Slug, when I setup apps2sd a few nights ago I wroted down each step in case it got to a point where my performance slowed noticeably. It has not impacted my performance at all, so if you'd like I can post the steps I took when I get home from work tonight.

That's really weird man. Me and some other people have been having issues not seeing any avatars or pictures or text when reading a PM. I think it has to do with the site itself. Try clearing out your cache (on your browser, not phone :P)
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
Oh yes thank you. Or PM me. Something. I took a screen shot of my a2sd check and am hoping someone can help me fix whatever it is that I broke.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cirehawk:
I'll let you know.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cirehawk:
Roger that. I'll message you later. I'm by no means an expert, but I seem to be funtional enough that I may be able to help.

Okay weird thing. I just put RLS4 on went fine. Then flashed netarchy's kernal on page #1 and all of sudden my camera wasnt working. Any ideas? Update: I tried to reflash the rom again and then netarchy's kernal and its a no go

[EVO 4G Android Development] cirehawk:
Hey, I'm having a wierd issue with wifi tethering and wondering if anyone else is experiencing something similar. First off, when I was using RLS3 the wifi tether app was working great. I hadn't really used it since the RLS4 release but tried it out today. The initial problem I had was that I enabled encryption, but neither myself or a co-worker could connect and acquire an IP. I know encryption didn't work in the past, but for some reason I thought it worked for me in RLS3. I could be wrong though, but at any rate I disabled it. Once I did, both of us could connect and it would work beautifully for about 5 minutes. Then our connections would drop and we couldn't connect again unless I cleared the data/cache. Once I cleared cache, we could connect but would drop again after a few minutes.

I then tried the Sprint hotspot and it worked without losing connection, which is great except that I actually like the wifi tether app better. Anyone else seeing this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:


Ahh yes, "enable root mode", that was it. Yea, OS monitor is a useful app, for seeing what your phone is up to behind the scenes. My battery life appears to be holding up better with the governor on smartass. It was going quick, before I changed it up. I'm curious if yours will react the same.
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:


I had that happen when I first set up the wireless tether app. It was because my computer was defaulted to connect to WEP security. I had to switch it to WPA or WAP2 or something along those lines. It worked after that. Perhaps try playing with some of those settings on your computer. Hope maybe you have the same issue
[EVO 4G Android Development] subminimal:
What’s the advantage of running dalvik from the SD card? Wouldn't the internal memory be mire efficient?

Earlier today I tried moving dalvik to sd and increase size to jumbo and it got me stuck on the white evolution screen ...nandroid didn't play nice on the restore so I did a full wipe and started over.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cirehawk:
My battery was doing fairly well anyway (even though it seemd to have defaulted to interactive), but I will run smartass for a while and provide you with feedback for comparison.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bmtx16:
Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. I've had the same exact problemo. . . I use my wifi tether at home alot and I was smack in the middle of downloading RLS 4, while on RLS 3, and even with a few roaming bars I had amazing D/L speed, like 399 kb/s :D and all of a sudden.... boop. It's gone. so pissed . . four different attempts all ended the same. and Tether mode through usb and the Stock Hotspot aren't near as fast :( I have no default connection like WEP or anything. I fixed that long ago. Plus on the new versions of the app I tried even using the lock feature in HOPES that it'd work. Still didn't ... the app still shows data flowing in and out constantly. O.o I'm lost.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cirehawk:
Just to be clear, you're saying your "computer" was defaulted to WEP? When I had encryption turned on for wifi tether, I put in a WPA passphrase. When I connected from my PC it prompted me for the phrase and connected after I entered it. If my PC was set to WEP, wouldn't it NOT connect since wifi tether was set for WPA?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Biofall:
Myn,

This might be a little presumptuous of me to ask, but..

I and many others see the same questions (generic and specific) regarding battery life about ten times a day on every ROM/kernel thread. I have been compiling a list for awhile with tips and tricks, along with pretty interesting recent findings. If you could post it in one of the OP's, I think it would not only reduce thread clutter but it would also help gain some notoriety for some common issues.

