[EVO 4G Android Development] f3rrand:
First off, I want to thank you echo for giving us an option that we didn't have before.

Now...reality. We have to mention the bugs and issues, so here is my list for now and I will keep adding as I go.

1. BATTERY LIFE - (NOT GOOD)

2. DIALER - (NOT TRUE AOSP. DOESN'T SEPARATE CONTACTS BY ALPHABET.CAN'T SCROLL BY ALPHABET.GOES TO SENSE AFTER DIALING)

3. BROWSER - (CAN'T CHANGE USER AGENT. STUCK ON MOBILE PAGES)

4. FACEBOOK - (DOESN'T GIVE ME THE OPTION TO SYNC CONTACTS)

5.FACEBOOK FOR HTC SENSE - (DOESN'T SYNC)

That's all for now, I'll keep the feedback coming, you keep the good work coming.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stangdriverdoug:
Just checkin in. So far this rom runs really good. Echo: is there a update to the new software release in the future? Just curious. Thanks again for the hard work. I love the AOSP feel and having 4g.

From my Evo using 4G
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
Browser issue. Will be fixed on next update which will be today. Probably not a big one though. For some reason the "newer" version downgraded it.

....I was going to answer all the questions off the top of my head but I've been up for 24 hrs and already forgot the question....one sec ill edit this post to answer the rest. Sorry :-P

Ok . F3rrand thank you for posting. The issues you posted (except for battery life) have been discussed and are in the works. The dialer issue is one that will be awhile till I can get it changed. As for the Facebook. I'm hoping that will be fixed next update (but I've said that a couple times).

I really appreciate everyone that posts on this thread. Telling me what issues your having instead of trolling and not making anything better. Thanks you guys are making my job a lot easier :-P

Ps. Also thanks for all the love

Oh and about the battery life what kernel are you using?
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
2 things

First I think I'm going to put the new stock kernel on it if I can get it overclocked. It's supposed to have awesome battery. Opinions?

Second any apps any of you would like to see on todays build?
[EVO 4G Android Development] auau465121:
Hulu app would be cool and i don't know about the stock kernel it is getting great reviews on battery life but people are saying that it is making there phone laggy and sluggish i have not tried it to find out though and is there wanyway possibile u could get sprint zone to work on this rom its not that big but i do use it from time to time and it stops the *2 fc thanls and great work
[EVO 4G Android Development] stangdriverdoug:
Great idea. Don't worry about the overclock.....that's what's the separate kernels are for.

From my Evo using 4G
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
Will do

Yeah kinda what I was thinkin
[EVO 4G Android Development] whatsitsnamenow:
Sorry about that. I didn't even notice it wasn't there because I flashed the Riptide Theme on top of this Rom. It must have done something because I have the option of Mobile View in the settings.

As an added bonus it gave me back the stock HTC mail program. I prefer this HTC mail program as opposed to android email because of the move to folder feature.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DeathBySnuggles:
Riptide's theme has apk's associated with it. I flashed it over virus's senseless rom. I now have htc dialer, htc gallery (didn't want but whatever), htc music, and some other stuff that wasn't present before the theme.

I've been on the hunt for a new senseless rom to try and have been following this thread. I have to say, Echo's attentiveness to the rom and people's requests make it very attractive.

As far as the opinion questions, I would say use the native launcher. I say this because if you are already using launcher pro or ADW and they aren't part of the system, you can restore a backup and have all your settings retrieved instantly. I built my desktops with launcher pro and folderorganizer. I use K9 mail and handcent. With titanium backup and sms backup/restore, I can restore my phone to all it's glory after a new flash in about 1/2 hour.

As far as the kernel, I have no experience with the new one so can't say for sure. But rather than overclocking, I'm more interested in FPS uncap. Kings BFS6 has been great for me thus far.

I understand the new stagefright has better audio streaming but breaks Hulu. I personally would much rather have the better streaming, especially over bluetooth.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Ep3n3wp:
I have to say from personal use... The idle/stand bye time is amazing.. Almost 2 hours too loose 1% (but roughly hour to hour and a half to loose 1% most of the time)

But when under heavy use checking email xda app 4g internet I just lost 10% in 20 minutes... If there's a way to make stock kernel work the same as idle but under heavy use then do it..
[EVO 4G Android Development] whatsitsnamenow:
The power control widget with the functionality of Cyanogenmod ones. Basically you have the option of choosing which function you want to control.:D

Thanks for a great Rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
No copy and paste in AOSP browser...Ill upload a flashable sense browser if you want.
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
Didnt even think about FPS uncap...its standard in all custom roms I dont even think about it haha.

