[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
I don't think anyone has answered this yet, if I missed, I apologize.

4g/wimax scanning is a Srint/htc known issue. Yes - the only way to stop the wimax scan process is to reboot your phone (after you turn it off via settings of course).

I use 4g all day, every week day. It takes me less than 2 minutes take care of it - I turn it off, do a hot restart, and it's done. I checked alogcat for a while, but it always works so I don't check it anymore. I have forgotten to turn 4g off when I've left work, and I didn't really notice a huge battery drain however I then go straight to wifi at home. If I forgot and then went around town without wifi...I'd imagine I'd notice something and that would remind me to reboot.

I would guess that the majority of people with Evos don't even know about this problem. Until enough of us complain, I doubt it gets resolved. I don't have the link, but there is a site where you can register and official "fix this damnit!!" remark. I think the issues is coded as "medium" importance.

Until Sprint or htc (not sure which one it is) fixes this, rebooting is the only solution (as far as I know).

This was similar to the issue I had, and it was a permissions setting within Android. The fix that worked for me to get Filezilla and SwiFTP was going into the setting on SwiFTP, going down to the "Stay within folder" option and changing it to /mnt/sdcard by adding /mnt to the option that was already there. It corrected my issue, give it a whirl.

[EVO 4G Android Development] TorxT3D:
Well i figured out the NOVA problem.

the "Evo version 3.1.6" they give you off the gameloft website is an old version thats incompatible with, im assuming, froyo or any latest roms including myns.

So i installed 3.3.9 and it works starts up and runs fine.

The package installer is 3.3.9 but if you got into the game's about screen its listed as 3.0.6.. dunno.

There are newer versions of nova out, but this is the one i just tried and it works...
[EVO 4G Android Development] sleekgreek:

Thanks Myn for this great rom but I have a major problem. For some reason my browser starting slowing down by taking over a minute to load web pages.

[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
If you made a nandroid backup prior to flashing RLS5, do a nandroid restore and verify that they still work. If they do, reboot into recovery, wipe the following at least twice each:

Data/factory reset

Cache

Dalvik cache

Battery stats

Note: I am assuming you've updated your radios with the previous install. If not, download the radios from the link at the beginning of this thread and place them on the root of your SD card. After wiping, flash RLS5. If you have not updated your radios, flash the all in one radio file you downloaded BEFORE rebooting. If you've already updated your radios, go ahead and reboot. Check to see if the home row lights cone on. They should. Nothing in the rom itself should prevent them from illuminating.

Download adfree from the market and install it. Afterwards, initiate the app and either hit "revert" or update the host file with the app's default settings. You may or may not have to reboot. That should solve the problem.

Have you tried the app (is it an App? hopefully others can help) that will let you draw from Verizon towers? I know I've read that several use that because their Sprint coverage is not good.

Roam Control......I think that is it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] zosopage:
Thanks for that.. .I had been looking for an answer too... I try to come here at least once a day, but I don't have time to scroll through 100 plus pages... also it seems in a thread this big, when you search, you are getting stuff that doesn't matter... sorta like the "bing" commercials on TV...

Thanks for the tip though!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Roam Control is the app and if you put it on "Roam Only", you will be connected to Verizon's towers. I have poor sprint voice covering at my house and I only use Roam Control for "voice use" while at home. Sprint does monitor data roaming usage so be careful if that is what you will be using it for.

Has anyone noticed the text notification NOT going off at full volume while you're on the phone? I just realized this today. I'm guessing this is a feature of RLS5, but don't remeber it mentioned in the changelog. In any event, I LOVE it!

I installed an old version of Swype (much more accurate) and I keep getting fc's while doing other things on my phone. Is this a Swype issue or perhaps the app that allows you to have a keyboard for portrait and landscape?

That might work but by the time I learned how to use it, I could have manually entered all the old notes into a adroid note app and have a lot of time to spare. I was hoping someone had the same problem and found an android note app that would read pwi files.

Forgive me if this is a stupid answer, but typically the backlights on the capacitive buttons are controlled automatically by the sensor. Are you in a brightly lit area? They wouldn't come on, try a dark room or just cover the sensor with your hand to verify they aren't working.

That may not be the issue, but just wanted to cover everything.

[EVO 4G Android Development] mikevillarroel:
The easiest way for you to understand is going to the market and look for Multitouch tester (it's free) install it and run it to se haw many sensors your screen has..........
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
Just saw this myself. I am sure you can flash it over the top of the rom, it will overwrite the old a2sd, don't quote me on that, but nandroid and try it out!! Of course report back...:)

EDIT: Also wanted to point out that it IS a beta, just be aware of that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Stajdanley:
It is in reference to the number of multi-touch sensors your display has. Some Evos have 3 multi-touch sensors and others have 5 multi-touch sensors. I have and Epson display with only three, which means I can have three points of contact on the screen at one time, whereas a 5 point can have five active points of contact on the screen at one time. You can use an app called Dotty to see how many you have. Load the app and see how many fingers it recognizes on the screen... it will be three or five.

I don't know man, i rather wait for myn to include it in the rom so i can be sure is ok...... lol

I was using netarchy's 4.3.1 nosbc.havs kernal overclocked to 1152 max 245 min, when I got the reboot. Dont know if that was the issue.

Crap...I didn't even notice that these were betas...

I'm on the 4.3.2 SBC CFS MOR HAVS since this morning. It is smaller, and includes the 256 SD card tweak!

I'll let y'all know tonight how it's running.

:cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] MadDogMaddux:
Well, Crap in a Hat!!!

My phone just decided it's not reading the SD Card.

