Awesome ROM. Love it. Everything works... cant test the 4G but I dont have 4G where I'm at. One question. Is there a way to install SOME of the apps that were taken out instead of installing back all of them? I'm sorry if this is a noob question... I am a noob afterall. Spefically, teether and not Sprint Nascar!

PS: Someone direct me to the right thread on kernel changing/flashing. Wireless tethering is not working and I read that you need a kernel with something or another.

Contacts sync - solved

Hey guys. Found this in Android Central.

I know some suggested clearing the cache but when I did it, nothing happened so I tried this.

First, press menu and go to "settings" - click on "Accounts & snyc" - uncheck "background sync" - now use your back key to get back to the screen where you saw "Accounts & snyc" and then click on "Applications"

Locate "Contacts Storage" - if you can't find "Contacts Storage", click menu again and select filter, then select all - open the "Contact Storage" and click "clear data" of "Contacts Storage"

Get back to the first step above and recheck "background snyc" - it will start to snyc and take anywhere from 2 minutes to 15 minutes

If you have problems with "calendar" and "gmail" do the same steps above to for "Calendar Storage" and "Gmail Storage"

Worked like a charm.
[EVO 4G Android Development] iknowsquat:
I dont believe it's the kernel.

I cant get Wireless Tether to go either. A special, modded kernel is not needed.

I tired the Pre-9 version of Tether vs the cooked in one and it was a no go as well.

I also tired a different kernel.

ricsim- is it working for you?

Oh-and thanks for the mention in the change log for the next version :)

I would also recommend the 5 app per row in the app drawer mod.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kolosus:
How do I get 5 app per row? A little more hand holding please.
[EVO 4G Android Development] GuAcHi:
thanx for this rom.. Its actually one of my faves so far..

ps: the wallpapers are sick.. im actually gonna get one of em tattooed on my forearm not sure which one yet.. its between the 1 with the moon.. the reaper/angel lol and1 you used for the bootscreen.. the angel/reaper with the sword.. thanx for the idea. was actually lookin for somethin 2 finish up my arm and thats it
[EVO 4G Android Development] iknowsquat:
I thought it was a stand alone mod but I cant find it atm.

I know Virus has it as a flashable zip for his ROMs but it is not compatible with Azrael...trust me ;)

Hopefully ricsim can work his magic and work it into 2.2 if he deems it a ROM-worthy addition.

BTW-as a temp fix for tethering Calk does have a USB tethering mod that allows wired tethering-I know apps like PDA net do this but this will enable the native USB tether sans an addtional app:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=785271

It works great with Azrael. The initial network identification does take a little time for me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Sorry for the late response, was a bit busy today.

Wireless tethering works perfectly for me using the stock kernel and King's kernel #11 CFS. Why yours is not working I have (unfortunately) no idea. I wish I could say more but I know it is also working for other people.

Are you for sure using the "Wireless tether" selection when you connect to your computer. I know it works because I am using it to send you this message :)

If you have HTC sync, try uninstalling that and see if you have the right driver working. If not, maybe look up "froyo wireless tethering problems" with Google (or XDA itself) and see what you can come up with. I will do some more investigating on this matter.

Yeah, Virus ROM is based on DC so it probably would not work for this (the 5 icon-per-row Rosie you speak of). I will look into it, not sure if it is something I would personally want but I will try and at least make it an option for people.

I may take some more time on the next version instead of releasing a new version every couple of weeks. I am trying to learn a but more about the fundamentals (kernels, boot images, the init.rc and init.d relationship, scripts, the more advanced stuff in other words). I feel this ROM is still young yet and I know the more I work on it, the better it will be when I am ready to release it.

I will try and release at least test version before the end of the month but we will see what happens ;) Maybe it will be out soon but I know almost all the feedback on this ROM has been favorable and I am glad to hear that. I think it hangs in there well with what is out there and I hope to make the next version even better.

Not bad for someone who started not even a month ago with ROM making IMO. :p
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
So far, here is my progress on Azrael 2.2:

Working:

(using new version 1.01 of dsixda's ROM kitchen)

-Dark Tremor Apps2SD updated to latest version

-Took out all theme features so theme options are available (will have my own version of the themes that do not have wallpapers to over-write mine)

-Updated most apps

-Windows transitions working. Looks cool :cool:

-Changed ROM base (still OTA but more updated than Myn's)

-More wallpapers added

-EPST downgraded so all ## codes work (sound familar iknowsquat? :))

-Tested: Faster and more polished, linpack went up a few points (nothing drastic)

Still to-do:

-All apps updated

-Theme work incomplete (done: Manup, Matted Blues)

-More mod options so you can add what you want

-Bit more cleaning to do

-Work on "Director's Cut edition"

-More custom ringtones and notification sounds

-Thorough testing

-Boot animation tweaked a bit and updated for version 2.2

-Other odds, ends

So yeah, I am about half done with it. I plan on finishing before the 21st and then I may hand pick a few people to test the newest version before I release it fully (No donation required lol).

