So this is great and all that 4g is coming to CM. I used CM exclusively on my hero, but being in a 4g area I held off on switching over on the evo. Running Myn's which is great but I'm still dying to switch to CM. But... I have 003 hardware with the new camera chip, (I hear this is quite rare :( ) and everything but Myn's with the stock kernal breaks my camera, including CM. This is just as much or more of a deal breaker than 4g. Any word on what can be done, or when it will work in CM?
[EVO 4G Android Development] VOODOOTRIP:
Absolutely nothing wrong. If you go into cm settings you can pull up the DB settings and see. The difference between cm and sense is that it shows you your "real " signal strength.

sent using a dark cm6 bugless myn.. you get it.

Hey guys. I need help with the ADW dock on tbe bottom. i wanted to delete an app and dragged it to the bottom instead. Now its stuck in the slot that used to pull up the whole app list. For the life of me i cant figure out how to change it. i tried reseting ADW but that didnt work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
I did the same thing..lol... you have to clear data in applications to restore it:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] sultan.of.swing:
Lol I did that too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thedudejdog:
long press the home screen and you can add a shortcut to open app drawer. then drag that to the middle slot.

or just use swipe up to open app drawer. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] paranoid android85:
I did that but I still get a fc. It's weird, but after I did, my wallpaper changed to nice looking beach wallpaper. Not sure where it came from cause I don't see it in any of the wallpaper options
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
thats terrible advice FYI.

might be better just to unroot & return to sprint store :D

this was good advice. thanks for helping!
[EVO 4G Android Development] mmegalodon:
hah hilarious, yes - just create the custom shortcut, activity, launcher actions and open / close app drawer and replace. no need to do any of that business ;)

Had a question though, has anyone has issues with an app (s) disappearing? I have estrongs file explorer installed, shortcut on the homescreen and everything but it wasn't showing up under my downloads list. After searching it said it wasn't installed and I proceed to install it again. It was working even though it wasn't showing, which is a little strange and it even let me redownload.

I only ask, because I had noticed someone mention that re-downloading the youtube app (for updated version) even though it was already installed but not showing as such, but it still worked. Is this nothing to worry about? I guess looking around I noticed that the news and weather bit that comes with CM6 was missing too, guess I don't notice anything else ... maybe a freak occurrence?
[EVO 4G Android Development] wase4711:
THAT's the answer that should be given to about 50% of the questions in this thread! :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
roflmao

yea i often wonder how people managed to find their way to XDA, ROOT their device but can't think for themselves. oh well i dont mind answering the same questions over & over again :D

not speakin of anyone specific here, just kinda venting. but its all good i love my XDA peepz =]
[EVO 4G Android Development] wase4711:
I think alot of people just freak out when some thing goes "wrong" with their phone, and start to panic...then, they start to frantically post on web boards, hoping someone will answer their question.

The point for me is that why would you just blindly trust something a total stranger posts on a web board as gospel? I mean, at least try to figure it out yourself, and, at the very least, do a google search for the answer, since about 99.99999% of all the questions here that just keep getting posted over and over and over again have been answered and can be found on Google. If you see the same answer given to your problem on google a few times or more, its probably the correct answer.

Plus, once you start figuring out and solving problems on your own, your on your way to mastering this phone!

Triple D,

We need to start a top 10 response thread...funny stuff...
[EVO 4G Android Development] mmegalodon:
Yeah but I can understand why someone might be "nervous" if something went wrong. Some folks are just getting into Android, they get ahead of themselves and when things go wrong they weren't expecting it. Even though one should. Of course.

When ADW Launcher was updated, and the ability to replace the App Drawer Launcher happened, people flooded the comment section about replacing it and how it was some crazy glitch and they couldn't do anything. Even though someone two comments down had put the "suggestion" in that they replace the aforementioned icon with a new shortcut and still posted. I remember when I first got my Evo ... I deleted the homescreen sense clock and didn't know what to do .... for like 30 minutes I was just going through menus looking for something to get it back. It was pretty wild. Simple solution but at first, and being my first Android phone, I was stupified. But the solution was stupid simple and that is usually the case. Can't blame folks for thinking they did something completely irreversible though ... and as we know, most of it is. Maybe not all, but still - we're all human. Sometimes we panic.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
now now.. don't lie. we know you don't love *everyone* on xda...
[EVO 4G Android Development] wase4711:
thats true, but a simple google search of "how do I replace my adw app drawer icon" gives you at least 10 answers to the question right on the first page...yet, people have asked that question here dozens of times, many in a state of panic, when a simple search would have given them the proper answer..

