Very good comparison! I would agree. Comcast is down tonight. I have to use wifi hotspot to connect. My fiance is on the imac and I am on my hackintosh. I've never *had* to tether before. I am glad I don't pay for it. hehe.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
I hear ya, my friend. If you're in an area that has 4G, tether using the wireless tether app. It is very fast and easy to use. Connecting via 3g speed isn't bad, either. Anyway, it's an option to consider.

[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
Knoxville is still without 4g. I don't know when this will happen. I think wireless tether only works with one device, right? It's generally faster for me too on 3g, but my fiance is doing homework on the other computer. I probably should do a little studying too. hehe. Have a lovely night my friend.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
NO! You can tether multiple devices using the wireless tether app. Believe me, I use it often. Anyway, thanks for the replies, Tommie. You, too, have a great night. Take care....;)

[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
Hey, I have a question about doing a nandroid backup and restore. When restoring, should I wipe the cache and dalvik first then backup and when restoring, same question or does it not matter? I tried restoring my Myn's setup and one time I got a boot loop and at another time my restored setup was acting finicky. Both times I had to end up wiping everything and starting from scratch. I wasn't too happy. Luckily, all my apps were backed up. But that kind of defeats the purpose of doing a nandroid. These were the first times I'd done a nandroid with the Myn's ROM. I hadn't had anything like this happen on the previous ROM I was on so I figured I just got lucky and I was in reality not taking the proper steps before a nandroid backup and restore. What is your procedure before and after a backup and/or restore?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
I wipe cache and dalvik before nandroid backup. I wipe again before I restore. Also are you swapping out recoveries? Amon ra and cwm backups are not interchangeable.

Man, I'm surprised to hear that you guys wipe cache and dalvik before backing up and restoring. And then you guys might be surprised that I have never wiped cache and dalvik before backing up or restoring using clockwork and I have been a flashing fool for a few months now. Like if I'm trying out a Rom and I'm like eh, and want to flash back to a backup I have, I just choose restore from Clockwork and hello backedup Rom working like it did before normally. Now I always format all when flashing new roms though. Interesting I says.

[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
You don't have to but it is recommended. Definitely wipe cache & dalvik before backing up unless, of course, you want both included with your backup. As for restoring, I don't want any remnant of whatever it is I am discarding, therefore, I do a complete wipe (everything except the SD card) and then I do a nandroid restore.

I experienced the exact same thing and it drove me crazy until I did the following: Using amonRA v2.3, select the following when doing a nandroid backup:

Boot

System

Data

SD-ext

.android.secure

I haven't had a failed nandroid restore or bootloop because of a failed restore since.

Like lowetax stated, it is not required, however, everyone do not experience a trouble-free flash, backup or restore so to diminish the chances of failure, we Mynionized flashaholics stress the importance of wiping, especially the cache & dalvik. Read through this thread and you will see many instances of where a troublesome issue could have been avoided had the user performed a wipe. Anyway, thank you for your post, my friend. Enjoy your day...;)

That was a nice response Doug. And I agree with you and lowe about wiping. I always format all when flashing new roms and never have when backing up or restoring. But I might make that a habit of doing it, more so on the restoring aspect rather then when backing up. Thank you fellas.

Tech Support Question

Hey guys, I looking for some insight on a question I got from a co-worker that I set up on Myn's way back when RLS5 dropped. She called me to tell me that her phone has suddenly become very "laggy" with the screens moving slowly between transitions and apps slow to open. I have not seen the phone yet, I will tomorrow to see what I can do. A little background; this is one of those people who should have kept their Blackberry. They use their phone specifically for text, music, camera and occasional web browsing. They kept pestering me for solutions (because she hated her Evo) so I rooted for her and put Myn's (my impression of a super ROM) on it. She complained about this and that and I went back and checked and what she was complaining about (lag) simply did not exist and battery life. I believe after the second service call, I put Net's 4.2.2 cfs no havs kernel on it hoping for better battery life. Specifically she says she has thousands of text messages on her phone one thread with 3,000 texts and they won't delete from the stock messaging app plus she wants to keep some threads! She wants no data loss and refuses to sync her contacts to Google. I convinced her to get a bigger SD card because she was pushing the limits with music on the stock 8 gb card. She now has a class 2 32gb card already with 16gb of music! Given all these parameters and aside from returning her to stock and be done with it, what would be your advise IF the lag does exist on keeping what she wants and returning to a normally smooth Myn's experience?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
You're right. She should have kept her Blackberry device. It is my belief that no matter what you do to help her, it will not be enough because she is looking for a reason to ditch her EVO. Of course, I'm basing that on the contents of uour post. Now to address the possible issue(s). Having 3k text messages stored on internal memory in conjunction with listening to music, browsing and whatever else she has open can contribute to the alleged lag. Seriously, if she isn't already, she needs to put those text messages on her SD card. It wouldn't hurt to get an app like History Eraser or Calkulin's Clean zip. Still, aside from getting her the phone she really wants, your attempts, I fear, will be in vain...lol....;)

