yea the whole over-clocking may cause some battery drain.
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeyldev:
ok, well thanks for all of the interesting responses. I've been testing the new beta warm and you no longer have to flash launchers and other customizations.

I'm not so concerned with how it works, just the performance and battery life. It could work off magic juju beans for all I care. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] amdchip:
Did you backup with the same recovery you are trying to restore with?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dp92180:
First off, great rom!

I have tried searching with no luck. I was using Florian's scrollable contact widget beefier flashing this rom and the contact pictures from facebook would show up in the widget, but ever since flagging Cyanogen 6.1 only contract pics on my phone (not facebook) come through.

Is there a setting some where for this issue?
[EVO 4G Android Development] midnitecoupe:
I have had that happen to me before when my battery was low. Make sure your battery is above 30% when restoring.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DraginMagik:
overclocking will not increase your battery life.

perhaps try using the 'conservative' governor instead of the 'interactive' one

have you calibrated your battery?

have you wiped battery stats?

also, perhaps you are aware but the way your post reads i just want to verify that you are familar with 90% rule. once the device hits 100% it will stop charging and start draining battery until it reaches 90%, then it will start charging again. this is a HTC hardware 'feature'. thus, you cannot accurately extrapolate your overall expected battery life from the first 10%...you may have only had 95% charge.
[EVO 4G Android Development] amdchip:
I don't think any sense rom will ever get better battery life or better performance than a properly installed and configured CM rom.

rofl.. :D

aren't m4a files itunes-specific? if so, they probably won't work on the evo. try to convert them to mp3s.

that might because titanium (i believe) restores to a different location than where the market checks the apps (i think it's /system/apps, but i'm not sure, can someone confirm?). i get this error too, so i manually update. i'm hoping that once these cm6 builds settle down a bit, i'll move the apks to the proper locations and let froyo back up and update natively.

edit:

yea, i noticed higher numbers on my benchmarks too. i don't have exact numbers to post because i forgot to note them down. and also, yes, those commits will be compiled in tonight's build.
[EVO 4G Android Development] luisrcastillo:
It made it into today's build
[EVO 4G Android Development] truedis:
Thanks for the tip, that worked. For any newbs like me, I opened root explorer, went to /system/apps, found Titanium Backup, long-pressed and deleted it, and then rebooted and installed from the market. Worked like a charm.
[EVO 4G Android Development] awesomeindeed:
Yes, I did check the high quality option. Slacker is the same way, they both sound awful over 3G. This is not a complaint but its an issue I've been able to replicate on three Evos now (of the three I was able to get my hands on) and its the same on the nightlies as well as RC1.

I still love FroYo and cyanogen does a fantastic job (ran his ROMs on my Nexus and loved them), these are just little quirks that need to be worked out before I can call it my every day ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] HondaCop:
HOLY CRAP! I didn't notice another 07-27 build was out. Gonna download and flash it now. Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Fixter:
Is this one like an RC1-2? If so, why not wait until night and flash the even newer one that comes out in about 6 hours?
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
just noticed it myself... can someone link the commits done for this build? i don't have my laptop with the link here at work.

edit. wait.. nvm found it from an above post.. durr.. sorry.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tonyh703:
complainers?

Most of us are not complaining, we are coming to a forum to do what a forum was created for. People are simply voicing changes, differences, anomolies and any other 'weird' things they see... some people will try dumb these people down, while other give respectable answers. YES, I know this is an RC, YES, I know it is devved for a wide range of phones, YES, I know the power optimization is not fully optimized on the EVO, YES, YES YES. I am not complaining in any way, I respect those of you who replied with respectable answers, the rest of you ....
[EVO 4G Android Development] HondaCop:
Not really. it's just a newer build of RC1. Vives en PR?
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
http://github.com/CyanogenMod/htc-kernel-supersonic/commits/master

GPU memory bumped up

some camera fixes

quallcom voltages

bluetooth sleep bug fix

meh.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kccasey:
I downloaded to the computer then copied directly over to my MicroSD then put it in the phone and turned on the phone in recovery mode. and attempting to install that way. I downloaded twice incase the file got corrupted or something. When I mentioned file sizes, it lead me to believe that another one had to be installed first. I thought that this was an update file. Kinda like Windows, how you can't supposivly just install a fresh copy using just an Upgrade. You would first need to install a prior version THEN install the upgrade. Know what I mean?
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
What are your opinions on setcpu guys? Yall use it?

I've heard complaints about battery consumption with profiles, so I uninstalled to test it for myself, but I coulda sworn I was getting better life with underclocking profiles..
[EVO 4G Android Development] effluent:
Yep, tried twice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xcopmanx2:
My only remaining issues are these: 1) the heavily discussed battery issues, which maybe those Qualcomm voltages will help with slightly and 2) audio through my bluetooth sounds like butt. :( Otherwise, this is the best ROM I have ever used. And I have sent a beer (or a few) your way via donation.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Slow Internet:
Can we get the back button enabled in the music app? I hate that to get to the library screen I have to press menu and select it.

