i keep getting that no matter how i try to install. i do wipes. i've tried to install from clockwork AND Amon. i've downloaded 3.5 about 4 times so far, once directly onto my phone. i don't understand what i may be doing wrong.

any suggestions?

thanks,

Kings kernel works greattt on this rom.

yeah im having the same problem its getting really annoying. i have to wait up to 5minutes sometimes just to send a text
[EVO 4G Android Development] tatnai:

agree with dc config needing to be updated. framework borked? I think people get bootloops because a) they don't get a good wipe with clockwork, b) they don't wipe and have issues with the custom scrips and their installed stuff, c) they restore stuff using titanium that should not be restored.

battery life is awesome for me. using netarchy's 4.0.3 which I think actually makes a difference as compared to 4.0.2, though with the more conservative scaling I do note just a slight lag with the first action I do after waking the phone, as it scales up the cpu. but honestly, i'm getting the same battery life I got on 3.2.3, which is all around awesome.

yeah, I would love an update for updates sake, but even dc config, it is just old stuff that needs to be removed, there isn't anything that it actually NEEDS.

dying to flash something though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fastrat350:
Havent said any thanks, but just thought I would pop in, well since running this rom from the release and coming from latest DC 2.1 rom, im pleased so far with this rom. I just did the latest netarchy kernel and it works great, i never really messed with wifi tether, but I remember at first it not with with regular htc kernel but just tried it and works great!! thanks alot and hope to see new updates

I haven't heard anything about gtalk making it unstable. Mine is running fine besides it always syncing.... :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] verngator:
Running DC 3.5, card not partitioned at the moment. After I installed DC I did initially move my apps to the card via DC Config. Everything seemed fine at first. I was able to charge phone with OEM and with spare non-OEM wall charger.

Then I went out of town/on vacation and took only a non-oem wall charger with me...and noticed that my phone wasn't charging unless it was off.

I have my netbook here and have successfully run adb via USB in the past, so I picked up a spare SD card (with adapter for reader) and data cable. Using the card reader I was able to save all my media as I could not connect to the phone via USB. Then I moved apps to internal memory, formatted the card...still had problems.

So then I formatted and installed the new card, totally wiped the caches and phone, etc. Nothing helped.

At the moment the card is not partitioned.

Finally found threads addressing the issue; downloaded Terminal Emulator to run the fix for the SD card - now my phone will at least charge via car charger and wall charger while on about half the time! - but still cannot get my PC to recognize the Evo via usb. I've tried to run fastboot oem enableqxdm 0 in adb shell, but my "device is not recognized".

My last hope is that the OEM cable at home will work - others have reported problems with non OEM cables/success with OEM cable.
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
Actually it's not just new people having the issues. I've been having problems as well and trust me when I tell you I know what I'm doing.

I don't use clockwork at all, unless I need it to flash an unsigned zip, and then I go back to RA immediately.

If you install from a clean wipe (double wipe factory/cache/dalvik) then install DC, then (without restoring backups at all, which is how I tried it last time) try and install a theme you get bootloops. Hell I took it all the way back to Toast's Part 2 and reflashed the engineering hboot/rom and started completely over to be SURE nothing was left on the phone.

If you install riptide v1, it works. Then install other themes, they work. I figure it's because v1 made a tiny framework change that 'fixed' it. However eventually things start getting weird and you have to wipe and reflash anyhow.

We dont want updates for the sake of updates, however its hard to believe that the first version of Damage's Froyo is bugless and has had nothing worked on it since release.

We know there has been things changed and updated and we would like to see a release that has some of this.

[EVO 4G Android Development] jkinnison90:
Just an update on what's going on would be nice. But there are some bugs that could use a fixing. Im still using this RoM though as it's rather good I think.
[EVO 4G Android Development] markyochoa:
Hey guys.. Thanks for the new Froyo update. Been waiting for it for a while and I'm glad it's here.

Everything went smooth except for one thing.. My Dialer is gone. Someone had suggested that something went bad with the signing.

Here is the EVOLUTION of my phone... (get it? ^.^ )

I rooted it via toast's method (yes, one and 2) then installed damage control 3.2.3. Then I installed Aloysius color theme on top of it. Then Installed DC 3.5 via the DC Updater. That's when the phone app went bad.

So now I have a phone with no stock dialer. sad kittens.

EDIT

I figured it out. I installed DC 3.5 alone and then it worked fine. Then I installed Aloysius 2.2 and that's when my dialer went rogue. Either it alone or the combination of dc and Aloysius is ****ed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] abstraction21:
I've been a fan of your ROMS since the Hero. Too bad I can't root my EVO yet because I bought it with the 2.2 update. Can't wait until someone can figure out a way to root it.

