I think the mirroring is intentional (at least halfway intentional). If it wasn't mirrored, it would be more confusing to control and get yourself in the display. People are used to looking in a mirror at themselves. What needs to be fixed is that it doesn't save mirrored. If you have ever used one of those cameras with a fold out rotatable lcd screen, it switches to mirror when you fold it out so you can see yourself while taking a picture. However, it saves the picture correctly without the mirror.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
You keep getting that error because you already have that version installed. Also, HTC doesn't make Flash, Adobe does.

Look at your version, it's 10.1.72.7. Now look at the 10.1 BETA 3 version in the market, it is 10.1.72.7 as well.

Problem solved.
[EVO 4G Android Development] m3Jorge:
Kewl non-issue then (though is strange that is comes up in the market vs other ROMs where I doesn't, not a bug report just an observation)... when I said HTC's version I meant the one the packaged in their ROM... thinking perhaps there was an OEM version vs Market version... anyhow thanks for pointing out the are exactly the same...

On another note let me give you props for having the MOST functional 2.2 deodexed ROM I have tried... seems 2.2 deodexed has had more "corks" that the 2.1 versions but you have done awesome updating and addressing issues!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Heresfitz:
Where can I find AmonRa recovery? I don't see it in the market place?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
My signature.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dukins:
Get Rom manager from the market then flash alternate recovery, which is ra recovery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Heresfitz:
Thanks for the help!
[EVO 4G Android Development] 1wingangel:
i cant seem to install flash player beta 3 with this rom, i tried uninstalling then installing, but no go. anyone else?
[EVO 4G Android Development] m3Jorge:
Having an issue with the Sprint Football app now... when I start it it looks an update and finds one that wants to download, If I download it it fails to install and if I cancel it exits the app... So I'm not sure if this is a sprint updater issue or a NFL update install issue... :?
[EVO 4G Android Development] m3Jorge:
The Flash that comes with this ROM is already the latest verison that is why the market one won't install... I know it's tempting seeing in it the app store and all... but just stick with the built in one for now... :P
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
Follow the thread and you will find your answer.

Went and bought a mini hdmi cable earlier . Confirming HDMI out is working with your latest Rom SteelH
[EVO 4G Android Development] rollrsk8ter:
I just got done making a backup, was going to flash scratch again because I have the same issue. Tried on my wife's evo that has the leaked .3 rooted rom and it works fine on that device. Can any others confirm this is a bug that SteelH needs to squash.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
Bug squashed.

Here is the update: sfl-prod-release.apk

To update the Sprint NFL app:

1. Open Titanium backup, find SprintNFL, click 'wipe data'

2. While still in TI backup, uninstall Sprint NFL

3. Reboot your phone

4. Install the above linked apk file using your favorite file explorer after downloading it to your sdcard (i.e. ASTRO, RootExplorer, etc)
[EVO 4G Android Development] junkyardwillie:
When I ran the G-sensor Calibration under Display in settings the screens orientation was no longer able to go into portrait. If for instance I went into Gmail, I could switch between the two landscape angles but not portrait mode. This was the same in all programs that allow landscape. Once I factory wiped and reflashed the rom worked fine.

Sorry if this is an already known bug but I didn't see it when I did a quick search so I just wanted to let you know. Great rom, I'm glad I could finally upgrade safely to Froyo. Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
Just tested this on RevE and RevE.1, didn't happen on either one.

Has anyone else besides junkyardwillie had this problem?
[EVO 4G Android Development] forrie1:
After flashing this ROM, anything related to my google account is force closing:

contacts, gtalk, gmail, market, etc. hmmm. what did I do wrong? it will not let me sign in to my account in 'setup'
[EVO 4G Android Development] churchwin88:
Is a reboot required after you uninstall? I uninstalled and tried to install and it said something like app not installed so I rebooted and voila it works now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
Can't hurt, I'll add it to directions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrkrabs:
I did the wipe data..uninstall.then reinstall with the apk above..therm rebooted...sprint nfl opens...then downloads some update but says it can't install...
[EVO 4G Android Development] churchwin88:
Are you on 3G/4G? Not wifi?

