[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robroy90:
Greetings,

I searched on this, but could not find an answer:

The 3.29 update I performed (over stock 3.26) has apparently screwed up my 4G. It will scan, connect for a second, drop immediately, scan and so on...

Prior to the 3.29 I did a full nandroid backup, but I did it with Clockwork because that was what was installed by Unrevoked. I am just now learning that apparently AmonRA is the way to go?

I ask because after I discovered that my 4G was borked, I first tried to do a full restore using my nandroid backup I did of 3.26 prior to trying the update. The restore of the 3.26 nandroid was successful, but I noticed that I still had a PRI of 1.77, and the 4G still would not connect.

Is it true that clockwork does not correctly back up your wimax certs? Even if that is probably true, where is the procedure detailed to convert your wimax cert info into an image you can flash in an attempt to recover your 4G connectivity?

After spending hours on the phone haggling with Sprint, learning my local repair store does not have any replacements in stock, they FINALLY agreed to ship me an advanced exchange when I went through business care.

So, in the meantime while I wait for the replacement to arrive, what can I try to do with the Clockwork/Nandroid backup I have prior to the 3.29 update to see if I can't get it going after all?

If I can't, what is safest procedure to follow with the replacement unit? All I want is a stock 3.29 that is rooted and has working 4G. What root method should I use? How can I safely replace Clockwork with AmonRA?

Sorry for all the questions, I am just frustrated and stuck at the moment.

Thanks in advance,

-Rob
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noxious Ninja:
Clockwork doesn't backup WiMAX at all. Only Amon RA 1.8 does. So if all you have is a Clockworkmod backup, you're hosed.

Did you try reverting to PRI 1.34 to see if that fixes your issue?

Easiest root method for new phones right now is Unrevoked 3.21. It should be just as safe as the long manual method. After rooting, you can grab Amon RA 1.8.0 here.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robroy90:
Thanks for the info!

Ninja,

Thanks for the info. I haven't tried 1.34, but with a new phone on the way, I am not sure I am going to bother unless I get bored.

I am pretty sure UnRevoked will install Clockwork, so how do I go about safely replacing Clockwork with AmonRA? Do I just flash right over the top?

Thanks, just wasn't sure about that part.

I just downloaded rom manager. It had an option to install RA and did a back up that way.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noxious Ninja:
Yeah, that's what I did.

Hey, I see it has 1.8.0 now. That would be the simplest way to install it, then.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
As the tittle says

Do you find the Vibrator servo weak or strong enough?

Personally i find it a bit weak compared to my older phones

When it vibrates unless i'm next to it, i wont even hear/feel it

if i leave it at the coffee table, and i'm working at the room next door, no doors, i wont even know a phone or message came through.

Speakers are super good, i can be on the far end of the house/office, and still hear it from the other end
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailerr:
I am fairly sure you are not intended to hear the motor, its supposed to be for silent alerts in your pocket. I realise most are audible but pretty sure it is not the actual idea.

Feel it though, yeah I find it pretty strong when it is actually receiving a call on my belt holder, not so much for haptic feedback. I think it feels quite "tight" compared to previous phones too, it really seems to be sharp start and finish motor wise and I can only really refer to the feeling as "bouncy" which I quite like.

There are of course stronger ones out there, but this is a pretty slim phone.

The loudspeaker though I am seriously disappointed by, it is ok when open but I can nearly silence it with a single finger over the opening on the case, so when it is in a pocket outside I find it to be pretty useless. It is also easily muffled if left ontop of a slightly soft surface.

The Motorola Milestone was super loud by comparison, and the audio quality of the Milestone was simply superior in all cases - I miss that aspect. Apparently a lot of Droid owners had audio problems but I think that was less of a case with the Euro firmware.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
no, i was not refering to loud "motor" rather when the vibration shakes the phone and it rattles on the desk, it doesn't rattle loud enough.

compared to Treos or BlackBerries i've used in the past
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nailerr:
I realised but I think did not reply very well. I just can't think of a better term than tight for the motor though, it seems to be quick and sharp which I feel against my skin quite easily but is perhaps too quick to allow for much up/down motion against a hard surface. It sort of feels more like a buzzing of an electric shaver to me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
yeah, exactly that's how it feels and sounds when placed on a table

it doesn't produce enough vibration to make a noticeable sound
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glumardok:
Dear All!

