I just posted a thread in the Q&A forum, but I thought I would toss the question in here since it could possibly be a ROM thing.

I just added my work email to my phone using Exchange ActiveSync. The mail and the calendar sync perfectly, but it will not pull my contacts at all. The phone shows that it is synching the contacts, but they just do not show. I tried the same thing on a friend's Droid and it immediately pulled the contacts.

IS anyone else experiencing anything similar?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bxphantom:
Great advise u concur.

My Mynion swyped my Phantom Evo via XDA App.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sugewhite:
That's the only thing I didn't flash was a kernel. I did the caulkin wipe, cache twice, davlik twice, and factory reset twice. Then I flashed myn rsl4 11/25, flashed pri 1.77 and flashed the radio. I then rebooted and got stuck. Do I need to flash a kernel also? If so which one? Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
You don't have airplane mode enabled do you? Also check to make sure the 4G toggle in the notification bar isn't accidentally on. Reboot anyway and see if it fixes itself. If it does not, for good measure, update your profile in the settings menu, and if that fails, it appears you may have to reflash the rom.

I posted this over in Net's kernel thread the other day..but I just got a new radio for xmas in my car. Using the BT Music streaming Myn's sounds like poop (on my phone). In doing research I found people were reporting that Cyanogen 6 had it fixed. I went ahead and NAND'd my Myn's install - flashed Cyanogen and gave it a listen. It did indeed sound better.

I can't imagine that (in all the reading I've done on this in the past day or 2) that I've left any stone unturned.

Has anyone managed to resolve the Bluetooth "crackling" issue reported by many?

for now, I love Myn's so much I'm back on it and I'll use AUX in but...it would sure be sweet if this was taken care of somehow, by someone. :)

I wouldn't switch if I was you. No front facing camera. Google is definitely gonna release a version of gchat with video too in the future. Your better off with the Samsung if you want a keyboard, but honestly there will be way better phones out in 3 to 6 months with dual cores, and possibly honeycomb. Just look at the ces offering today. I think landscape typing on the evo is great too. I wish work didn't hault on the dual keyboard app that lets you use one keyboard for portrait (swype) and another keyboard for landscape (stock gingerbread).

if you want to use the htc kernel #17 that is stock with RLS 4

you can't use the latest radios.

you're OK - obviously! :)

I don't know about bluetooth but I do use aux in on my car stereo from my evo and the music is great. The DSP Manager Myn added several releases ago fixed the crackling for me.

hey doug - Myn answered that in FAQ Post #3 at the bottom
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Please note that when you flash the radio and PRI and hit reboot, your phone will reboot into recovery and display clearing cache or something to that effect followed by .... That is normal. If that is what's happening, just click reboot. You will appear to hang at the white screen. Give it a little time to show the Myn's startup screen. I'm not talking about waiting 10 minutes....lol...Note: someone posted a few posts up with a link recommending you flash the radio stuff in a certain order. I didn't do any of that but it wouldn't hurt to check it out. In regard to the kernel, try one of the Netarchy kernels (not the SBC).

As far as similarities between the devices go, I think the name and capacitive buttons are it. That Evo Shift is basically the Desire Z/G2 so unless Myn gets his hands on one it might be a while before you see his roms on it.

[EVO 4G Android Development] adamantypants:
I had my phone hang for a while after I flashed a radio. The second time I tried to flash it, I noticed that my Amon Ra recovery had stalled on the status and said "formatting cache". So I went in to the wipe section and wiped dalvik and cache again before I booted the phone and it turned out fine. That could be the issue. I don't think my phone liked that I was trying to flash a radio, pri/nv, and kernel without some reboots/wipes.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
didn't we go thru this ?

pull battery.

power on into recovery.

full wipe - flash rls 4 - don't reboot

wipe cache and dalvik cache - flash radio 2.15.00.09.01 - reboot.

sit back and let it do it's thing,

including rebooting the evo when radio flashes

pm me if that doesn't work

btw - have you had issues with your sd card ?

and what hboot do you have ?

thanks

EDIT: what is your other rom ?

[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
i do except when flashing a font only.

seems like they can figure out where they go OK :)

i think it's also good, doesn't hurt, after a few days of no flashing,

to wipe cache and dalvik cache and reboot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jbermi:
i think this is how it works on the new 3.70 OTA.

your 4G antenna is always on. but it is not always scanning. only scan when you tap it.

