So, some questions. Other than the kernel being different, is there anything else?

Any reason to flash the newer one if this is working well? My phone has never had a problem with HAVS and seems to prefer CFS over BFS. I'm guessing that I don't have to wipe if I flash the newer 1.8 over the one I have now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] CheesyNutz:
hows that working ???
[EVO 4G Android Development] phreezex:
where is the boot animation stored with this room..

i tried system/customize ,, and all other roms i change the zip is located there.. with this one, it changes nothing..
[EVO 4G Android Development] deolarte:
thanks my phone totally crashed had to reinstall, dont know what to do I got a brand new evo from asurion, 004 and dont know which rom will work perfectly with this. Anyone have any ideas
[EVO 4G Android Development] brol1k:

[EVO 4G Android Development] thearch1tect:
awesome rom! first time coming to Caulk rom and loving it.

I tried searching but couldn't find the answer so I apologize if its already been answered but is the stock kernel w/ v.1.8 SBC based? I want to make sure my extended battery charges effectively.
[EVO 4G Android Development] phreezex:
delete me please
[EVO 4G Android Development] phreezex:
nothing there but an audio folder..

EDIT:, copied zip there, worked fine.. thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] luckylui:
Well going senseless gives u fc on the settings home wallpaper thats forsure other than that its running smooth. Deff worth it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rushco:
No SBC. There is a HTC #15 kernel with SBC out there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thearch1tect:
coolio, thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] vacquero:
Try placing your bootanimation.zip in that folder, then reboot. It worked for me in 1.7.7 and 1.8 using EStrongs.

Edit: Guess you got it going.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vacquero:
No SBC in the stock kernel. You'll have to flash one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] phreezex:
Yes, thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] dkdude36:
ok, i'm just going to copy the cpu clocker from 1.7.7 into this one so it takes those damned profiles off.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DualSportDad:
I'm using the HTC kernel #15. Should I remove undervolt? Also if I used the sbc version of that kernel would I get better battery life?
[EVO 4G Android Development] thearch1tect:
is anyone having long reboots on the 1.8 version? any way to speed it up? Took a good 2minutes at least for my phone to reboot

EDIT: Just realized that it may be because I am wiping cache & dalvik cache? I haven't had a normal reboot yet since I'm still flashing things
[EVO 4G Android Development] THunDA:
First boot after wiping caches will always be long.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DJHUSH:
yeah.. they were working on the 1.7.....
[EVO 4G Android Development] thearch1tect:
thought so .. thanks

anyone having issues with the search button not working on the phone with 1.8?

all the other keys work, home, menu, back .. but not search:confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] boliviano3:
Please read the OP
[EVO 4G Android Development] thearch1tect:
Sorry about that :( .. I thought I had read through everything but clearly missed it .. thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomPhreak53:
Has anyone got RosieSettings to work on this rom? I really don't like the stock browser and would like to be able to choose Skyfire to launch when I tap the internet button.

I just flashed V1.8 yet I want my Ziggy kernel back. I dont like the fact that I am limited to 998MHz now how can I get it back? Or what other kernel do you suggest I use thats better.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sgt. slaughter:
well you could go to ziggy471.com and download it then flash it. Or go to Net's thread here and get his latest kernels too. Which ever one you like better. I personally had to go to Net's as Ziggys caused random reboots that have yet to be figured out. Still waiting on Ziggy to build a debug kernel for me to use to catch what exactly happens to cause it.

My weather is not working on HTC sense clock.. Anyone else have this problem??
[EVO 4G Android Development] eniamg02:
Can this stock #15 kernel be underclocked?i tried changing gov to conserv and uc to 921600 after making changes I reboot and check sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0 too see if changes stick and ondemand still governor and 998400 is still scaling max freq.

Note:i would check these same files after making changes with nets kernel on 1.7.7 and changes would show/stick.