I have reported already that I have some problems with my phone to install new apps and to update certain others. First of all, I set back the command installLocation to "0" - this has apparently helped to install new apps. However, this did not solve the update issue. Apps which have been shifted to the SD card need to be moved back to the internal storage before an update can be led successfully. Today, for the first time, I got a failure notice: "Installation failure -18". Does this information help in order to resolve the issue? Any ideas?

Kind regards,

Glumardok

It got Gizmodo's bronze medal for Android weather apps, but it supposedly isn't in the Market. Has anyone used it? Why don't they put it in the Market?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Quick2822:
It actually is a nice application but they use a crappy weather service to pull their data. If I remember, it's not even US based and the closest weather station was south of me.

Well, the version I tried a month or two ago did anyway.

WeatherBug Elite is all I need.

[HD Mini General] rhaaalovely:
I'm having trouble with the bluetooth connection with my Audi A4 (brand new): frequently (at least once per trip) the connection is lost even though most of the time I can restart it manually.

I've read the whole "Bluetooth Car Connectrion" thread (can't post links - xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=583570) and tried all the solutions that are proposed, but without success until now...

Do you know if there is a specific problem (and solution) with the HD Mini and/or with the Audi A4?

FYI the solutions I tried:

1. Modify the HandsFree plug-in:

HKLM\Software\WIDCOMM\Plugin\HandsFree

i. Change SupportedFeatures to 1085 (changes to 1081 after reset and I cannot terminate any call with this value!!)

ii. Add value HFBDA binary, set to same value as LastConnectedBda

iii. Add value HFDeviceType DWORD decimal 2

2. Modify the WIDCOMM bluetooth general settings:

HKLM\Software\WIDCOMM\BtConfig\General

i. Change bdaddr to (no value)

ii. Change DisableReopenAudio to 0 (default is 1)

3. Change Registry setting to your HD2\Leo phone:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Sys

Add new DWORD setting called "COD" with decimal value "5374476" (Don't add the quotes).

This makes devices see the HD2 as a 'Normal' phone.

4. Navigate to HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\

Click "Values" soft-key

Change "00001001" value to 1 (decimal) (recovery note: default is 2)

Change "00001005" value to 40 (decimal) (recovery note: default is 16)

The only thing I haven't tried so far is to use jetware mobile. Do you think it's a working solution?

Thanks!

Hi, I would like to De-Odex the rom I currently have on my phone.

Is there an easy way to do this?

I've read:

and

http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/droid-x-themes/4620-how-manually-deodex-your-phone.html (there is also a post about this on here)

The xUltimate tool will not work for me, so I need another option.

Phone: HTC Evo

ROM: Stock 3.29 OTA

Rooted (ofc)

Thanks for the help.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMagicalSock:
Sorry if this is no help, but a deodexed version of the 3.29 OTA is posted somewhere in the dev section. Is there a particular reason why you want to deodex it yourself?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xNotta:
I've been switching between roms but I keep coming back to my original stock one. It's still odex'd and I would like to theme the battery icon on the status bar without having to set everything back up on a fresh rom. Since it reads half when 80% of my battery is remaining.

Thanks for the quick response.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max_Pain:
and you said this didnt work for you?

i didnt even know you could deodex your own rom!

going to try this soon!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xNotta:
It wasn't that it didn't work.

I just got an error with Java, not sure how to fix it. Some said to re install java, but i've installed JRE and JDK from 5u20 to 6u21 (32 and 64 bit). Everything I tried gave the same error.

I am going to try asking on their forum and see if they can tell me what I did wrong.

I have a feeling it has to do with the 3.29 OTA update. :-/

Good luck and if you get it to work please let me know your setup.

and if you can't run step 3 let me know... that way I am not the only one to seem that crazy. :P

option 1 and 2 just adb pulls your /system/apps and your framework.

Were you able to get it DeOdexed?

I found this after some searching... It seems to be the LONG way to deodex an apk. It was written in 2009 so idk how reliable it will be.

http://androidnetwork.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=55

Edit: Link to Avabox: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=697459

[UPDATE] I tried Avabox and it de-odexed all of the files that I adb pulled. I copied the De-Odexed files back to their respective folder on the /system/, and deleted "rm /system/app/*.odex" (Removing all the .odex files) and rebooted.

I got stuck on the white "HTC Evo 4G" screen and could not get passed it.

