[EVO 4G Android Development] sumo911:
Myn, I love and appreciate your work. But I am extremely frustrated by the poor web browsing experience of RLS5...so much so that it takes almost everything on me not to throw this ***** at a wall and watch it shatter into a million pieces! I've already installed adfree from market, and even flashed the 'slow browser fix' you posted in the OP, but, with all due respect, I still have the most ****ty, browsing experience I've ever had on the Evo (and I've had mines since launch day) regardless of whether I'm on WiFi, 3G or 4G! If the browser itself doesn't freeze, the page will just sit there half way through the loading process...even after a fresh flash with nothing else installed other than adfree and/or the browser fix you posted.

I gave warm Z a try and I can say that the browsing experience on it is definitely the Myn caliber experience we've all come to know and love: smooth as butter. But voluntarily giving up 4G is not an option for me. With that being said, any ETA on a TwoPointTwo update? I'm dyin over here...
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
See the post directly above yours....;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] sumo911:
Thanks, doug...but maybe u wanna try re-reading my post? I said I already tried that and the web browsing experience is still..umm...subpar, to say the least.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
You either didn't follow the instructions to properly get the AdFree fix to work, or there is something else interfering with your setup. Make sure you are rebooting when you click revert or update, whichever route you choose to go.

The way I did it, to ensure everything went smoothly was as follows. Hit revert, reboot to clear the dns, make sure everything works. Now you are back to a normal stock type setup where all ads will show. Leave it, or if you still want no ads, go into the app click Update Hosts, reboot again to clear out the dns and you should be running without ads.

I can promise you it isn't the fault of the ROM. I realize it is frustrating, but you should take a deep breath first. If none of those are working, then I am honestly lost, it could be a Sprint issue, but I assume you have tried another rom or even another phone? Really sorry you can't get this figured out, but as AdFree fixed this issue for most I am not sure what else to suggest :(.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sumo911:
You either don't read very well or yore too quick to assume. Either way...Wow. Whatever happened to reading and thinking critically? Thanks, anyway...I guess....for the redundancy. I've already said, three times now, that the same thing happens even after a fresh install. How then could it be my setup that's causing the problem...if I haven't even set anything up yet?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
I understand but a fresh setup still has the OLD hosts which is causing the problems? Whatever happened to having some courtesy to someone who is trying to help you out with your situation?

You didn't answer any of my questions which are kind of essential to solving your problem....
[EVO 4G Android Development] sumo911:
Ageesm, I apologize for my crude tone. I am just pissed right now, mainly at myself, for having put up with this crap for so long.

I said in my original post that even after a fresh flash with nothing else installed other than the so called 'browser fix', and still have the same experience. Thanks anyway for your help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Sorry for the delayed reply. I was eating dinner. Anyway, ageesm has already posted what my reply would have been. To be sure, however, what do you consider "subpar"? Are you running RLS5 as it was installed and are you also having syncing issues? Also, have you gone into the settings menu & update your profile?

I was trying to skip my birthday month. My CPA, Dewey Cheatum, subscribes to the theory that if they don't find it, it is a legitimate deduction.
[EVO 4G Android Development] elesjuan:
I too have followed the directions to an absolute "T" in the update of the baseband, Wimax, TwoPointTwo RLS5 install, and the adfree installation, including reboots.

Did not make a single bit of difference.

My last 4g speed test 90 seconds ago: 1168kbps down, 170kbps up. 3g speed test 120kbps down, 19kbps up. :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:

[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
No need to apologize, I did the exact same thing right back to you, which was uncalled for as well, and I owe you an apology for that. I understand it is frustrating, we have all been there.

I re-read your post again and I feel the same as the first time I read it. I still would have suggested the same thing. The first thing I do when troubleshooting with someone is find out what steps they took. Majority of the time something was missed and it is the cause. Saying you did the AdFree fix is fine and you may have done it right and you may have a separate issue, but confirming the steps goes a long way usually. I haven't messed with the flashable zip fix, but it was posted by one the ROM devs (incubus) so I trust him, but I do not know what that fix entails.

What you described is exactly what others described that the AdFree fix usually clears up. That is why I was trying to exhaust that option before thinking it was something completely different :(.

EDIT: The first way of getting the ad-removal system to work was deleting the hosts manually, I cannot remember where they are located though, someone help me out? I don't know if that would do anything different.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sumo911:
How long have u been having this issue? My browser speed sucks donkey ****, but 3G/4G SPEEDS, according to ookla, is my usual 4 or so MB. I only have issuea in regard to speed when it comes to the built in browser in RLS5. Perhaps their is a problem with one of the towers in your area? Check with Sprint to make sure? Then again...I think I recall u saying u were able to nandroid and get back to your usual speeds...which is weird.

