After installing HTC mms they started working.

Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ReallyShawn:
Vaelek great job on the Rom. There are always a few growing pains ... but that is part of 'romming'. There are basic rooted roms that will work as well as stock with perhaps tethering. However those of us interested in more significant changes accept that it takes time to iron out some problems. Ok now off my soap box.

In terms of the bare bones style rom, that would be fine with me. I un-install apps I don't want, so it doesn't matter much. It is a wee bit easier to add what you want instead of removing what you don't.

Sent from my EVO running Vaelek 1.3
[EVO 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
How do you keep the mms from being compressed in this rom????
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
With 1.3, you just flash over 1.1 with no wipe or do you still have to? BTW, Getting 19 hours of battery life out of this Rom :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ronnyb29:
Just a heads up that I flashed 1.3a over 1.3 and it broke maps. I'll be wiping (again) and doing 1.3a directly this afternoon.
[EVO 4G Android Development] skydeaner:
Had a bad download

Forget this post

Love this rom absolute perfection once the kernel is updated. Great stuff. Where were you when I had my hero lol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Try Kings Kernal #6. Im on Vaels 1.1 with this Kernal and the 2 together is stable and great. It might be worth a shot on 1.3.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
It's possible that you ended up with 2 versions because the location was fixed. If there is a com.google.android.maps.apk (I think that was the name) in /data/app and /system/app, try removing the one in data. That might save from having to wipe and reflash.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ctyke:
On 1.3a with Kings BFS #5 and working well. I did do a complete wipe after some issues of installing 1.3a over 1.3

As for the pre-installed apps, don't really care either way.

I am wondering if the Cyanogen version of Exchange Mail could get incorporated into this ROM. I really miss using the volume buttons to navigate up/down the list of emails.
[EVO 4G Android Development] skydeaner:
Wow i can't stand using the volume buttons for anything period, maybe yours are more responsive than mine or something.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stangdriverdoug:
Just wanted to chime in and give my input. Been running this rom almost all day and love it. I've been running it with kings#4 and I am really diggin it!

CM6 / Snap Powered
[EVO 4G Android Development] halorin:
Really? I couldn't get #5 to run well on 1.3a. #4's a beast, though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ctyke:
Yup, not sure if it matters but I switched to oc widget instead of set CPU, seams more stable now. I switched over while using #4.
[EVO 4G Android Development] deekoi:
Running this rom with King BFS#4 and it's working great so far.

First time on launcher pro and i'm loving it. feels like a new phone. Slight learning curve but picked it all up in a few mins.

4g worked for me.

I had a couple of issues with titanium backup loading some stuff but I restarted and it all worked fine after. Couple more issues came up but again, restarted and everything worked out fine.

So far it's all good.
[EVO 4G Android Development] robmiller:
loving this rom thanks. having trouble with installing new flash though..
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
SOB I missed one somehow. In order to apply the Handcent update that came out today it looks like you'll need to uninstall it first. Trying to update will give the signature error..

Just a small update also, working slowly on the next version. As of right now, BFS #5 is baked in and I've added custom SetCPU settings to prevent accidentally going too high and locking up. Since everyone seems pretty happy with 1.3a, I want to put 1.4 though a bit more testing before posting it since every release so far has had at least 1 stupid thing overlooked.

What I can say so far, is that on a fresh install of the next version as of right now I'm getting close to 1400-1430 Quadrant with no OC. With OC it's damn close to 1600.

