what you have to do is put the rom on the root of the SD card. Root being the screen that comes up when you connect the phone to the PC. drag and drop it ther. NOT in a folder. Then turn your phone off. Hold Vol down and power it up. then goto recovery, wipe dalvik and cache and do a factory reset. Do those 2-3 times each. doesnt work always doing them once. Now in there gto flash update zip. find it and there ya go.

Such a shame. HTC #17 was the best kernel HTC ever wrote and the best one I ever used.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fmedina2:
I agree. I have never seen such great battery life and performance from my phone than when I was using that kernel.

[EVO 4G Android Development] aburgthing:
I am an HW 002 user but this summary nails it right on the head as far as my experience with both kernels. HTC #17 was/is a fantastic kernel should probably go into the Hall of Fame. #15 was a dissapointment on RL5. MS Net/Toast Mod SBC Kernel v7 no HAVS is a nice alternative now with RL5.

Hey man, thanks for the help.

That's where I put it. I tried that, but the zip file wasn't displaying, which made me think it might be corrupt or something like that.

I'll try what you're saying, and see if that works though. I haven't had any luck any other way.

Need some help

PLEASE dont flame me i know this forum is about myns rom but I need some help from a knowledgeable group. My son has an LG optimus s that wont get past the lg boot screen. I have no nandroid or custom recovery installed as he didnt see the need for it. but I can get to recovery which has a apply update.zip function. I do have stock system,recovery,and boot img. files. I get an error in adb when I try to run adb shell exec` system/bin/sh` failed: no such file or directory It does have some communication with device because it will restart recovery. I have tried to flash a new custom rom/kernel available at android central via the stock recovery but cant get past verification. Any help is greatly appreciated as there seems to be little info on this phone and Im no expert at adb.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Product F(RED):
Not to ignore your post, but you'd have more luck in the Optimus forums. I'd say look for an RUU on the LG site though.

I've been trying to flash this rom for the last hour or so with no luck. I was using the latest Sprint Lovers rom and decided to switch over to this one to see if it would improve battery life. I put the .zip in the root of my sd card and renamed it to PC36IMG. I turned on the phone (vol down + power) and waited for it to scan the card. It found the image and started loading then said it was parsing it. After that it goes right back to the "menu"
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tiffany84:
Don't rename it. Just leave it the way it is, put it on the root of sd card. Then boot into recovery and flash.

No luck. Tried using ROM Manager and manually, both gave same result.

What recovery? when did you root the phone? What hboot did your phone ship with? Which root method did you use, and did you recently root? Seems to be a lot of confusion and issues with recoveries for people lately. Make sure you are using the right version of whichever recovery you are using. There was a bunch of interesting info in this thread recently, just a few pages back, no more than 15 or 20 pages back.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PryorDaniel:
This particular phone was rooted last night with unrEVOked 3.3, shipped with hboot 2.10, and recovery is ClockworkMod v3.0.0.3

I read the thread on here talking about issues people have been having lately with RA so I decided to stick with clockwork for now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:
So strange dude, there is more than one thread that is currently active, with people talking about the must recent clockwork being borked, it seems to be hit or miss I guess. Personally, if it were me, I would try switching to the modified amon ra, which was created specifically for the newer evos, with the new partition size of 40000. Persnlmngr posted a link to this a few pages back I believe, it's also in zikronix thread. That is what I would try, cuz if clockwork is doing what you described, it sounds like it isn't working properly. You should be able to flash a rom in recovery...

Hopefully you get it sorted out, and all these issues with the only two recoveries for our evos gets fixed, it makes me nervous!

Recoveries

Alright, let me make sure I've got this straight. I only need to worry about my recovery image IF I've partitioned my SD card, or updated my Hboot, or have hardware version 0004?

One of the above?

All of the above?

Or some of the above?

Right now I'm using Amon RA and have not had any problems. Of course I haven't done a nandroid lately. Not since I initially put RLS4 on the phone. So I think I'm good. Right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] PryorDaniel:
I got my phone back up and running again. It seems faster, looks nicer, and best of all my battery is dropping 1% a minute like it was on sprint lovers.
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:
I think you are fine. I've always used amon ra, and have never had an issue. I think the problem is mainly for people who have new evos that came with the new hboot versions. If you've had a working recovery, and do what you've always done,i dont see how anything couldve changed by itself. From what I've read, if I understand it correctly, the new evos have a 40k nand partition, which needs a modified recovery to work. The older evos have a 20k nand partition, which is what all the existing recoveries are built for. Someone please set me straight if ive misunderstood. Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:
Sweet, gotta love this rom! If you haven't tried any of ms's sbc kernels, I recommend that you try em out. I've been on the 4.2 sbc v7 for a bit now, and it works amazingly on my evo. Smooth, fast, and tremendous battery stamina. The htc 15 sucked for me.

The part I would change for this is "which is what all the existing recoveries are built for". A lot of the problems happened for our older evos with 20000 partitions when Rom manger updated us to CWM 3.0.0.x. and when we found out we needed CWM 2.5 it was not available in Rom manager any more. One of the posters on this thread has a mini myn's info post that he has hooked to his signature. It provides the files needed and explains which to use and what is going on very clearly.

hey product, do you have signal issues in brooklyn? i had major issues when i traveled downstate (from syracuse) to visit old friends in queens. my battery would drain looking for a signal in 2 hrs flat.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmillspaysbills:
This is probably a really silly question, but for the sake of other noobs out there who are probably wondering the same thing, I'm going to go ahead an ask...

So, when you flash a ROM, you're normally supposed to do a clean wipe/backup etc. correct?

