Fred, I am also experiencing slow 4G speeds for last week. It's sad when 4G speed is just a hair faster than 3G. Sprint reports no 4G issues in NE FL but my slow speeds beg to differ with them. My friend is seeing same 4G slow speeds. Still think It's own Sprint end.
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:
I find my speeds to vary greatly, on 3g and 4g. Its never consistent. Right now im getting 7mb down on 4g, but latency is scrap, 347. 3g is always less than 1mb here, usually around 700kbs. 4g gets as low as 1.5 mb down. 3g can drop to 400kbs. Its very inconsistent.

Who do we need to petition to ^UP^ the THANKS count?

Especially when we're in Beta testing, my gratitude FAR EXCEEDS the 5-thanks-per-day limit we have in effect right now...

If I didn't thank you for help you've given me, blame XDA....

:rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Android Development] Product F(RED):
I can understand that on campus, 3G speeds can be a little slow since there are so many people using data at once. 4G however is fine on campus. I get like 11 mbps down. It's just 3G that's erratic everywhere I go. From my house I can hit 1.5 mbps tops, but that's not so usual. Like I said before, I applied for a job at the Sprint store that helped me out. Very nice people. They have to get the green light from upper management to hire me. So if I hear anything new about this or new phones, I'll let you know.

Excellent, Fred!! Hope you get hired so we can have a "mole" on the inside, and you can have some money, sonny!!:D

Hey everyone, I've bee running Myn's ROM RLS5 since day of release and haven't had any issues what so ever. I'm currently downloading Myn's latest nightly release of Warm Z. Besides the normal nand backup, full data wipe, and clearing of cache/dalvik cache, is there anything else specifically I have to do to get a good install of Warm Z? Thanks in advance for the help!:)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Persnlmgr:
Nope...you're right on track.

You might wanna do a Titanium back up, and/or an AR Data Only backup (unclick all the X's except Data...the b/u will then have a D in front of the numbers...), to make restoring your apps easier, though.

:cool:

(And, hey, look at me recommending Amon Ra...)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Zameus:
Awesome! Thanks for the confirmation Persnlmgr! Much appreciated! :) Download complete, time to back up and flash!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tramane:
PM'd Myn for a Warm Z link

Now patiently waiting!! errr uh impatiently. LOL

Ive tried others but as far as my Evo goes, nothing has been better than Myn's rom, and thats coming from MIUI on the N1, but MIUI on the Evo just isnt as polished

Back on rls 5

I've just nandroided back to rls 5 after playing around with Warm Z since 2/10. I decided to give the #17 HTC kernel a try this time on the 2/11 nightly. It worked great with the 2/11 nightly. Only problem was that the warm z rom updated my profile, without my asking for it. Looks like this happened on 2/10, when I flashed that nightly. MY PRL was updated to 60675 or something like that. I use PRL 00001, as I get better Verizon reception at work. I decided to go back to rls 5, even though now a2sd isn't cooked into the rom. I was able to successfully install DTa2sd with no problems. I think the fact that I did a total wipe helped out with some of the problems other users of a2sd were having when they switched from 2/10 to 2/11.

Warm Z is an awesome build, but I think I'm going to wait for a later version. All last night I was getting those SMS messages, even though I blocked them twice (enter 9999 in msg program, then BLOCK XXXX where XXXX is the sms number you are trying to block).

Myn, I noticed you removed the epst file for the 2/12 nightly. Does this mean the PRL pound code will also not run??? This is the only way I can revert back to my PRL.

Can anyone try to enter ##775# on the 2/12 nightly and see if anything comes up on your phone? If you enter your MSL unlock code, you can change your PRL. I can do this on Myns rls 5, but didn't try to do this on the 2/12/ nightly. Let me know what you come up with, thanks.:D

Installed fresh RL5 and radio last night. This is very smooth and the best ROM in my opinion. But my battery life is going down as fast as a F-22 Raptor jet sips fuel. Meaning it is burning through it super fast.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
okay this is my 2nd attempt at installing rls5 and im stuck on the evo splash screen. whats the deal here anyways? i did a full wipe and im on the latest radio/wimax but on the older pri. is this the issue? do i have to flash a stock kernel first? really frustrating here.
[EVO 4G Android Development] zookafg3:
I believe this is something that we been talking about for several weeks.

No, not true...absolutely no donation required. See Post 3 on FAQ.

what radios/pri do you need to be on to install rls5? i cannot get it past the splash screen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
When I flashed rls 5 a month ago, I needed the latest radios to work. Found HERE

The correct order is to wipe everything (data cache dalvik).

Wipe again for its own sake.

Flash rls 5.

Do NOT restart.

Flash the radio update by calkulin.

Restart.

I hope that helps. Have a nice evening.