One last quick note, I've tried to keep up but I'm sure there's a few posts I've overlooked. If anyone has posted a question, problem, or anything else that has not gotten a response or been addressed, please give a shout.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Through the Market? Specific error? I'm not showing any updates for Flash on my end right now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] robmiller:
it shows installed on phone but when i go to market it shows free next to it and says manual update??? having issues with updating things in market too not sure if its your end though. it just takes forver and get alot of error. i have to try in over and over again to get them to work. im at work but am absolulely gonna donate this rom is aswesome. you have very good customer service too!!! lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] LMMT:
I think this may have been overlooked, it might help someone:

[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
I think when I rolled back the GAPPS update I may have also rolled back the market fix that was applied previously, which can cause slow downloads and seeming to hang when it gets to installing :( It's quite possible that the flash install that's in the rom still has a bad signature. If you try to update an app with a bad sig, it will fail and then not appear as installed in the Market anymore. I've had 1 report of Google Search having the same problem, but it's not showing updates available for that for me either :confused:

With the next release I think I'm going to dump the fusion base and start with a fresh stock rom so I know every single change that's been made. Hopefully that will resolve some of the odd issues that have popped up.

In spite of the issues, I'm glad you like the rom!
[EVO 4G Android Development] MrsVaelek:
The garbage still needs to go out ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Now that my phone is fantastic and fast..... anybody know how to unlock the memory on this thing!
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
What do you mean unlock the memory?
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Isnt there a way to use go over the 512mb limit?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ReallyShawn:
Now that was funny! I literally did LOL.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
There is only 512mb RAM in the EVO so... Are you thinking of Apps2SD?
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
My mistske. Is there a good way to save on memory though?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Well, the more apps you have running, the more memory is in use. Some apps terminate when not in the foreground, others continue running in the background, others go idle when backgrounded, it all depends. Android process management is very good at its job for the most part and you should never actually run out of ram.

It's not a freebie, but the best app I know of currently for monitoring usage is System Panel. But basically, if you do something that requires more free ram than you have, the OS will purge what it needs to to get the job done. I recommend things like task killers *only* for apps that won't die *and* are taxing the cpu while backgrounded. Killing an app that is idle/inactive, in the end will actually cause higher battery use than leaving it alone (which would be none at all) as the OS will see it died and automatically schedule it to restart. System Panel is the only app I know of that shows active vs inactive processes, and can track CPU usage over time per app.

The EVO seems to do very well with the 512mb it has in my opinion.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bacdoliljo:
Someone needs to make a full Aosp rom. A true non sense rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] laydros:
WiiMote won't work on any ROM based on the HTC Roms.

Someone has to basically build a ROM from source to swap out the Bluetooth stack, and the only one like that at this point is CM.

Vaelek, I'm looking forward to trying this. I've been looking for a Sense-removed 2.2 still based on the HTC release, so everything would work. I probably would have done one by now if I wasn't working 60+ hours a week lately.

In terms of the AOSP dialer, I tried to shove it in a pretty basic 2.2 ROM and it didn't work. Have you or anyone else done it successfully?

I'll probably try this out later today, but I can go ahead and say I would love to have something with AOSP everything: dialer, contacts, calendar, calculator, browser, etc. And would you mind throwing in the stock launcher in addition to LP?

Edit: and would you mind sharing how you change the default wallpaper when cooking? I think I've seen a default-wallpaper.jpg somewhere in the framework, but I'm not sure if that is really it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Skitzi:
Have you check out CM6? They just released RC2.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
The clock is AOSP
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
That's odd. Are you restoring any account settings afterwards? Like I said the only time I've ever run into it was when I didn't put in my google account right away. I've had it on multiple roms, this one included, but after re-flashing and setting it up it went away. I assume you wiped everything also before flashing?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
CM6 is the best candidate for that. I have gotten my own AOSP to build and install but things are horribly broken in it, although the resolution seems *double* which is intriguing.

I'll get as close as I can with this though...
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
In testing I tried replacing the Contacts app with AOSP and was unsuccessful until I signed the apk, maybe the same issue you had with the Dialer.

