[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] athasian:
I'm afraid you might be still slightly confused. the S-off you're seeing is more likely part of the ENG Bootloader instead of the same as the unrevoked s-off

both do the same thing, but the eng bootloader needs to be replaced for the s-on to re-appear.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrapkgb:
That's initially what I was thinking too since I installed Unrevoked 3.21 NOT Unrevoked forever. Installing the s-on just for ****s and giggles wouldn't hurt anything right? I just don't want to unroot and then realize it still has s-off, then have to re root and start over. Any thoughts?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] athasian:
no, it shouldnt hurt anything. Just might not solve your problem if its the bootloader that is s-off
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tailsthecat3:
thanks. how is it?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
So far it seems to be fairly better than there prior release. Havent had enough time for thorough testing but not bad at this point.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
So is this going to be a replacement of your original Sprint 2.27.651.6 STOCK Deoxed? Or will that ROM be updated individually? Also, is this a work in progress (should I wait for improvements/addition of features)?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] mbobino:
Wish you would have uploaded this a few hours ago while I still had internet at "ludicrous speed". :) I'll download this tonight over the next couple hours and do some testing. I added it to the wiki and also want to know if it is replacing your previous stock ROM so I can remove it or at least add a outdated tag or something.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
No I will update my other roms seperately this will be the base stock rom unmodified for all those that just want the basic with root, tethering and a2sd
[Hero CDMA Android Development] b0ricua:
Can you use Zen Kernel for OC purposes with this ROM?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dhero1:
Got an abort while flashing the ODEX rom:

Copying files ....

E:Command run_program: non-package program file "DATA:dtinstall.launch" not supported

E:Failure at line 132:run_program DATA:dinstall.launch

Installation aborted.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yes you can :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skanndelus:
so will this wipe my phone back to stock, or will all my apps and settings keep?

guessing i put this zip on my sd, and then flash it?

does it update or just reinstall a fresh rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
I am testing it now and will see, worked previously
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ziaodix:
I got the same thing with the deodexed version.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chefthomas99:
How does this differ from the other nfx rom? Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dhero1:
I've run Regaw's "[UNLOCK] S-OFF and NAND UNLOCK TOOL for ALL CDMA Heros", where I first moved hboot back to 1.47 - would that be the difference?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
no I beleive it is just an error in the script I am working on it right now will post the fixed ones soon
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
Now I am a bit confused. What does the original stock de-odex have that this doesn't?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ziaodix:
He does two seperate ROMs. NFX & this. This is just a stock from sprint with root and a couple added extra's. His other is his themed.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] skanndelus:
will this just patch what i already have? will i still have my contacts, apps, settings etc?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
Well to be honest I figured If it was posted in the original thread that has just gotten to large for people to have to go thru. This is more user friendly and will make it easier for others to find information.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jxr94:
Yea good idea lol, cuz i would've proly skipped over it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Outer Marker:
The apps may have moved, but it looks like the Dalvik cache did not - perhaps accounting for the 30MB difference. There seems to be some command you can use in A2SD to move dalvik to SD, but for me it is also available at the recovery. I am using Amon_RA 1.6.2

Will that work for you?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] DubsideWICKED:
im new here so enlighten me

The codes an stuff to root easy, iv delt with modding game consoles an Windows computers. I curently don't have a computer to use right now to do it all. But all I want is to root my phone keep stock Rom with the new update 651.7, nothing added taken away or modded so on a shorter note is this what I'm looking for or not?

I just want to get rid of apps an have close to no lag anymore,
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ziaodix:
Yes, this is exactly what you are looking for my friend. nfinitefx45 has done a great job. This ROM is completely stock, minus the obvious root, busybox, su that comes with a ROM to "maintain" root access.

It does have A2sd, but if you don't partition your sdcard then it wont effect you either way.

I've been using this for 2 days and have yet to experience serious lag or any kind of lock ups or random reboots.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
Okay, I've got good news and bad news: the good news is, you're onto something with the dalvik cache idea. The bad news is, there's something wrong because it didn't work.

I ran a2sd cachesdreset, and I'm still showing 63.55 meg after reboot.

So I ran a2sd check, and here's what it said about what's on the sdcard (in relevant part):

Apps - [âœ”] Programs run from SD card

To run from internal storage, type a2sd remove

Private Apps - [âœ”] Private Programs run from SD card

To run from internal storage, type a2sd remove

Dalvik Cache - [ ] Regular directory.

[ ] Dalvik to SD flag file found.

[âœ–] Dalvik runs from Int. Storage.