Well, for something like this where you have one .zip file for the ROM, but then all these other .zip files with addons that you're also supposed to flash as if it were a ROM, how exactly do you install all of the add ons?

Am I missing something? I looked all over the internet and XDA for an answer to this, but I didn't seem to find anything.

Thanks again for your continued help, you guys are way more intelligent than I certainly could ever hope to be. I'd still be using a nokia 3310 with snake!

[EVO 4G Android Development] twoeleven99:
myn, ever thought about an aosp rom for the evo ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] thermus:
Its is normal to see an initial 5-10% drop when unplugged. This is a phone and battery thing. Even though the battery says it's 100%, it's not. The battery won't allow overcharging so it will stop charging. In order to get a full 100% charge you have to use a battery wall charger. I use a spare cheapo battery at night so that I can charge my stock battery on my wall charger to make sure I get a full charge out of it.

Doing it this way will keep you from seeing that initial 5-10% drain.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jontorres:
what the hell, I downloaded BFS #11, put the zip onto my SD Card, ran ROM Manager, clicked install Rom, slected the zip, clicked wipe cache or whatever it says, it rebooted, said there was an error, so while in that boot menu where the font is green I wiped cache, then I clicked on Advanced and wiped Dalvik Cache, rebooted, and the ROM is still here but the phone went thru all the prompts you get when new, and my apps are all gone?

Is this what was suppose to happen?
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
I agree. I just flashed the King#11 kernel yesterday and I wanted to see how it did overnight so I used a 100% full battery that had been charged via a wall charger and put that in before I went to bed. I woke up to 100% 4 hours later (yes, late night). I did see it drop 2% after chekcing emails, FB, etc.

FWIW: It is now 7 hours later and I have 55% remaining. I have been running Pandora for 2+ hours with the display mostly on.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kshelton:
Yes please!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jgalan14:
I agree to used the wall charger I got 2 batteries and is the original from HTC they really cheap in amazon, I always large my battery overnight and drop as soon as I check all my msgs, but if I use the one charging with the dock won't drop for like half an hour, I also notice that if I'm not running programs and my Tweetdeck and newsrob update every hour and sync on I get 1 1/2 % drop every hour on my phone if I'm not using.

Got to understand you battery is just going to be as good as you manage your phone and a logic people don't like it to babysit their phones but at the same time want a big screen and multitasking all over so take that into consideration always used WiFi when around helps a lot and if yoU play game it will drain your battery faster

[EVO 4G Android Development] jgalan14:
Mm yeah you did a fully wipe and didn't install the kernel right, I notice that with recovery you need to have it in the root of the sdcard ( not inside a file ) so make sure you have a folder management or wtv ( like astro) and move it to home ( sdcard ) and go to recovery and flash the kernel, just wipe cache and dalvik cache do not do complete wipe cause you will loose all your apps

[EVO 4G Android Development] pdxsam:
Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction to fix this. I loaded this ROM yesterday and it's great. One thing that I'm seeing on this ROM I didn't on Fresh is that when I subscribe to an Exchange server that has a password complexity the password does indeed become active.

On Fresh even though the password needed to be entered, it never got applied to the lock application.

I tried removing the HTC lock but all that did was set the base Android lock as default and still asked for the password.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Sam
[EVO 4G Android Development] jgalan14:
Go to setting/ security and check if the password is on for the lock screen maybe is set and that's y it ask you for it

Edit :Make sure you used none as a default if you don't want you to ask for a password

Anytime you do a full wipe the phone is being set back to stock. I recommend using apps2sd for your apps. That way when installing a new ROM or doing a complete wipe, all your apps will still be installed. :)

If he just wiped cache and dalvik cache then no, that shouldnt have happened and something went wrong. The only time you should end up with a full data wipe is when you do a data/factory reset....

I had copied the zip right over the the SD card, not sure if thats root or?, I see why I did get an error the 1st time, the kernel file wasn't the full download, re-downloaded it again and its on there now..

For future reference, when doing a dalvik and cache wipe, did I do it correctly as mentioned above, Im not sure I understood, and I would hate to be wiping my phone everytime of apps and all.
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
As long as you dont wipe factory/data reset you shouldnt end up with a completely wiped phone. Wiping cache and dalvik cache wont wipe out your evo
[EVO 4G Android Development] jontorres:

I'm not sure if you're referring to my post or not. I wasn't realy talking about any ROM specifically. Myn's in particular made me ask. But there are several ROMs with different "addons" that I'm not particularly clear on how to install.

The Myn's RLS4 is a good example. There are several add ons... clear title bar, vanilla lock screen, boot animations, etc.

How does one go about installing those add ons? Is there a tutorial specifically for that somewhere? It seems like any time you would flash a new ROM you'd wipe it clean, so how do you do this without removing your previous ROM?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Before you flash "anything", boot into recovery and wipe the cache & dalvik at least twice each. If you flash a new kernel, add the battery stats to thar list. As for the mods, if you go to the beginning of a thread, you will usually find a list and sometimes a screenshot of a mod that you may or may not be I terested in. For example, if you wanted to change your battery to look like a circle, you would locate, download, place the file on your SD card, boot into recovery, wipe the above mentioned items and flash it. I know I'm rushing my answer but I've go eat breakfast w/my family.

Right, I get all that. But if there are multiple zip files that you want to install, you can't do them all at once, right? How do you go about doing that?

From what I can tell, you can't select multiple zip files, so how would I install 5 different add ons if when I flash the new ones I wipe clean the old ones?

Am I missing something? Do I need to combine them all into one zip file first?