Edit: I don't mean to sound rude. Let me echo the rest of the community in saying how awesome the rom is.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kccasey:
WOW!! This thread is just TOO Damn busy!! lol Hard to keep up..lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] Fixter:
Yeah that my way of referring to a newer build of the RC1. And yeah. I'm from Hormigueros. I'm gonna wait for tonight's build either way.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
why meh? i'd say those are battery and performance affecting parameters, no? not to mention the camera gets improved? maybe i'm just a sucker for any sort of change :p

oh and thanks for the link!
[EVO 4G Android Development] GHOST99K:
nope "gapps.zip" didnt do anything from flashing thru rom manager.really love the look on the cyanogen rom wouldnt been a keeper but couldnt get any useful apps since gapps didnt work for me.:)
[EVO 4G Android Development] HondaCop:
LOL I jump on every build that gets published. It's Cyan Crack. hahaha I used to live in Vega Baja.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
my best guess is this. it has been discussed & argued that the evo doesn't trickle charge once it reaches 100%.. this topic is a little foggy in my mind, but until it reaches 90% or less it wont start charging again. so depending how long it was fully charged after reaching 100% & it started using battery then you would notice a quick drain. keep an eye on it & let us know what happens after that threshold.

i know this is old information, does anyone else know more or updated info?
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
yup. charge the phone. i bet the battery is lower than it thinks it should be. let us know!
[EVO 4G Android Development] JOEOZUNA4U:
what if my profiles are set to "interactive" do i have to change them to "conservative" also?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jamsterzak:
150 w/ .35

I just charged mine completly till light went off ..walked to the back at work and was at 91.. usually its around 96..but I've always had that issue..works smoothly after the initial unplug

i mean were is the roaming indicator when you are roaming? i dont see nothing under mobile netoworks to turn that setting on. when i roam the signal bar loks the same
[EVO 4G Android Development] jamsterzak:
To be honest I wouldn't even use setcpu..I have never overclocked with an app..probably hurts ur phones battery life more to be honest..

FINGERED FROM HTC SUPERSONIC
[EVO 4G Android Development] Product F(RED):
Conservative will save you more power than Interactive, but they work the same way. Both set the frequency to whatever is necessary, no more, no less. It's always smooth. Republican...I mean Conservative tends to go lower than Interactive, while Interactive tends to be more liberal. I never noticed any lag using it conservative.

Also, overclocking will eat your battery depending on whether or not the phone is actually on that frequency. ie if you set it to ondemand or performance and the max was 1125, then yeah, that's going to rape your battery. If you set it to 1125 with Interactive or Conservative, it won't eat your battery unless the phone needs that much power and starts running that fast. In other words, with Conservative & Interactive, you're specifying limits. With the others, you're pretty much saying "run at this speed".
[EVO 4G Android Development] jamsterzak:
I only roam when im at a fellow devs house..I get a notification saying I'm roaming..thats about all I know ..might be an app for That not sure

[EVO 4G Android Development] Product F(RED):
I use Roam Control to force roaming in my home since I don't get great Sprint signal in here. The only way for me to tell that I'm roaming is when I see 1x instead of 3G. There is no roaming triangle like on the Sense ROMs.
[EVO 4G Android Development] elas123:
i remember a roaming triangle in the middle of the notication bar when cm first started and we had to push a file to stop it. im in and out of roaming all day long traveling and would love to know when im back in sprint area
[EVO 4G Android Development] ISSMER:
Yeah...the "eri.xml"...I bet you could pull it...modify it...and build a flashable zip with the online kitchen
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Is anyone having horrible, and I mean horrible 3G speeds? It starts getting slow, the switches to 1x and then slows to a crawl. If you guys need my info: CM 6.1 RC1 running the latest Snap kernel. Not many apps. Use the browser constantly though. I also tested many radios and they all do the same.

Sorry if this was addressed earlier but due to my utterly slow speeds I cant really look for it. :/
[EVO 4G Android Development] tehkingo:
Is there any way to check what radio/prl and such I'm on right now?

EDIT: nvm, found everything. I originally asked because my speeds seemed to be much lower than on Sense roms.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vdubtx:
Yup, same recovery.

May have been it, charged it for an hour or so and was at 75%, tried again and went back to my old Fresh just fine so I could update my profile. Back on CM again. :D Thanks.

Now, to tweak the phone and get some awesome widgets I see in some peoples screen shots. Looks awesome.
[EVO 4G Android Development] AvatarOfFrost:
What awesome widgets? I've been looking for widgets and can't find anything that doesn't look as disgusting as the stock android widgets.