We're you able to get any of the codes working?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Zorachus:
Today is my first full day on my fresh RL5 install. Charged up phone fully during the night after the install. After just 6 hours of lighter use = web browsing, just two calls, and few texts I am down to 45% battery already :(

And I do have a better than stock battery, bought a 1750mz at Best Buy. But dang I will be out of power soon. Can't imagine using this during the week when on the phone a lot for business, this will be unusable like this :(

This is why I curse this phone at times, is a wicked fast device and awesome technology except the battery drain on the EVO is plain horrible. The iPhone4 at least has that going for it, amazing battery life.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
yes ive downloaded several copies of it. ive also tried several combos of radios and i cannot get it too boot. ive seen others in here have the same issues as me with no resolution. could it be this doesn't play well with a 003 evo? :confused:

i guess it's back to rls4 where ill stay.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Dmastax1x:
i actually downgraded pri back to 1.77 and everything seems to work well. If i read correctly, this may open the rom up to play nicer with more kernels.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
i did this too and still no boot. :mad:
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:
Did you try flashing a custom kernel before you boot? I forget if its the 1.77 pri, or the older radio that the htc 15 kernel isn't compatible with, but its one of the two. Also, try flashing calkulins format all.zip. that helps sometimes. What recovery are you on btw?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Dmastax1x:
i had a similar problem... but with MIUI when i flashed it. i fixed it by starting from scratch and wiping EVERYTHING 3x, then flashing the FORMAT ALL zip from calk, then wiping EVERYTHING AGAIN 3x. This improved my batt life from 8hrs to what i get with myns...about 26~32 depending on usage.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
i thought the #17 kernel had to be on the older radio. what i had was the older pri and the newer radio/wimax combo. im not sure what the issue is. no i haven't tried to flash a custom kernel. im on amon 1.80 recovery. i don't like the newer one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
A couple of genreal troubleshooting questions. Don't take me wrongly, please :)

What recovery are you on?

Have you tried flashing This before flashing the rom?

We'll get you going in no time!
[EVO 4G Android Development] frankpreyes:
On the 2/11 nightly, I was able to get the ##DATA# and the ##PRL# to work, but I always install sprint zone. I have hdwr 002. I've noticed this hardware version has fewer problems with most rom and kernel changes than newer hdwr versions have. I will probably add the epst in the Techknowfile, if I try your latest and later roms without epst.

have you tried using spare parts to check for wakelocks?

light usage for me i cn get 24+ hours, moderate use 16-20 and on a heavy day i can get 12 hours...

i think you may have a run away process or app that is killing your battery.

also have you signed out of google talk and latitude? they are battery drains that you have to log out of when doing fresh installs...i could bet good money, that may be the issue. one of the first things i always have checked after flashin a ROM for the first time...though i haven't flashed a different ROM since RLS3...lol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
Your experience is ver similar to my first day of running rls 5 and warm z. My battery drained super fast, within 3-4 hours of email and general browsing and texting. But since the first day, I have been going to bed with roughly 15-20% battery life left with the same amount of usage as day One. I can't explain it and I don't have any stats to prove my point, but I don't think your drain is uncommon.

Which kernel are you using? I have been on stock htc #15 ever since rls 5 and into warm z beta.

What up y'all. hahaah I have used RLS for a couple of days, with RLS5 now i have been noticing that I cannot send MMS or at times get them. I tried reboots, upgrade PRL and Profile, and I get nothing. When I use CM7 everything works like is should. Has anyone had a similar issues?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
I used amon 1.8 for the longest time. He has a newer release out v2.3 that is working great for most folks I think. I'm still on v2.2.1. Perhaps you can try that? Found here_amon_ra

Calkulin's little script wipes the boot, cache, data, and system partitions. Good question. I wondered that too before I tried it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] frankpreyes:
I always try epst when i'm not on wifi, as I don't have wifi at work (Cheap b@$ta%ds). Sprint zone works for me. There was no problem with your 2/11 nightly for me using ##DATA#, but I forgot to try ##PRL# on the nightly.

Just used the PRL pound code on rls 5 (on 3G) and flashed PRL 00001 back onto my myn flavored phone. At work, my download speed decreases by 50% on the standard PRL. I use my CR-48 wirelessly tethered to my evo all day, since numerous sites (even work related!!!!) are blocked on my work laptop, and my job is to answer questions!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
I haven't seen this issue in a while, but I had it too. Back when I first rooted it was warm 2.2 rls 4. Coming from Sprint Lover's ROM, I had no problems with MMS. But all of a sudden rls 4 would give me problems. Nandroid of Sprint Lover's would fix, and then restore of myn would be broken. I found the cause for my issue. I used a toggle widget (Curvefish) to turn on/off my APN. This was a big issue since it also got rid of all my APN informations. It would not allow me to reset to default. I talked to sprint and they said that if APN was not correctly configured, I could not send MMS. I'm not sure if this statement is completely true, but it kinda makes sense.

What I did to fix was a complete wipe of the phone (data, cache, dalvik), flashed the rom, then flashed the latest radios (then 1.77). This seemed to do the trick.

All of this reminds me, thanks to all those who helped me so long ago to fix my mms problem!