Setup issue. Run a2sd repair to fix.

Notice that it says Dalvik runs from Internal Storage. Setup issue. Run a2sd repair to fix.

So I ran a2sd repair, and here's what came back from that:

[ ] Apps2SD is launching...

|__/ | Darktremor Apps2SD 2.7.5.1 (2010-09-22)

[ ] GetProp Command = /system/bin/toolbox getprop

[ ] SetProp Command = /system/bin/toolbox setprop

[ ] Mount Point = /system/sd

[ ] Starting Darktremor Apps2SD Version 2.7.5.1

[ ] Launching Apps2SD Start Program with repair

[ ] Moving Dalvik-Cache to SD card

mv: can't rename '/cache/dc/*': No such file or directory

So the bottom line is, dalvik is not getting moved to the card. The next sad fact is that I have no idea what the output from the repair utility means. :o

I hope someone else can do something with the info I've presented here.

Electrikjesus, are you out there??? :)

Many thanks to anyone who can help!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] scifan:
There appears to be something whacked with wifi access on the odex version as mentioned above... not sure what to check on it...

The Deodexed version seems to be much happier... and works with wifi...

AND it's much zippier with the Zen kernel running at 691 on it...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
guys just hang in there i am testing a new release I beleive I got a2sd and dalvik to cache working with each other so I will know soon. So was working on something else that just popped up and slowed me down.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] metal666fukhead:
well im gonna try completely wiping and reflashing and see if i can get wifi working if not i dont kno what else to try :confused: if anyone has gotten wifi to work on the a2sd odex version please lemme kno...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
You are just awesome, dude!

Btw, I posted earlier that Linpack froze my phone, but it seems to be running fine now, so don't worry about that.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
I believe something had to have been corrupted as I am running the odex and havent had any issues with wifi, and I have been using it very heavy.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ziaodix:
Same here.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tkirton:
It looks like the first version of 2.7.5.1 is loaded...this has a bug that, apparently, I didn't catch during the last set of testing. Some of the variables that control things use a variable that states the path of the busybox to use. This code was moved to the front of launcha2sd in order to accomodate some final changes.

The code that detects which Busybox to use wasn't moved ahead of that code, so you'll get a lot of errors.

Download the latest iteration of version 2.7.5.1. It has this issue fixed: http://www.darktremor.info/files/a2sd/dtapps2sd-2.7.5.1-adv-signed.zip
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
Thanks tkirton I will update the roms this evening and get the reposted
[Hero CDMA Android Development] fczeuner:
In the mean time would doing an a2sd remove and flashing the a2sd from the previous post be a work around?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
Yes that should work fine.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
I just tries that with no success.

Looks like I'll have to wait for nfinite's fix...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xanadu1979:
I just flashed the zip and did a2sd repair and everything seems to look good. I didn't even remove it before I flashed.

I'm new to this though, I'm basing the fact that it looks good by doing an a2sd check. The results of that say that everything is running from the card.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ziaodix:
Don't forget mirrors if you don't mind. ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jles1693:
I am using zenkernel noperflock and a2sd and without issue, I am at 137mb free as we speak
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jles1693:
you cant use adb check it is not a valid option you have to switch to root and use a2sd

from adb you have to run adb shell

su if your not at the #

a2sd check (then you will see all of the info about a2sd )
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ozzie1p:
Thanks for the response! I'm pretty sure I'm running the command right. I should have explained myself better, sorry. I'm in shell with the # sign and running /system/bin/a2sd check. I'm showing 135mb free but the check returns line after line of "command not found" like a2sd is not even running. Even though I show all that free space....weird. I'll probably just wait till the update now.

How's the battery life with the zenkernel compared to the stock?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
I followed your route and I'm good now ... showing 139 meg available space!

Woo Hoo! :D

What I failed to do earlier was to run a2sd repair.