I am not sure what I messed up. Maybe I need to resign the files? I'll try that tomorrow.

Let me know how your attempt went. :]
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max_Pain:
When I left for school I left the script deodexing my app folder...it seems to have done the job and there were no errors. It's doing the process for the framework files now.

Once I move it over to the phone we 'll see if it worked...

I'll update here when I find out...

Swyped from an HTC Evo on MetroPCS...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max_Pain:
i just tried that too and i got stock in a bootloop.

the avabox script does deodex all the app files. it doesn't do that for the framework files...it seems it'll only deodex .apk files.

anyways, i deleted everything from my /system/app folder and then pushed over the deodexed apks...i also did this for the two apk files from system/framework and the phone did the bootloop thing. so i put back the original /system/framework files, effectively only leaving changed the contents of /framework/app/ and still, bootlooping.

i'm restoring right now...i'll try it some more at another time.

let me know if you figure it out!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xNotta:
I was reading some of the comments on this thread(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=598026) They we're saying about problems with de-odexing the framework.

Do we need to resign system apps before we push them back?

I am optimizing my apks now, going to batch resign then try putting just the apks back on.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xNotta:
Unfortunately, I still don't have any good news. :[

I tried resigning the de-odexed apk's and replacing the ones on my phone.

This got stuck at the white HTC Evo 4G screen.

This failed

Then I optimized, signed, and zipaligned.

This threw me into an actual boot loop. (I was excited... It's the first boot loop i've gotten.)

This failed.

Here is some semi-less-bad news.

I used http://circle.glx.nl/ to make a flashable update.zip for theme-ing. I Flashed it with success and was able to get to the lock screen. Sense UI along with just about every other system app kept force closing.

But I was able to successfully (even though I got FC's) theme and boot using that kitchen.

I am going to mess around with the different settings there and see if I can atleast theme my phone.

Any luck with your attempts?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max_Pain:
i was at school all day - no news from me. this is very discouraging though.

i'm surprised nobody else has chimed in! considering how many people are making and releasing roms, some people must know what's going on here:confused:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xNotta:
Good news (kinda)

I was able to theme my framework-res.apk without any errors or FC's.

I didn't do anything to De-Odex it but it accepted the theme when I manually edited it.

There must be an xml that scripts how the battery is displaying %'s

since I have 89% of my battery remaining but the themed battery is showing 80%.

I'll dig around and see where it is and add it to my next framework recompile.

We're you interested in just themeing or the whole de-odexing (apps & framework)

If you want to theme it i'll write up a decent tutorial on what I did.

If not I'll write up a quick tutorial for the next root newbie who wants to theme.

Going to test run it and make sure I didn't mess much up.

Edit3: The bad, it would appear that you can't modify the .xml's of the framework. You can only change the pictures.

So the battery wont be able to have the exact %.

Modifying of any .xml leads me to a boot loop.

Tips are appreciated on fixing this. :D

I'll keep trying.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max_Pain:
so here is what i've learned.

i had modified both .com.htc.resources and framework-res before. those files, at least in my rom, are not odexed. everything else in the framework folder is a mix of files, .jar files and other formats, including services.jar, which is odexed. that's why if we change the services.jar file, without the phone being deodexed, it wont work.

that's why i want to deodex my rom. i have too many changes already and dont want to re-do them in another, deodexed rom.

my main interest in deodexing the rom is to have the working battery percentage on top (which used to work on THIS rom before, without deodexing???) and to have a transparent notification tray.

and from there being able to make any other changes as they come up...

i'll see when i have some more time to try out other options, but chances are you will have time before me, so keep updating!:D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max_Pain:
i just tried very carefully to deodex only the .apks that had .odex files to them. that script will "deodex" apks that dont have .odex files attached to them. i had 28 apks that had no .odex and the app ran through them and the resulting apks had different file sizes than the original ones:confused:

anyways, after deodexing my app folder, i deleted everything in the folder, pushed the new apks in, wiped dalvik, and rebooted...and got back in a bootloop.

so no go at all unless we change something along the line...

found this to read into...

http://code.google.com/p/smali/wiki/DeodexInstructions

the baksmali that comes with the avabox is the old version which uses the deoxedarant....i'll try to see what i can do with these instructions, but see if you can get something working following those instructions:)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Max_Pain:

i'll keep on trying in the meantime but i think our best bet is to wait for avabox v3:rolleyes:
