question..

I haven't done anything to my evo since day one of its release except partial root for me to tether...

To install this, I'm planning on doing these steps, please let me know if its correct:

1) run UnRevoked 3.21 oneclick root

2) install this room

another question, if I do this, do I need to worry about the radios/wimax updates or it is contained in this rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] MSmith1:
Id love to give this a try.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxbabiboi228xx:
No worries about the radio but there is no wimax update with this OTA in the only thing this Rom has with it is the system and boot.img which is the kernel no radios no hboot no prl no wimax
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxbabiboi228xx:
Ok give me a few and ill post my framework.res and framework resources up in the themes and apps thread with some screen shots. It also involves a few apps but there all updated like the Gmail,Google search box,Bookmarks widget,Visual voicemail,rosie,mms,which its caulkins 5m fix and last but not least mail app

Where did you download it to? It can't be in your downloads folder on your SD card, or any folder for that matter. Its got to be on the root of your card.

Im stuck on the "loading" screen every time I start up the phone. It takes about 8 minutes before I can even do anything. And every time i try to update something via the marketplace, or download titanium backup to get my settings back, it hangs and nothing happens. Any ideas?

It will give it a little time or wait til you get near wifi, there is a drag right now...mine did this morning and I updated to this last night at 9
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
Try re-wiping and re-flashing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jlboom:
The issue with this becomes that I can't access the market to re-download Titanium backup or ROM Manager. Im essentially stuck.
[EVO 4G Android Development] madiom:
Reinstall your nandroid

Open titanium backup (TB) and create an "update zip of TB using

-backups-menu-more- create update zip

Then reflash the rom and install Thousand from the update zip using recovery.

I just did this upgrade and after a brief bout of stuck in bootloader mode (updated to the engineering bootloader and re-imaged) it works like a charm! Uninstalling the silly Sprint Bloatware apps (again).

Thank you for your efforts!

P.S. Which FPS test app is that??
[EVO 4G Android Development] jlip5617:
ok i have it on the root folder... i did not use the newest unrevoked because it wasn't out yet and i got impatient and used the older one. would this be causing my problems? Do i need to run the newest unrevoked? any help would be awesome...thanks guys

King Kernel

Can we run King's Kernel with this ROM?

Any reason why I shouldn't?

I was running BFS #9 with a stock ROM before loading this one and it was working really nice.

Well I dont have TB on the handheld, it's not in there. That's the issue, I get a Force Close every time I launch the market. :(

No wipe install

So, I just had the rooted stock ROM with clockworks and I flashed this ROM w/o wiping anything. Just went right in and flashed the ROM right over the top of everything (I have a backup... Always have a backup!).

It went smooth as butter. Everything was there and it reinstalled some of the sys apps I had previously wiped (which kept me from flashing the non-rooted stock OTA ROM in another thread), and I can go in and remove them again if I want, but all my apps, all my stuff is still there, no problems. reminds me of pie, sweet, creamy pie...

Just a heads up!

Big shout to the devs.

Why is everyone flashing the custom kernels on top of this, i thought the update change uncapped the fps and add hdmi back into the fone, and helping with battery life too... why are you guys still flashing the custom kernels??? don't bash me plz lol

Duplicate icons

Does anyone else have duplicate icons after loading this?

I wiped, flashed, then restored from titanium, and all of my icons have an identical one hidden under it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] RTC88:
Happened to me before with other roms. I believe it had something to do with you restoring the backup. All you have to do is drag and delete the duplicates and you should be good.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neomiscreant:
THANK YOU! i was in one of those situation where the more i read into it the more i was wanting to give up. haha that was just so damn easy i was like "**** it ill try that". worked like a charm.
[EVO 4G Android Development] eman3316@optonline.net:
This was the most exciting news of this thread! I sold my TP2 when I heard that the EVO was coming to Sprint so I could get top dollar for my TP2 before it would be worth nothing.

Had a Vogue in my drawer that I had to use for a couple of months waiting for the release of the EVO and I must say, you actually made the wait enjoyable. Your Vogue rom was top notch and ran so smooth on that outdated device it was crazy! I actually felt like I was using a device that was sold with Android.