No problem if you don't want to,

Thanks for the amazing ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:


Correct. It would not have connected if it was on WEP. And yes, I meant my laptop was on WEP. I don't know hit happened, because I had used it for WiFi tether on other roms, but somehow it got changed on my laptop, so it would no longer connect with encryption enabled, only with encryption disabled would it connect. Other than that, I personally would try a different version of the tether app. There's a link somewhere around that has all of the versions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Not all of them. At least not yet. With RLS4, I've tested HTC's #10 & #17 kernels, Ziggy's 471 and I'm currently testing Netarchy ToastMod BFS BFQ NOHAVS Smartass. I've haven't tried the Baked Kernels yet, but I plan to. Thus far, my current kernel (Netarchy's) has performed the best and has given me the best battery life. HTC #17 would be a close second. Unlike others, I've yet to have any issues with any of the kernels I've tried. I have had no random reboots whatsoever, but I'm not complaining. Before I flash ANYTHING, I wipe the cache & dalvik 4 times each. Before flashing a different kernel, I do the aforementioned as well as wipe the battery stats 4 times. YES, I know it's overkill, but hey, it works for me.

NOT Myn's rom related but need help please:

I have managed to f-up my apps2sd. I was never able to get my pc to communicate with the phone so I'm using terminal emulator. I took a screen shot of the a2sd check. I have fixed the dalvik cache to sd. The partition was set up over the weekend. I am getting FC all over the place, I have updates from the market hungup in the install process, only half my apps came back with a re-boot, I restored them with Titanium...it's all f-ed up :eek:

This is the first time a Nandroid restore did not put me right back where I was.

Anyway - this thread is cluttered enough and I know this is user related and not rom related, if someone would be willing to PM me and help me offline, I'd really appreciate it.

p.s. my SD card (a2sd) = 448mb/325mb free
[EVO 4G Android Development] frankpreyes:
I also had a problem with wifi tether. Go to the website and down the latest apk. I use either the sprint hotspot or wifi. Sometimes the sprint version is faster, other times there is no difference in speed. Today, sprint was faster. Go figure. I have the beta 15 release for evo. Also, make sure you downloaded the correct wifi tether fot your evo. I connect to a lenovo laptop and get more consistent tethering with the lenovo connection manager vs the xp version. Windows 7 connection is better (home laptop). Sometimes I have to change the channel (defaults to 6) to either 1 or auto. To get a connection. Also change the name of your connection and passphrase, if you run into connection problems with wifi tether. Sprint wifi, fot me has fewer connectivity problems. Your mileage may vary.

[EVO 4G Android Development] cirehawk:
But here's the thing. As I said, I disabled encryption and both myself and my co-worker connected just fine. It would just stop working after a few minutes. In fact, I just tested it again (only myself this time). I connected just fine and was working great. Then all of a sudden, poof! My connection dropped.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cirehawk:
I should be home soon slug. I'll PM you in about half an hour.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cirehawk:
Thanks. I am basically using the version that came with myns RLS4, which is 2.0.5-pre14. I'll give pre15 a try. I have already tried the name change and passphrase change. If I have to use sprint hotspot, it's no biggie. The wifi tether app just gives more detail. Plus, I hate not being able to figure out why something isn't working. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] frankpreyes:
That is why I moved to 15. I had the Same problems as you have. The connection got better with 15, but is still less consistent than hotspot. I have a poor sprint connection at work. Maybe that is the same problem for you where you connect.

[EVO 4G Android Development] kpost:
Odd issue, that I just realized. When using handcent or stock messaging, if I try to attach an image and send from within either app, the message is never received (I receive no error messages). Now if I go into gallery and select a pic and then hit share, handcent or messaging, it works. Any body have any ideas it would be great, my poor husband was being accused of ignoring messages ;) , because I knew he received some. I have tried this multiple times and I am sure of the situation.

--early issues resolved, thank you to those who offered their feedback.
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:


As far as the connection cutting out, as the last guy said, try changing the channel from 6 to 1. That solved it for me, when it would drop. Only other time it dropped, was when my phone went to sleep (mobile always in is unchecked), so the data would cut. I'm sure you already know that, and set the tether app to not let the screen cut out. Just throwing ideas out there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
My nandroid didn't restore right either. I am back to having a stable phone. Barely stable. Still real laggy and slow. I wish I had never done the apps2sd, but now I am determined to figure it out!
[EVO 4G Android Development] myn:
Got a link?
[EVO 4G Android Development] supdawg:
Can someone please tell me how to determine what app is causing my device not to sleep (spare parts -> Other usage -> 100.0% running)? Been going on for a week or two, and its killing my battery. Seems like a reboot fixes it temporarily, but within a day or so, its back.

Stock Rls4 kernel btw. No setcpu or battery tweaks installed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] eyeballer:
When it happens, use osmonitor to see what's using the cpu.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:

[EVO 4G Android Development] myn:
Yes sir. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Biofall:
Haha the one in my sig, sorry
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
Change the settings. Look at cpu usage and partial wake usage. I think it defaulting to "other usage" kinda sucks, I never look at that.