Ill see if I can change some things around. or maybe kingx's kernal just installed goofy on my rom because It should get good battery life.

Battery life is my weak spot. I use my phone so heavly and constatly unplugging restarting flashing that I always have horrible battery life haha

I was actually thinking about that. Well was thinking about trying to put 4g on the stock power control. Ill look (but doubt) to see if Cyans would work on mine or if it would be an easy edit to get it working.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dankARISTO:
Been using .9 since yesterday

music app was 2.1 so i swapped it for 2.2 from CM.

GPS indicator for taskbar would be nice but by no means a must.

Battery life is perfectly fine for me, its actually not bad at all.

Those who say otherwise, ur probably holding it wrong. :P

I have not had any problems with the rom; No FC's etc. [occasional kernel related issues, setcpu remedies those]

simply put. this is my favorite rom. will u be my bf?

looking forward to seeing the new OTA kernel integrated/ not concerned about the OC of it.

p.s. for those who want a 4g toggle and dont have extended controls or switch pro, use rdude's toggle widget to hold u over.

[EVO 4G Android Development] TejasEric:
I'd like the weather widget in there. The one in cm6 because I got used to having it. How do I get the new gmail app in there too?

I like the rom btw.

I do keep getting one fc though. It was com.htc.bgp that keep's fc'ing on me and anytime I try to connect my phone to my computer it reboots on its own.
[EVO 4G Android Development] TejasEric:
I edited my post to add more information. Sorry for the double post.
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
In application settings clear cache and data for calendar, calendar storage, gmail, gmail storage. That should take care of it. You might have to reenter your Gmail account info.

Sorry about not posting an update when I said I would. I had a few things come up and wasnt able to get to it. I am working on the update right now and I WILL upload one tonight.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stangdriverdoug:
Awesome! Looking forward too it!

Anybody get horrible quality when play AVI's?

If so that will be fixed in the update
[EVO 4G Android Development] TejasEric:
No biggie echo we are glad you released this so get to it when you can.
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
Guess what...I lied (again I know) I'm not going to be uploading an update tonight. I'm not happy with the changes I have made and need to work on it a little longer. I have to be at work in 5 hours though so I'm gonna get some sleep. Sorry all
[EVO 4G Android Development] mallman:
lol no worries bub. current version working great for me
[EVO 4G Android Development] clipcarl:
This ROM is awesome. The same AOSP good looks as CM6 but without the horrible battery life of CM6. Not to mention everything works. My battery lasts at least twice as long now. Thank you.
[EVO 4G Android Development] TejasEric:
I guess I can flash manups theme in this right? I love the look of it! This rom with manups theme would be killer.

Thanks for this (kinda) aosp rom. I so prefer the aosp dialer, contacts and messaging app. You are the man echo.

kernel

would this kernel work with your rom? I only ask bc it says asop (kinda)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=773058
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
No, but the version that would work on it is what comes installed. On the update coming tonight (this time I mean it) It has the newest kingx kernel
[EVO 4G Android Development] suavestats718:
Thanks a lot I love your rom by the way :D

Also this new kernel that your updating will it improve battery life?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Ep3n3wp:
Any chance you can put up more screenies after you update? Also what clock batt combo is that in your screenie
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
Yes it should.

Will do. Actually just took a couple before I read your message. The Clock and battery widgets are Battstatt, and Digital Clock By Maize. Both free on the market.
[EVO 4G Android Development] michaelvibe:
Hey I have to say that I am really liking this rom. The look and feel of CM without the little issues. I was having some issues with data and various issues with voicemail and mms. Just enough to shy me away from CM. Might I request that the call screen from Aosp be integrated. I don't know if this is possible or not but it would be a nice addition

Great work
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
AOSP call screen is in the works but nobody has been able to achieve that with a sense based rom. CM is a true AOSP rom. This is only a sense rom with mainly AOSP apps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
Alright making the update.zip file. Flashing to make sure everything goes fine and if it does I will start uploading. So the new build should be up in 30-40 mins. Not a huge update though. so its 0.9.5. I will release 1.0 when I get it updated to the latest OTA and a few little issues fixed.

-Installed a new AOSP browser. User Agent is back.

-Added Hulu

-Reconfigured build.prop old one would make avi's have horrible quality

-Will test after its done flashing but should be able to update launcher and rom manager now.

-Updated kernel to newest kingxKernel

-Modified Power Control Widget to match the vanilla theme.

Things that still need to be fixed:

Updated to recent OTA

Contacts not syncing....don't know why this is happening I've tried to fix it almost all night last night and couldn't figure it out.

AOSP Dialer. That will be awhile.

I'm sure I'm missing a few but I'm tired.