[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
Okay I am using CM7 do a full wipe, caulks all format, maybe I should stick with 1.90 instead of 1.77. My radios should be in contact but I will give that one a go.

PS. I dont think it was me using Ziggy's kernal?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
I wouldn't think that it's the kernel, but I could be completely wrong. I hope the wipe method helps. I know it's not the greatest method to pin point your culprit, but it sure does get your phone up and running again. I would stick with the 1.90 as well. I mentioned 1.77 since it was the latest in December. Good luck!
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
ive tried the newer amon recoveries and did not like them. im sticking to 1.80 for now. as far as the formatter, i do not see why it would do any better than wiping in the recovery? ive never had issues before with any rom except this one. even rls4 installs fine.

thanks for the help, i think ill just stick to rls4 for the time being, seems to run well for me, i just wanted to try the newest rom. not worth wasting my whole day trying this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
1.90 has been known for causing extreme battery drain. that's why people stick to pri 1.77.

my question was what do you need to be running to get this rom to boot up? because ive tried all combos and i get nothing past the splash screen. could this be an issue with the htc 15 kernel?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
HTC #17 (older kernel) - requires 09.01 radio

HTC#15 (newer kernel) - requires 11.01 radio

Anything else is irrelevant, however using 1.77 PRI, no matter what your setup, is strongly encouraged especially if you experience poor battery life.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
yeah well i have the older pri & the new radio and i still cannot get it to boot, no idea what the issue is? i guess i could try the formatter later tonight.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
Yea, I dunno. In my experience it has been a radio/kernel incompatibility. Why not just flash netarchy's newer kernels 4.3.2 or so before booting, then the radio doesn't make a difference. I get better battery life on those than #15 anyway. Forgive me if you have already tried a custom kernel as well (I didn't see it mentioned, but may have missed some of the convo).
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
yeah im gonna try one of the new netarchy kernels right now. ill report back. i really do not want to use the formatter unless i have too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
you mean new radio 11.19

Installed fresh RL5 last night, after being on RL4 last couple months and loving it. I Did a complete system wipe cleaning twice making sure it was installed on 100% clear system.

My battery life is dropping like a meteor in the sky. Took it off a fresh charge tonight w/battery at 100%, not even like 20min later it is down to 85% :eek: And I barely even touched the phone, sent one text, and checked two sports scores.

I have read that I should switch the PRI ? I am currently running PRI 1.90_003, and have read that battery life can be saved a lot by going to NV_1.77_003 found here; http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=715485

But I have never changed PRI's before, and asking if that would even solve my problem ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
Personally, I strongly recommend rolling back to pri 1.77, it is flashed just like any other radio file.

Flash in recovery

Go to reboot now (phone will boot up to an update screen while the radio is being updated) BE PATIENT!! Shouldn't take long for just a PRI, but don't pull the battery!!

It will kick you back into recovery, now just reboot as normal.

I use the older radio 09.01 as well, but am not sure if that helps much with reception/battery or anything else over 11.19. (note: older radio is incompatible with htc #15)

I am assuming you are using HTC #15 kernel that comes with it? I would suggest a custom kernel, netarchy's are superb, as are ziggy's, use HAVs if it runs properly on your phone. In addition I would download JuiceDefender and just run it on default settings, increased my battery about 10-15% at least. I get about 15-16 hrs on a single charge, with about 5 hrs of screen on time, stock battery. It is excellent.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vcalos:

[EVO 4G Android Development] nohbdyshero:
I flashed back to 1.77 a few days ago after having my phone drain down to 40% in under 2 hours 1 day and its been back to normal ever since.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
I think some have reported it booting with what was incompatible on RLS5, but I don't think anything definitive was determined. You could just flash HTC#17 before booting and then you get, IMO, a better kernel and don't have to touch the radio. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Zorachus:
Ok thanks.

So should I install this radio ? EVO_NV_1.77_003. Download to sd/card and flash in Recovery

And then on this page;

http://www.ziggy471.com/

Which file should I download and install ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jbermi:
i'll state this again, after you flash a fresh ROM, sign out of google talk and latitude. they suck your battery dry if you let them run wild. they usually are the main culprits with initial battery drain.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
That is the NV (non-volatile memory) it isn't necessary to do that as well, just the PRI, should be fine. As for the kernel, you want the EVO HAVS CFS version, if it doesn't run stable you can try the non HAVS one or netarchys (it should be fine though). You may want to check out one of the stickies about kernels to give you a better idea. They would explain the nuances better than myself.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Zorachus:
Ok crosses fingers...in the process of installing the "EVO_PRI_1.77_003.zip", and then will install the "ztest-EVO-CFS-HAVS-012111.zip"...

We see if I brick the EVO beast ?

UPDATE: Installed then both separately, everything seems to be working perfectly, actually system feels a tad but smoother for some reason :). Lets see how the night goes, and battery drain ?

odd that all of us could flash and install Myn's RLS 5 and you can't .

now that you have mikfroyo installed.

redownload Myn's RLS 5 again.
