How to change the font?

Thanks to tjohnsonjr for a fantastic rom. I am a newbie, just rooted my phone and flashed this rom. Like everything except the font. How do I install the original font?I will appreciate if someone gives me a detail steps by steps instruction. Thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
There is a link on the 1st post. Its the AOSP font. Download and flash.
[EVO 4G Android Development] iphone2evo:
tjohnsonjr sorry to bother you again. Could you elaborate little bit. Do I have to just move the font to sd and then flash nonsense again? And it will automatically change to AOSP or do I have to do something else? Sorry I am completely new to this. Thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
No. Just Download the zip and then flash through recovery just you did with the Rom. Don't wipe anything. http://www.4shared.com/file/5EFC_v0z/AOSPFont.html
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
I'll add it back in. Update should be soon. It will include the Miui web Browser...:)
[EVO 4G Android Development] docsparks:
tj, im back man, dont know what i was thinking.

how long till an update? worth waiting or just go with whats current?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nmartin33:
Is it possible to get a Statusbar without the battery percentage? Just standard battery icon?

Or the gingerbread bar?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Good to have you back. Update should be soon.
[EVO 4G Android Development] snandlal:
Ya a gingerbread theme with this rom would be sweet
[EVO 4G Android Development] docsparks:
people that ask for you to code a different lockscreen, really should just try the app "WidgetLocker" lets you have any type of lock screen you want, works really well, and lets ya have widgets /different wallpapers, etc.

instead of having to code out special request..

#15 and #17

I keep coming back to this ROM because it seems to be the most put together of all the ROMs I run into, and will probably be my daily driver until the CM crew releases a ROM with 4G.

In the meantime, I have one question: Where can I get the #15 and #17 kernels. I keep seeing posts talking about them, but despite my best searches, can't seem to find them. Do they have a different name in the main forum?
[EVO 4G Android Development] praytorain:
Camcorder and VCard

I flashed this rom last night. I noticed my camcorder does not work. I have tried 800x480 and 1280x720. When I hit the record button, nothing happens. The camera still is showing but the controls all lock up. It doesn't record and I have to restart in order to use the camera again.

Also, maybe by design?, I cannot send a VCard via Messaging.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:
TJ, did you see my post about the 4G issue? Can you let me know about that please?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nmartin33:
Where would I be able to find it once you get a chance to make it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
I don't have 4G in my area but I'll look into it for you.

Sorry. Ive been busy with work. I'll do it tonight.
[EVO 4G Android Development] M Diddy:
TJ, LOVE this ROM. It's exactly what I was looking for coming from my Driod 1.

Once question, how do I enable Swype? I see it's installed, but I don't have the option to disable the HTC_IME keyboard and enabled Swype. Where is that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Thanks. Long press a text field then select INPUT METHOD and select Swype.
[EVO 4G Android Development] M Diddy:
Actually, I figured it out a few minutes after I posted, but thanks!

One other question, is there anyway to get the Facebook App (NON htc) to sync with the ASOP contact list the way it does on vanilla Android?

I'd rather not have to use the HTC Fb app if I can get this to work.

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] nmartin33:
Any idea why I can't download or send mms when on wifi?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Question, does something force close or it just won't send?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nmartin33:
it does not force close, circle in handcent just keeps spinning.

If I just turn off Wifi, it will complete the send or download without me doing anything else.

I did a full wipe before updated to current version.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tomyboombotz:
can u maybe not package your rom to wipe data and system everytime i install it !!
[EVO 4G Android Development] 2JZ GZE:
Does anyone else have this problem:

When you make a call and put it to your ear, the rom automatically puts the phone back into the homescreen and away from the dialer screen where you can see who you are talking to?

This is driving me nuts!

is this a bug that was mentioned before?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Yes. I will change it in the next release. I had reasons for doing it but I will change it.

Never had that problem. Still testiong the update, will be up soon.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mikegoldnj:
I really enjoy this ROM but I have been having horrible battery life. Have the updated radios. Signal strength seems to fluctuate a lot. I have not been able to get more than four hours on a charge.
[EVO 4G Android Development] docsparks:
Yeah, im having some battery life issues myself. First time my battery has died on my today in weeks. Full night charges n everything.

Ill man up with the storm, but it is worth noting atleast.

Signal seems fine for me, however i wouldn't normally notice, coverage in detroit is awesome.

I also dont have the issue with the phone to ear- it has the screen off, and when i double check to see if the call started, im on in call screen.. so i thinks all is well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mykenyc:
HOLY CRAP i been through all these damn roms, cyan not working for me cause of the new camera, this is exactly what i been looking for, and i co-sign with this guy can someone please port a FULL gingerbread theme, i'm willing to help if someone point me to the right direction.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -viperboy-:
Don't know what's up but I tried to flash 4.1, and it boots up in in Settings it shows that it's v4.0 even though I downloaded 4.1 from here and the .zip on my memory card shows it's 4.1. Did you not change the build.prop or did you accidentally put 4.0 in the OP and not 4.1? :confused: Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Yeah I forgot to change it.