Ill upload new screenshots right now
[EVO 4G Android Development] Ep3n3wp:
I saw in your op that your looking for a boot animation... I found this one (needs a little edit 2.2) hit this guy up he actually has a few sic boot animations..

[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
I actually have someone working on one for me at the moment. I should take that down. Thank you though!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Ep3n3wp:
Oh okay.. the new screenies look nice will have to maybe give it a go in morning... It seems like everything us functional as a daily driver... Any lil quirks? Didn't see an issue/bug in the op...

Also did the cam to gallery get worked out?

Also what's the syncing issue?
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
The most recent screen shots are of the beta i just uploaded that has a good amount of issues. I would just use .9 as a daily. The sync issue is with facebook and your contacts. It will also cause com.htc.bgp or something like that to FC every few minutes. Way to get around it at the moment is to not sure your contacts with facebook.

I gotta get some sleep sorry Ill get back to any other questions you have tomorrow.
[EVO 4G Android Development] VandyCWG:
battery %

What about the battery % inside the battery?

Any plans for this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
Haven't really thought about it. I probably should but its on the bottom of my list of things to do. :( Im about to blow my brains out trying to figure out why I cant get either wireless tethering or hulu to work out of the box.
[EVO 4G Android Development] VandyCWG:
I guess I'm strange, as my Wireless Tether worked out of the box.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dankARISTO:
same. wireless tether has been working for me just fine. odd that it's not working for everyone.

regarding hulu i wouldnt worry about it. if anyone wants it they can get it form the themes n apps section. u dont have to put it in just cuz the other rom makers are.

I did however install it on ur .9 rom and it works fine. gets kinda choppy when ur zoomed in all the way tho. The op even says its not gonna be completely smooth all the time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] werkem:
so is .9 stable or not ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
.9 is stable .9.5 is somewhat stable
[EVO 4G Android Development] TURDxSANDWICH:
I've been using .9 as my daily ROM since it came out on Friday and love it. Very stable, very fast, and no reason to say anything negative on battery life. Sorry to say I won't be testing .9.5 just yet as I see no reason to upgrade at this point.

Echo - since the .9 is working just fine, I wouldn't stress over releasing updates so much until you know you're happy with it. Hopefully I speak for all who have adopted echOS.9 as our ROM of choice when I say you've done plenty for us already. And as for adding apps and features, just remember that the main appeal of this ROM is the AOSP vanilla feel. Let us each add what we want to it on our own time rather than worry about what you can add to it which might appeal to the masses. Id much rather have a bare-bones ROM versus something where I'm already deleting apps as soon as I flash it.

If it hasn't been said enough already, thanks for the great ROM and your attentiveness to our thoughts and concerns.

[EVO 4G Android Development] werkem:
this rom has been going crazy for me

1. i get random google framework or something crashes

2. earlier today my phone was pegged @ 100% cpu usage for no reason and just because unusable i had to battery pull

3. right now it is stuck in an sms loop where it keeps saying unable to send message

I am going to try to upgrade to .9 and hope that fixes w/e issues i may be seeing here
[EVO 4G Android Development] werkem:
the message not sent turned out to be an infinite loop or sending messages and returning me that message. I had to install .9 and put it in airplane mode while downloading to hopefully fix

i just got it again on .9 i dont know if its my phone or sprint. this issue just popped up so i dont know whats going on
[EVO 4G Android Development] suavestats718:
?

just wondering do you have any idea when the next update will be with the new kernel? but besides that like ive said before about your rom its just amazing and i appreciate all the hard work you've put into this rom it clearly shows :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] zimmy6996:
Hey there echoside, how's it going? Just checking to see if you are close to hammering out a final v1.0?
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
hey sorry about the lack of update/replys. Haven't had the time to work on the rom at all. Ill hopefully get an update posted tonight. I have everything setup on the newest OTA except contacts are giving me issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dankARISTO:
im excited for teh update
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
I didnt forget about you guys. Been having some health issues and havent been able to work on the rom all that much. I am very close to being finished with 1.0. Sorry for the wait and it will be up in the next day or two.

PS. Holy crap Im gone for a day or two and there are a billion new evo roms!! I need to step my game up or Ill drop off the map :p
[EVO 4G Android Development] LudoGris:
Hope you are feeling better! any chance of this coming back?

Hey sorry about being AWOL I haven't been able to work on the rom for more then an hour the past couple weeks. Had some health issues and would have much rather been here with you all. BUT I am working on it tonight. Don't know if I will get an update uploaded tonight. I only have one issue holding me back though so maybe. Its going to be off the new ota.