Edit: ok well the 921600 wasnt sticking.because its not an available freq with this kernel,but when set too conserv show ondemand.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nivron:
I don't think so. What problems are you experiencing? Mine works with GPS locations and updates per my intervals in Accounts & Sync.

I think I figured it out. I'm not sure what sources HTC uses for weather, but my city is no longer in the "Add City" option -- nor are other cities that I know I have been in. Orlando, FL exists, for example, but Ocala and Belleview do not. They definitely have existed in the past.

My clock now shows "Current Location" which I assume is because my city is no longer in the location database. This happened a few months ago as well and was down for a day or two at the max, if I remember correctly.

Sorry for giving you bad information before my edit.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jj22ee:
So installed 1.8 removed sense and htc lock screen installed nets 4.3.1 and now my search button on the evo wont work any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nivron:
On the first page, there is a ZIP file that re-enables the search button. This ROM disables it by the dev's preference :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] dean_fx:
Which one of ziggys kernels run the best with this rom? Battery life wise...

Anyone?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nivron:
I've had fantastic luck with Ziggy's 21 Jan 11 CFS kernel with my 3500mAh battery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dean_fx:
Beta Kernel EVO CFS HAVS 21 Jan 11 (774)

That one?

Sorry, his download links are so weird on his site.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nivron:
Precisely -- I forgot to include the HAVS part in my message.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dean_fx:
Sounds good.

Thanks for your quick response :)

Downloading it now. I like the rom I just really needed a stable kernel with nice battery life. I'll give it a shot now :) appreciate it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nivron:
Hope it works good for you! If you still need an alternate, I've also used Netarchy's 4.3.2 CFS More Aggressive HAVS kernel with good luck on this and other ROMs. I'll let you decide if you want to use SBC or not due to all of the drama involved.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gpz1100:
Nivron, did you have the issue of a hark lock after rebooting following the initial install/boot of that kernel?

Btw, cfs works well, bfs seems slightly faster for me, with similar battery consumption... (albeit, I went down to 4.3.1 because of the 4g lockup issue in 4.3.2)
[EVO 4G Android Development] dean_fx:
Yeah I'm going to stay away from SBC just from what I have read.

I am a moderate user but i keep all sync (facebook, twitter...etc) off.

Just looking for a quick and stable Kernel to run with this rom. I have heard good things about battery life, so it was good to hear it from a current user ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] misfit0313:
Just tried flashing the the extra buttons zip in post 1... phone loops at the splash screen. Any suggestions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] gpz1100:
Wipe cache/dalvik cache before flashing? But really, just open up the zip, see what file gets changed, and either make the changes through a file editor, or just put the new keyboard definition file in the proper place with root explorer. Reboot. Done deal.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jj22ee:
Thanks for the help not sure how I missed that zip file I downloaded all the other ones
[EVO 4G Android Development] nivron:
Strangely enough, the main thing I do with my phone is XDA and Facebook. I rarely ever make a phone call since everyone normally calls my work phone. I'm not a heavy user by any stretch, but I do leave my sync on. I also haven't turned off anything else like the Always On Data/Auto Brightness. I used to do that at the beginning but personally didn't see any real change in my battery life.

I have had pretty good battery life under the following conditions:

- Ziggy's or Netarchy's kernels I listed.

- 3 Google Accounts (Personal/Business/School) with Calendar/Contact/Gmail sync.

- Facebook Live Feeds / Contacts hourly... Even though I don't use Sense launcher or FriendStream. I keep meaning to stop the Live Feed sync since I don't go into Contacts to see what they're up to.

- News/Weather hourly. Should disable those too since I don't use Sense or those individual apps.

- System Monitor with monitoring (of course).

- Battery Monitor Widget with 5 minute intervals.

- Trillian connected to a bunch of IM services (using Battery Saving Mode).

- A couple of hours of XDA/Facebook/IM/SMS chatting combined.

- Probably an hour or so of Pandora streaming.

- LauncherPro with Beautiful Widgets SuperClock.