[EVO 4G Android Development] KirkH420:
WOW nice, I just flashed Android 2.3.1 Gingerbread ROM for Evo 4G (V1.0.0a10 released dec 27). This ROM work and has a nice UI but there is no 4g support. WiFi doesn't detect my home network. Drocap2 cannot take screenshots and WifiTether unable to create hotspot. Does your version have these issues? It should be noted that the version I flashed IS Gingerbread not a theme or some type of emulation.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
I think you posted in the wrong thread:)
[EVO 4G Android Development] KirkH420:
Thanks Thread Nazi.......... "NO thread for U!"

I guess you just ignored the part where I asked a question, and just wanted to be the first idiot to complain about where i posted my question. We aren't all Senior Member OPs, we come to this forum for answers and info. So next time, say something USEFUL..... if you are capable, you've been here 4 years and received only 32 thanks. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] M Diddy:
#1. He's the guy who made the ROM so yeah, he is very helpful.

#2. Try actually READING for information instead of asking questions that have been asked 100 times before. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
This is my ROM. I'm not being a "THREAD NAZI". This is a Sprint Sense based Rom, not AOSP. Its clearly stated on the OP. To answer your question, 4G, wifi, both cameras, etc, etc, etc, all works just fine. If I misunderstood your post, then I apologize, but don't be so sore in the booty. I am always willing to help if I can.

no worries if not.

Check your phone to see if its staying awake? It was reported that signing into Facebook was keeping the awake. Its seems to be fixed in the update.

Pay your rent!!! Its not good to be homeless with a nice phone:)

what happened to stoners being friendly? i sure as hell am nice

Hey docksparks, i actually am friendly. However People on this forum simply forget that EVERY thread is available on Google searches. People search for information and then its like sometimes people expect them to read the entire forum site to before they can ask a valid question. If you don't, then you get to watch a bunch of opinionated, w0w playing, code monkeys give their snide comments. Apparently it isn't acceptable for me to make similar comments because im new here. I believe the idea of a web community is to attract more people, thus increasing the site's traffic and add revenue. Thanks for the warm welcome from everybody and the helpful advice that i do find here. If somebody doesn't like where i post at, ban me or Shut up about it. This forum rocks but i never seen so many whiners in one gathering or so many people who comment on things that wasn't any of their business. Buy hey that is life, we must always take the good ones with 15 extra bad-useless ones.

Getting wakelock from Android System and a lot of syncing going on after wipe and update ...
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Thank very much for that. Its crazy cause I've been doing this since back when we had Enclair(2.1) and never had anyone came at me like that. Oh well. Hope he enjoys the ROM.:)

The Mirror link is fixed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vinconti:
like i said i know i speak for everyone when i say that I can't believe how absurd it is that you decide to help/rebuild for every single person with their weird idiosyncratic requests.

speaking of that, will you rebuild me a version that has a different key pad? (just kidding. sort of. do you know which file the numeric keypad is in framework? i want to have buttons that have actual 4 sides.)

Installation error!

I want to test out this ROM, but I keep getting the installation error! I flashed a lot of ROMs, this is the first time I got the installation error. And yes, I always wipe everything before I flash new ROM. This is the error message I got:

E: Error in move_cache_sd

(status 65280)

E: Failure at line 5:

run_program PACKAGE: move_cache_sd

Installation aborted.

Any idea why I got this error? I would appreciate any help. Really like to try out the ROM. I'm running Vaelpak rite now. I aslo have Fresh and Virus backed up.

Thanks in advance for any help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
You are trying to install the App2sd version. You have to have your sd card partitioned before flashing that one. NOTE: you can use ROM Manager to partition your sd card but IT WILL ERASE EVERYTHING ON YOUR SD CARD!!! So back up your stuff. If you dont want to go through all that load then download the non-Apps2sd version.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thevumeister:
Thanks for your help. I have one question though. I flashed ROM with apps2sd (fresh) before with no problem. I like apps2sd, that's what draws me to this ROM. I do have ext partition on my sd card. So, why do I have to partition to flash this ROM? I didn't have to when I flashed Fresh which has apps2sd.

Thanx.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
I'm not sure how the Apps2sd is setup for the Fresh ROM. I am starting to notice that partitioning the sd card with Rom Manager tends to work better.
[EVO 4G Android Development] iceman99393:
I love this rom very stable nice touches i really like epic launcher. But i was wandering why is hulu on here when it dosent work? And sometimes my lockscreen disapears all together.
[EVO 4G Android Development] whatsitsnamenow:
Can anyone get the wireless tether to work? I get FC with wireless tether pre 8. The newer version I can't get it to connect to the internet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Hulu was left in by accident.
[EVO 4G Android Development] iceman99393:
Uninstall that wifi tether then reinstall it and works fine

How about the icons from epic 4g the blue icons in status bar etc...theres a guy in the q&a forum who has a theme like the epic but its pretty broke attempt
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Update!!! Added a black taskbar that now battery percentage. Just flash the zip on the OP
[EVO 4G Android Development] hawt:
Been running the new update all day with no issues, thanks TJ.