I can't seem to get Google Apps installed. I've put the correct zip file in the root of my SD Card. When using Rom Manager it reports an error from the Recovery Mode Console saying 'aborted..can't find /sdcard/card/xyz.zip no such file exists'

I've tried several different times and can't figure it out. I have tried searching but google didn't work and the forum search is down. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] mlin:
So I am trying cyanogen 6.1 rc1 for the second time now after spending a great deal of time with Myns Tom and then messing around with the MIUI rom. The reason I moves away from cm was battery life. However, for some reason this time around my battery life has been much much better. I'm not sure what I did differently. Thanks to the whole cm team for the great rom! I think I'll hang out here for awhile.

So I updated my profile to hopefully help with the insanely slow downloads and it did not help. Anything else I can try? I am in a good 3G area so has never been a concern. Did a Speed Test with 3G and then with my wifi and I get the following:

Wifi = 5.10Mbps down and .61 Mbps down

3G = .30Mbps down and .44Mpbs down

Something is definitely not right.

Hey guys. I am new to flashing on the EVO. Longtime flasher on TP2 though. Anyway I just got on the Cyanogen rom and I think I have it just the way i want it except for a few things.

By default on the evo, you could listen to your voicemail ON YOUR PHONE. You did not have to call in to listen to it. I cannot figure out what feature this is to enable it or if it is an app that I have to get. Can someone please advise?

[EVO 4G Android Development] thestick00:
Thanks guys for the advise. I feel a little slow today because i still have problems. When i try to download the apk from my phone it downloads and does not install from what I can tell. I seem to have google voice on my phone as well. I signed out of google voice as I do not know how to "completely disable it" or uninstall it. Things I have done prior to initially was:

1. Change the voicemail details to have my phone number instead of "*86" or whatever it was from deafault.

2. Half setup google voice (i signed out of it as mentioned above).

I really want to get this feature back if possible, so it is appreciated if you guys have ideas as to what i might of missed.

Thanks

well actually i may not be installing right. I browse to this forum and click on the APK. It downloads and completes downloading but I cant see it install. So maybe i am going about installing it wrong.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
well once it downloads, you need to use a file browser to find the apk file & click on it to install it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
yea, you have to install it using an app installer. i use astro. there are a lot of choices on the market though.

oh and, everyone else, don't mind posguy99 too much. just look past the completely unnecessary sarcasm, which is always dripping with acid; he's sometimes got some pretty useful stuff to say.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thestick00:
Thanks alot you guys. I was trying to find it using the default file manager on cyanogen. I could not find it. Using Astro i found i had downloaded it FOUR TIMES and just needed to install one of them. Working great now. Thanks to all!
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
glad to hear you got it fingered out. in case you arent aware, on cm6 anytime you interact with voicemail you will receive a text message. its just how it works & if you cant live with it, use an app to block the #.. just wanted to let ya know so you weren't surprised.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
in case you guys were wondering the alpha build of the zendroid kernel tested like this

highest quadrant scores with overclock 1113mhz

smartass - 1509 (most tests were around 1300)

interactive - 586 (lol)

conservative - 530 (yikes)

keep in mind its ALPHA. just trying to do my part by testing & reporting results. things seemed to perform fine other than low quadrant scores. i'm interested to see how this progresses.

lol kinda just venting... but if anyone has any info I would appreciate it.

Trying to download off the market the last couple days seems to just hang.. it was eventually going through but right now it isn't. I've cleared data and no luck.

Sprint football live was working great the other day, I haven't changed anything but now whenever I open it, it just closes.. doesn't FC but just closes. I cleared data and no luck... it had to be a special version of it because if I get it from sprint it won't work on cm6.

I deleted it and I was gonna try to restore it from titanium backup.. but that goes back to my first problem -=(

**edit** OK the market FINALLY let me download, so I restored sprint football live.. and it still just closes =\ .. so annoying

@Rippley05, I just read over on the CM forums someone said sprint lost their contract with the NFL to verizon, so it sounds like the app isn't going to work for anyone. That would explain why it worked for you then stopped working even though you didn't change anything. Not sure how reliable it is but it's worth looking into.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tiffany84:


Those are two totally different apps. Verizon is strictly NFL and sprints is college but sprint still has the contract with ESPN so u can watch Monday night football on sprint. But the sprint app still works.

Just wanted to say thanks for such a great rom!

I'm pressed for time so I haven't looked for this issue, but wanted to report that when using the camera app in the RC I have noticed the flick to scroll touch to stop while scrolling menus are not stopping when you scroll them. I.e. the general settings menu scrolling down to resolution and trying to stop before it hits the bottom just doesn't work.

Battery life seems to be less consistent than with cm6 final. Is there an app that can detail battery info? I've been using the simple battery usage in the settings menu to tell me my %used.

Cm6 RC using stock kernel.

Not true, there was a version made that works for it.