I've read that being on wifi won't let it update since it is through sprints network only or something like that.

EDIT: Might not be your problem but thought I'd throw that out there...

I tried it earlier today for the first time and it was giving problems about not wanting to update too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] m3Jorge:
You sir are THE MAN... soon as I get paid I'll send a donation your way!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] dukins:
I believe thus just completed the rom for me kind sir. Appreciate the work. Looks like so far this is the only rom that has a working sprint nfl app. Now to find my battery leak. It may be I just flashed the rom today and been putting my phone through the ringer making sure everything is functioning like it should. Again thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] oodlexaps:
What is the benefit of forcing the wipe?

Rev E was my 1st rom ever and on a freshly rooted phone, so sorry for the newbie question. I suspect the answer would be obvious if i had gone through a flash using rom manager.
[EVO 4G Android Development] heizzy:
Hi guys, does anyone know if you can update the radio and wimax with this rom. If you can which radio and wimax do i flash too? I've tried the latest ones but my phone keeps bricking every time I flash the radio 2.15.00.07.28 and I have to unbrick to get everything working again. Please help Thanx
[EVO 4G Android Development] Antagonistt:
The radio and wimax are seperate from the ROM and remain throughout ROM switches (they are uneffected). So yes, you can update to the latest radio and wimax with this ROM or any ROM. I'm not so sure what you mean by "bricking and unbricking" though. Bricking means you've just turned your phone into a paperweight, so if you are able to do this at will and fix it, lots of people would like to know how. Maybe there is a terminology mixup?

Hope that helps:o
[EVO 4G Android Development] gregkeys:
OK figured out my 4G issue phew scared for a second there. As a first time rooter I followed this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=701004

the idiot proof guide to rooting, however I only followed it up until unlocking the nand. it was in the unlocking of the nand and then flashing the radio, wimax and this rom which enabled my 4g.

YAY happy again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] emeraldayotte:
I'm having issues regarding google maps and navigation. Each time I have to reboot my phone, the apps disappear forcing me to reinstall from the market everytime.

When I originally installed the ROM, I didn't have to (or at least I should say I didn't) perform a data wipe. Could this be my problem?

I'm attempting a backup and wipe as we speak to see if that resolves the issue.

EDIT: After performing the factory reset, I'm back to normal. Guess it would've helped if I would've followed the instructions completely!
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrkrabs:
Ok I'm running revE...ttying to use titanium backup...but it won't let me backup anything in batch mode...it worked just last night because I have it scheduled..i even downloaded a new app for a change

...still nothing

Ok just uninstalled then reinstalled...working fine now!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ewells38:
Haven't used/tried revE, But can confirm It certainly works on revE1, I'm running revE1 with Titainum Backup. No problem running scheduled or batch mode backups :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuddaBelly:
I'm having a strange problem with everytime I disconnect from charging my phone it still shows I'm connected to the charger? Just wondering if others are having the same issue. I am on E1 and did a full wipe before installing. If I reboot the problem is gone till I plug it in again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ewells38:
Nope, running revE1, when I unplug phone the icon returns from charging to

battery mode :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] heizzy:
Hey thanks, I know that the radio and wimax are different. What I meant to say was that when i flash to the latest radio my evo's usb stops working and the sd card as well. Every time I have to fix the usb and sd card because its almost like a brick phone. Thats why I was asking if there is a specific radio and wimax update i have to flash to so i dont get this issue. Thanks again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
I had that problem occasionally, but not so far on this rom (rev E.1). It happened to me on the rooted stock 2.1 deodexed. Maybe it happened on revA of this rom too? All I can tell you is that it's not unique to this rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BuddaBelly:
Thanks for the reply. It's hit or miss. Doesn't do it all the time so for now I can live with it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] orbitalrage:
Thank you, SteelH!