The default wallpaper gave me a run, I almost released without changing it because every time I thought I found it, the stock one kept showing up. It is in /system/framework/framework-res.apk titled default_wallpaper.jpg

I'm going to work on getting everything AOSP I can into it and get a new version uploaded tonight.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
Can't wait.
[EVO 4G Android Development] twigums:
Sync dosent work at all with this rom. Will try it again later.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
I've been using it for over a week and haven't noticed any synching problems. Is it a particular service or everything? Just doing nothing, fc, ?

It's pulled down my contacts after every install no problem so far..
[EVO 4G Android Development] twigums:
It wont sync anything on mine, facebook, twitter, contacts, gmail nothing. Ive restarted, im gonna clear and reset again see if it helps at all.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
This just in

Took a little trial and error to get this to be stable, but I think I've got everyone's requests filled here.

v1.1

Removed some more widgets that were missed

Added AOSP Browser, Contacts, Dialer, Calendar, Calculator, 3D Gallery, Launcher

The HTC Contacts/Dialer had to be left in for stability, just select which you want to use, AOSP can be uninstalled

The HTC Album was also left but uninstallable so you have a choice, I personally don't like the 3D Gallery

Download link added to first post as soon as it finishes uploading
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigant262:
Sweet, been looking for a rom with aosp apps. Can't wait to try this out. And I'm sure someone has asked, but didn't look, (sorry), can I use kings kernal with this rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
impatiently waiting for that download link...
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigant262:
Same here. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Eta for 1.1 upload ~30min.. dealing with 40k/s at the moment..

To answer the KiNgxKernel question, I just tested both #5 and #6 and both work with VaelPak without a hitch. I tested on 1.1 but 1.0 should work just as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigant262:
Thanks for answering, Kings kernel plus 1.1 sounds awesome. Hopefully it will upload a little faster then 30 minutes. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Bummer! Upload stalled at 88% :(

Trying again, using a different host this time. Going a bit faster so far.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigant262:
Dammit. lol. I gotta work in the morning, but I want to stay up and flash this! lol. If you need help uploading, I can try and help possibly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Already at 22%, definitely going better this time.

I've been a member here since 2007 but this is my first real contribution, the fact that anyone is interested enough to stay up waiting for it is... well... makes it all worth it :)

(31% now that I've finished writing this response, moving along nicely)
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Thank you for the info... again! :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Anytime :) Doh, I said task panel, I meant System Panel
[EVO 4G Android Development] ReallyShawn:
So I have been running 1.3A with the Kling Kernal #5 and SetCpu at max 1152 MHz. It has run fine with no force closes. This is a fast, responsive and stable rom. Great job!

Sent from my EVO.
[EVO 4G Android Development] glenzos:
Well my BT hasn't been wigging out anymore, it must have been on crack that day. But my Droid used to go nuts all the time, So no worries. Here's an update on everything else, I am still running 1.1 and everything is great, mms, email exchange, market "update all" is there and working, 4g is perfect, (we have in Vegas so HA!). I may upgrade to 1.3a for the adb wireless. As for Freindstream and Facebook, don't need it, (its for kids and its gay:rolleyes:). I haven't done a battery time line yet to see how long it lasts. But I'm possitive it will be an easy 40 hours with normal usage, I'll keep you posted, and Thanks again, Great job
[EVO 4G Android Development] legendr34:
very fast and stable ROM using latest King kernel! (set to 1152MHz, getting 39 in linpack and 14xx in quadrant)

Anyone else notice the dial pad looks fuzzy?
[EVO 4G Android Development] johnpucillo:
Downloaded and attempted to flash but received an error when I tried to flash .zip saying it was "bad". I'm hoping it was just a beat download cuz I really want to try this rom. Going to attempt it again
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Had to be a bad download.. Md5 is in first post.
[EVO 4G Android Development] halorin:
Can anyone get the latest king bfs kernel to run well on this ROM? The browser scrolling is notably worse with it compared to the kernel the Rom comes with.

I've wiped both caches before installing, and I use Clockwork. I don't know. Maybe I just need to give it more time to settle in.

