is more important to me, normal reboots or higher quadrant scores :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] abramme824:
i'm getting 2631 with cm6.1, running on the snap turbo enabled kernel, and set cpu set to 1.19 with conservative scaling. I don't have or use bluetooth so its a non issue. ohhhh man I cant wait till the new snap kernel makes its way
[EVO 4G Android Development] suprano:

[EVO 4G Android Development] jwwolfe77:
Stupid question. I just flashed my first Cyanogen rom and im trying to theme it. Is there a special way to theme it cause if i just flash the theme i get the endless boot screen. I am trying to use the cm6 epic theme.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Stajdanley:
Agreed. Best I've had since I bought my Evo.

@drdrewdown you're making it hard to hold out for an updated snap kernel. Thanks for being a guinea pig and posting some specifics.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
inside cm settings you can look under user interface for ways to change colors of status bar, notification window, clock color, txt colors etc... check that out & then get back to us if its not what you wanted. personally, its one of the things that makes CM6 so great. endless customization
[EVO 4G Android Development] jwwolfe77:
Anybody? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Ive done a search and ive checked out the wiki.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
hahah, basically 2 reasons not to use Snap

w/Turbo

Snap by itself breaks Bluetooth.

w/ Turbo enabled it can cause the "hanging at the white screen" issue that many have come across on a reboot.

I too

cannot

wait for Snap Turbo to be updated. i still havent made up my mind if i want to live with the white screen deal or go back to stock kernel. honestly pretty happy with stock kernel, but its hard to turn down ~2500 quadrant scores LOL
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
i already replied to you.
[EVO 4G Android Development] AvatarOfFrost:
how did you oc's to 1152? setcpu wont let me go over 1113. and i believe this is snap limitations.

my scores are always 22xx. never hit 2500.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wmdunn:
The problem is that cm6.1 and cm6 have different kernels (framework), so any theme designed for cm6 is going to boot loop on you. I know that the "Nextang" theme has been updated for cm6.1 and I think "Matted Blues" might work. Both can be found in the Theme and App forum.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
uhmmm.. snap 7.6 CFS allows overclocking to 1190mhz. i dont set it to that due to stability reasons but it should do that for you too.. the only thing i can think of, is perhaps you need to "autodetect" again inside the main window of setCPU. menu>device selection & autodetect speeds... let us know if that works or not
