Just less HTC stuff read the post under it @

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7699236&postcount=85

it has a pic of what is out

on another note... I factory reset and flashed Netarchy's kernel... root fine... flash KK#6 kills root... Flash back still dead... ill report to king
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Nice find, I'll check it out tonight and see about getting it added in the next build
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
I was just looking at what you removed. I removed a bunch of the same things but, I stopped short of a couple. Is the phone still functioning at 100% with everything you removed? I didn't remove a lot of the "official looking" htc apks like htc settings provider, or htc dm, and the like.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tilde88:
i had a force close after downloading Titanium Backup from market... but it still installed...

nothing else
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tilde88:
ok i got it with root on KK#6... only thing different i did was wipe cache and dalvik right after flashing rom...and then kernel before reboot
[EVO 4G Android Development] bdoople:
I'm digging this ROM so far. It's like an odd love child of Fresh and CM6. Two thumbs up sir.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tilde88:
yo Vaelek... just a couple things on your build.prop... i noticed on the 1.1 stagefright by default is @true

also... EVERY build.prop in any ROM has had this line

#Modify MTU from 1500 to 1472 on 3G network

ro.ril.set.mtu1472 = 1

i always set to 0... or simply remove the whole line. 1500MTU alwayss...

also

dalvik.vm.heapsize=24m

Evo = 32+friendly

EDIT: i see that you have media.stagefright.enable-http=false, however you still have media.stagefright.enable-player=true. Could a player still toggle SF even though its off by default?

I love this f@#in ROM. Just need that damn sync icon to go.

[EVO 4G Android Development] omfgitsmateo:
Sync Icon

I second that, Awesome ROM. Just needs the 4g widget and this sync icon bug fixed and I will be in heaven! Great work!
[EVO 4G Android Development] secfincorp:
Great Work

I have downloaded a bunch of roms and actually like the mix of what you kept without the sense feature. Nice work. I am as well having issues with the sync icon constantly on.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Based on the other thread you started minutes after posting this, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=7703785 I think I will leave the mtu as is for now.

The heap size I'll give a boost on the next round.

For stagefright, setting either of the two should fix the issue it's meant to. What little information I was able to find on that basically said you should disable only one of them, and I believe disabling the player line caused other possible issues. What the issues are and where I read it I really can't say anymore. All I can say with certainty, is that after having only the http line disabled, the streaming problems went away.

getting a problem wheb trying to flash via clockwork. i get error finishing BOOT: and also failure at line 431. then installation gets aborted
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tilde88:
I see... Just chirpin in a bit
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
What rom are you coming from? Have you checked the md5 to make sure it downloaded ok?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Sorry man, didn't miss it just missed the part where I responded. Just got this working. Update.zip attached. Just did a quick test and it actually does something now :)

A word of warning though, the first time I booted after installing this, ADW repeatedly FC'd. After a minute it jumped back to the boot animation, and everything came up fine that time. So if anything strange happens, just try a reboot. Might want to backup first just in case. It updates a system lib, so worst case you might have to wipe dalvik cache if you can't get it to boot afterwards.

That is odd. If it is available as an app, the widget should be available also. Maybe try uninstalling it and grabbing from the market? Or did you do the latest update on it? I noticed there is one available now but haven't updated mine yet. Perhaps the issue is in the app itself.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
That's what I did was download it from the market. I have uninstalled it a couple timesand it works when installed again but as soon as I power cycle I loose the widget option
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Market comments would suggest you aren't alone in this and the problem is the update they pushed. I've attached the version included with the rom.

Edit: This problem has nothing to do with the ROM and is purely caused by the 2.9.14 update of batsnap in the Market
[EVO 4G Android Development] BIGWORM:
Got the same problem too after updating the program. I would see the "problem loading widget" space when using adw. I haven't used any other launcher to test this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Success100:
Thanks a million dude, just curious, what was wrong with the original one?

Sent from the realm of snapdragons...
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
I pulled it straight from CM6, and it was an older version. Also think the lib it used was part of the snap kernel. Tried just grabbing the lib and that really pissed it off (as in stuck on HTC logo before boot anim). But I found a newer version that seems to have a lib that plays nice with this base.

If i install a theme that uses sense and then it installs sense, will that end up hurting my battery at all even tho im not using sense?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
I've never personally used a theme, and I haven't seen anyone post that they've tried one here other than a couple of individual battery mods.