I meant to try it out today while I was out an d about since $G is spotty in some areas and really good by me, but no good at my house.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
I think you're right. Thank you.I know that after flashing and you click on reboot, it boots back into recovery and mention something in regard cache at the bottom of the screen. Reboot is already highlighted at the top of the screen so all I do is click it and it rebooted normally. Hopefully that is the case in this situation. Thank you for replying. I appreciate it.

and who said CM6 people have no SENSE !!! :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
You don't have to do a factory reset, I would since it is a new rom. I would do a full wipe, after making a nandroid backup to fall back on in case something goes wrong which it shouldn't as well as backup my 3rd party apps and then I would flash RLS5. As for your donation, that should stay between you and Myn ;)

I have a friend with an Evo that is not rooted. His about phone, battery usage shows something crazy like 2000 hours on. He tells me that his task killer kills anything that bogs his phone down. I think he said he's only re-booted his phone a few times. Yes, he's on Froyo. He uses 4g. He wont listen to me of course. I had a BB before the Evo and a battery pull was necessary at least every 2 weeks. I just can't imagine having a smart phone and NOT giving it a nice, fresh clean, restart (power down, pull battery, wait, power back up) every once in a while.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
hold it a second !

RLS 4 will install with a custom kernel

so if what i told you above doesn't work

put a custom kernel onto your sd card

do a full wipe twice

flash RLS 4 and before rebooting -

without wiping cache and dalvik cache -

flash the custom kernel

and then reboot

you should get to RLS 4 no matter what radio combination you have

c'mon man - do it !!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] nonpointtruth:
Okay, so if I flash the beta over RLS4, will it bring Sense back?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
I would flash the radio first and then reboot. Then I would go back into recovery, wipe the cache & dalvik and then flash the PRI and then reboot. Note: on both occasions, your phone should reboot back into recovery after each flash. That is normal when flashing the radio and PRI. Simply click reboot a second time and it will boot to your homescreen.

[EVO 4G Android Development] GrnEydGuy:
Battery Drain Bug?

Installed RLS 4 yesterday. Played around with it and did not notice any issues whatsoever, but was not paying close attention to the battery.

~I flashed LauncherPro, Gingerbread Launcher and installed Home Switcher app.

~Uninstalled LauncherPro & Home Switcher app.

~Fully charged this AM but noticed SIGNIFICANT battery drainage to the tune of approximately .8% per minute.

~I swapped with another EVO stock backup battery and the drainage continued at that rate until the bat was approximately 25% at which time the drainage slowed to about .33%/minute (1% / 3 minutes)

~Tested original battery on backup EVO and drainage was insignificant at approx 10%/hour

I have no clue as to whether TpT is causing this drain or if some conflict is going on between all the launchers I was experimenting with.

I'm stoked to see RLS5 this ROM is top notch!

ROM TwoPointTwo RLS 4

KERNAL TpT RLS4 standard

EVO Radio 2.15.00.11.19

WiMAX 27167_R01

PRI_NV 1.90_003

BATTERY ► htc Stock 1500 mAh

RECOVERY ► RA-supersonic-v2.1.1

ROOT ► unrEVOked 3.3

HBOOT ► 2.10
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Both RLS4 and RLS5 are sense-based roms so yes, but as I aforementioned, if you're flashing a new rom, it is recommended that you do a clean install after a full wipe.

you sure you don't have a custom kernel installed ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] marriedman624:
I believe this was posted earlier (like a billion pages ago) but does anyone have the hexadecimal code for Myn's colors?

It has been mentioned in a number of places that PRI 1.90 can cause battery drain on some devices. I personally have seen this, I rolled my PRI and NV back to 1.77 and the problem has seemed to go away. Drainage isn't as severe. I would check that out it could be your issue. It could be something else. I also am curious how you are using all the latest radios with RLS4 most people report it won't boot that way...

Hmm...thanks for the feedback. I haven't noticed that, but I will be keeping a close eye on it.

I tried spare parts just now and am getting fc. The one from the market is still working. I don't think it's the kernel, but maybe I'll switch the kernel (sbc htc 15) out later just to see.

how is he running RLS 4 with all the latest radios and stock kernel ?

none of us could ?

remember the 1,655 postings: you need custom kernel to run RLS 4 with the latest radios

that's why Myn posted the stock htc #17 kernel at OP

Believe it or not a friend of mine has the same exact setup. He is able to run HTC#17 with the new radio and RLS4. NO IDEA HOW HE GETS IT TO BOOT UP. every time I tried i get stuck at the white HTC EVO screen. The only way to run 3.30 on mine and the new radio was with other kernels.

Here are a couple screen shots:
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:
+1^^ If you ARE indeed somehow running that way, I bet you have a wake lock going, and I'd be surprised if it wasn't laggy. Downgrade at least the radio and PRI.

+111 My phone wouldn't even boot with that setup. Booootloooops.

Please do, sir.

Hmmm, interesting. I was unaware of a modified htc #17
[EVO 4G Android Development] GrnEydGuy:
Yes LAGGY, exactly!

I will do what you suggest and report back to the forum.

This EVO I received is a refurbished one with hardware version 0002, not sure if the refurb somehow "fixed" the kernel issue or not.

I'm on the 1/4 beta and for some reason my 4g seems to be stuck on "turning on" can't stop it from trying to turn on and it never turns on, so my wimax seems to be perpetually on.