I can only imagine what you will be able to do with Android on an actual Android device. Can't wait for you release! Thanks man!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] commandoscorch:
This update is fantastic! I never knew how much the fps cap was affecting me until I installed this. I was blown away by the smoothness. BTW I installed without wiping so I was able to keep all of my data which was nice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jblank0:
I see that the PRI version on the screen cap is 1.40_003 ... i install the unrooted update and my pri is 1.77_003 is that the correct pri??
[EVO 4G Android Development] Asmodicus:
I have a slightly noobish question. Please bare with me.

I just recently (2 nights ago) rooted for the first time. Everything went off without a hitch except that I accidentally erased my entire contact list in the process. Anyways, I restored my contact list manually by going on Facebook and getting all the numbers from its phonebook. Needless to say, it was a very tedious effort. Today, I installed this update and I'll be damned if I didn't erase the contact list again. I fixed it the same way once more by manually entering in all the contacts one-by-one from Facebook. Okay, so at this point, I'm rooted, have got the update (50 fps ftw!) After tweaking a few things, I decided to go ahead and reboot my phone. After I did that, I go in and check my contact list to make sure it was still intact and I will be damned if it didn't erase all my contacts again! I used Titanium Backup and everything. I don't know how to keep this from happening again. I'm about to restore my contact list for the thids (and hopefully last) time. How can I prevent this from happening again?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Asmodicus:
Should I connect via usb and rename the .zip file I used to update to prevent it from doing this? Just a hypothesis.
[EVO 4G Android Development] myn:
Add the contacts into Gmail contacts. They will persist and automatically sync each and everytime you log in with your google id regardless of the rom you choose.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Asmodicus:
Sorry for my continuing noobishness, but how would I go about doing that? It doesn't give me the option when I select "add contact".
[EVO 4G Android Development] Asmodicus:
Also, I noticed that all the texts messages I had from today were gone. The only texts threads i have are from last night, before I updated.
[EVO 4G Android Development] myn:
http://contacts.google.com and add them there

As for the text message history, do a Titanium backup or nandroid backup. Android doesn't sync this stuff natively (yet).
[EVO 4G Android Development] blkcamarozr28:
Is it neccessary to wipe data/factory reset & wiping cache/dalvik? If I do this I will lose all my presets and apps. Can't I just install this ROM on top of my existing rooted stock rom from unrevoked forever?

Also, it looks like I still need to manually reflash the radio/prl/nv from the other thread. Is this correct?
[EVO 4G Android Development] skunkd:
Just went from stock rooted odex 2.2 to this without wiping data, no problems. just clear the cache/dalvik and make sure you backup first. you won't lose anything this way you keep all your data and apps

yes radios and NV and pri and wimax have to be updated separately but that all in one combo zip worked awesome in calkulin's radio thread

awesome so far very snappy!
[EVO 4G Android Development] guyver2077:

[EVO 4G Android Development] MickeyMcE:
I rooted my phone for the first time a couple of nights ago with unrEVOked 3.21 and continued to run the stock ROM rooted. I have been playing with wireless wifi, drocap 2, titanium back up, & the overclock widget. Then I see that Sprint and htc are updating the Evo and the Hero with ota updates. I am thinking to myself I wont see these updates for awhile unless I am willing to lose my new root and out of nowhere this post magically appears and I am like HELL YEAH!! I put this zip on the root of my sd card last night and just let it sit there. I did a nandroid backup and a Titanium back up....tonight I read all 37 pages of posts and after reading the do's and don'ts I proceeded. I wiped cache and davlik cache and thanks to my long read I chose not to do a full wipe on the data. I flashed for the first time excited and nervous at the same time...it only took a couple of minutes...time for a reboot...done Sprint comes up and I'm feeling good. Then the 4G screen comes up....and stays up for what seems like an eternity of 10 minutes...probably less...I'm thinking it is a new Rom it just takes awhile...right... and them BOOM! htc screen...YES! After a few minutes it loads...ladies & devs I am a flash virgin no more. I couldn't ask for a smoother root. I have read so many horror stories that it really makes you nervous your first time going in but with lots of research through this great forum I can say that I had everything I needed to know. I did also run into the double widget and icon issue on the home screens but thanks to these posts I just deleted the extra icons/widgets with no problems. I also had a notification that my internal memory was low so I reboot the phone to see if that would get rid it. That didn't work so I went through and cleaned up some of my old apps that I don't use much and eventually got that to go away. I just really want to thank the devs for all there hard work getting these updates out at an ultra fast pace and to all the guinea pigs out there who help smooth out the bumps. Keep up the great work and thanks for making my first time SPECIAL. I did do a Quadrant Standard test and out of 3 tests my best score was 1302 running the over clock widget at 883200 as my max setting. I am having a blast with all this stuff! Thanks again and keep it up!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neomiscreant:
it was just suppose to uncap the current 30fps cap if im correct. when i ran fps2d i was able to get 53 fps. not exactly 60 but im not complaining, very noticeable difference.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kevbonice:
i just put the zip on my SD, cleared the cache and the dalvik and then I used clockwork to install the .zip from my SD...everything booted up fine and it seems to be running perfect. Ran fps2d and it averaged at 51...super easy!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] myn:
King's #9 BFS gives me better battery life and benches higher in quadrant than Sprint's new 3.29 kernel.