- A pretty good mix of 4G/Wifi.

- GPS always on.

Using the stock battery with either of those kernels with the criteria I set above will let me go from 6:30 AM to 5:00 PM and have probably 50-60% left.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nivron:
I haven't had any hard locking problems with a kernel install when using Sense. I did have that problem sometimes when I was on CM6, particularly when trying out non-CM released kernels.

But to directly answer your question, using either the Ziggy or Netarchy kernels, I did not have any problems with locking. I was using Ziggy with -150 undervolting and noticed some strange behavior of programs force closing, and I had one random reboot so I went to -100 and it seems much better for me.

When loading a new ROM, I always let the ROM load with the intended kernel once, just in case there is some scripting that relies on a particular kernel. Once the ROM boots up fully the first time, I reboot to recovery and flash the replacement kernel after a cache/dalvik wipe.

I have been a bit hesitant to try another BFS kernel. I think the last time was when Kingxklick was still around. My phone was pretty laggy. But thanks for the suggestion, I may have to try one out soon! Net's 4.3.2 has not given me any issues with the 4G locking up. Do you have an example on what happens?
[EVO 4G Android Development] gpz1100:
Maybe my hard locking issue is due to some other conflict... I've had evio 1.77 running for some time now. No issues other than a reboot if I use the browser too soon after rebooting. I tried all the UV scripts including one that removes undervolting altogether with same results. That's when I tried net's.

When I installing 4.3.2 cfs (after of course clearing cache and dalvik cache), everything was dandy until I rebooted again. It rebooted to the htc splash screen and hard locked. Had to pull the battery. Even then, until I wiped the dalvik cache again, it kept hard locking at the htc splash.

Unless there are significant changes in the rom, i won't upgrade until a major version or two later. The phone is very stable now, configured the way I want to, and I rather leave well enough alone for a short while.
[EVO 4G Android Development] saenz4931:
size partitions

can some pls help me and tell me what are the best or most convenient size partitions for swap and ext? will appreciate it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vacquero:
Have you tried adjusting your minimun sleep state frequency? That is the first thing I had to do with new releases to avoid random reboots. It may help with your reboots when opening your browser after waking. Your sig says you're using a nets kernel; since it doesn't support vdd, the script is setting hour min at 128k or 245k. If your phone is like mine, it'll do much better at 348k. Calk's script sets this automatically for Ziggy's vdd kernels.

Once I raised to 348k. I haven't had any problems. I'm using the 1st version of 1.8 with net's kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SweepinJR:
Just want to say, I've just started using this rom yesterday and soo far I really like it. Calk really has put together a great rom, very fast and stable, battery life has been much better than stock so far.

can't flash this v1.8

well, this is my first botched flash ever... Using amon_ra 2.2.1, upgraded all radios except PRI and NV, still 1.77 (not 1.9). anyway, when I try to flash, after "copying system files", it stops at "setting permissions and symlinks" then reads "install from sd complete" however the progress bar is half completed and recovery freezes with the choose items at the top. no buttons work and I have to yank the battery. I do all the wipes from recovery and flash the Format_all.zip . I can also then flash any other rom to get back to the phone, delete the v1.8 from the sd card, download a new one, and it still gets stuck at the same spot.

Is this a PRI and NV issue, or is my phone kind of jacked? It has been acting a bit fishy for the last week since I used MIUI for about three days. Any ideas Friday night crew?
[EVO 4G Android Development] INebilim:
Ive had this happened to me as well, so i reflashed 1.7.7 and now i am roaming 100% with no 3G at all. i cant turn it because it already trying to turn itself on but it never does. I dont know what to do, i tried doing the MSL reset but no dice. I had v1.8 (185MB version) before but it messed up my text and data, i never got anything unless i was on a call. please, it would be greatly appreciated if someone can explain or comply on how to solve this problem
[EVO 4G Android Development] gpz1100:
I have not, because my issue does not manifest when coming out of sleep. I don't think the cpu speed during the booting process is anything but full speed. The issue occurred if after booting, I attempted to open the browser. The browser would open, then attempt to load the home page (google.com), after which the device would reboot. This is the only time I encountered any reboots. This was reproducible after each and every reboot. If I let the phone idle for a 30-60 seconds after rebooting, finish its boot cycle (or other background tasks that go on after booting), then opened the browser, all was good.

