anyone try amazon's new cloud drive service?

its rather nice...very similar to dropbox, but without the option to share files like dropbox (you may be able to share docs pics or other files, haven't looked into that, yet). and you start with 5GB. and get 20GB for a year if you buy an MP3 album...(normally 20/yr for 20GB of space) its not a bad deal if you use amazon for your MP3 store. one negative is that you can only download one file at a time down to your computer, but there is an option to download your purchases and save them to the cloud at purchase time, just noticed that in the options.. I do wish it had an option to take all my prior MP3 purchases and put them on the cloud without me having to upload all of them.

definitely something to look into if you have multiple computers and want to share files among them...and it works with the amazon mp3 app on your phone.

the cloud player on your phone rivals stock music app in how it is setup. but without the sound ehancements and equalizers of poweramp which i prefer.

I had my first everrandom reboot(have had the phone since launch,too) the other night...not sure what did it, was playing words with friends, set the phone down, and a few minutes later i saw it reboot. weird.

but gotta love RLS5, so stable.

I am gonna get back into playing around with my theme, you would think being semi-laid up recovering post surgery, i would have a lot of time to work on it, but nope....Dragon Age II happened. lol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Yes, you could do it via adb or a system level file manager like Root Explorer.

2 things

1. on my 7 home screens... there are 2 "layers" of everything!!! if i long press on the mail widget, i can delete that one and still have one under it!! that applies for everything!!!!!

2. is it possible to have you make (or tell me explicitly) how to replace the 4G icons in this build? i am thinking of replacing that icon with an 8G icon :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
That usually happens when you flash a rom atop another rom without wiping. Is that what you did? If so, simply drag the top most app icons to the trash bin.

I'll leave this question to the techies.

[EVO 4G Android Development] JGW310:
the funny thing is, that i DID wipe the cache......... odd.... oh well, it doesnt really make a difference!!!

and hahahaha i like how you avoided the second Q!! :)

could some techies tell me HOW to make the icons?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
You also have to wipe data as well...

What do you mean how to make icons? Photoshop is good. Gimp is free. They are located in framework-res.apk. Look for icons that begin with stat_....apk.

I briefly looked over it/signed up, I'll get around to testing it out at some point. AudioGalaxy still suffices my needs for the most part. I have 30-35 gb of music, which I certainly don't always need, but it is nice to have it at any time (as long as I have a data connection). I don't have to deal with uploading 30+ gigs to the Cloud (or paying for it), just streams from my PC. I have about 5 gb constantly changing on my sdcard that I use with PowerAmp for longer trips.
[EVO 4G Android Development] steal25:
Thanks bro I appreciate it, gonna go try it now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
how is poweramp on battery ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] roscoenr:
you can use the photo editing program to make the icons the use 7zip or winar and navegate inside the com.htc.resources.apk to res/drawble-hdpi and place themin there. NEVER un zip the apk only place in the pngs then you can make your flashable zip or use adb or root explorer to place in the correct place

and com.htc.resource.apk

[EVO 4G Android Development] Mrsnc131:
Hey, I just got my evo from sprint and everything works fine, it wasn't until I rooted and tried to use htc kernel 17 with hardware model 0004 I noticed it disables the front facing camera has any one found a fix because I have searched to no avail. And I really rather stick to stock 17. Any help is greatly appreciated..
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:
The HTC 17 kernel isn't compatible with th 0004 hardware, as the drivers for the camera in the 0004 hardware are different. You need to run the HTC 15 kernel, if you want a stock kernel. Otherwise, pretty much any of the custom kernels that have been around since January will work. They all are built to be compatible with hardware 0004. The one kernel you selected is not however(99.3% of the time. I think I've seen a few freak Evo's where the cams worked fine with htc 17 kernel) .;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mrsnc131:
Thanks, I was thinking that. This is my second evo. The first was 0002 but I'm on 15 now and everything runs great. Hopefully the battery life is good with 15 as it was with 17
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
I have 0004 and my EVO shipped with HTC#17 (all working)...don't call it freak :D.
[EVO 4G Android Development] JGW310:
are there any programs that will navigate inside of the files for mac? i mean, i have a windows, but i do most of my work on macs......

ALSO: on my SD card, there are MASSIVE files, and i have NO CLUE what they are, what they do, or what they mean.... i really want to delete them, as they are making it really hard to get new apps and take pictures :(

SEE THE ATTACHED PICTURE!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Yes, the program is called BetterZip. It is the equivalent of 7zip.