Full themes may or may not work. Highly recommend backing up before flashing any. What theme do you have that actually installs Sense? If the zip doesn't have /system/app/Rosie.apk, then it doesn't install Sense. If it does, or if it has a bunch of widgets in there, then it could have an effect on battery, how much I can't say for sure.
[EVO 4G Android Development] midnightmaraude:
ipe dalvik cache and flash the zip. Be smart and backup first. Dalvik has to be wiped from recovery, can't just do it from rom manager. For clockwork recovery, it is on the advanced menu. (For the record, I have only ever cleared Dalvik when flashing a kernel)

Edit: Ohhh.. finally saw the changelog for 9.. I'm gonna have to install this one soon..[/QUOTE]

Thank you guys for the quick reply and patience. I hate being a noob at this. I'm confused on how to clear the Dalvik cache. I have rom manager is that what I want to use? I have downloaded 9 and have it on the sd card but what do I flash it with? Is there a utility to use wiht it or do I click on the 9 file myself and try to execute it htat way?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
You have to use recovery. power+vol-up

If you have AR, it should be on the main screen, if you have clockwork, it would be in either advanced or partition I can't remember right now. After you wipe, flash it like you would a rom zip from the recovery menu still then.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ellis125:
well i installed riptides9 and it worked and ive been using it for about a week with no problems (heres a link). I just noticed that when i rebboted after flashing it that sense was on of the options for my homescreens. im askeing about it now because i want to flash your 2.0 and im not sure if i should flash it again or not. also do i need to clear data if im flashing from 1.4 to 2.0? sry im sure this has already been answered
[EVO 4G Android Development] midnightmaraude:
:eek: I did the power and vol up. It vibrated three times and stopped. It won't power on now or do anything?! Any suggestions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
If adb is working, do

adb reboot recovery

If not, pull the battery, try again? Did you get to the white hboot screen and chose recovery from there?

If neither of the above work, pull the batt, boot normally, and open rom mgr or quick boot and tap reboot to recovery from there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] midnightmaraude:
I pulled the battery and it powers back on. So I turned it back off and did the pow vol up again and it vibrates three times and just stays powered off.

hmm
[EVO 4G Android Development] JerzyIroc:
Sorry about that Vael. I was taking about the codes to uninstall flash so I can install the newest from the market. It worked perfect for me but a friend is still on 1.3a and can't update. I tried the same codes you gave me but it didn't work. Which I didn't expect it to since I'm sure they have different file names
[EVO 4G Android Development] midnightmaraude:
ok i'm at clockwork mod recovery

do i want to wipe data/factory rest or wipe cache partition? There's also a install zip from sdcard...would I use that to install #9?

nevermind guys... I figured it out. Wiped cache and installed #9. I'm learning... thanks again Vael!
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Try re-installing clockwork recovery from rom manager?

in 1.3a it is /system/app/install_flash_player.apk

the pm line should be the same.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Some say wipe cache and dalvik cache, I personally usually just wipe dalvik cache.

In cw, I believe it's on the advanced menu

Then Install zip from sdcard is what you want yes
[EVO 4G Android Development] Chinoo:
Vael, maybe i missed it, but do you have any fix for the menu to not unlock the phone? thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] chumba8:
I love the rom it has been problem free since i downloaded it i love that the 3d launcher works since we have asop phone and browser YEAH!!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
Isn't it power + vol DOWN not power +vol up?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Chinoo:
Vol down + power
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Thought I did but the first fix I tried causes a boot loop. Still working on this.

I've seen it written both ways. Personally vol up has always done it for me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] steelersmb:
Mine has been set to 1152000 because anything higher was causing it to crash. It has always been set at this speed and I didn't change it. I did finally get it working now so we'll see what happens.

Thx bro
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mdorty:
Hey Vaelek, I don't have any questions or anything, I just wanted to say that I love your ROM :) Excellent work. I haven't had any problems so far, everything is so smooth and fast :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] steelersmb:
Is anyone else using JuiceDefender with this ROM? I sometimes have an issue where it doesn't reactivate my data connection when I turn the screen on. Just wondering what everyone's experiences have been.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sed8ing:
Juice defender is not necessary if you use setCPU (and it is much better). It works seamlessly on this ROM the only issue you may have with the program is when you try to overclock, but the underclocking (putting the CPU speed at 245 MHz when screen is off) keeps the battery from draining at all when screen is off. I had my phone at same battery level for almost two hours while screen was off.

Check out this link for info and good settings:

http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-all...erflock-disabler-save-battery-underclock.html

No need to do perflock fix, and be careful to not go above 1152 (you can try higher but phone may reboot so if you do be sure that the "set on boot" is unchecked when trying to overclock)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mdorty:
I had excellent battery life before rooting, so I never bothered with any of the "battery saving" apps. I figure running this ROM and the new #9 kernel, battery life should be even better than before I rooted.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
I use juice defender with no problems.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
So I'm working on a 2.1 right now with all the current fixes in it. BFS will be first. I'm going to get a stable damn release if it kills me. Once that is accomplished, I will move on to other things like the AOSP graphics and other feature requests. So yea, change of plans, taking the van tomorrow instead.