I have been reading about updating to Froyo with root access and I didn't want to lose any functionality.

I was able to update WITH ClockWork (once I updated ClockWork/ROM Manager).

Everything works great and as long as someone actually takes the time to read all the posts (and comprehends them) all questions are answered, sometimes multiple times, and with a smile.

Good work! I am VERY happy. :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] emeraldayotte:
I've noticed one other problem....I'm unable to installed the newest Facebook 1.3.1 version.

I tried reading through all 32 pages to see if someone else has asked this already but didn't get through it all. Any suggestions?

The error message that I receive is that the installation failed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sxayarath:
Is there a working link???
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
Remove it with Titanium Backup. Same goes for anything else you can't figure out how to remove, TI Backup will do it for you.

Are you serious?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sxayarath:
All three links weren't working earlier, but looks like that is resolved. In all seriousness though...thanks for the work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
I guess massmirror.com took a ****
[EVO 4G Android Development] tpeazy:
Ok. Steel. I have some constructive criticism for ya. First...IMHO you need to get a memorable name for this ROM. It is one of the best ROMs out there and yet I have a hard time telling folks the name of it. Since you are Steal, how-about StealROM or ROM-O-Steal or something. This ROM is too good to float off into mediocrity. Secondly, do you need help in coming up with a bootscreen for this ROM..maybe with a logo?

I am serious. This ROM is stable and it really rocks. I have upgraded to Netarchy 4.0.3 and EVERYTHING WORKS. Besides that, I have some of the highest quadrant scores I have ever seen. I am running one of Riptides themes...I mean I am really having no problems.

So my hat is off to ya. Very nice ROM bro. Seriously. I'll look to see if you have a Paypal account and buy you a soda (in case you are under 21).

Tp
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
Thanks for all the kind words. As I had stated in the OP, I wanted to keep this ROM as stock as possible while maintaining functionality of all the components. Originally I had changed the boot animation, but then reverted back to the stock Sprint 4G one. There are tons of customized boot animations in the apps & themes thread, so anyone can easily change theirs if they'd like. Thanks for the offer though! You are already helping me out by running my ROM and putting it to the test.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tpeazy:
If anyone has problems installing the (way kool) new Google Search app, then use TI to unistall your and then adb to remove. ADB Instructions:

Remove using ADB:

adb remount

adb shell rm /system/app/GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk

adb uninstall com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox

adb shell rm /system/app/VoiceSearch.apk

adb uninstall com.google.android.voicesearch

Then REBOOT

Credit for the ADB to "pugsby"

Tp
[EVO 4G Android Development] emeraldayotte:
I'll give that a shot. Thanks for the help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] crzycrkr:
This is probably a stupid question, but can I remove some of the useless HTC apps in your ROM. I've been using it for a while, but would really like to get rid of things like footprints, friend stream, news, stock, twitter, sprint zone, and qik. If so, how do I go about doing it? Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] sanjsrik:
And I felt utterly stupid when I realized this as I tilted the device.

Thanks for being patient however.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sanjsrik:
I've seen a very convoluted process to go about doing this, I just didn't have the energy. I'm not afraid of Linux, run enough boxes of it already, just didn't want to have to do it for each and every one of those same stupid useless applications you mention in your post. If someone could figure out a way to just uninstall them it would be great. Completely useless bloat installed as applications.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
Use TI Backup.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrkrabs:
Keeps saying access denied when I put in adb remount?
[EVO 4G Android Development] crzycrkr:
I have read in the past that the HTC apps are weaves into sense and removing them causes problems. Is that not the case here? Just click uninstall in TI and no problems?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
That depends on the app.
[EVO 4G Android Development] yutlin:
SteelH,

Any chance you could build in the 2.2 streaming audio bug fix?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
Not sure how or what that fixes. I did not include the Pandora streaming audio fix (stagefright) because it causes other problems.
[EVO 4G Android Development] yutlin:
Is that the fix that disables Stagefright or the code Google released (that I linked) that actually fixes Stagefright?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] crzycrkr:
That brings me back to my original question. Can we safely remove the pre installed HTC software?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
I was referring to changing the default setting in build.prop to FALSE for stagefright; which is known to cause other problems.