For some reason, I cannot view the attached photo at this time. I will say this, however, it is recommended that you learn what those file are before deleting them. I do not know how your device is set up so I will not recommend that you delete them unilaterally you're certain of what they are.

It was my understanding that HTC kernel #17 didn't play well with the latest baseband update. I didn't think the hardware was an issue. I'm not certain, however.

posting & replying via the XDA Premium app
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
but - as we all know, for full disclosure,

i do believe that was not with

official Sprint base 3.70.651.1,

which RLS 5 is based on :)

#17 works with RLS 5 if you change the radio/baseband or the PRI to prior version,

although some people were able to use it with all of the latest radios installed
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
you don't need files on your sd card for evo to work

after backing up your data and making a nan backup,

copy your sd card files to your pc or mac

and using the evo, reformat the sd card

then copy back the files you know what they are

and that you want on the sd card (pics, etc.)

that's what i would do

i don't have a lot of data on my evo,

and i Calk's Clear Temp and wipe cache and dalvik cache before i do a nan backup

i nan backup with amon_ra [X] boot [X] system [X] data selected

and my backup file size is roughly 381 MB

1.2 GB or more files sound like nan backups

but the file name doesn't look right
[EVO 4G Android Development] tuscolavol:
I backed up some of my roms using the Clear All zip first. The problem I had was that evidently it clears or reformats the .android_secure folder. I have been grabbing some of the free apps from the new Amazon Appstore.Those apps are put on the sd card and the clear all zip was wiping them off. Just fyi.

Can't get weather for my location to show up

Ever since flying down to the Houston area from home Sunday afternoon, the weather on my home screen's flip clock doesn't show up. I've removed and added Houston as a city, but it still doesn't work. No matter what I do, I can't get any city's weather to appear on the clock. It was fine at home, but once I left town, it stopped working.

[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
You are absolutely correct. I was speaking more towards just the 0004 front camera/camera issues the guy was talking about. I am fairly certain the 0004 drivers are included in htc#17 as I used to use it exclusively wth RLS4 (no custom kernels worked yet :(). I have used #17 with RLS5 and older radios without issue, but it seems like, if you can even get it to boot with new baseband, there are other issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] steal25:
So I moved the new camera.apk to the system/app folder via root explorer then rebooted and nothing happened so i long pressed the apk in system/app folder and click install but then it says application not installed, am I missing a step or do something wrong?

Also in the rom that my camera does work fine, what i had to do was uncheck the auto focus feature to make it not get all staticky and fuzzy, does this sound like a hardware or software problem?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
Steal I'm not sure what you are doing since I haven't kept up. System/app apks don't install. Yo need to make sure permissions are set. Also with respect to the camera there are files in system/lib as well.

attack of the killer tomatoe...the nice one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Using Root Explorer, navigate back to the HTCCamera.apk or whatever camera.apk you're trying to use and select R/W at the upper right corner. Now longpress on the .apk associated with the camera and then select permissions. Make sure the permissions are set as follows:

USER: Read Write

Group: Read

Others: Read

Select okay and then either reboot your device normally or a hot restart. This *should* suffice unless, as Tommy stated, other items associated with the camera needs replacing/adjusting....:)

Now that I'm viewing the photos on my MacBook, I have to agree with you....:)
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:
Freak! :p

I was only referring to the camera drivers, being incompatible. Yes, HTC 17 (usually) wouldn't work on RLS5 unless adjusting the radio/pri accordingly. However, for some guys, even after downgrading PRI/Radio, the HTC 17 would break the camera. Some people reported cameras not working with HTC 17, and I thought it was determined that was because the cameras in the 004 hardware devices had different drivers or something. Maybe my memory is failing me, that was all a number of months ago! With all that said, HTC 17 has always worked great on my 0003 Evo, as long as the pri/radio are downgraded.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 2gunsup:
Love the rom but ever since installing it months ago I have been unable to connect to 4G. Now I know this may have been addressed in this thread already but needless to say this thread is huge. Can someone let me know how to fix 4G?

I have updated my profile as well as prl and still a no go. I am now running a fresh install of this rom, I deleted data/dalvik/cache before installing.