RLS5, for me, has been a double edged sword. I love the interface and Myn's little touches throughout the ROM, but the unbearable browser speed is just ****in me all up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sumo911:
Ageesm, thank you for your kindness and your patience. But I am sooo over RLS5 right now. Gonna try something else for now until we get an update. Thanks again. :)

white/black menus

Hello,

on RLS5, what package should i flash if i want the white menus back?

The black one are sometimes showing black fonts (so i can't even read them)

Any idea?

Thank you!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
Found it. Has anyone with the internet speed issues deleted the host file manually?

It is located in /system/etc/ file name is just 'hosts' Delete it or change it to 'hosts.bak' and reboot. It was the only other method I have seen related to this issue.

Also are you guys just using the stock browser or does this happen with any downloadable browsers? I seem to remember various ones acting differently.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Xman09:
I used the latest version of Skyfire and the stock browser with RLS5 and I had no speed issues. Downloads are quick no latency what's so ever. I'm currently running Z and the only problem bugging me out is A2sd ain't working for me..grrr
[EVO 4G Android Development] sumo911:
Thanks, Ageesm. I renamed the file like you suggested, rebooted, and pages seem to load much better/faster now. Weird thing is, even though most of a webpage's content is already rendered, the status bar at the top just stops half way and sits there for a few minutes at a time. And sometimes I am unable to even scroll around the page unless I am zoomed in. I assume this is related to the status bar stoping half way through. This, I can live with though...as long as the slowness has gone away.

Thanks for your help, and for making me feel guilty about my *****yness earlier. LOL. All is well now and I am once again a contented Mynion. Thank you! :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
Really? It worked? That is excellent. I said it to hopefully help someone, but to be honest it seemed like this issue was above my paygrade. I randomly remembered the manual way did some searching and figured I'd throw it out there. Very happy to see your speeds are improving :). Unfortunately not sure I have anything for you on the bar stopping :( at least it doesn't seem to be a deal breaker.

No need to feel guilty (I do too) hopefully all is forgiven on both sides. If you ever feel the need to vent or have other issues, my PM box is open :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Persnlmgr:
There are no dumb questions...only dumb askers...;)

It's not so much the regular stuff, like gmail, contacts, calls, or even a standard website. But, for instance, I use a service called Breakdowns to submit my clients on upcoming film/tv/stage projects.

The pages all contain acrobat-links (written as pdfs) so I click on a project title on the first page list, it takes me to another page with story synopsis and available roles with character descriptions, I click on a role that may be right for one of my clients and it takes me to another page where I choose a pic and video and write a note to the casting office, it takes me ....well, you get the idea.

The pages are all graphics and code intensive. On 4G the page transitions are almost instant, on 3G they load just fine, but not nearly as fast.

I think 4G really excels at pages with heavy graphics.

calk's format all ...

nor data, cache and dalvik cache using amon_ra v2.3 - haus mod

didn't get rid of your RLS 5 apps,

but amon_ra's v2.3 (without haus mod) did ?

that just doesn't make sense ???
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
calks doesn't touch sd-ext to my knowledge, I could be wrong though. Haus mod doesn't seem to mount it properly, I get that same message posted before. If there is no ext Amon_RA skips over it, but it doesn't give that message. Mounts/wipes fine with the regular 2.3 version.

Example: I wiped everything as clean as possible (getting those messages on sd-ext and dalvik cache sd-ext) followed by calk's. Flashed CM7. It has no a2sd built in nor could I ever get DT working, but it does mount it to /sd-ext? (I believe in sense it is mounted to /system/sd) in root explorer so I go in there and all of my apps were there as well as a full slate in dalvik cache :(.

i don't follow all that, but bottom line,

you are saying xHausx modded amon_ra v2.3 doesn't do what amon_ra v2.3 does ?

he just changed the kernel in it
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
I know, that is why it makes no sense because the only difference is the kernel. I can't explain it and it follows no logic, but all I can go by is what I can see it doing. And for some reason it doesn't appear to play right with ext partitions...:(

Yea, that guy is a troll. Z is fine. I had no problems other than those of not knowing how to do something correctly. Not sold on it completely, but it is nice and will only get better. I got me a nice fresh nan of rls5 on my card just in case.

So, I think I'm going to go back to RLS 4 sometime tonight. Will I need to downgrade my radios?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
Theoretically, not if you use netarchy's kernels. But if you want to use the stock HTC#17 kernel it comes with you would ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
I am almost done getting RLS4 how I want it. I forgot how fast this rom is. I was indeed mistaken when I initially thought RLS3 was faster. As for downgrading your radios, I didn't have to because I had downgraded from 2.15.00.11.19 to 2.15.00.09.01 as well as to PRI 177.003 while I still had RLS5 installed. So to be on the safe side, downgrade to radio 2.15.00.09.01 and PRI 177.003.
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
sorry for not being up to date, but why are people liking rls4? is it worth downgrading your radio(s)? my biggest interest is 4g connectivity/speed and then 3g speed, battery life would be nice too. wimax in cm7 sucks right now (poor connectivity in a fringe area where i am) so I'm on stock rooted sense until i find something better. didn't really care for rls5 personally but am willing to try 4 if there is reason too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
man, are we spoiled !