Unfortunately, I was one of the ones that jumped the gun a little too early on the new radio. Thats what backups are for ;)

Should I attempt to roll back one at a time to trouble shoot?

Or should I go ahead and just do all of them: Radio/Wimax/PRI/NV?

I'm not clear as to which ones I should be rolling back, just PRI and NV?

Thanks for your help, this is the greatest EVO forum online.

That is one of the most annoying bugs in Android. I remember reading somewhere that the issue was correlated to EMAIL to SMS . I never had a chance to confirm this or test it myself but apparently the issue is only reproducible if you have an email to sms in your message threads(in my case I did). Not all emails cause this issue, there something specific to the way I guess the email was originated that causes corruption with the database. If I find the article I will post it.

Edit:

[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:
Yea dude, definitely try that, as others have suggested too. Use pri 1.77_003, radio 2.15.00.09.01. With that setup, you SHOULD be able to run htc #17 kernel, which in my experience was a great kernel. I just downgraded my radio and pri to what I just mentioned, on the rls5 beta, JUST so I could run that kernel. Be sure to wipe cache and davlik cache x2 or x 3. And what ROM were you coming from before Myn's? Did you wipe data before you initially flashed Myn's? If you were coming from a different ROM, and if you didn't wipe data, I would strongly suggest a complete wipe and clean install of RLS4.

And then when you're done, RLS5 will be out in a day or so(according to Myn, said hopefully by end of this week), and you can take a couple minutes and flash back to all the most recent radios if you'd like, and flash RLS5. Get at it!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Cubfan99:
Weird. I am on the latest beta and trying to turn on 4g from the wireless settings. It goes "turning on" then for a split second to "scanning" and shuts off. I am on the Vegas strip so it should be strong. No not in airplane mode or anything like that. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] GrnEydGuy:
Excellent advice my friend! Thank you.

I hopped from MikFroyo 4.2 and yes I did a full and complete wipe before installation.

I'll let ya know how it's working out as soon as I finish flashing the radio and PRI.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
You can do it one by one. I know what I wanted so I did them at once (be aware if you flash one, say PRI, it will ask you to reboot, will install the version you chose, but will bring you back to recovery and you can do the next one etc). I find the best battery life (for me) on 09.01 radio/pri and nv 1.77. I have yet to be in an area with wimax for long enough to even test out what version to use so I can't speak to that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:
That is strange indeed. I live in Vegas. I'm currently in Henderson, and get 4bars, as I do most of the time. I don't get as good a service when I'm by the strip, I think all the hotels/casinos eff with the signal, but I can usually still connect over there. Was it working before you came into town? Perhaps try updating your profile and prl, if you haven't tried already. Couldn't hurt to try. I would reboot after updating those, and see if that helps at all. I too am on the latest 1/4 nightly beta, btw. Again, it could be the location you're in though....

Check your 4G MAC ID under Settings -> Hardware Info (only appears when 4G is on, but does not have to be connected)

Check your WiMAX firmware rev under ##DEBUG# -> WiMAX -> Firmware. It should be the newest one (starts with 27)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Cubfan99:
I updated radio and pri with the link provided in the bryan email. This is the first 4g I have tried lately... since on the beta anyway.
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeyldev:
My advice is turn off 4g through the menu, not the widget and reboot. Repeat if necessary. Also, do not use the 4g widget in the notification menu or it will always do this. This is a known HTC issue across all custom and stock roms.

Feel free to join this thread and add your issues. Maybe HTC will listen if enough people report it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] superhiro415:
I tried that and I can't seem to turn it off through the menu either. It just says "turning on" but it's greyed out. Clicking it doesn't do anything. I tried reflashing the wimax radio, updating profile and prl and wiping dalvik and cache but my 4g still seems to be stuck at "turning on"

#2) Will fully charge battery and record usage... I was going to do this manually but if there is an app out there that logs the battery stats could you send me a link?

I'm getting about as bad battery life as you can get here. I have tried different kernels also and nothing has changed. From the first page I have tried Ziggy471 Warm TwoPointTwo RLS4 Kernel most recently and I get random reboots and my phone will freeze as well. The first one I tried was netarchy-toastmod-4.2.1-cfs-bfq-havs-more-smartass-universal-signed and I get truly aweful battery life. 6 hours from 100 to dead with moderate use. I tried a couple of Netarchy's other kernels with none flashing due to an error...Not sure what the error was right now due to bad memory. I fear I will have to leave this rom. At least till Rls5 is out.

Any ideas out there on what I can do to better my battery life?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Biofall:
Did you check the link in the OP or in my sig (same thing) referring to battery life?

The ultimate, surefire solution is to wipe everything, use the format.zip, and fresh install. When you restore, don't restore the data of apps. Attached is the zip to flash if you want to try.