And as "triple D" said before, its amazing how some people can root their phones, flash a theme, but freak out when they lose an icon on their screen!
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
too bad more folks don't think like you on XDA since we could all use a little help and get over ourselves as we all made similar mistakes early on too, but just my two cents
[EVO 4G Android Development] mmegalodon:
hah yes, that is true
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
:mad: I usually only reply on here to help noobis out but lately it seems as if when I try to help the noobis out I am attacked. So let me just say the information I gave was indeed correct as I just tried implimenting it the way with the short cut with no success. I can post a video of it if you like and the only way mines was restored was by clearing the data in applications....

Its amazing how disrespectful most of you are, obviously sitting on the computer hitting f5 all day. I dont really care if I am banned from this site for ranting on you idiots. Sick and tired of ppl bashing the new comers everytime they ask a simple damn question or post in the wrong section. Get a life and grow up better yet stop playing with your phone for a few sec and go enjoy the world. If you dont like a answer anyone gives, then give your own answer, and you dont like a question why even entertain it? You ppl really should take your shoes off and kick bricks!!:mad:

BAK TO REALITY I GO........
[EVO 4G Android Development] jxr94:

Lol my only question is how the launcher shortcut for adw launcher works for everyone else but him.
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
My point exactly.... just amazing...:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] halorin:
Thanks, but I moreso meant in Browser or Dolphin Browser HD. I already set my adw to something similar. Sorry I wasn't more clear.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chagio:
you're absolutely right....poop...just like your battery life.
[EVO 4G Android Development] hbeach:
I had repeated FCs until I followed Cyan's suggestion to change settings>CyanogenMod settings>Performance settings>VM heap size from 32 to 24. Then reboot.

I haven't had an FC since.

[EVO 4G Android Development] MagnusRagnarok:
i wonder what our setup difference is? ive used adw from the beginning flashing powerup over it everytime, and used 24 until cyanogen implemented the default 32 heap, and ive never had an adw fc yet. there is a difference that we are overlooking that you and many others are/have been suffering from.

Cant restore titanium backup apps!

I came from fresh, wiped, installed CM and gaps and titanium backup and when i go to restore my apps the phone looks like its going to restore but then reboots before anything happens. Ive tried wiping and the dalivik cache and then re flashing and same thing happened, I checked unknown sources and fix user permissions in rom manager. Someone please help me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] hbeach:
I'm using the latest nightly. As an experiment, I just switched back to 32. So far, no FCs at all doing the exact same things that created constant FCs before.

[EVO 4G Android Development] HondaCop:
Make sure you restore ONLY apps and data, NOT settings.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rajah sulayman:
Thanks. I actually caught ballr4lyf's link to the settings post and that squared it away. Though it's odd that I only started seeing this issue a few hours ago.

In any case, it's all set now, so I'm happy.
[EVO 4G Android Development] skittlesV1:
Thats what ive been trying, did it again just for the hell of it and still no luck
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
dude, that's beastly... you're definitely overclocking. what speed??
[EVO 4G Android Development] HondaCop:
Trust me, I went through the same thing as you and it worked for the most part, but I eventually ended up just starting from scratch and reinstalling EVERYTHING one by one. Once you set everything up, then everytime you wipe data, Froyo will download and install all your apps.