Since switching kernels, I can open the browser as soon as the GUI is available without any reboots.
[EVO 4G Android Development] saenz4931:
i had something similar when using RA 2.2.1 and find out that was because my fone was still plug to the ac or pc, try to flash the rom with ur cell umplug and see if that help you.
[EVO 4G Android Development] saenz4931:
had that issue before and after a whole day off calling sprint and searching i try ##786# and end up having no data .. some how i open the sprint zone app and it was asking me for update my data .. as soon i click on update .. it update it and now is working fine,
[EVO 4G Android Development] saenz4931:
did u have ur phone plug in when U flash the rom? if u do try to have it unplug.. i had some problems similar when flashing some roms using RA2.2.1
[EVO 4G Android Development] INebilim:
thats exactly the issue i am having, 100% roam!

is sprint zone included in this rom? i didnt see it
[EVO 4G Android Development] ttkyles:
TT

just some thoughts.... been running v1.8 for 5 days now ..flashed ziggy471 2.6.32.28 ck2 CFS kernal with travel to canada roaming.telanav and GPS worked fine but google nav. seemed to take slightly longer loading. .coming from a very short stint with cyenogen Mod, boy but they got to work the kinks out.Very much like the Sense to ADW EX interface change...kinda gives you the best of both worlds....

Overall a very smooth crisp and clean ROM.. Calk is the man keep up the good work

Notes : The gingerbread keyboard FC'c all the time !Do I need a different version.

The Original kernal must have had battery saving scaling Ziggy's gives a wider range and allows overclocking.
[EVO 4G Android Development] saenz4931:
that app is on the remove_app file or open the zip file rom and check under sd file should have the remove app file in it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] INebilim:
yea i installed it but mobile data is not on. i see that there is an update but it cant do anything because there is no connection. i tried setting it to 1x and hydrid, then NAM selection force closes. it's a no go i have no idea how to solve it
[EVO 4G Android Development] saenz4931:
do u have ur msl NO.?
[EVO 4G Android Development] INebilim:
yes i did all of that. i do know my MSL. when it tries to refresh my profile it just doesnt find any connection so it's just says it cannot be refreshed. the mobile data just hangs there when trying to connect. thats my issue right now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] saenz4931:
on ur Phone dialer .. dial *2 when u see the sprint screen click where it say calll sprint... that will check ur voice setting and ur data services and it will update it if it need it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sgt. slaughter:
anyone flash this and notice the main HTC clock widget missing? any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] INebilim:
it does check. voice is ok but data fails because it cannot "connect properly" this was the message on sprint zone. i set NAM to 2 and hydrid but i am sure it will revert to EvDO.

EDIT:i just fired it up again. it passes the test but when i try to open browser, the connectivity is lost
[EVO 4G Android Development] saenz4931:
That happends to me when i mess up with those settings, when i call sprint they told me to do ##786# hit manue, reset, but it hang there for probably 30 min, after they consider my cell was broken i desided to reset the cell from the settings, sd & phone storage settings .. after reboot the fone i try *2 as was trying to contact sprint and thats how i saw the voice and data checking .. i hit call sprint and the fone start updating data it self..( i had flash myn rls5) after my fone was mess up from kals, 1.8.. now i flash it back (1.8), but i left those settings alone... as many plp are having problems after playing with it
[EVO 4G Android Development] INebilim:
i did the update manually from system settings instead of sprint zone but when i fire up zone it keeps telling me the update is still available..? can you please tell me exactly what you did, i would like my texts calls and data back to normal :)

thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] saenz4931:

