Font Changer

I can't tell which font that is exactly, but I can do one better, and this will be included going forward so thanks for the suggestion :)

Flash the zip, install the apk, run Font Changer and you can choose what you like. As an added bonus, you should be able to take any .ttf file (ie windows fonts) and drop them into /data/local/fonts and they should work.

In short, they use different methods of CPU task scheduling.

CFG = Completely Fair Scheduler

BFS = Brain F*ck Scheduler

sorry if this has been asked but does the hires you put out for the 2.0 beta work with the official? thanks

Market Issues

Everyone that is having Market issues (I'm baffled why it's working fine for me :confused:)

EDIT: See post 2 for updated download link

Open Settings > Applications > Manage Apps > ALL > Market

Clear Market Data/Cache

Reboot to recovery

Wipe Cache

Wipe Dalvik Cache

Flash the zip

Does that fix it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] JerzyIroc:
Quick question.. Someone told me on another forum that before you install a ROM you should flash radio, wimax, and pri.. Is this true? If so how do I know if I'm up to date with those three?
[EVO 4G Android Development] steelersmb:
How do you replace the browser with the standard one on the SD Card? When I try to uninstall the one with the ROM, it says unsuccessful.

Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
You only have to flash radio & wimax once, then you're set. It is recommended to have the latest version though. Go to Settings > About > Software. Baseband is the radio and should be 2.15.00.07.28.

To check wimax:

adb shell getprop persist.wimax.fw.version

version should be 4.6.2.2v26023_

I have never done PRI when flashing a rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ctyke:

Damn, both are out of date.. Where do I get them? Once I get them just put in the sd root, go to recovery, flash both of them and that's it? I don't have to wipe or anything crazy like that right?

Just flash them, no wipe or anything crazy like that...
[EVO 4G Android Development] xylation:
I guess I'm not running the newest one. Can someone link me to the newest clockwork?

I'll try the ROM Manager as well, thanks vael
[EVO 4G Android Development] dwntwnall4u:
Just flashed v2.0 but setcpu keeps forceclosing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
That is so odd. I checked and it is in both versions of the rom zip. I did notice though an inconsistency between versions of having pre7 vs pre8. 8 was there, but somehow 7 got back into 2.0 :mad: This could cause a problem for anyone who had pre8 with a partitioned sd and didn't wipe sdext. Are you able to install either of the attached?

Also if this is reproducible for you, a logcat from the first boot after flashing would help to figure it out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
It looks like I got versions crossed. The HTC browser is supposed to be able to be installed as a replacement from extras/replaced, but it looks like somehow AOSP one got in there instead.. Once I confirm I have a working one I'll post the apk here and you should be able to install it over the aosp browser.

You can install clockwork right from within rom manager

did you install setcpu or restore from backup? and in either case, did you restore data for it? Is it crashing at random, whenever you open it, etc?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kewlkade:
Coming from CM6 this has been the best Rom for me...I was using 1.3--->1.4(yesterday) an dnow I'm going to try 2.0 though I'm not sure what are the major changes between 2.0 and below.

I can tell this rom continues to get better...but I've been playing around and trying to tweak things to my liking.

I went to 1.4 yesterday and decided to run Quadrant/Linpack and my numbers took a nose dive and took like 3secs to compute Linpack(usually 2.5secs). I know about the new Linpack slowing things down computing more data.

I tend ot look at screenshots of roms and wonder why I do not get the same numbers sometime.Anyhow I'm gonna try Rom 2.0. Coming from Rom 1.4 should I expect any major changes? I also use Slingbox for Streaming...will there be issues with 2.0 or any kernals?
[EVO 4G Android Development] xylation:
Thanks so much Vael, I'll def donate next payday
[EVO 4G Android Development] dwntwnall4u:
Ok,fixed the setcpu forceclosing by restoring app only from titanium backup. Initially it was loaded from Google sync.

The issue was I could not adjust any settings.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ebuechler3:
CAn i have a link to 2.0 with oc kernel? rapid share is waaaaaay too slow! thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] steelersmb:
Thank you. I will be making a donation tomorrow.
[EVO 4G Android Development] joshwest:
So i installed your v1.4 last night and i love it.. its the first custom rom i have used/ installed. She scored a 1565 quadrant score, 53fps, 970 benchmark pie, and consistent 39 mflops. I have found that with the overclocking widget the 1.19 setting seems to run faster than the max setting even tho i havent had a problem running 1.26, the benchmarks have been lower(Low 1400's quad score w/1.26). I hear that it varies phone to phone so your evo might be different.

anyways i have only had one problem thus far. i cant watch youtube??? i have read over the pages to see if anyone else has had this problem and i couldnt find it anywhere. just wanted to see if you had some ideas...
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Quadrant scores vary widely depending on what's going on in the background.