If Google released some code to actually resolve the problem that would be nice, but right now I don't know how to integrate it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
Some yes, some no. Do a nandroid and find out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] crzycrkr:
Okay, thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjmontan:
cant seem to get anything to show up when I go to download the stock rom with mass mirror.com does anyone have this on another download site..thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] yutlin:
I believe the code here is a commit to the Froyo source code that actually fixes the problem with Stagefright. Guess I'm not 100% sure how to use it either... figured it would be used to make a patch that could be applied to the the Evo 2.2 kernel source maybe.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
That fix is older than the OTA EVO Froyo ROM, it's last change was 7/20. Not sure how applicable that fix even is. Also, if there was a good fix aside from the current enable/disable stagefright, I would bet money netarchy or someone else would have already compiled a new kernel incorporating said fix.
[EVO 4G Android Development] yutlin:
It looks like the commit date was 7/29. From what I have read the change has already been pulled into the CM6 nightlies but I haven't heard anything about an update to the stock Froyo ROM/Kernel yet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
Good info. I'm not a kernel guy, I'll leave that up to those who are and just wait for someone to release a patched kernel. It is nice to see Google fixed the problem though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lwcreviston:
I'm using Netarchy-toastmod 4.0.3a-signed kernal 2.6.32.15 with no issues and you can set the cpu from 128 to 1152 mhz and the camera is still 8 mp. Battery life around 8 to 14 hours with moderate use.
[EVO 4G Android Development] occamsrzr:
I am also using netarchy 4.0.3.a with this ROM, works great. I am getting a full days use on my phone now. Thanks for all your hard work SteelH!! I like being able to start with a stock ROM and then change things they way I want them. With all the custom ROMs out there, you have to like there theme and all the mods that come in the package, or spend time undoing the things you don't like.
[EVO 4G Android Development] emeraldayotte:
Hey Steel

I'm still having issues with installing the latest version of Facebook. I attempted to remove it (and HTC lockscreen so I can have the stock lockscreen) using Titanium Backup. Un-install is successful but when I reboot, both reappear.

Any suggestions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] occamsrzr:
I ran into the same problem. Did you delete the original APK file with root explorer? I did that after uninstalling with titanium backup, rebooted, then went to the market and the new one installed just fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] crzycrkr:
Okay, I uninstalled google search and voice search and installed the new versions. They are both working fine, and a long press on the magnifying glass button brings up voice search. Unfortunately, a regular press does not bring up google search. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
No idea. Nothing was changed in the ROM to affect the search button. Short tap on the search button brings it up in the version I'm using now, v1.0. This leads me to believe that is caused by the updated version.

My Google voice is v1.6.0, and the version i see on the market is 2.0.1

I'll give it a go on my phone as well. What are your version number for Google voice and Google search?

UPDATE: I updated and a short press doesn't bring up the search for me either.
[EVO 4G Android Development] crzycrkr:
google search version 1.1.048668

voice search version 2.0.1

I should clarify. Tapping in any program brings up the search box. It's just on the home screens that it doesn't. Both versions are the newest versions in the market.
[EVO 4G Android Development] crzycrkr:
Could you test to see if the new voice search works with the old google search? If it does could you possibly post the apk since I was dumb enough to not back up my old one? Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] crzycrkr:
Looking at the google search reviews on the market, it seems others are having the same problem with the search button on other phones.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
Yes it does, that is what I am using now. Here is the original apk.