I checked the SD card and it reads fine on my computer, I ran the fix SD card method for Fastboot with no luck.

When I plug USB into it, I get 3 options now, not four: Charge Only, HTC Sync, and USB Tether. Of those 3, HTC Sync doesn't connect, but DOES tell the computer that there's a disk drive there - pity it says that there's no disk in it.

When I try Recovery, I can't recover or flash anything due to it not finding an SD Card.

I'm flummoxed - hoping that it's not a burnt out SD Card reader, because I do NOT want a Refurbed Evo from Sprint. :(

Which reminds me - how the heck do I RUU if I have no SD card access?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Stajdanley:
Did you wipe cache/dalvik? Are you over-clocking with Set-CPU. Make sure you wipe, and if you are over-clocking, try to kick it down a a bit. If it continues to do it, you can just restore the backup that you made prior to flashing the kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
i've never had a random reboot (bought phone in June)

ziggy's 011511 worked great for me

but wanted to give calk's modded htc #15 a try
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
No problem. I am just stating that installing it is just updating the scripts, flashing it is essentially the same as what Myn would do. He would just copy the necessary a2sd files into place in the ROM zip. Not likely to happen with a beta of a2sd though, would probably wait til a final.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sebast1an09:
I wiped both the cache and dalvik and I was using setCPU to overclock/underclock.

Now it freezes as soon as it reboots so I can't open up setCPU to tone it down a bit. And I didnt do a backup this time since I was just flashing a kernel.

Should I wipe everything and flash Myn's warm 2.2 ROM again. Will that take me back to the kernel that it comes with?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
You have a corrupted file on your SD card. See if you can find it using your computer.

Do you get the notification that says "SD is read only?"
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
i'd back up entire sd card to pc, then put back in and format it using the evo's

sd & phone storage - format sd card

and then regroup

EDIT: beforehand connect to pc and my computer right click on sd card

then tools - error-checking - check now

[EVO 4G Android Development] Stajdanley:
Someone correct me if I am wrong, but you should be able to just wipe cache/dalvik and NOT wipe data. Reflash RLS5 and restore the stock kernel without losing your data. If the kernel is your problem, that will definitely get you back to HTC #15.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sebast1an09:

[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
Plain black? Is your phone off?

And why would you reflash it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Stajdanley:
I am on Nets 4.3.1 cfs havs nosbc and loving it-. It took a couple of days for it to settle in, but my phone has never run smoother. It is possible you were over-clocking or under-clocking too much for your phone--each device can vary in what it can handle. Do you recall what you had those values set at in setcpu?

A couple of the other popular kernels at the moment are Calukin's modded HTC15 and Ziggy471's latest
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
A note on using setcpu: don't ever set it on boot to overclock unless you have run it at that for some time and tested it as working, that can cause it to lock up on boots. Also I used to be an avid setcpu user, mainly to underclock because I was kind of locked into stock kernels with 0004 hardware, but since using custom kernels I generally let them do the work. I would suggest trying out the custom kernels (ziggy, nets, etc etc) and using their defaults, just let the kernel do the work to see how it goes.

After a few days if you'd like to set certain profiles and such try setcpu if you feel the need. I use it for changing governors for example. In addition make sure you uninstall it fully before changing your kernel it can cause issues there too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Product F(RED):
Update on mah fone situation. I'm lazy so I'm just gonna paste what I sent Consumerist.com:

I've actually gotten 2 conflicting responses. The store manager told one of the employees that he would offer me a new phone if Sprint would reimburse him. That call was on speaker phone and I was there to hear it myself. The Sprint rep from Dan Hesse's office that called me back said the only way to go is another refurbished phone. She also said that the representative who offered me a new phone over Chat was misinformed. While she was nice, it seems that the employees in the store are the only ones who understand my situation and side with me. The rep went further to clarify that "refurbished" doesn't mean that a phone is opened up, fixed with new parts and then sent back out. At least not necessarily. She said that if someone decides to buy a new phone, and they send it back because they don't like it, it's put back on the shelf [without being looked at].

To me, that's an absence of quality control. Shouldn't the phone be looked at anyways? Maybe the person returned it because of the problems. I don't find this fair. One of the reasons this replacement has so many defects is because it's a launch-day hardware version. Going into Settings -> Hardware Information on the phone tells me this. I don't want to take any chances with another refurbished phone and I don't want to purchase total equipment protection and I don't want to send the phone straight to HTC. First of all, her confirmation that "refurbished" isn't really refurbished doesn't make me feel any better about the situation. Secondly, I don't want Total Equipment Protection because it's $84 a year and I'm not a klutz. Thirdly, if I send the phone to HTC, I have to ship the phone myself, with a chance it may not get there, and then wait 6 weeks for them just to assess what's wrong with it. Believe me, I've called them up myself and that's what they said. And last but not least, this is starting to get personal because my parents and I are starting to get unnerved because it's never-ending. I paid my $35 to get the phone replaced with a like-new one. If they can't give me one, I would like a new one. What do you think?

Update #2: The woman called me back and told me that the store actually wasn't able to order the phone because it's on backorder. But the employee that I'm familiar with has been trying to order one for the past few days. I'm not upset about this. This just further proves my point. To make matters worse, the corporate store closest to my house is not a repair center, and therefore cannot take a look at my phone and order me a new one. The closest ones are in Staten Island and on Broadway in Manhattan. I've escalated the issue, but I stressed to her that I don't have time to go back and forth, as I'm a student with a full schedule. Sending me a new phone isn't going to bankrupt them. This is unbelievable.
