Easiest way to do it is to flash Amon RA recovery via ROM Manager. Just open it and scroll to the bottom and click "Flash Alternate Recovery".

Why does my camera not work in this Rom only using netarchy kernel built for dc? Anyone else?

Sent from my HTC Evo 4G with Sprint
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
Search and the answer will be yours. The short answer is that netarchy kernels are based on .29 source and some things have issues running under that kernel on froyo.

The Wifi Tether Saga

I just want to say Thank you to the Damage Crew. I'm new to Root (semi new i guess). I've only used Damage Roms.

In any event in regards to this New Rom (Thanks Again). I did have a problem however. Perhaps it can be chalked up to my being a relative amateur to the brains on this site. When i installed the final 3.5 i had a few issues. The biggest was the loss of wifi tether. Now before anyone gets on my case, I did read through about halfway through the threads i've tried Pre2 - Pre7.

The problem is as simple as it not working. when i first installed 3.5 the wifi tether worked for 24 hours. (i'm traveling on a train, so i was really using it). It then just stopped. as i tried to fix it. it got worse. I eventually went back to Damage 3.2.2.1 and it was working again. I have now gone back to 3.5 and i have wifi tether (pre7) working fine. I am guessing it will eventually fail again but i thought it would be helpful to outline the exact process i've gone through to help figure out what the problem is.

He's probably messing with you. He considers it a "dumb question/dumb statement."

The wimax tool FC'ing is a known problem and will be fixed in the next update.

Whether it was him or someone else, the quote is meant to be used to make fun of noobs for asking "stupid questions" or for not "searching on their own" - because, you're supposed to be a computer science major who developed web pages when you were 6 to be cool around here.

[EVO 4G Android Development] beatblaster:
Without a log of some kind that shows what exactly the Android system doesn't like about your card the only thing I can think is that maybe there's an error on the card itself and the phone won't bother trying to write to it because something is wrong. Have you tried a different card to see if the issue persists?

[EVO 4G Android Development] kaiser_va:
Flashed the stock DC 3.5 kernel and Vignette doesn't have the issue. The issue appears to be tied to the netarchy 3.7.8 & 3.7.8b kernels.
[EVO 4G Android Development] effluent:
I've been to Laredo once! Don't think I'll go back!

I just formatted the card, sick of it and thought I'd start over. Copied all files to my laptop and backed up all apps. But now I'm boot looping and there's nothing on the card to restore a backup or flash a ROM or anything..lmao. So am I F'd?
[EVO 4G Android Development] novanosis85:
Get a new card. Aren't the hboot saved on the phones memory? Meaning you still have root?

Are you still able to get into recovery?
[EVO 4G Android Development] effluent:
I have root, can go to recovery. But there are no roms/zips to flash or nandroid backups on the sd card. So if I reboot, it boot loops. So I can take the battery out and go back to recovery..but can't really do anything there. I have it all saved on my computer but I don't know how to get it from the computer to the card since I can't boot up the phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] beatblaster:
You'll need an SD card adapter to get the data from your PC to the card again if you can't get the phone to boot. Try a different card.

And, yeah, I was a kid last time I went to Laredo so I'm not sure if it's gone to hell or not!

USB issues.

Essentially what is wrong since I put DC 3.5 on my EVO4G is that when I go to plug into my computer, it wont mount as a disk drive. The menu pops up for a short time, I click disk drive but ..it doesn't work.

Any help? I was running 3.2.3 and this never happened or anything like this. Thinking of flashing back to old nand backup because I miss aloysis too.

On another note, my evo seems to be playing mp4 now when it wouldnt before..

[EVO 4G Android Development] jdawg0024:
No adapter needed... depending on your recovery image... I use RA and while in recovery mode I can toggle the USB function so I can copy files from the PC to the SD card while in Recovery Mode. Dont know to much about clock work as I have never used it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] beatblaster:
Aaah YES! How could I forget?? Very good point. Regardless, I still think he should try a different card in his phone to see if that helps with the other SD-card related issues he's having.
[EVO 4G Android Development] effluent:
Ha..well I already got the reader, copying the files now to the old card. I will return that and if it's still acting screwy I'll order a new card online which I'm sure I can find a lot cheaper than Best Buy!