I did this and no longer use Titanium Backup.
[EVO 4G Android Development] skittlesV1:
and actually this time i did it it never booted up, just stayed at the blue x booting scren untill i pulled the battery and rebooted
[EVO 4G Android Development] skittlesV1:
I tried that though and it didnt work, your talking about the first blue batch option right? the one that says restore missing apps and data? or something like that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Those Quadrant scores are very impressive!
[EVO 4G Android Development] HondaCop:
When I say start from scratch, I am referring to installing CM6 CLEAN from a complete data/cache/dalvik wipe and downloading each app from the market. NOT using Titanium Backup at all. Time consuming but better chance of avoiding problems related to settings and data from apps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sab3r One:
Who knows. He gave ****ty advice and got mad when he got called out on it. Boo hoo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
If you like I can post a video for you.. I have no need to lie to you or anyone else on here. I do not have that option....:D

I only have the option for shortcut,widget, folder and wall paper.... under short cut it only gives the option to place an app, bookmark contact and so on.. I can not change anything else... Maybe I am mistaken but there is nothing else when i press the screen...

[EVO 4G Android Development] Product F(RED):
If you lose the launcher shortcut for ADW.Launcher, to get it back you install LauncherPro.

jk jk.

No but really, just make a shortcut on the desktop to open the app drawer and then drag it to the middle button on the launcher.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
whoa... dude, relax.

i'm sorry you got attacked. i believe the advice you suggested to wipe data for adw may be a possible solution, but it's a bit of a drastic one. there are other, simpler solutions.

in any case, that's not the point here. i agree with you that some of the senior members here need to be nicer to the newcomers. however, as is the inherent nature of a forum, reading is fundamental. most new members don't read. it's rather painfully blatant most of the time.

i don't want to have the whole noob vs experienced argument again, but, if you feel some of the guys here are too tough, why don't you get more involved and offer assistance from your end? change by example perhaps? i will, on my end, try to rectify the harsh treatment on new members through many means (maybe a faq of some sort). but, please, let's try not to issue blanket statements. some of the guys helping out have been doing it for weeks and those few who've been here since the 1st nightlies, months. cut them some slack for having the patience to answer the same questions over and over again when a few minutes of reading would've resolved most issues.

we all do this for fun, let's not forget that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cowboyboats:
If you would have simply searched the forum you would have found that the custom shortcut method does work and mentioned several times. Instead you suggested that they delete data without explaining the consequences. If there aren't replies to bad advice then it doesn't fix y the problem but only makes it worse. If you can't handle criticism than perhaps don't post in an open forum.

[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
I dont have that option at all....
[EVO 4G Android Development] Product F(RED):
Well, it's there because I've done it on a fresh install.
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
Maybe the problem is you cant comprehend. I offered advice to someone when i was in the same situation maybe with different variables. I dont have the option of using custom shortcut not on my phone at all. I read thru the forum before I ask any questions and thus the answers did not apply to my situation.

Further more my rant was not about being criticized but about how new ppl are treated on here, sorry if that part went over your head but next time, read, comprehend then respond.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ISSMER:
Do you have any launcher action shortcuts?
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
I may have to do a fresh install but that option is not on my phone. May be due to the theme I am using or I am completely blind and missing it. But I have tried all the steps listed and I do not have custom short cut on my phone... I am just gonna reflash everything...

thanks.

[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
are you long pressing on the dock?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ISSMER:
Strange...that option is part of the base ROM. Nandroid your current setup, flash a CM stable and see if it is there. I suspect a mod you made post ROM install did it
[EVO 4G Android Development] Examiner19:
If the custom shortcut isn't there, go to Settings>ADW> Reset ADW Settings. That should get your app drawer back.
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
No I flashed cm6.1.1 last night and added a theme but that was it. The theme was for cm6.1.1 but I can not find for the life of me custom short cut. I was also missing the market when I first flashed. And It didnt even show up after flashing gapps. Only showed up in my manage application and I cleared data and then I had a market icon.... maybe I have a bad dl or something...
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
That didnt work for me either and I even rebooted after that thinking it wouldnt take effect until after the phone was shut down. But like I said I am gonna reflash everything...
[EVO 4G Android Development] ISSMER:
Do a format all and see if you get the same behavior.
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
no long pressing the screen.. should i be long pressing the dock?
[EVO 4G Android Development] cowboyboats:
No didn't go over my head 1 person mentioned about people unrooting their phones. 4 or 5 mentioned your bad advice. Clearly you would be able to use a custom shortcut if you were running the latest cm stable, try updating or asking your question on the themes forum