To get the highest possible score

Turn off background syncing in Settings > Accounts & Sync,

Disable profiles in setcpu, set the main profile to max and performance mode (BFS version only)

Turn on airplane mode, but make sure wifi is on if you have quadrant free version

For Quadrant, run it multiple times. The file access is usually where it suffers the most and I think once it can cache some things (simulating normal use) the score goes up.

I never really respond to these because I don't know what to say... thanks both of you and everyone who has/will donate any amount. It is appreciated and while definitely not required or even asked for, does help motivate the hell out of me ;)

I ran into something like this once or twice. The issue was Super User did not prompt so setcpu could not get root. I had to kill setcpu, launch it again, then i was prompted and it worked fine.

Everyone that has had problems downloading always mentions rapidshare. Do none of the others work any better? There are 7 mirrors at that link?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Sorry I missed that part of your comment. All streaming should work fine on 2.0

As far as changes.

Moved base to new 3.28.651.1 OTA

Moved kernel to 2.6.32.15-g3a8614e htc-kernel@and18-2 #7 (Seems to scale cpu freq w/o setcpu) - no OC, no FPS Unlock - Get BFS version for that.

Stagefright fully fixed (Streaming audio)

added setcpu.txt to max at 1152

Updated DarkTremor apps2sd to 2.7.5 RC3 release C

Fixed/Updated Google Search

Added ADW Launcher

Added DSP Manager

Added hires patch/undo to extras/patches

Removed all htc widgets from extras - confirmed un-needed and wont work anyhow

Updated adbWireless to 1.2.1
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Whatever the reason, YouTube is not working on the new OTA. Not sure yet if it's HTC, YouTube, or an act of nature that broke it. It seems to have been done on purpose based on the message.. At least I assume you're getting 'blah blah not supported on this platform'?

EDIT: Correction, I was thinking of Hulu, not YouTube, which should be working on 2.0 but may not on previous versions due to stagefright hack.
[EVO 4G Android Development] joshwest:
i dont have the new OTA im running V1.4. and im not getting an error message it just closes out... funny thing is i can watch south park studio's but not youtube...
[EVO 4G Android Development] atypical1:
Thanks a million for putting this together. I came from fresh and like this ROM just as much. I use launcher pro plus so having sense on my phone was pointless which was the reason for my switch.

Looking forward to the browser

apk as I preferred the old one but the rest is perfect.

I can't seem to get swype to load for some reason though. Anyone else having trouble with that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Those failures are ok. It is part of the first boot script that attempts to remove previous versions that may be left on the apps2sd partition. If they don't exist it shows an error.

What I'm looking for will be in the section where all of the apk's are being installed. I don't really have a sample to show, but it shouldn't be too hard to spot that section it's rather large.

You'd be looking for a lot of */PackageManager lines

I'm on the 2.0 beta now, about to flash over it with the new 2.0. Very impressive work, out of the box I love it so far.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
I'll see what I can do to make it work again. I've never used hulu on it actually until I tested it on 2.0.

You may need to turn stagefright back on. Edit /system/build.prop, find the stagefright lines and set the http one to true, reboot, try hulu. If it works, then stagefright is the culprit, but doing that will reverse the hack that makes last.fm, pandora, slacker, etc work.

After installing Swype you have to go to Settings > Language & Keyboard, and enable it. Next long press on a text box and select input method, then select swype.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kewlkade:
Thanks for the quick response...Installing 2.0 with Bf kernel currently. I noticed I could not download anything on the market with 1.4 but I'm moving on with full wipe and such. I'll post any differences on here. I willhave gone fron 1.3---1.4---2.0 in 3 days.

[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Hulu & YouTube

I've posted a few responses that I was mixed up on.. The references I made to YouTube were really Hulu. YouTube should have no problems on 2.0, but might on previous versions. It is Hulu that is not working.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Using the HTC Browser & Wireless Tethering

Ok here's the scoop on this issue. First of all, I was wrong about the version, the one in vaelpak-extras/replaced/browser.apk is the HTC version. The problem is that Astro doesn't start the appinstaller correctly and instead takes you to the screen to uninstall Browser, which it won't let you do.

To get around this, install EStrongs File Explorer, and use that to install the htc browser from extras, it will ask if you want to replace the system one. Then you have to go into Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All > Internet > Clear Data. If you skip this step then the browser will likely FC when you try to launch it.

If you decide to go back to the AOSP browser, just uninstall Internet, and it will revert to Browser.

I would say assume the same process may be required for installing some or all of the other replacements.

Edit:

(Applies only to 2.0)

I found the cause of the missing wireless tethering.. During first boot, previous versions are removed if found. Since it was supposed to be updated to pre8, I had it remove pre7. Well, since pre8 didn't actually make it in, the apk is removed before it has a chance to be installed. *FAIL*

pre7 and pre8 are posted a few pages back. I'm going to go through and collect links to all of the posted patches and such and add a section both in post #2 and the live changelog doc to them (link in my sig if you don't know about it yet) You could also just get it out of the rom zip from data/app to install.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kewlkade:
1. Sounds good...I opted for the BFS kernal. Does anyone use ModMusic apk? I tried it and I kept getting force close only after a track was finished playing(which was strange). I'll give it another go with 2.0.