Keep up the good work!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rocklee99:
So i guess everything work properly in her, i just have three questions before i decide to download:

1. does this destroy battery life? i have the stock rom and i get atleast 60 hours of standy/ light use

2. does this remove any app? i like all my apps and want to keep them, even sprint ones

3. and what does this mean: **JIT / WirelessN settings in dconfig do nothing. We have a new copy of dconfig just wasnt ready for this release

Boot image/sound in Damage Control

Let me start by saying that I am a diehard fan of the Damage Control ROM. This is simply the best custom rom available for the Evo. The couple of days I spent between DC 3.2.3 and DC 3.5 were spent on Fresh 3.0.0.4, and I was very aware of the lack of options available to me in DC's config menu. I LOVE DC 3.5, and just can't wait to see what Damageless and TrevE come up with next.

At this point, I am running DC 3.5 with netarchy 4.0.2. My question is, I think, pretty simple: does anyone know of a foolproof way to alter the boot animation, or more importantly, the boot sound on this rom? Ideally I would like to configure it to my own fully custom animation or image, but I would also settle for adding a small sound clip to go along with the stock animation. (I was thinking the windows 95 start sound for the lulz.) I have read as much as I could find on the subject, but I don't feel comfortable doing anything as most of it applies to a stock rom. If anyone knows how to do this, or has a link to the appropriate thread (if I somehow missed it), I would really appreciate your help!

Has anyone successfully updated to PRI 1.40 with this ROM?

Cant flash it.. ive been trying for hours.. did full wipe.. and nothing .. Im glad i made a backup if not id be stuck. Ill stick to 3.2.3 for now untill i cant get the zip to open .. tried dc updated and flashing from recovery and both ways it gives me unable to open the zip file (bad). any one have any idea why this is happening?
[EVO 4G Android Development] wings9130:
I had a quick question. I'm running damaged 3.5 with a custom kernel. The phone is working great. I wanted more memory so I just bought a 16 gb card. Is it ok for me to copy everything from my 8gb straight to the 16 and just pop it in? I assume yes but just wanted to make sure. They are the same brand cards san disk. Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
Unless you're using apps2sd, yes.
[EVO 4G Android Development] focusedlife:
Thanks. This was my problem
[EVO 4G Android Development] dukins:
Probably dumb question. But how do I know if I have it and using it. I have noticed that most of my apps are on my sdcard, but I have no idea how it got there. How do I turn apps2sd off, I would just rather use titanium for apps only.:confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] Estimated Prophet:
Sounds like the zip might've been corrupted. Try redownloading it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
At a guess it's turned on in dconfig. Check there, turn it off (which should move your apps back to internal storage, then reboot. You should be good after that. Most roms will truth on apps2sd if you have the card partitioned, automatically.

anyone having prob with wifi? I loaded 3.5 and the new netarchy keneral and everything else is working that I know of. Good fps and everything just get an error when trying wifi.
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
Even *I* have finally given up and gone to EViO 1.1. When they get back and get a new release going, I'll switch backs, but I ran into too many problems (not the least of which is the theming issue) to continue using DC. I really miss dconfig but I can live without it for now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kawasaki00:
I had the same problem, all of netarchys kernels fail at line 8 for me. 4 different roms and I get the error on wifi on all of them. I love his work but on my phone none of his .32 kernels will load, I am forced to the baked kernel, try one of those on 3.5 and see what happens.

Wondering if I need to update the PRL and 4G radio in this build. I have been looking around for hours at the different threads and it seems updating the PRL is not a big deal but I would like the latest update. I am having an issue with the 4G and wondering what I can do to try to fix it. When I turn it on (yes I am in a 4G coverage area) it does not seem to connect. When I reboot the phone it connects for about 10 seconds when it first starts up and then I lose the signal and it goes back to 3g and will not reconnect. Saw a thread about having a bad MAC address but can't find the thread again to see if my phone has that mac address. Any thoughts or suggestions with links would be great. Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] forcelite:
Its official.

Damagerom is the only mainstream rom that hasn't had an update since its original 2.2 froyo release.

Fresh was the only other one but it had an update last night.

Please release an update!

Is this a netarchy kernel? Does it fix the fps issue and allow to underclock with setcpu? Also what is all included in sense? I banned sense and the only thing that seems different is the home screens.

name calling? really?

Expectations become the price when you make *anything* that is solid. By saying "man, I really wish you guys would release an update" - you think that's someone being ungrateful?

It's like saying "Wow, I thought Kick Ass was an awesome movie! Other movies have already released a sequel. Please release a sequel!" And then someone (keep in mind, not even the people involved in the movie) says "WTF is wrong with you people. They'll release it when they release it. Go make your own movies.....people are ungrateful bastards"

It's not the end of the world....
[EVO 4G Android Development] driguez:
Well I gotta say I'm surprised, they were usually on top of it, optimizing it and making run better. I'm still running it for now but to be honest, I'm using kings kernel and from my understanding dconfig it's pretty much useless, nevermind the themeing issue among other bugs. Not an attack to Treve and damage, just an observation. BTW We got spoiled!

Will clearing the cache via recovery uninstall anything else or set anything else back to factory? Also, do others agree with this idea. Facebook just syncs forever with my phone and never seems to end. I'd like it to work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fenixjn:
Exactly.