I'm not surprised, as I was examining the process as I was trying to hit the search button, and I saw this:

WARN/KeyCharacterMap(104): Error loading keycharmap file '/system/usr/keychars/supersonic-keypad.kcm.bin'. hw.keyboards.0.devname='supersonic-keypad'

Funny thing is, that file is there. Something is jacked up in Google's new search.

UPDATE: Working on a fix, stay tuned.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
Check OP under patches, google search and voice search patch is awaiting you with baited breath!

And yes, the short and long tap works properly on the home screen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] emeraldayotte:
I have not tried removing it with root explorer. I'll give that a shot.

Thanks for the help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] crzycrkr:
Works like a charm. Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] tpeazy:
Question for you SteelH. Is there anything of substance that we need to update to the 8/14 version. I don't really see what the changes are and I don't want to loose all my settings if I don't really need to. Let me know.

Tp
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
There is no '8/14' version, RevE.1 is the latest version. The OP was updated 8/14 with a new patch.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrkrabs:
Great!..google search and voice working great!
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
Your welcome, enjoy!
[EVO 4G Android Development] oodlexaps:
Thanks for that note! Great for people like me that are trying to catch up. Very happy with Rev E, too, btw.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrkrabs:
Well..everything works with google/voice search except I get FC after I say send text to me message...i goto click send but it FC everytime...anyone else have this issue?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
To update Google Search & Voice Search:

delete /system/app/GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk

delete /system/app/VoiceSearch.apk

delete /data/data/com.google.android.voicesearch

REBOOT YOUR PHONE!!

Go to the market and download 'Google Search' & 'Voice Search'

You are now updated

This fixes the FC problem you are having, also short tap = google search and long tap=voice search.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrkrabs:
Do I do this from a terminal app?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
Root explorer or any other file manager app that can read NAND. Just delete those 3 files, reboot, and install from market.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrkrabs:
Ok using root explorer I deleted...reboot...try to install from market...says not signed...its like when I reboot the files I deleted come back..
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
What says not signed? I never saw a market app say that. Also, deleted files can't come back. Something isn't right.

Delete the 3 files (in root explorer you have to enable R/W for NAND directories). Reboot. Open root explorer and check the 2 directories for those files, if you did it right they won't be there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drbadass:
EDIT: It appears this was an issue related to titanium backup. fixed.

So I'm still having some issues with facebook for android syncing.. stupid htc facebook works fine, but clicking on it in the apps & sync menu just does nothing. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling via titanium, but it said it couldnt find the apk. kinda at a loss here.
[EVO 4G Android Development] v_lestat:
i have seen plenty of market app's say that and frankly i see no reason why other than it is seeing a rooted/nonstock rom/kernel....

facebook update, voice search, google maps, and a few others. i have never found a cure

it says not signed correctly after its downloaded and tried to install.

now though maps and search just say it cant install. or rather an error occured, manual installation is required, but it still doesnt work.

which is what we are all seing now because we are not running stock unrooted phones.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tpeazy:
Ahh...that can't be right. Not possible. Many many many of us are running rooted ROMs, including this one and I have never seen that error. We can put our heads together and try to figure it out.

Tp
[EVO 4G Android Development] jdr6382:
Qik?

I've been running this for quite some time and every thing has been perfect!

great work here.

I haven't tried and I don't remember seeing anything about issues with qik

I'm running this rom E1 without a flashed kernal.

when I tried to initiate qik, it just kept saying connecting, until it timed out and showed the contacts list again.

anyone experience similar issues?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrkrabs:
Heres the error I get
[EVO 4G Android Development] dukins:
By far the most stable rom so far with fresh being a very close second. I have been able to add all aps including the new voice search and themes to this rom with no problem. I used root explorer to delete the orginal voice search options and then we re-added from the market and everything is working fine. Thanks again for the awesome rom. It will be my daily drive for a pretty good while. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] m3Jorge:
I followed this instructions and the only issue I still have is short tap of the search button from the home screen doesn't work... :(

Am I missing something?