[EVO 4G Android Development] ISSMER:
No...long pressing your homescreen is correct
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
if we're talking about a launcher, then yes. that's where the custom shortcut menu option should be.
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
Thats what I believe also... I am gonna use caulks format all and then try a fresh install... If that doesnt work then I may just be a misguided soul...

thanks

I am talking about adw and pressing the dock does nothing....
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
long-pressing it? hmm... give me a few, i'm doing some tests, but i'll try to replicate on my end.
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
I just wanted to say thanks to all who were helping. I reflashed the rom and added gapps. I now have the option for custom shortcut and thus I understand what everyone was talking about.

My assumption is I made a mistake when adding a theme and changing my icons. Somewhere along the line I must have disrupted something to where I was missing things.

Question:

I didnt try this with a sense rom hence me asking now.

I just did a speed test with speedtest.net app and my results are

dl:607 kbps

ul: 549 kbps

are these good results? I ask because my signal strenght is jumping between -78 to -90.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tbgreen89:
Im only getting about 600kbps download speed where I used to get about 1300kbps. Their has to be something wrong??
[EVO 4G Android Development] cmart4:
did u get 1300 on a sense rom?? just asking..
[EVO 4G Android Development] craigbailey1986:
I am getting the same but didnt check with sense so I cant compare about to nanadroid and report what i find...\

EDIT: Ok so I installed myn's rom and I did a speed test with that rom.

My dl: avg around 300 and ul: avg around 200

I can only speak for me and my phone but I am getting better dl speed with cm6.1.1 than sense.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sab3r One:
People have definitely reported slower 3g speeds when using CM6. It hasn't happened to me, but it has definitely been asked about. Maybe shift or drew can help you out, because I've only seen the questions asked, not answered.

Using cm 611, and LG launcher, is their a calendar widget I can use to sync my Facebook?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sarahlegs:
Coincidence or causation? Only controlled experimentation can tell. You know, because there are no other variables in cell data transmission speeds than what ROM is on your device.

"People have reported" sounds definitive to me...sigh.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tbgreen89:
I can use myns, fresh, mikfroyo roms etc and have super fast 3g speeds. I always test with the speed test.net app and its always been around 1300kbps. Sense rom or not it just doesn't make sense to me.

Damn, I've never used the Speed Test app before and figured I'd give it a try. I got 55k down and 125k up. Ouch.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stroths:
I've gotten up to 1400 down/997 upon cm 6.1
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
speed tests from any device require a little bit of know how. routing makes a huge difference on good/bad speeds.

my personal experience with the speed test app = pure crap.

i use a speed test hosted on a local(in my town) connection that i know is reliable. however a site in your town doesnt necessarily guarantee a good connection, its all about the routing.

on 3G i get about +/- 1300kbps download speeds.

depending on the "server" used in the speed test app, it can & will vary great amounts. it uses what i believe are some crappy ISP's & depending how bogged down they are, it can & will affect speeds based on peak times etc..
[EVO 4G Android Development] socalnathan:
doesn't work
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sab3r One:
I completely agree with you. By saying "people have reported" I meant to say that thas all it has been. People have said that they flash CM6, and their 3g speeds got slower. I hasnt happened to me, nor have I seen anything to definitvely say whether its a real problem or not. The only thing we have is people saying its happening to them.

How exactly do I activate Google voice? Thanks again
[EVO 4G Android Development] drdrewdown:
i think he just wants to make sure u have actually have a google voice account. basically asking if you've signed up & created/configured your gvoice account as its not turned on just by having a google account or logging into a google account from your android device. it needs to be "activated" & "configured"

hth
[EVO 4G Android Development] ISSMER:
Sarah...I just tested my speeds on a few different sense based ROMs from the same physical location, using the same version of the speed test app and reference server. My results...CM 6.1.1 got the same or slightly better speeds.

I think people need consider all of the variables that go into your speed performance. The ROM is not one of them in my opinion