After about 20 minutes it started running a lot better. Not sure why. Ah well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ctyke:
I flashed last night, wiped both caches, and it seems to be FAS (Fast As S#$%) this morning.

Maybe let it settle.
[EVO 4G Android Development] d3xn2o:
Only problem Im Seeing with this Rom is Google Maps not saving...

I can download from the Market Use Navigation but if I Reboot for any reason Maps / Navigation Disappears and I need to reinstall thru the market

Any Insight on this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ducky1131:
should v1.3a have a different md5 than v1.3?
[EVO 4G Android Development] halorin:
Yeah. It definitely is running better now. I guess I'm used to Windows Mobile still with how it slowed down over time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] deekoi:
I'm on 1.3a using king BFS#4 and loving it. Works great!

But I don't get those scores at all. I get about 1100-1200. I don't have setcpu or oc widget on or installed. How are you getting these speeds? what kernal are you running?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Crap... 1.3a is 0ba5e2fd35c241d0f439a22ca9abd364

Thanks for pointing that out, updating first post..
[EVO 4G Android Development] deekoi:
There is a free one on the market, does that show the app usage?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
That was with either BFS #4 or 5 I forget now there's been so many updates lol. About to test out #6, should be faster yet even. The tests I ran were after flashing a fresh install, and after waiting for any synching to complete, before installing any other apps. If you run the test while it's syncing scores will be noticeably lower.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Hmmmm.. This is on the latest build? I haven't noticed any problems with it disappearing. Both maps and navigation have been working fine. If you flashed over an old build without wiping the problem is likely that you have a maps apk in both /system/app and /data/app, and/or lingering signature issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
From the description "Full version ($2.99) adds....long-term application resource monitor..." so it will likely show real-time info but no logging.
[EVO 4G Android Development] d3xn2o:
I'll Check both Which should I Delete?

I found it in System but not in Data...

I deleted Maps from System I'll Reboot redownload Then Reboot and see if it sticks
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Sorry, the one in /data/app you would delete
[EVO 4G Android Development] d3xn2o:
Oh lol opps... Oh well we'll see how it goes...

I didnt see it in there though

YAY! its fixed... Okay Well as a side note... This Rom kicks Ass
[EVO 4G Android Development] awareunlikeu:
Well Ive posted twice to see if someone could work in HTC mail so a scrollable mail widget would work with this Excellent Rom. But haven't found a fix. I can install the mail app but when I go to add the widget, it's not there. I found a temp fix called moxier mail and gmail popup that works for now.. But I would realy like to see the mail widget that comes stock with the EVO so all i have to do thumb over to my mail. Call me lazy I know...but as I said in the other post.. This would complete the rom for me, as it is by far the best rom to grace my evil Evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Hey sorry for missing your post before. The htc mail widget (along with all htc widgets) are not possible to use in this rom because they only work with sense ui. The only hope is if launcher pro is ever able to support them. Moxier and touchdown come with the closest I've seen but still no scrolling
[EVO 4G Android Development] awareunlikeu:
Thank you for the quick reply Vael.. I kinda figed that it was a compatibility problem. Its a small price to pay not to have this excellent rom you have conjured. Hopefully Launcher will put this in an future update. Thank u once again
[EVO 4G Android Development] johnpucillo:
Awesome ROM. I love the choices in apps. It is quick and stable, linpack averaging 37 and quadrant up to 1540. Great job Vael this is just what I've been looking for
[EVO 4G Android Development] johnpucillo:
Forgot to add I achieved those scores with King Kernel BFS4
[EVO 4G Android Development] Radiobamboo:
Problems with voice to text in VaelPak?

Hi folks, I flashed and love the rom but I have a couple problems. Anytime I use the speech to text function it just sits there reading "Speak now." Also, long press on the search button doesn't even bring up the voice search function.

Is anyone else having this problem?