Slowed CPU

Good Morning (or Afternoon to Evening Depending on location),

The Question: Does DC 3.5 slow the CPU of the Evo?

The Reason: I recently did a complete wipe of everything: user data, cache, and davlik. With a completely new install i was playing one of my favorite games Robo Defense. I notice quite easily that with a moderate amount of activity on the screen I get huge screen and menu slow downs. I have played this game 10s of times (possibly hundreds) and never noticed this on the Evo. I don't even recall noticing it during my brief time with Tmobile's "MYTouch" which was hugely underpowered. I also noticed a few times that my music would skip periodically as if again the cpu was spiking. I tried turning everything off and no solution though the music issue is sporadic

Any Thoughts

I recommend getting Titanium Backup donate edition, it can back up all your settings and apps and lets you restore them without any prompts. The free version does the same but acts as if you're installing each app one by one and prompts for you to agree at install like if you were to do it from the market.

DC 3.2.3 VS 3.5

Does anyone have a definate comparison which rom is better 3.2.3 is running so stable on my phone im just wondering if it can even get any better lol To upgrsde or not is the question I figure 3.5 has been out long enough some of you should have good idea by now Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] FunnyorDead:
I'm on 3.5 now, from 3.2.3...if I could go back to 3.2.3 without a lot of effort, I probably would, for 2 reasons:

1) 3.5 def. drains the battery faster than 3.2.3. The difference is modest with the stock kernel, but if you install netarchy, or any of the custom framework enhancements (like the circular battery gauge), it'll be full charge to power off in 5 hours, with minor use.

2) Themes don't work. period.

1.) Not true for everyone.... Mine has been off the charger since 7am (that's 17 hours+) and I've used the phone for 15+ calls plus web and email. I still have 31% batt. I guess it depends on setup and what you have running on it.

2.) I don't know about this one. I have mine setup with LauncherPro with a custom dock and custom icons. I see no need for any themes.

I don't know how I got themes working either. Here's a little tidbit to snack on: I did a full wipe yesterday, double dalvik/factory/cache.

[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
Total wipe and reflash. My theory is that flashing one of the first riptide themes, and then flashing each update over the previous update without a wipe did the trick. I'll test it when I get home from work later.

Question for anyone having sdcard issues. (and maybe even usb pc problems)

Is your sdcard partitioned with anything besides the fat32 partition? I remember reading somewhere that with froyo's native apps to sd, there was problems recognizing sdcards with multiple partitions. This could be the reason some ppl are getting read-only and possibly even why connecting via usb is failing.

Can anyone confirm if it does or does not work with a partitioned sdcard? I have not switched to froyo yet so I can't test it myself.

Just flashed from 3.2.3 with netarchy-toastmod kernal, wiped both cache and dalvik cache.

First boot came up into android but gave me an error I wished I had wrote down, thought it was just something with an app, after that it just sat at the background screen with no icons and none of the bottom buttons being responsive (although they did give vibration. Weather app had booted and I could get into that from the notification bar but could not do anything else.

Rebooted phone (via holding down the power button for a sec and selecting power down on the menu, then just powered up like normal) and now stuck at 4G white screen indefinitely with the screen turning off after 20sec like normal and the power button turning the screen back on, also the buttom 4 buttons do vibrate when pressed but nothing happens (not a boot-loop).

Cant get into recovery it seems either, but im not very experienced with adb, using "adb-windows reboot recovery" as the command on the adb app from when I first rooted, and it just keeps saying device not found.

Starting to think I might be in serious trouble... Any help would be awesome as I really need this phone. I did a nand backup before I updated, just need help getting to recovery to restore it.

EDIT: found a 3 second window where windows saw the phone that let me into recovery. Thank God. But I still cannot get past the 4G screen that turns off with the 4 buttons vibrating even after wiping cache and dalvik cache and re-flashing, any ideas on whats wrong or how to fix it?

Also as an aside, the 2.0.5pre7 version added wifi tethering for stock kernel but if I recollect correctly it broke support for custom kernels. Trying the latest 2.0.5pre8 using netarchy's 4.0.3 I am able to connect another device to my Evo using wifi tether. May also be due to the fact that the previous kernels were using the old .29 kernel while the new one is based on .32 source. Either way I recommend using the latest version.