So look and see what is using your cpu or what might be keeping your phone awake.
[EVO 4G Android Development] supdawg:
See, that's not it. It's not that something is using the CPU. It's something is not allowing my device to not sleep (ie, the screen turns off, but doesn't go to sleep?) Not really sure how to explain it other than by my "Other usage" in Battery History in Spare Parts is 100% Running. When i click on it, it says "Time spent without sleeping: (uptime).
[EVO 4G Android Development] supdawg:
Nothing out of the ordinary with partial wake, cpu, network, gps, sensor. Just "Other".
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
Spareparts will tell you what is keeping your phone awake. Use the drop down menu and change "other usage" to "partial wake". Click on the app listed first and see how long it has been doing that. And make sure you are checking what you want to see since boot, for all time, since unplugged.

Nope. All he said was that it was rumored sprint was trying to get an exclusive first release of it, which would have to make it damn soon considering the nexus s ships stock with it soon.
[EVO 4G Android Development] supdawg:
Thanks for the explanation, but when I click on partial wake, the top most item is UID 100200, and it's a very small bar. Maybe a mm or so in length. And its the largest one on that chart. :/
[EVO 4G Android Development] cirehawk:
Can you configure it with rosie settings as you currently can? :) Thanks for your continued efforts.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bmtx16:
Ah, so basically the S is the only one that should have the stablest build so far since it ships to the public soon. Hmmm. . I'm sure if Toast or Cyanogen or Myn get a hold of the OTA we'll finally have our Gingerbread. It just better be soon >:|
[EVO 4G Android Development] squick:
Kick Butt!!! This thing is awesome! Been running bout a week. I have a friend with an Evo on Metro. Will this ROM work for him and still have everything working?

I'm having practically the same exact problem you're having... it's really annoying. My phone today was doing great on battery, then all of a sudden around 50% my phone seemed to not be going to sleep and my battery died down very quick.
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:


Do you use 4g? If so, then that could be it. There has been a lot of talk about it over the last hundred or so posts. It is a glitch with HTC. Once you toggle 4g on, then off again, the phone holds a wake lock until you reboot. It's from the wimax radio continually scanning, or something like that. Download alogcat from the market (free), and see I'd it shows a bunch of errors, in red, about wimax. If so, there's your issue. If you don't use 4g, its less likely, unless you have a 4g widget, which can turn 4g on on bootup.
[EVO 4G Android Development] billyapd21:
Well everyone is so concerned with what kernel they are running but I guess nobody cares what cellular radio version they have. I'm currently running version EVO_Radio_2.15.00.07.28 and wanted to know if everyone is using this one or the newer version EVO_Radio_2.15.00.09.01? Also does it matter what hardware version your evo is?

myn, I wanted to try the new Gingerbread launcher so I did a nandroid and then flashed the zip. Thought the animations were nice, but wanted to go back to what I had. Rebooted into recovery and restored the nandroid. When it's flashing it says sd-ext.img not found. It finishes and when I reboot, it just gets stuck on the white htc EVO 4G white screen.

Any ideas on what might have gone wrong or what I can do?

EDIT: Tried restoring earlier nandroids and it's giving me the same message. "Cannot find sd-ext.img. Skipping restore of sd-ext. Restore complete!"

What am I supposed to do if I can't fix this at all? Go into recovery and go to factory reset or something? Fun times.
[EVO 4G Android Development] supdawg:
I didnt see many or any wimax red text. There was quite a few regarding weatherclock.

[EVO 4G Android Development] philburkhardt:
The advantage for me is space. I have 75 games on my phone, some of them fairly large. I also have a lot of system apps and apps for connecting to manipulating my home network. Before apps2sd I would have to uninstall apps I liked, just to try new ones.

Setting up apps2sd went pretty smooth for me. I think part of the issue that the instructions everyone is using are technically starting before you flash the ROM. All I did was:

1)Empty my SD card on to my PC

2)Used Am on Ra to partition the card (you can set this to whatever you want, but I think setting the swap to anything over 512 is overkill. I set my ext to 3gb, but that's just me)

3)Go back to the main recovery menu

4)Go to Wipe and wipe data/factory reset, then wipe cache, then wipe Dalvik-cache, then wipe SD:ext partition, whew you're done wiping now!

5)Reboot your phone

6)From Terminal Emulator type: a2sd check, now look through your settings to see if Dalvik is running from the SD, if not type: a2sd cachesd, the phone will reboot.

7)I looked in Titanium to see the partitions, should be on your overview screen

That's how I did it, and it's working like a charm. I think my phone is actually running faster with it.