PS. Sorry if you had to move on. Hopefully I will see you back here in the future :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
Ok myn has a rooted version of the newest ota so I'm going to get echOS updated to that. Don't want to be behind again. thanks for the update myn
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
Could I get a couple people to beta my 3.29 release? Its going to have to be flashed in two parts. Don't want to put it out till I know it works on more than just my phone.

If you can please post here or pm. Only need 2-3 so when those spots are taken ill edit this post.

Thank you
[EVO 4G Android Development] dankARISTO:
I would definitely be interested in helping you test your new rom.

Im still using your 0.9 lol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
ok sweet. I kind of stopped working on it because of lack of interest but I also just received a PM from another user about testing the beta :) . Let me make a couple changes and I will PM you the link. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] stangdriverdoug:
Very interested in this too
[EVO 4G Android Development] JuggZaPoppiN:
Is this a full AOSP rom.

I mean does it have the AOSP dialer while you are in a call or when you answer the call?

If so, I would love to try it out. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
Its not full aosp. It does have AOSP dialer when making a call but after you press the call button it goes to the phone.apk which is sense. bbuutttt I cant get the aosp dialer and contacts to work so it might be sense for the beta. Let me know if you still want to give it a try.

So i have stangdriverdoug, dankAristo, snandial, and possibly you. I think that will be enough if you do or dont want to. Thank you and I will be PM'ing the links soon.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stangdriverdoug:
Cool...sound good.
[EVO 4G Android Development] LudoGris:
Looks like I missed the beta chance, but I look forward to coming back to this ROM! Thanks for continuing to develop!

And if you do need another, I would be happy to try it out. PM me if you need me.

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] stangdriverdoug:
Beta testing is going good and this is going to be a extremely solid rom with everything working.
[EVO 4G Android Development] JuggZaPoppiN:
Sounds good. I will give it a go and see how the rom performs.

Hey im running into issues getting aosp contacts to work I think im going to upload a new version just temporarily with sense contacts. Working on it as I type this. :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] whatsitsnamenow:
You should forget about the aosp contacts and dialers. Nobody can seem to get this one correct with the Sense roms. One way or another the HTC dailer/contact will show up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
part of the dialer is in (I think) the phone.apk. On previous versions I have been able to have the AOSP contacts and with that is just the initial dialer. I'm having problems even getting that far. Right now I'm finishing up a few loose ends and then going to start uploading. The update coming out today won't have AOSP contacts but I will get that fixed in future releases.
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
echOS 2.0 up !
[EVO 4G Android Development] stangdriverdoug:
Nice up ECHO...I'll be running this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
You wont see much difference between it and the beta. A little more stable. A couple of little things I added. There will be another update coming out in the next couple days.

***I did move a lot of apps to the SD card you will like that part =)
[EVO 4G Android Development] whatsitsnamenow:
This version is pretty stable and fast. I only have a little problem with fast battery drain. Will have to try a different kernal to see if it helps.

I have heard alot of mixed results with the kernal. I'm going to have a different one on the update.

Does it FC? Just stay at sending? Say its sent but not go through? Is it possible to get a log?

Not at the moment. I personally can't stand the AOSP camera so its not something I usually put on. I can take a look though and maybe run both.

Yes 4g works. Havent tested HDMI because I dont have the cord. As for FM Radio im pretty sure it does but thinking about it I might have removed the app Ill check my phone in a little bit (at work). I was having issues having only the AOSP phone and am working on figuring that out. Sorry for the short and late response. I will get back to you guys more in a little bit once I get some time at work.

Im glad people are enjoying it. It definantly isnt a finished rom but Im hoping to get it finished by monday.

I forgot to mention it is running Baked Snack's Kernal #2
[EVO 4G Android Development] dkotoric:
alright well wiped everything and flashing it now will see how it goes, is there any way to make the cicle percentage battery work with this.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
It has the circle battery unless your talking about a different one. In that case it should work.

I didn't change the base of the rom at all because I didn't want to screw it up. Im just getting rid of most of the sense apps. That's why I put kinda AOSP because its not a true AOSP rom.

I will also get screenshots up today. Here is the only one I have right now but its nice :-)

Fm radio isn't installed and ill be sure to have it on my next update. I stripped the rom down to have the least possibilities of interference while removing sense.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MikeC84:
No change log?
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
Working on that when I was making it I wasn't planning on uploading it so I didn't keep track of what I deleted. So im going to compare the original to this this one.

[EVO 4G Android Development] dkotoric:
is there any way when the phone rings that the AOSP slider shows up instead of sense? I deleted the peoples app using Titanium backup but that caused the phone to be stuck on Force Close so I had to rewipe and flash.