Also, It is my intention to make an incremental update.zip for anyone coming from 2.0. You will not have to wipe or reflash an entire rom to get to 2.1. I will likely start doing this going forward also. So if you are currently on either 2.0 release, and you intend to stick with VaelPak, you will never have to wipe again, at least not for the purposes of updating (with the exception of maybe the cache's).

If there are any bugs that I have not addressed, now is the time to bring them up again. I try to test everything but it's hard to hit every scenario.

Along with the 2.1 release I will also be posting a flashable standalone update.zip for the new HTC kernel, which I can't believe nobody else has made by now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
Sweet! I'm glad I wont have to wipe again.

You never said anything about the Yahoo mail bug. Yahoo cant be used with either of the mail apps. It says wrong username/password but I know I was entering them correctly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Abracastabya:
****in sweet! I'm never switching roms again!
[EVO 4G Android Development] rockdawg:
I'm a newb trying to install this and it just hangs on the VaelPak boot screen for over 20 minutes.

I was on stock OTA 2.2. I had never flashed my EVO before. I followed the the EVO rooting instructions shown here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=765496

After booting into a rooted 2.2, I downloaded VaelPak-v2-BFS8-signed.zip and verified the MD5. I copied it to the root of my sdcard and booted into the HBOOT menu. I chose recovery and wiped both cache and Davlik, then chose flash from zip and selected the file. It seems to copy the files fine, and then I tell it to reboot and it just hangs and the VaelPak boot screen. Can someone help me get this working?

EDIT: I've pulled the battery and retried this numerous times and it always does the same thing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sed8ing:
What is the advantage of the HTC kernel?

I am damn happy with the Kings BFS #9....running smooth for me (note the change in the signature)!
[EVO 4G Android Development] JerzyIroc:
Lol as of version 1.3a you have become my new htc haha. If only you could do an OTA... lmao j/k. As long as I own an Evo, it'll be VaelPak only.. You have my full support man. Speaking of support, the support you give with your rom is truly second to non. I'm sure you have quite a following now, which is much deserved.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
The first boot after flashing a rom takes a long time. Give it a few minutes in that boot screen and if it doesnt boot then post back.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
I've looked into this a little bit and still haven't been able to figure what's up. Thought I had a workaround to use it as IMAP but that didn't work. Still working on this one.

You have to do a full wipe the first time not just cache.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
I just flashed Kings 9 and it is very snappy and seems faster than kings 8. Pretty happy with it so far
[EVO 4G Android Development] JerzyIroc:
Eh I wouldn't worry about it. From what I've read it manages the cpu MUCH better than it ever has as far as a stock htc kernel goes. You practically don't even need SetPCU with the stock kernel I've heard.. I THINK it also undervolts but I'm not 100% sure. I read that somewhere though.. BUT.. still has the fps cap and with that alone I'll be damned if I go back to that lol...
[EVO 4G Android Development] rockdawg:
You mean wipe everything in the wipe menu? data/factory reset, battery stats and all the others?
[EVO 4G Android Development] RFrancis:
Vaelek you have no idea how much I appreciate your work I just got a couple of things that I can't seem to figure out...

1. I was running the official version of froyo and then rooted with the long process before the one step unrevoked process came. What is the difference, and is it worth to unroot and do the new process?

2. I replaced the vanilla browser with the htc sense browser and the calculator as well, but every time I reboot they change back to default. What's going on?

3. Also updating some apps is a pita you have to run adb and uninstall and get the new version from the market why is that?

4. Why do people say that updating the pri is difficult when I just got one of those new radio flashes and did it in less than a minute?

Other than that I think the rom is great and you should keep going with the good work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
Do a data/factory wipe, cache wipe, delvik cache wipe. Then flash the rom zip. The first boot will take a few minutes
[EVO 4G Android Development] rockdawg:
OK. Thanks. I didn't realize I had to do the data/factory wipe. I read that the first boot may take a few minutes, but like I said, I left mine go for over 20 so I figured something was wrong.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
Oh I thought you said 20 seconds not 20 minutes. Yeah 20 min is way to long LOL
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Just a matter of preference mainly. The new HTC stomps the previous HTC, but the current stable Kings BFS is based on the previous HTC. So battery improvement for me anyhow seems pretty equal and it comes down to whether you want overclocking. I also haven't tested if the HTC one has good multitouch, I know BFS does. The main reason I am going to release it is so others can flash it over any rom they like since not all are updated or come with it. I know someone requested this some pages back.