A2sd check now says this:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jles1693:
ah i see np, did you already try a2sd reinstall and see if it helps, battery life doesnt seem to have changed much, granted the phone is a bit faster running at 710mhz with setcpu, I will update battery specs in about a day to see where I am at
[Hero CDMA Android Development] metal666fukhead:
i just noticed this today...i did a complete wipe and reflashed, then immediately after the phone was done loading i went to wifi and it worked so i rebooted checked it again and it still worked so couple hours later of nonstop use i decided to flash the darch kernel vuv2 768 w/ mem tweak (which i always flash before zenkernel just to get the memory settings to stick)...so after flashing the darch kernel i booted up checked wifi and it didnt work...any ideas???? are u using an oc'd kernel? maybe the wifi doesnt like the undervolt but the gps and radio seem to be just fine so i dunno
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
Hey nfinitefx45 could you possibly include FriendStream in the rom?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
this is using an updated htc kernel. I will try to through aup a new overclocked kernel in the nex hour
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
I believe he has another rom out with friendstream in it. This is just stock with root modifications, so he may not want to add friendstream to it :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
Well if this rom get merged into the other ones then it wont be an issue. xD
[Hero CDMA Android Development] joehunni:
Just wanna say, been running this rom since it dropped an it's the best rom yet. This seems so much smoother than the .6 version and I'm not even overclocked. Battery life has also greatly improved, I'm at 12 hours now with pretty decent usage and I just hit 50%, can't wait for this to be optimized to the fullest seeing how awesome it already is, keep up the great work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
new 691 kernel for this rom only

Check at the bottom of the first post Enjoy, let me know if there is an issue
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
So this is an over-clocked Kernel?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
yes it is at 691 and perf unlock so you can use an overclock app to adjust to your liking
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Coolaaron88:
Ah thanks for the prompt reply
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
If I'm currently running the ZenKernel-HTC-08122010-noperflock, can I just flash your new kernel over it, wipe dalvik and reboot? Or flash your kernel then the Zenkernel again? Or should I do a re-flash of your rom from scratch, then flash your new kernel straight over that?

Just not sure what's the best thing to do.

Thanks, nfinite!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
just flash the kernel and reboot, no need to wipe. and no need for the added zen kernel it is already incorperated
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
Thanks, nfinite!

Is this kernel undervolted?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
Hmmm, wifi appears to be broken in the new kernel...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
See my post over in the CM6 forum, I informed you on how to do it over there :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
hmmm didnt break mine, I will have to check this out on my other hero.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xanadu1979:
wifi won't start for me either. I flashed over the ZenKernel.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
Ok check the bottom of the first post had to update it, it should work fine know just re download and flash
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
Thanks nfinite, rebooting now.

Back to my earlier question, is this kernel UV'd?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] systemshock869:
Hey I have a few questions..

1) Can I flash the A2SD version over the original ROM without wiping anything?

2) Is the posted 691 kernel one of the zenkernel releases, or is it a modified version?

3) How is the battery life on the 691 kernel?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chefthomas99:
What did you update?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
I had the wrong wlan.ko in the kernel package
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
He built a 691 kernel that had a bug, and he fixed the bug then posted a link to the fixed kernel at the bottom of his first post.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chefthomas99:
Don't need to flash any kernel then? Or use setcpu? Sorry if dumb questions
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
nope this should do you
[Hero CDMA Android Development] chefthomas99:
Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] indiscriminant:
I flashed the rom successfully, booted etc.

Then I flashed the kernal in the bottom of your OP and it has hung on boot.

I am flashing the Odex version w/o A2SD

I have had no issues with previous roms and understand this is still under construction, just posting that it happened so you can look into it.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
Cool thank for the heads up, maybe try to do wipes of dalvik and cache to see if that corrects it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] indiscriminant:
I did a full factory reset and all wipes prior to flashing the ROM itself.

The previous ROM btw was your .6 stock.

After flashing the .7 stock rom are you saying to wipe dalvik/cache a second time prior to flashing the kernal?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
no only if you run into the boot loop issue
[Hero CDMA Android Development] indiscriminant:
Still no dice, I tried to load the rom, boot, then wipe dalvik/cache and flash the kernal as well. Still looped/hung.

Also tried to flash the kernal immediately after flashing the new rom. No luck there either.

I will revert to my nandroid of .6 until you have a chance to check into this, thanks again for all your work on this and roms like the wildfire port.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] metal666fukhead:
well i seem to have fixed my issue with the wifi...all i did was do the wipe data/cache and wipe dalvik TWICE then reflashed the rom checked and wifi was working so i went ahead and ran the module remover then flashed the darch kernel vuv2 768 w/ mem tweak checked out the wifi and it was still working! =] so then i preceeded to flash the kenkernel over that and wifi is still working perfectly! =D so not really sure what fixed it but im happy...i was gonna give ur kernel a try nfinite but my phone runs so great at 768 im kinda spoiled with it and i love not having to use auto killer...thanks for everything u do in the community and i look forward to trying more of your work! =]
[Hero CDMA Android Development] c00ller:
I'd also love to know if this new kernel is UV'd! I really love ZenKernel as its kept my phone running smooth and with great battery life, but if you think it's really worth updating to this new kernel I will trust your judgement.

Also, I know you said it runs at 691 but you also said perlock is disabled. Does that mean with SetCPU we can push it to 768 if we like?

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
Can't nandroid after flashing new kernel!

I seem to have a major problem ... I can't seem to make a safe nandroid backup after flashing the new kernel.

I'm running RA 1.6.2 recovery, which has never given me any problems.

I flashed the kernel and got everything running like I wanted, then did a nandroid backup, rebooted normally, then rebooted to recovery and tried to restore to that new backup, and got an immediate error that said "ERROR: Run android-mobile.sh-restore", or words very similar to that.

I thought maybe it was just a bad boot into recovery so I rebooted and tried again, and got the same error.

Fortunately, I had an earlier nandroid backup of the new rom without the new kernel, and was able to restore to that with no problem. So I rebooted into that, then re-flashed the new kernel and did two new separate nandroid backups of the new rom with kernel, and I'm getting the same error when I try restoring to either of them.

So, effectively, I can't restore to any nandroid backups that have been made with the new kernel. :eek:

Sure hope someone can help get me past this!

Many thanks in advance...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ziaodix:
Any chance on mirrors nfinitefx45 for the new ROM w/A2sd?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ozzie1p:
WiFi still busted

I downloaded the 691 kernel this morning, flashed it and wifi is still broken. I'm running the odex a2sd version. Everything else runs beautifully! Any ideas how to get wifi going?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] xanadu1979:
Did you download the one from the first post in this thread? Not the one he attached a few pages back.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
Yes i will get the mirrors up later today sorry for the delay got side tracked by the froyo release

Just to see if it works, try to flash the zenkernel overtop and see if this corrects the issue. I havent had an issue with it my wifi works fine
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ozzie1p:
Ya, I got the one from the first post. Bummer, cause the kernel runs sweet otherwise.

I'll try that nfinite, thanks!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ozzie1p:
Hmmm...I flashed the zenkernel perflock and wifi still doesn't work. I don't think it's hardware because I used it this morning on nfx. My kernel is showing as 2.6.29 jason@bluecove #1.

edit: Wiped dalvik and flashed the kernel again and still no luck.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] scifan:
I'm glad I saw this... was starting to wonder why it seemed to work sometimes, but not on other circumstances...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Outer Marker:
Is A2SD working from the get-go on this yet? Or do you still have to do the repair/reinstall/cachepart business to get it going?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
As soon as I can I am posting an update that tkirton told me about. Just got hung up on the froyo build
[Hero CDMA Android Development] metal666fukhead:
heres what i did to get wifi working...i wiped everything twice flashed nfinites .6 odex version then wiped only the dalvik and reflashed the .7 a2sd odex version and now my wifi works fine even after flashing kernels so right now im on the zenkernel at 768 w/ mem management and loving it!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ozzie1p:
Sweet, thanks man, I'll give that a go. Did you flash any kernels on the .6 before flashing the .7?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
Nevermind, I found the problem...I had corrupted the RA 1.6.2 recovery by downloading a different version of Busybox.

I re-flashed RA 1.6.2 recovery and all is good now. ;)

Pure smooth and sweet setup now! Rom is perfect, kernel is perfect!

Thanks, nfinite!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] metal666fukhead:
No I just flashed the .6 let it completely boot up checked to make sure everything worked then rebooted into recovery wiped dalvik only then flashed .7
[Hero CDMA Android Development] systemshock869:
How is battery life on the 691? The stock version lasts forever compared to cm6 froyo extremely blue
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
I will drop slightly other then that it is excellent for overclocked
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
I'm getting very good battery life with my current deoxed a2sd configuration running nfinite's 691 kernel (I haven't flashed any Zen kernel on top of that).

I don't know if nfinite's 691 kernel is undervolted or not, but I don't think it is, because he never said it was. If it's running at stock voltage, then it's certainly giving me the best battery life I've ever gotten from any rom running a stock voltage kernel.

Also, Sprint's 2.31.651.7 release is supposed to offer somewhat improved battery life anyway, so I'm sure that's helping things a little.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] nfinitefx45:
yes it is not undervolted just overclocked

245 - 691

I have another that I have been running for tests at 633 so far so good
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oldjackbob:
Hey nfinite, do you think you'll ever release a UV'd version of your new kernels?

Your kernels are even better than Zen's (at lease for your roms). When I run any of Zen's kernels, Swype doesn't come up properly after boot, and even after I get it running it causes some screen drags to stutter. But with your kernel, Swype behaves like it was built right into the rom from the beginning. Very nice! ;)