RLS 4 with htc #17 was a great combo

i should look about 10,000 posts (!) ago,

to see what i posted for my setup ...

but ziggy 12/05 rings a bell and RLS 4 was around thanksgiving i do believe

so ... a sweet RLS 5 that works, a nan of Warm Z, and RLS 4

throw in Calks and Konis, and life is good !
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
How do you set the cache to 512? Do you mean the swap size? Sorry, I'm confused. Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
is there any reason to believe the older radio or kernel or rom would be better for connectivity or speed? a little hesitant to downgrade my radio. i would assume htc would only want to bring improvements in these areas with new radios and kernels.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Ageesm, it was not my intent to abandon you earlier in dealing with the people who were complaining of subpar browsing issues. I was trying to do too many things at one time and ended up having to prioritize.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Product F(RED):
What we need is an SBC HTC #17. I have SBC HTC #15, but 15 sucks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
No problem, I would expect anything I am involved in to be of a very low priority :D. Haha, jokes I know that isn't what you meant...anyway I figured you got scared away by the turn for the worst the discussions took, trust I use the term discussion lightly, especially from my end. :o

It is well documented that pri 1.90 causes battery drain for some users. I have found the best setup on RLS5 to be 09.01 radio, 1.77 pri. There isn't really anything I feel I am missing by not being on the latest. I use a netarchy kernel so I can use any radio, but there have been some issues with HTC kernels and the radios.

HTC#15 seems to only work with 11.19

HTC#17 (older, but better) seems to only work with 09.01

Some people have had no issues with this at all but...
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
First of all, let me say that RLS5 is awesome, stable and worth the download. Now for your question: RLS 4 is, arguably, Myn's fastest rom. It is almost identical to RLS 5 minus the software version and a few tweaks like adfree. It is superior to RLS 5 in regard to battery life and as lowetax stated, with the right combination of rom & kernel, RLS 4 can be downright dream. Give it a try, my friend. Personally, I think you'll like it. To be safe, downgrade your radio and PRI to the ones listed in my previous post. Wipe and then flash it. If you decide to do so, let us know what you think of it. Take care.:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] Product F(RED):
I'll agree about RLS4 and battery life. You think I can replace the framework apks so the notification bar toggles update correctly like in RLS5? I think that was the only issue it had.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
I won't shy away from a not so nice discussion, my friend. Because of my political tweets, I am a target of serious venom...lol...mainly because I don't follow the 'selected' path in regard to politics, so to speak. Anyway, I'm trying to play catch up with this thread before going to bed, but I'm beat so have a goodnight, my friend and thank you.;)

[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
We are indeed spoiled, my friend. Also, I flashed RLS3 earlier and then flashed Ziggy's kernel. The combination was pretty good, but not what I remembered and then it hit me....it was RLS 4 that was the speed demon so I flashed it and all is well with the default HTC #17 kernel once again. Tomorrow, GOD willing, I'll play with some mods and stuff. Anyway, have a goodnight.;)

Running:

Myns Warm TwoPointTwo (RLS5)

[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
Is RLS4 really that much faster? And ok, HTC #15 isn't the greatest out of the box, but is #17 better than net's newer kernels? I know kernels are highly subjective; just looking for opinions.

I'm being temped to try RLS4. Someone needs to take RLS5's framework-res.apk (I think) and get it into RLS4 so we can have updating widgets. Having that 4G widget would be icing on the cake.

Nope, mine is flawless. Not a single glitch. And I get great battery life for the way I use my phone (see my sig for set-up)..

The battery discussions seem to be cyclical. R3, R4, R5...c'mon...

R4 might've been longer battery life but not necessarily better. Might I remind everyone we bought a beast of a phone, and in unrooted stock got half the battery life we get on the worst rooted ROM.

R5 has slightly lesser battery life, sure, but it does more than R4, so how do you expect it to have better battery life?

It's all relative. R5 is the best ROM I've ever used, far and away.

Period.

the blind risktaker that i am, taxnumbness got the best of me ...

while i had Warm Z installed, with all this 9016 notification discussion,

i actually called the 408 phone number that was in the 9016 text notification (when i left myself a test voicemail).

it asked me about voice sms message and handset ...

the first time i pressed 2. (i think it was "don't have handset for that")

i called again and then pressed 1. (i think it was "have handset")

i'm back at RLS 5 (and staying here)

now when i leave myself a test voicemail, i get a notification on the bar that shows the number that called and "left you a voice sms message"

when i press on my voicemail icon : it displays: you have no voicemail messages

but if i call my own number it has my test voicemail.

what did i do ? (besides not go to bed after a long day at the computer)

and what do i do to get my regular voicemail working again

thanks !

and i want it back the other way

did i sign myself up for voice sms messaging ?