[EVO 4G Android Development] Rattor:
I just had an instance of extremely laggy phone + bad battery life (average life of 30+ hours, most recent one was less than 20, with lots of lag). I checked CPU usage and Network usage in spare parts, and I was showing some processes running 100%. Turns out that the newest revision of the Adfree host file doesn't play well with the game Words With Friends, and the lag only started when I started trying to play that game. As a check, I'd suggest reverting Adfree, or freezing it via Titanium and see if she sees any difference in her phone life and lagginess.

My ## Code Saga

I noticed that my ## codes stopped working once again on RLS5. I tried replacing the EPST.apk mentioned a few hundred (or maybe thousand) pages back and still no luck. I was also unable to update my data profile. It would just sit there with the "preparing services" box on the screen and never complete. So I said screw it and decided to do a fresh install of RLS5.

I rebooted into recovery (CWM 2.6.0.1) and wiped data, dalvki, cache, battery stats, and flashed Calk's format all twice each. I then flashed RLS5, Net's 4.3.2-cfs-havs-less-nosbc kernel, stock fonts, my rosie, black flip clock, and my TB zip. Upon first boot, I skipped through the startup wizard and immediately checked a ## code and it worked. I rebooted into recovery and made a NAND backup of the clean install.

After the next boot, I restored all of my thrid-party apps plus data and bookmarks with TB. I checked a ## code and it was still working. I then restored my text messages with SMS Backup & Restore, setup my Google, EAS, and Facebook for HTC Sense accounts. I checked a ## code once more and it was still working so I made another NAND backup.

After the third boot, I checked the ## code and it was still working so I thought I was home free. I went ahead and got all of my setting straight and deleted the hosts file from \system\etc and went on my merry way.

This morning I tried a ## code and it didn't work. CRAP! So I first tried replacing the EPST.apk in \system\app with the one mentioned above, did a hot restart, and still no ## codes. So I wiped everything again and restored the second NAND backup I had made--still no ## codes. So I wiped everything again and this time restored the first NAND backup I made with no apps or account setup. Bingo! My ## codes were working again.

I then began restoring my thrid-party apps plus data with TB in groups of four or five, pausing after each group to check ## codes. Got all third-party apps plus data restored and still had ## codes. I made yet another NAND Backup. Rebooted and setup my Google, EAS, and Facebook for HTC Sense accounts and still had ## codes. One more NAND backup. Restored my bookmarks and texts and everything was still working.

So, I moved the hosts file from \system\etc to my SD card, did a hot restart and the had no ## codes. Holy Mary mother of God, I was going to cry. I moved the hosts file back, set the permissions to rw-r--r--, did a hot restart and my ## codes were back again.

Apparently, at least with my phone, ## codes seem to be reliant upon the hosts file. This doesn't make any sense to me, though. Anybody have any ideas on this one? I'm stumped.

Mind posting what your stats have been like?

I, too, have stuck w/ stock (HTC kernel #11) and am quite content w/ the Batt life (so far). I normally can get roughly ~25-30 hrs uptime and ~6-8 hrs of awake time. I've been tempted to try the other kernels mentioned on this thread (specifically, Netachy?) but have been wary of making the move since I belive the batt life I have currently suits my needs (and I really don't want to do another fully swipe if something goes wrong). Everything functions so far to my needs (4G, Launch Pro, etc.. )

I am also looking more towards how long someone's phone can manage awake time as that seems to be more of a definitive factor when testing battery usage and management.

For those willing to post on this thread about their batt usage, can I ask you to provide the following:

Kernal:

Uptime:

Awake Time:

screenshots (nice but not necessary).

Notes: e.g. using setcpu to manage clockspeed

Edit: I should also say, I was mostly using WiFi with the above stats.

I had a similar problem where the black market would not work, but only sometimes. It would start to download and then reboot. For other updates, it worked fine. I wiped everything, started from scratch, and titanium restored my apps a few at a time. I even wrote down what apps I restored, then nandroided, just like you did. After about 6 nandroids, I though I was home free, until yesterday, when the same thing happened. I restored the ugly green market, and every update is working, so far.

I think it may have been a bad area on my sdcard, because, I checked/repaired bad sectors and all of my problems went away. I was having a notice that my sd card was mounted as read only. Everything is working fine now. One final nandroid, then back to black market. Go figure!