The only problem I ran into was that Titanium Backup would restart my phone whenever I tried to restore everything. I think because I never switched to their recommended version of busybox when I made the backups on 4.1.

Oh well! Took some time but everything is running smooth.
[EVO 4G Android Development] andnad:
Is there any way to change the lock-screen through the rom?

And the miren browser is pretty useless imo i just froze it.

EDIT: A reboot fixed all the fc's.

I'm really liking this rom all the features are amazing!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Ratzinc:
Getting terrible battery life with this rom. Less than three hours with little use has dropped 50%, and that's with a 3500 mah battery!

Edit:

Even on conservative mode in set cpu, will not idle lower than 768mhz, what's going on? Had to put it on battery saver and under clock just so it doesn't die within the hour!
[EVO 4G Android Development] andnad:
Amen, I'm noticing that now too as I'm running it and testing everything out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Can you guys remove the Miren Browser and test the battery life for me please?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
like Preludedrew's AOSP Rom? What kind a lockscreen do you want?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Ratzinc:
I would like to, however whenever I try to install apps with titanium back up and restart, they reinstall or do not uninstall.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
You can download Terminal from the market. Then type:

1) su

2) adb shell

3) cd system/app

4) rm MirenBrowser.apk

5) exit

6) exit

i get fantastic battery with this rom and the kernel found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=876590
[EVO 4G Android Development] andnad:
Something like the vanilla lock screen with the sliders to unlock and mute.

I did remove Miren browser with titanium backup successfully btw.

I have run in to a new problem though. When rebooting after flashing last night I randomly got stuck in an endless reboot cycle at the android screen so I had to reflash. This has happened twice to me so far.

As for the battery life I can't say much yet because the last time I got stuck in the reboot cycle i had to restore to my original rom and have yet to reflash but I will today.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:
Which one did you download? I never know which one to pick!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
Try this one: http://www.multiupload.com/S78JQ1L6D5
[EVO 4G Android Development] andnad:
I'm guessing the lastest aosp kernel since this is an aosp rom, correct?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
I can make make a stock looking lockscreen. Don't know why you are getting bootloops unless you changed something. For battery life, try the kernel that was suggested a few posts back. I am getting great battery life with it. It took almost 2 hours for my phone to go from 100% to 99%.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tjohnsonjr:
No its not. This is a Sprint Sense based Rom
[EVO 4G Android Development] andnad:
The one you posted or the link to the thread?
[EVO 4G Android Development] PittsburghJim:
There's 10 kernels listed on that page.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Burt Reynolds:
Post #2, top link. The one that say's...

HTC KERNEL #15 v7

When you flash it and look at your software info, it will say...

Kernel version 2.6.32.17

root@paris-laptop #2

Kudo's to Mr Johnson (Jr.) on the latest ROM update. It seems as if evrything is smooth as butter. And in conjunction with this kernel, battery life seems to be unbelievable. I'm almost wondering if it's a trick.

Happy new year to all.

[EVO 4G Android Development] SamJamz:

[EVO 4G Android Development] NOMster:
i'm having the same issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] hawt:
I am using 4.2 with Apps2SD and the kernel that TJ recommended earlier.

I am getting pretty solid battery life, however my phone is also wakelocked again.

My phone is at 38% battery, but the Uptime and awake time are exactly the same (Up and down time of 12:21:09). 38% on 12 hours isn't bad but I left it unplugged when I went to sleep so that could account for the good battery life.

Here are some pictures:

I had GPS, 3G, WiFi, and AutoSync all turned off last night so I'm not really sure what could be causing the uptime.

Anyone else having issues?

Edit: Maybe it is related to sync. I just restarted my phone and after 5 minutes I went into "Accounts and Sync" and the bottom left button says "Cancel Sync".

If I click on my corporate account it says "Sync Calendar" and then there is the sync icon next to it, but it's not moving. The bottom button says "Sync Now". It also does this for under Google for "Sync Contacts" and "Sync Calendar". They aren't actively syncing, the icon isn't moving, but it is there.

The problem seems to be whenever my phone turns on, it doesn't sync correctly. I reset my phone twice and each time I looked at it 10 minutes later and it said "Cancel Sync" like it never synced correctly. If I cancel sync and then hit "Sync All" it seems to work fine. Just noticing the problem on start up.

There doesn't seem to be rhyme or reason to what doesn't sync upon start up. It changes everytime. Before it was corporate and google calendars, the second time it was Facebook and Google contacts and weather.

Edit 2: A bit more detail. If I turn off AutoSync and then turn it back on, it won't sync. The icons pop up next to all of the different sync options but they never spin or actually sync. I then have to hit cancel sync. Things only sync properly if I click the "Sync All" button. If I turn AutoSync off then back on, thing screw up. So it looks like the problem isn't necessarily with syncing, it's with Automatically Syncing.

Hope this helps. Anyone else having this problem?
