Anybody is having issues with the camera not working, my camera is not initializing. I did a full wipe and no dice. Anybody got any suggestions or can direct me to a stock nandroid zip anywhere to do a restore? Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] frankpreyes:
It depends upon which version of Amon Ra you are talking about, as to what he calls it, I believe. I'm on 2.3. You may be on a previous version.

When you start to partition your sdcard, you are asked to input two numbers, increased or decreased by using the volume up or volume down buttons.

The first S/B 512

The second S/B 1024

Then just follow the instructions in my earlier post. PM me if you still do not understand.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
In regard to RLS5, mine is the same way.

No doubt

True

Very true, indeed

Does more in what way? Also, doing more has a lot to do with the user. I would argue that the majority of EVO owners do a lot less than what the phone is capable of.

Yes, it is.

Many others share this same sentiment, my friend..;)

Friends,

I was having some problems with RLS5 (as it appears a few are) so I decided to reflash. I did a nandroid backup then Titanium Backup before reflashing using Amon RA. Before reflashing, I wiped cache, dalvik and data twice. I did not choose factory reset or reset sd ext because I did not want to mess up my partition. Like others who have posted here about the mounting error, after reflashing, I still had most of my apps installed. I have not begun setting up my phone again, and I am getting force closes of some applications that I am not even trying to run. So, obviously something went wrong. Also, when I reset, I get strange bands of color running across my black screen (I got this before which was one of my reasons for reflashing).

Anyway, I know that these issues have been talked about. Here are my questions. I want to wipe completely and correctly and reflash and want to make sure that I am doing it right and won't lose my sd partition for Dark Tremor. I was a little confused when I first set up the a2sd and don't want to have to revisit that again if I don't have to. Also, I have my apps backed up on Titanium and want to be able to reinstall using that. So, what steps should I take to correctly wipe for a reflash?

I'm sorry for what is such a n00b question, but this has thrown me a bit.

Thanks in advance.

Kim
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
Alright, well if you didn't wipe your ext that is why your programs were still there, they are still on the ext. Their corresponding data was likely not because you wiped data (as you should), that is the reason for the FCs. Wiping the ext just clears out everything on it, it doesn't change its properties, I think the mounting error you are referring to is a different issue with a modded version of Amon_RA. Also I would suggest using calk's format all zip, I don't have it handy but its all over the place.

The lines you posted about, that is from recovery? It is a known graphical glitch with the newest AR due to the fact that it uses the latest CM kernel. It is simply graphical it isn't malicious at all. If it bothers you, you can go back to 2.2.1 if you would like. 2.3 is a bit faster though. ;)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=715938

That is the DT thread about a2sd, there is a link to the commands. Run those from TE or adb to get everything set up, it is already included in the rom. If you reinstall your apps from Titanium it will likely put them in /data/app which during the setup of your a2sd will get dynamically linked to the ext partition. I would give a better explanation of it, but I am running out the door :( If you have more questions hopefully someone else will jump in.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Kim, are you using amon RA 2.3 or the amon RA 2.3-Haus Mod? If it's the latter, get rid of it and install the former. Also, when you do a wipe data/factory reset and then wipe everything else, it is my understanding that you are simply formatting the partitions and not deleting them. Having said that, make a nandroid backup of your current setup and select to back up sd ext and android secure along with what is already checked. Afterwards, go ahead and do a full wipe/factory reset and then wipe everything else except the SD card. Flash the rom and reboot. Your 3rd party apps will not be installed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] grants04:
Thank you for the help. Before my first reflash, I did a nandroid backup and know that I checked "sd ext". Not sure about "android secure" but may have. Regardless, I made a copy of my sd card and "android secure" is on that so I should be good.

I have just wiped "all user data/factory reset", cache and dalvik cache. Should I also wipe "data", "sdcard:.android_secure", "boot", "system", "sdcard", "sdext" "data: battery stats" and "data:rotate settings" or just some of those?