You know, once things settle down a little bit, I do intend to put together some kind of OTA. There's no way I could do it for the full rom, as of last check at over 4000 downloads it comes in at about 760GB of bandwidth in less than 1 month. I should be able to get away with making incremental updates available directly from my server via an updater app. If this is how it happens, it would be available for everyone simultaneously, so unfortunately that would negate the only thing I currently have to offer those who have donated. So I'll have to think about what else I can offer to those people.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sed8ing:
I am not necessarily in the know about unrevoked but had been warned by a few people that simple root was better. Since you already presumably have root access you should be able to use this second step of the process to get a cleaner system. I had things screwed up from something I did wrong and was able to repair it with this tutorial:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=701835

then you should be able to move forward
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
1. Absolutely NOT. If you are rooted and never touched unrevoked, then keep it that way. I would only recommend unrevoked as an absolute last resort.

EDIT: I didn't fully answer you.. the difference is that unrevoked does it's thing directly in the radio firmware and sets the s-on/s-off flag to make it so that you can flash any image you want. People have reported a lot of problems with it, some who have done it have never had 4G again. I don't think there is currently any way to fully undo it (hence the name unrevoked forever) and it does void your warranty, so if you ever have to take your phone in and they check it you're screwed. I basically tell people if they use unrevoked and need warranty work, to physically destroy their phone to the point that all they can do is replace it and won't be able to tell anything you did. But not in a way that would seem intentional or negligent, i'm not sure of the exact terms of the insurance.

2. Yes this is something others have run into. The trick is to delete the app in /system/app after installing it. I haven't quite figured out what is going on or how to stop that from happening. I do plan to include an automated app-switcher that will do this for you soon.

3. Yes this has been a PITA for me since the beginning. The problem has to do with the apk's being re-signed and the signature not matching the one that is in the update. Most of the recent ones have been from the google apps update, wherever I got it from idk anymore, must have re-signed the damn thing which is why all the google apps basically aren't updating. 2.1 *should* have this all fixed up, with the possible exception of a lingering google app I'm not thinking of that hasn't had any updates yet.

4. POS PRI lol... I've tried at least a dozen times to update mine and never been successful. Some think it is based on where you are located but I don't know. I actually just saw this thread this morning http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=768879 that has a method that seems to be working for those that tried the other way 50+ times, so I'm going to give that one a shot.

To make sure we are on the same page, the radio is not the PRI. LOL @ your sig btw.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
Unrevoked is the only way to root 2.2 right now isn't it? I have read you can turn the s-on and do the OTA update and it will be stock again. But lets be honest what warranty work will sprint actually honor? If they see ANY scuffs on the outside of the phone they will most likely say its physical damage and not cover it under warranty.

A friend of mine took his evo to the sprint store because it was acting up. It was raining outside and the battery cover(not inside just outside) got water on it from the rain and they refused to even look at his phone. They said it had water damage because the OUTSIDE of the battery door was wet.

I told that story because they will most likely not cover most phones because who doesn't have a scuff here or there that they can claim is physical damage?
[EVO 4G Android Development] JerzyIroc:
WHOA I was totally kidding about the OTA.. you can seriously do that!! The level of awesomeness that would have is immeasurable lol... I can't speak to others that have donated, but personally it wouldn't matter to me. I donated to thank you for your unbelievable work with this rom and for the amount of help you give. Getting an update first personally doesn't matter to me neither does getting anything extra for donating. I feel the rom itself and the really good help you give on a consistent basis is more than enough in "return" for a donation. Keep up the good work.

@RFrancis.. Dude.. that sig is seriously funny as hell lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] vaelek:
Sorry I'm not talking about the actual warranty, I'm talking about the insurance.

As to unrevoked, I know at least 1 person from this thread who was successful in downgrading to 2.1 without using unrevoked. These are the steps that were taken - http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc...34-how-rooting-htc-evo-froyo-2-2-windows.html - The video apparently mentions unrevoked, but it is not part of the written process. It is possible the entire process is not correct because part 2 of the rooting guide here had to be used to complete the process, but that could have all been caused by a bad download of one of the images.

As to being able to undo the unrevoked, they do not have a good history of being free of bugs and the latest one was pulled because it was messing up some peoples phones. So while they may have some successful results, I have no faith in that method.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
Your talking about insurance where you pay $100 and get a new phone? If it comes to that you can just turn your phone off and tell them you lost it, pay the $100 and get the replacement mailed to you. They do also cover physical and water damage but if you tell them its physical or water damage they want the dead phone back.