I hope that helps a little.

Cant make this for the sense users huh? I really enjoy all ur modifications in sense and using launcher wont let me take advantage of them. Just a question.

Hmm, I don't know what that means. What clock/weather widget do you use.
[EVO 4G Android Development] iTouch24:
so we just flash this over our current myn ROM?

do we need to wipe and restore phone to factory prior to flash?

is this just a launcher or a whole gingerbread rom?

will we loose current lockscreen,dialpad, battery setup?
[EVO 4G Android Development] cb7tuner93:
BRO!!!! I had no idea about this AWESOME thanks!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ncfastls1:
Tried out the gingerbread launcher but I didn't really like it to be honest. Actually seemed a bit slower opening the app drawer than with themed Sense, and I couldn't use any of my Sense widgets. So I'll be sticking with Sense for now...but thank you Myn for letting us try it out!
[EVO 4G Android Development] DJZager:
Yeah, I'm excited for RLS 2. Out of curiousity, I've been working on changing all of the green accents in the notification bar and themed widgets to red. Is there any interest in that at all?

I have been slowly putting it together, just wondering if there is an interest there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gedster314:
Calkin's was my previous favorite. I like this one for the battery life with the stock kernel. The fastest rom I ever tried was Cyanogen 6 with the snap kernel mod installed. The quadrant scores were well into the 1300s but it was still to buggy for me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] supchaka:
You know I started using this rom the day it came out, I've flashed some others but by the end of the night I have this one back on it. I've had zero problems with it really.

UNTIL...

I got a replacement phone from Sprint today, rooted it the same way, loaded everything from scratch just the same. And its just buggy and quirky now for me. I had a hell of a time getting a different keyboard to load and take. I have a folder on a home screen that wouldnt re-open without a reboot. I tried to add a weather widget and the final step would just present me with a dim screen and no widget. It skips and hiccups throughout now. Weeeird stuff ehh. The only thing I hadnt redone with this phone yet was reload the stock fonts. Oh and Im running bfs9 btw.

And to top it all off, what they sent me the new phone for wasnt even resolved! I'm going to try another wipe and start again with my fingers crossed. Like I said, on my other phone it worked flawlessly, and battery life was fantastic.

Update: Ok you know I didnt even realize when I loaded this the first time on the new phone I didnt get the blurry wallpaper he has in it, so somehow I left something behind. I flashed my first one through rom manager and set it to wipe there. The first time on the new phone I did it manually through recovery, and "thought" I had wiped everything. So just now I flashed it through rom manager again and it looks like it may have done the trick so far. Havent seen a quirk yet, still have some reloading to do.

So like everyone says wipe, wipe and wipe again!
[EVO 4G Android Development] kluster1999:
It seems that manup mods always decreases battery life in every rom I try it on. I love the mod, but it makes me wonder.

Last month I was running stock rooted rom with great battery life. I didnt change a thing except I flashed the manup mod, and the battery started draining really fast.

Anyone else notice this?

[EVO 4G Android Development] myn:
Thanks man :). Looks like there are plenty of ex-voguers on the EVO now :) good to see.

Very very strange. Glad to see this is working for you now though.

Thanks for posting :)

Anyone done much theming on the EVO HTC_IME? I'd love to see this resembling the HTC_IME mod, blacked out with the white and green text ;)

Absolutely. I've actually thought about doing the same. If you get her done or need some help let me know. I'll even throw it on RomManager as an optional download if you want.
[EVO 4G Android Development] eman3316@optonline.net:
Question about Rom Manager. I thought the only way to update Roms and other things through Rom manager is if you are using Clockworks recovery.

I know most people do not use Clockworks because of issues and use RA recovery? Is there a way to update things while on RA recovery through Rom manager that I am missing?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vegito168:
Hey guys, I apologize if this has already been covered. But is anyone having issues with sending text messages? I get this error "Radio Interface Resource Shortage, Cause Code: 64, Error Class: 2." I just moved over to Sprint from from my US T-Mobile Nexus One yesterday. Any help is much appreciated. I have tried both radios, the newest 2.15.00.09 and the 2.15.00.07 and no go either way.

*EDIT*

I just wiped and re-flahed and now I just got a different error. This one says something about unable to send message, try again later. Cause code: 97, Error code: 2.

***EDIT***

Problem resolved! LMAO!

Just had to upgrade the voice mail like it told me to in the status bar. (Doesn't help when you just dismiss it and try to use the phone anyway.) LMAO!

That's what happen when you are a noob (like me) to Sprint and root their phone.