2. I notice your using ADW for a launcher and that is what I liked. I love the skinning/downloadable themes and swipe up/down features. Again I'm coming from CM6 and needed 4G...etc

3. Is it possible to use the default Android keyboard? I seem to type better with it then that HTC one.

4. I also flashed that Circle Battery icon you had posted but I thought it would be green..lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
1. I don't have any actual music on my sd just sounds, but I installed Music Mod and was able to play through a dozen or so of them without an issue. Have you tried rebooting? Anyone else willing to test this?

3. I've been fighting with that keyboard for a while now trying to get it in there. With some of the things I learned in the last few days I'm going to give it another shot and see how it goes. The HTC keyboard is CRAP and makes me want to throw my damn phone every time I have to use it. If you've never tried it I would highly recommend installing Swype from vaelpak-extras on your sd. You'll have to go to settings > lang & keyboard, and enable it, then long press a text box, select input type, and then pick swype. - http://swypeinc.com/tips-tricks.html has some videos that explain it and even for people that have been using it I would suggest watching some of these. There are little things that you would probably never figure out just using it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigant262:
Vael I'd highly recommend using pre8 for wireless tether. That's the most stable IMO. Have not had any problems at all with that version.
[EVO 4G Android Development] atypical1:
Sweet, thanks for the quick reply. I don't remember having to do that for swype before so it slipped my mind.

Valepack 1.1:

Stock -

Linpack - 35

Quad - 1171

King -

Linpack -32

Quad - 1226

These were ran with a stock install of the rom, nothing else loaded up. No overclock in place, no memory management in place, nothing terminated to improve scores.

Ran each benchmark 10 times and posted the best score I received. No idea on battery life yet. the stock kernel (netarchy DC comp) seemed smoother and more responsive to touch input in my limited testing do far.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Ah, this is something that also creeps up on many roms from time to time. It's a known issue with the OS. Sometimes I have to be rather persistent, but usually canceling it when it hangs after downloading and re-trying will usually get it to go through.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Ok so I added my Facebook account and I do get the sync icon permanently appearing and nothing syncs. I haven't had FB even added in a few weeks so that one escaped me in testing. I'll check out the logs as soon as I have a chance and see if I can figure out what's going on there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Working on the Facebook sync issue. I'll have to play with this for a bit, it could be an issue w/ FB also as I've run into it before. This may also be the issue that pops up if you don't add the account during the initial run through the setup wizard.

As far as the unlock screen while making a call, unfortunately, this is contained int he Phone app and it's too deeply integrated to replace currently. Believe me, I've wasted many hours on just such a goal.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jfashion:
Thanks a bunch for the effort, great wrk
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
So far pretty good.

I went in and removed a couple of widgets that you may have missed. Removed some Sense crap like Peep and Facebook for HTC Sense, etc. And I removed the HTC Sense Music App and installed AOSP Music.

One thing that is bugging me though, I can't find the option in the Browser to disallow mobile pages. I HATE mobile pages. Any thoughts?

Edit: Got it. Went the about:debug way. Also, although I don't use it, the messages app isn't AOSP.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Facebook Sync

I re-flashed and setup my FB account during the initial setup wizard. It pulled pics and is syncing correctly. The icon did hang out on the bar longer than it seems it should have. Went into accounts and canceled sync, then did sync all, symbol came up and went away on its own. Anyone this isn't working for, did you make sure to set it up right away after first boot?

I installed AOSP Music like I would any other app. Works fine.

I also uninstalled any and every htc widget. There were, I'd say, about 4-6 still in there.

I also installed Sprint TV. It's probably the only useful Sprint app.

Might try to get the AOSP messages app in there soon.

I must have not worded myself correctly. When I go to update Rom Manager after a fresh install of this rom it downloads, then when it goes to install it does not hang.

Btw.. this Hi Res stuf... WOW. LOVE IT. Only a handful of apps aren't playing nice, like engadget. But for the most part everything is upscaled fine. And damn o damn it looks great. What I love the most about it is I can see so much more on the already huge ass screen, mainly in web browsing. Btw, it doesn't work for any other ROM right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigant262:
Didn't even know there was a pre9. Lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Agreed I think it just looks old and clunky now when I don't have hires applied :) With 5 col and 7 rows I can fit so much into ADW, and widget scaling to boot. Kinda bummer since I paid for LP, but I consider it $ well spent. The only thing I am really missing is the scrolling dock. For the apps that don't scale properly, the best way to remedy it is email the dev. If it is as simple as modifying the layout xml, I might be able to provide modified apps as needed that do scale properly, but I will have to sign them so attempts to update them from the market would fail.

The Music Mods thing is (I assume) the one with (Froyo Only) in the title, by eliot stocker.