This!! Before, DC was updated more than other ROMs... in fact CM was the only one that got updated as frequently as DC. It has been a while since the last update not to mention that none of the devs have reappeared on this thread for some time now.

It just feels weird going from a ROM where updates happened at least once a week to nothing in about a month.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Renegadez:

[EVO 4G Android Development] PAPutzback:
There is a theming issue? I am new to Android and I tried the Manup theme and it hosed my phone. I had to do a Nandroid restore.

Would you\the people in this thread say this is probably still the most popular ROM to use. I really wish there was an app that kep a constant tally of what software was on how many phones.

I just flashed Netarchy's 4.1.7 kernel. Fingers Crossed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Fruitsnacks:
I have been running DC 3.5 since it released, and I flashed up from netarchy 4.0.2 to 4.1.7 yesterday. All is well so far.

Hey- anyone here know how to flash custom boot sounds on this rom? I have a rough idea of how to do it on a rooted stock rom, but I think the pointers to the sound file were removed from the desc.txt... (Location: System/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip) so I'm not entirely sure how to safely restore those to the text file. Additionally, I am not quite positive about where the .mp3 should go, or if it needs to have a specific name (eg. bootsound.mp3). If anyone knows anything, I would really appreciate some hints/information.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wings9130:
I am running DC 3.5. My facebook sync seems to sync forever. Would clearing my phones cache through recovery help and will it damage anything on my phone? Help would be really appreciated.

I've noticed this as well. The contact sync is fine, but the live feed gets stuck. Luckily, I don't care about the live feed sync and just turned it off.
[EVO 4G Android Development] webs05:
Live feed snyc in FB failed for me when I disabled Sense in Dconfig but that happened in 3.2.3. Once I wiped completely, installed 3.5, and restored apps with TB I was fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wings9130:
how do you turn off live sync?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Estimated Prophet:
Settings > Accounts & Sync > Facebook for HTC Sense > Sync live feed
[EVO 4G Android Development] wings9130:
Strange i don't have the last option of sync live feed. I just have sync contacts...?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Estimated Prophet:
Did you wipe data before flashing the ROM? I've seen some weird software problems show up from people either not wiping or wiping after the ROM flash instead of before.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wings9130:
I did wipe data and cache before installing dc 3.5. Should I try wiping cache and installing again?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dglowe343:
You just place it in the resource folder. The name should be spcanimation I think. Not sure what the extension needs to be though. If you have a stock Rom or one with the sound file in it, go into the Rom file in your computer or via a file manager if its on your sdcard and see what it its. I've found that sometimes the files are in system/media

[EVO 4G Android Development] wings9130:
I have been trying to sync my phone with facebook for HTC sense. It just seems to be syncing forever. I don't have the option to sync live feeds in it (and thus turn it off), only sync contacts. I wiped cache and wiped data before installing DC 3.5. Does anyone know what the problem might be and how to fix it? I would really appreciate the help. I don't know what to do.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SouL Shadow:
What version of the facebook app do you have? I know there is/was a sync problem with one or more of the recent versions, don't know if it was ever fixed.

Also, do you have anything banned in dconfig?

Did you restore anything using titanium backup?

Is this happening on a newly flashed 3.5 Rom or have you flashed any themes or different kernels or any other mods?

Have you tried wiping and flashing 3.5 again?

Any or all of these could be a factor and the addition of this info will most likely help others in helping you (and in turn will help the next person with the same probkem)

also, it wouldn't hurt to check alogcat and see what's going on behind the scenes

[EVO 4G Android Development] wings9130:
I had an older version of facebook app. I updated to 1.3.2 and it has the same problem. I have the nascar app and friendstream and twitter banned in dconfig. I'm not sure if that is a reason. I did restore my apps with TB after I flashed DC 3.5 and i flashed DC after a full wipe. I would hate to have to wipe again. I have no themes but I do have a kernel on the phone. I don't know about alogcat I will install it but dont know what to look for. If this helps please let me know.

thanks for the quick replies. On my phone I don't have the option of a "live feed" just sync contacts. I can uncheck this but i like the fact that my phone syncs contacts and updates pictures etc...I don't get why I dont have the live feed option. It seems like that would fix the problem.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Fruitsnacks:
Thanks for the response! After spending some time working on it, I found the easiest way to get my custom bootsound was to disable the bootanimation on the /resource folder, thereby causing the system to default to the /media folder. Then I just named my audio clip android_audio.mp3, and put the bootanimation.zip in the folder. I did have to take apart a few ROMs to figure it out... but it works just like I wanted it to. :]
[EVO 4G Android Development] Testrunner:

[EVO 4G Android Development] revlis240:
Right, I noticed that from my Hero days, that the developers seem to be dropping the ball on updates. Im not complaining since its free, just stating my observations.

Im thinking about switching to Fresh Evo, as it SEEMS to get updated more often it has the 1.4 PRI and latest baseband. What does that even mean for me? What does having the latest PRI do/