I am using 2.3, but not 2.3 haus mod.

Thanks in advance!

Kim
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
At least we know that Warm is in good hands :) haha
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Yes, wipe everything EXCEPT your "sdcard". It's okay to wipe "sdcard:android_secure", however.

Thank you! Flashing now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slthree:
There has been some conversation about RLS3 and RLS4 being better than RLS5 in certain respects.

I never went with 4 because I loved 3 so much. I just flashed 5 a couple of days ago for the first time. Still learning and getting used to it.

Even though I downloaded the web browser fix from Myns optional downloads, my internet, even on wifi from home, is not as good as it was on 3.

Are there more fixes I dont know about or should I revert to 3 or try 4 for the 1st time?

Myn gives us so many nice options
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
jamal, look what we've started haha

3 &4 are rather similar, and I think it's just preference. I know my setup with 4 was incredible was fantastic so I might go with that. Jamal had a great setup for 3 so he's going to that. If you loved how 3 ran I'd stick with it :)

And for the record, Rls 5 is in NO way worse than it's predecessors. It was just easier for me to find insane battery combos with 3 & 4, while I can't get that affect with 5 :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
hey doug, although i've never gotten into that a2sd and sd-ext stuff,

but from what i've seen in this thread,

correct me if i'm wrong here,

it's my understanding that since Windows doesn't recognize the sd-ext partition,

when you plug into your pc and backup the sd card, that does NOT back up the sd-ext partition ... ???
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
now don't be reverting back to Windows 3.1,

with it's *26* 3.5" floppy discs to install !
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
(Laughing)...with each RLS version, there are improvements. What one user considers the best another user might consider the worst. I love all three of the aforementioned rom with RLS5 being my favorite but not overwhelmingly. In my opinion, RLS4 seemed polished from the start and i had better battery life with it. I've done just about all I care to do with RLS5. I mean I have my device set up exactly how I want it. Because RLS4 wasn't out long before 5 appeared, I'm taking this opportunity to reacquaint myself with it and see how far I can push it. Isn't that one of the reasons we rooted our devices? Having said that, do a nandroid backup of your current setup, download and flash RLS4 and five it a test run. Heck, if you dislike it, simply nandroid restore....;)... Enjoy.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
(Laughing)...who would have "thunk it"?.....I did indeed flash RLS3 but quickly discovered that RLS4 was the one I was referring to in regard to speed and battery life. You were indeed right. I quickly wiped and flash RLS4 and the battery life is back to where I remembered. Excellent setup with the reliable HTC #17 kernel. I'm going to okay with this rom for a couple of days then nandroid restore back to RLS5 and then decide on which to make my daily driver until the next big thing surfaces.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
If you just use explorer, you can't see the ext partition. You'd have to use a imaging program to back that up.

You won't really need to have a windows backup unless you moved dalvik cache to SD and you want to save yourself some drama if your SD card crashes.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
That is my understanding as well, Bruce. Like you, I don't deal with a2sd or should I say apps2sd?...lol...Maybe if I had a great deal of games and stuff I would put some time into experimenting with it, but my apps are primarily business or root related.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aburgthing:

[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
the only reason i mentioned it ...

kim said she backed up her sd card ...

but the sd-ext partition isn't a part of that backup
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
That is why many of us regulars have complete backups of our devices saved elsewhere. I have the .apk files of my 3rd party apps saved in a separate folder on my SD card as well as on my MacBook. The .apk files for Root Explorer & my password app also saved on the root of my SD card so that after I flash a rom, I immediately install the password app to retrieve the encryption keys for my wifi and then I install Root Explorer and use it to disable certain default apps that I don't want as well as to install my 3rd party apps. After that, I open the Market app just auto install any available updates for my 3rd party apps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Oh okay.......;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
I use DT a2sd for my apps, and I'm pretty sure that doing a backup with Ti Backup will save these apps. DT's a2sd tricks the OS into thinking the ext is part of the main memory. Ti's property for these apps actually say its located internally. This is what I'd do for a reflash.