[EVO 4G Android Development] INebilim:
I usually run miui so i will make sure things are ok...which wont break my data..then nandroid back
[EVO 4G Android Development] saenz4931:
after playing with the mobile settings on Calk, 1.8 my texts, data, and location were mess up.

i restore my nandroid back up (Myn;s rls5) and everything was the same (text, data, location bad),,

when calling sprint.. they ask me to do a reset ##786# when the screen came up i hit menue, reset, enter password, (msl NO.) the phone when in to reset mode for about 15 min and just hang on the resetting pop up.. i pull off battery and still the same.. so sprint customer care rep, said that the cell was bad or broken..

after i hang up the fone..

i decided to try it again..

1- diel ##786# hit manue.. hit reset... enter password (MSL NO.)

(reset pop up came up.. but i notice that on mobile No.. was not my No. anymore insted was a 000 000 0633, same as MSID NO.

2- pull off battery and put it back on.. turn fone on and after reboot a pop up came up with updating services or data services (cant remember)... after few mins it never finishes so i cance..

open dialer, and i dial *2..

sprint zone app pop up and thats when i saw voice services updating, and data services.. then after it finish i hit call sprint and tada.. working fine

now i reflash Calks 1.8 but this time didnt touch the settings.

[EVO 4G Android Development] dkdude36:
I have finally nandroided back to 1.7.7. And i'll tell you why. I love your roms caulkin, but this update is not well enough tested, and not really even what people mostly want updated.

First, the settings tweak is an absolute glitch storm. Please, please remove that now.

Second, the profiles aren't really neccesary or even wanted. People get good enough battery on your rom anyways. It isn't neccesary to make their phone weaker as the day goes on.

Third, focus on what people want. That's Rosie settings support, more prominent theme, and to keep the awesome kernel and battery life on 1.7.7.

So please, update soon. Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gpz1100:
When I was having this issue (created by my own doing, lesson: don't mess with settings you don't know anything about), i figured wifi would give the device a means by which to get the profile update.
[EVO 4G Android Development] INebilim:
thats not the problem. i did know what the settings did. just that the settings themselves were glitched. i am gonna nandroid back to 1.7.7 now and run sprint zone
[EVO 4G Android Development] saenz4931:
I am glad work out for u... i was going nuts when i went through the same issue, it was actually scary... update if u got everything working fine for u.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sgt. slaughter:
Ehh not so sure ppl really want a more prominent theme bud. Thats the main reason I use Calk's rom b/c its themed just enough to not be over board like the other roms. You can always go and flash themes over anyway.

btw has anyone gotten the Render FX Widget to work at all? I get a force close the first time I use it every time then after that it apppears useless. Honestly dont even know what its supposed to do to begin with.
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
It is unplugged and I went through the whole routine again this morning. I just don't get it, can flash any other rom with no issue, and wanted to try this
[EVO 4G Android Development] VisedMonk:
Never got it to work either -- FC every time.

I assume it's like the Render FX Widget from CyanogenMod, which can be used to change how the screen colors are rendered. For example, you can use it to change the colors to night mode, red text on black, or a terminal, green text on black, or sepia, to name a few.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sgt. slaughter:
Yeah I wanna say the force close app is something along the lines of Cyn.... so that was my first assumption.

Just didn't expect Calk to include it in here if it didn't work.

Man deff has a lot on his plate with the Baby and all, so any update is just icing on the cake anyway even if a few things are off.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vacquero:
+1 on the theme and the FX Widget.
[EVO 4G Android Development] phatmanxxl:
For some reason the ROM has been lagging since the last update, and the screen somewhat unresponsive. Not sure what causing it. Ill be back after the next update.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vacquero:
The force close process is CyanogenMod. I'm guessing this widget comes along with the Power Control Settings app. Maybe it can't be stripped out without breaking the app, so Calk just leaves it in. I'd like to see what it does, but I can live without it.