I had installed this package before installing the rom,

EVO_Radio_2.15.00.11.19_WiMAX_27167_R01_PRI_NV_1.90_003.zip

[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
mmm. I know that if you do a factory reset (which will wipe your data partition) you will rid yourself of any user data and thus have to re-sign into your gmail account. This way you reset any sync/account issues. Just be sure to back up any apps you really want.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
What did you restore? Only do apps and their data (and not system apps), don't do anything system/settings related. Also what was your wiping process? It sounds like there are some lingering items...

Can never stress this enough, always always always select what you want to restore manually with TB, it is a great tool, but you have to be selective in order to find/avoid issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slackerlack:
4G support?

I am sure the answer lies somewhere in this thread, but I was not able to find it after searching. Does this Myn ROM have all the bells and whistles working properly? More specifically, does 4G still work on the Evo after flashing this ROM?

[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
at what point does rls 5 not show up in software build number when you paste other rom parts ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jbermi:

and its stable.

anyone usin smooth calendar ever notice how much of a battery hog it is when you are just going in to configure the widget? or it is just me. seemed like it dropped like 7% just changing some settings. still think its the best calendar widget i have used. think i noticed the same thing when i was configuaring simi clock, too.

i can safely say none of any battery issues are ROM or kernel related. but i think some market app devs may be getting tad lazy and not optimizing battery usage. I enjoy word with friends, but the way the app utilizes resources (CPU and battery) are horrible. but i think Angry Birds RIO does a better job of utilizing resources than the original. just little things I have noticed lately.

anyone try out godville? the game cracks me up.

Well then, interesting solution, but if it worked hey...You did have a framework related FC so that actually makes some sense (no pun intended).

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but that should be handled in the build.prop. You could realistically make it say anything you wanted, in addition to having Android build 'x.x', 4.7 if I wanted...

[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
I hear you. I've been flashing a lot of roms lately looking for something better and I've discovered 2 things:

1. There are enough awesome roms out there to satisfy every EVO owner's tastes.

2. My search for something better was all in vain. I already have the best in Myn's Warm TwoPointTwo RLS5....;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
I would redo EVERYTHING from scratch. EVERYTHING meaning the following:

1. Copy the contents of your SD card and place them on your PC/Mac or independent external hard drive.

2. Format and re-partition your SD card (not necessary, but hey, why not?)

3. Place only a newly downloaded RLS5 rom zip, amon RA recovery (zip or img), Radio, Wimax, PRI & NV updates on the root of your SD card. The files can be downloaded from the links below:

RLS5 -- http://goo.gl/rViel

amon RA -- http://goo.gl/cgh5e

Radio Update -- http://goo.gl/PmfKu

PRI Update -- http://goo.gl/A3NE3

NV Update -- http://goo.gl/h8JYf

WiMax Update -- http://goo.gl/qFwCt

4. Shut down your EVO and then press & hold the volume down button while pressing the power button. When your EVO starts, you will be directed to the Hboot screen where amon RA zip file will be automatically detected and you will be prompted to install it. Follow the prompts to install. Installation will take less than 10 seconds to complete. Afterwards, reboot into recovery.

5. Go to the WIPE menu and wipe EVERYTHING except the SD card.

6. Go to the FLASH menu and flash RLS 5 but DO NOT REBOOT!

7. Flash the Radio update. You will see a screen with a device & green arrows. Be patient because you will appear to stall. BE PATIENT and DO NOT PULL THE BATTERY!!!!!!!!!!!After some time has passed, you will automatically be reboot into the recovery screen.

8. Flash the PRI. What I stated in #7 applies here, as well

9. Flash the NV. What I stated in #7 applies here, too.

10. Flash the WiMax. #7 applies here also.

11. Reboot. you WILL APPEAR TO HANG at the white HTC screen. Do not be alarmed. Be patient and DO NOT PULL THE BATTERY. After some time has passed, you will then see the Warm TwoPointTwo Splash screen and appear to hang and afterwards, you will see your home screen.

12. After you've signed in with your Google credentials, go to menu-settings-System Updates and then select Update profile.

If you're in an area that has 4G, go to Menu-Settings-Wireless & Networks and then scroll down and place a checkmark in the box next to 4G. DO NOT USE THE 4G TOGGLE in the notification bar menu. Wait for it to connect and then surf the web. You should be able to. If you are not in an area that has 4G, you will not be able to connect via 4G.