Give it a try. You may be surprised :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] jklong03:
I did exactly this. Came from unrevoked (that didn't work btw) attempt at root. Used Clockwork recovery, flashed this on top and everything works great! I'd do a Nandroid backup and flash away.

[EVO 4G Android Development] bigant262:
If you want an AOSP browser. I'll write some step on how to get it.

Thanks to Vaelpak for telling me how to do this. Also this is the browser from his rom.

1. Install browser.apk from here. http://www.mediafire.com/?7wkdbtf3gm675mo and put it on the root of your sd card or a folder, wherever you can find it with a file explorerer

2. Use Titanium back up and back up the Internet 2.2 app just in case you have problems. Once its finished backing up, uninstall from titanium.

3. Reboot your phone.

4. Use Astro, or any other file explorer and install the Browser.apk and it should install. If not, reboot your phone again, and if that doesn't help, use root explorer and go to system/app and make sure browser.apk is not there. If it is uninstall and reboot and install browser again. Also, go into manage apps and browser, and wipe data for the browser.. Then everything should be good to go.

Hopefully this works for everyone that wants AOSP browser.

So I felt a bit wrong for not thanking you for this. It was exactly what I needed and the fact you got it out so quickly was AMAZING. I was feeling a bit irritated that I had just rooted my phone and then a new OTA comes out and I wasn't going to get to enjoy it, but you proved me wrong. Thanks especially for the DeOdexed version since the first thing I did when I got rooted was start deleting crap-ware (ie friendstream, facebook for htc, sprintware, etc) and my phone wouldn't take the original/standard OTA due to the checks prior to updating. I'm looking forward to your mod and the pictures look stellar. Can't wait for more.

Go to the link above and watch the video. I'm pretty sure the unrEVOked 3.21 method roots your EVO on 2.2 regardless of anything else. You will have the same everything, but will also have root. It doesn't take anything away from your phone. Just roots it.

Does that help
[EVO 4G Android Development] ICEReaction:
So I assume you are looking to update to the new software version then. Just download the .zip and move that to your sdcard and also get the combo radio/wimax/NV/PRI here by Calkulin and move that to the sdcard as well. Boot into your recovery, prob just do a wipe of your cache and davilk cache, flash the rom, reboot to make sure your phone is able to boot up, and then go back into recovery and flash the radio/wimax/NV/PRI.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jtripp81:
Umm, wow, that was a lot to take in....

I believe I have the AMON build of a rom. Does that work for that build?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ICEReaction:
Amon_RA recovery? Yes, that's fine. Power off your phone and then hit VOL DOWN + POWER when you power back on. You will be in bootloader and then select recovery. You can flash the new ROM and radio from there. Once in recovery, go to wipe, wipe cache/davlik, then go to flash zip from sdcard, and pick the files you want to flash.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jtripp81:
Great thanks!

after I do that with the Rom what about the two other files I downloaded for this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ICEReaction:
The new radio update? If you downloaded the combo zip from Calkulin, its just one zip that will update everything. You can flash that after you flash the ROM. Personally, I would flash the ROM, reboot, then go back to recovery and then flash the radio.