1) Backup apps with Ti Backup (only user apps + data), which sounds like kim did.

2) Wipe data, cache, dalvik, sd:ext, and .android.secure

3) Flash the ROM

4) From the market, download both Ti backup and Terminal Emulator

5) Run Terminal Emulator, type the following:

su

a2sd reinstall

6) Restore user apps + data with Ti Backup

I think the key is to make sure sd:ext is wiped and a2sd is reinstalled to make sure the flag to move internal apps to ext is set. Hope this helps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
Sorry, I meant to say you don't need to have a windows backup of the ext partition.

Besides, backups are for sissies! :rolleyes:

[EVO 4G Android Development] jbermi:
ok, gonna throw my 2 cents in on this whole RLS3,4,5...which is better.

all 3 have been stable as hell and absolutely bugfree for me. once i flashed RLS3 a week after rooting and using fresh and evio prior to trying out. I have not looked back, my EVO is warm for life.

battery life seems to be the sticking point for some, performance for me has been just about the same from each RLS...i am happy with how the phone performs, snappy, fast and smooth. emphasis on smooth...and how easy it is to theme myns and it looks good is very nice.

everyone seems to want amazing battery life to last them 24 hours off charger, etc....come on people, be realistic for a moment. are you awake for 24 hours? are you constantly using your phone every minute you are awake? no, if you are, then you are not human, just sayin'. so let's say you are awake 16-18 hours a day, you would expect the battery to give you at least that, i expect that (i did not get that til i rooted).

right now i can go 16 hous off with 4-5 hours awake, easily with my setup. even under heavy usage 12-14 hours off charger is not unheard of and when i am going to plug my phone in, its still at 30-40%.

I think some people put too much emphasis into battery life and performance (overclockers, i am referring to you) that they panic when it drains too fast, etc. I hav stopped worrying about my battery, I use my phone as a phone more than i use it as gaming or media player, but its good to know if i need to kill some time, i won't kill my battery.

ok, i think i am done with my rant :D, i blame it on my painkillers (vicodin is good stuff), week post-op and i feel good.

[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:

[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:

Nice. I have a herniated lumbar disk right now. Been out of action for weeks with norco to dull the pain. I'm surprised I haven't had any off-the-wall comments yet. :) Anyways, back to proper discussion regarding warm2.2.

I've noticed that 4G turns on automatically when booting up when I've used the notification widget to toggle it. Is this a known issue or just a problem with my install?

And I have the 3G data connection intermittently turning off even though the settings menu shows it on. A toggle there turns 3G back on. I'm beginning to believe its an issue with my install.

I've tried to search this thread, but we all know how easy that is.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Yes, that is a known issue. To fix the problem, make sure the 4G toggles displays off as well as unchecked 4G in the settings menu and then reboot. Now when you want to connect via 4G, check the 4G box in the settings menu and do not use the toggle in the notification bar.

Go to Menu-Settings-Wireless & Networks-and then click on the second Mobile network listing. If "Enable always-on data" is unchecked, that might explain it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
I just didn't want to admit I am so OC that I have a procedure written on how to use my backup files and settings to return the phone to the same state as it is now. :eek:

It did take me 6 months to dive in and finally root the bugger back in nov.

Please help fellow mynions.

I have one single major problem that is keeping me from having a perfect RLS5 setup. My browser speed is still ungodly slow even after first trying the adfree fixes both trying to revert and dl new host files. I even tried to do the manual fix recommended a few pages back but in using both androzip and astro im not able to delete or rename the host file. I love my rls5 setup with all my mods but the browser speed it just terrible. I am able to play on xbox live using wifi tether and barnacle and in Warm Z my browser flies so its not an issue with 3G service in my area or anything like that. Please somebody help.