Also my wifi has been borked since flashing this rom. I tried about 6 different kernels including the stock one & nothing has fixed it. A friend said I needed to unroot & re-root to fix it. I hope it won't be that complicated.

Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] xzulez:
hey johnpucillo, I also have bfs4. How do you have yours set up? Do you use setcpu?

juice defender?
[EVO 4G Android Development] yungwunn911:
Syncd with Facebook....but can't figure out how to link contacts even with the same exact name....
[EVO 4G Android Development] needoZ:
You need to either upgrade or install Voice Search. If it is already installed for you, uninstall it and install a fresh copy from Market. That should fix it. (It did for me.)
[EVO 4G Android Development] johnpucillo:
I run Set CPU bare bones with a profile set for screen off very low. Other than that I overclock to 1152 max and 998 minimum. I haven't had time yet to play around with profiles to conserve my battery but I will today. How about you?
[EVO 4G Android Development] runner77:
Great rom but I still cant send or recieve MMS using the new handsent or stock messenger app.

Ive installed three different apps but I have not had any success.

Anyone having the same issues? Anyone know a fix?
[EVO 4G Android Development] xzulez:
:( well I'm a noob at this stuff and I still don't know how to use setcpu, other than having 245min and 998max. Don't know how to set up the profiles, that why I was asking you. I just wanted to get an idea on how to set mine up. Forgot to ask you what do you mean by bare bones?
[EVO 4G Android Development] josercoaster:
my phone crashes after email sunc then goes blank. Now I cant see yhe homescreen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] efrommel:
I would like to see the phone app in full aosp. Because I'm using this Rom that is working beautifully but just see that when I receive a call, it shows the stock phone app and the scroll down answer bar. I want the aosp mode. I don't like to auto decline people when taking my phone out of the pocket :(. Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] deekoi:
LAGGING! Anyone having major lagging issues? I opened up system panel and it shows the cpu at 998 mhz and cpu usage at 98.7% and stays around there. Non of the programs listed are doing much. Even after I kill all programs, it hangs up on something.

Restarting it usually clears it up but it's happened to me a few times.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
This is on the wish list.. As it is now, the htc phone app is too integrated and the aosp phone won't work. This is where the htc slide to answer comes from. I agree, it sucks, but we're stuck with it for now. I plan on doing some experimenting this weekend.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
I would guess either you flashed without wiping, or installed something afterwards that is not playing nice. Based on all of the other comments I have to assume this is not an issue with the rom itself. Or you flashed a kernel not yet confirmed to work?
[EVO 4G Android Development] deekoi:
Thanks for the quick reply!

I've been running this one since it came out and still on king bfs #4. Haven't changed anything and it runs great for the most part.

Thanks for the rom!

Just wondering if anyone else had this come up or if anyone knew why.

Any idea on the next one? I'm excited to test the next one on and probably gonna give the newer king bfs a shot too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
SetCPU

For those unsure of how to best use SetCPU, this may noe be the *best*, but here are my settings I've been using for some time now:

Base (tab 1) 245min 998max - Ondemand

Profiles:

temp > 50 - priority 100, 245min/422max - powersave

battery < 20% - priority 99, 245min/460max - ondemand

screen off - priority 90, 245min/460max - powersave

charging/full - priority 80, 245min/998max - ondemand

charging usb/full - priority 79, 691min/998max - ondemand**

Then on the advanced tab I have 80000, 90, 0, 100 (top to bottom)

**The reason for this one is that when transfering over usb, I found anything less than 691mhz will slow down the transfer. The pri is low enough to never trigger unless the charging/full profile is turned off as needed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xzulez:
thanks vael, I'll give it a try. Do you also use other battery saving apps? If you do can you show me how to set them up? the reason I'm asking is cause I had setcpu, ultimate juice, process manager in your rom and for some reason it seemed to drained my battery alot. Before I installed those apps I was getting excellent battery life on your rom. Well maybe its because I don't know how to use them. :(