In the mean time, keep giving me ideas if you want and we will see what I can cook up!
[EVO 4G Android Development] iknowsquat:
Wireless tehter-thanks for the confirmation, gotta be on my end then. I hadnt tested it upon initial flash and since another user was having the issue I wanted your confirmation so I knew how to proceed.

I'm well versed in the option as I've been using that great feature from the get-go. I've been through numerous versions of the app and multiple ROM/Kernel/tether combos.

I love troubleshooting :)

Since you confirmed it's working and I have a nand I will do a fresh install and start there.

Dont spend more than a minute on the 5 row drawer-completely cosmetic imo, just kind a cool.

Your ROM-it rocks! You deserve major kudos regardless of experience but that it's your maiden voyage make it just that much more killer!!

LOL! Muy bien!!

EDIT: Update--tethering will not work upon initial install. Clean install, wiped everything. Nada. The included version would not connect at all. I tried the Pre9 and the Pre11 versions and while those at least show a connection there is no internet access.

Like I stated earlier-I've tethered on multiple ROMs, dunno what the issue is but I'm on it!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
First off, thank you again for the compliments and I am glad you like it, I love it personally because I made my own dream ROM into a reality. It is satisfying to not only have that, the hear others are using it and liking it as well.

For the wireless tethering, I really don't use it but it works on mine and I am running the same ROM (switch to next version to test and then go back). I also have had other people say it works on theirs with my ROM. I tested it before I released the ROM (was even working on Azrael 2.0) and tested it today to make sure and I used it to send that message.

I am not sure what the problem is, I will look into it for sure and if anyone besides me and iknowsquat want to look into it and help "cure the problem" please feel free and I will issue a fix immediately. I will take a look at it tomorrow and hopefully find a fix, if not Sunday for sure it will be working and the fix (if there is one) will also be incorporated into Azrael 2.2.

For now, I can attest it is working and others have said theirs is as well. Rather odd but I am sure I will be able to get it ironed out, especially with help.

@iknowsquat Have you ever tried it before? Did it stop working or you used it for the first time and it won't work for you? That is a good thing to ask.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
For wireless tethering, please read HERE it is the official FAQ page and has some troubleshooting steps.

Apparently tethering on Windows 7 has some problems with Intel network cards. Apparently a driver update can solve the issue.

That is one thing to look at. I will throw that out there and hopefully get us off to the right foot so it works for everyone, not just most or half.

I have a Marvell Yukon network card (x2) built into my on P6T Deluxe motherboard and it works for me.

Anyone having problems with Wireless tethering should check this out, regardless of ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] iknowsquat:
I had not tried it until today but gave it a shot after reading the post from the other user that was having issues as well.

Then since I had not wiped but just installed 2.1 over 2.0 I decided to try a complete, fresh install of 2.1. I didnt set up the ROM at all. The only thing I did was link my gmail for Market access and tether did not work then either.

My searches have not turned up anything yet.

I tried it on a Virus ROM Beta I have and tether works-it is the Pre8 version. I know it's probably a different base so not an apples-to-apples comparo.

I tried Pre8 on Azrael but no go-same issue-"No internet access"

This is very weird....it works for you and others but not for me and at least one other user.

I'll keep going. Thanks for your time and effort.

EDIT-thanks Bro, I found that post but as I've never had issues before I kept looking, I'll give it a shot.

EDIT-not surprisingly the driver update didnt help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Ok, well here is what just happened when I tried running Wireless Tether.

I ran the Wireless tether program, it asked for super-user access. I clicked yes, and then I hit click to start tethering and it worked right away.

Here are some things to try...

-Make a Nandroid first (Amon RA only because it is the only recovery that works 100% and backs up WIMAX Portion) and update your Radios (NV and Pri while you are at it)

-Did you accidentally block it using Super User? Go to Super User and make sure it is given permission. Also make sure Super User is updated to the latest and that you are using the latest binary as well.

-Did you hit menu then go to Setup and set it up correctly?

-Do you have access control on?

You may have to mess with the program itself to make it work but I am using it again to send this message so I can confirm it works and works very well for me.

IMO sounds like you may need to adjust settings because it has always worked for me with no problem.

Wireless tethering not working

Hi I am new here. I just want to report my experience and try to get some help for wireless tethering.

I just bought my sprint HTC Evo from another person, who rooted the phone and had wireless tethering working flawlessly. Then he rebooted the phone after he sold it to me. Now I have problem for wireless tethering.

Here is my phone software information:

Android version: 2.2

Baseband Version: 2.15.00.09.01

Kernel version:2.6.32.15.gezfb08e htc-kernel@and18-2#11

Build number: 3.29.651.5 CL252548 release keys

Software number: Azrael v2.1 by rick simon

Brower version: webkit3.1

PRI Version: 1.77-003

PRL version:60671

Wireless tethering: 2.0.2

Super user: most recent

When I turned on tethering, my laptop takes very long to connect, but it was not able to connect to the wireless network (sometimes showed connected, but actually not connected as I couldn't browse website)

Sorry I just switched from WM 6.5 to android, still new to this. Could you tell me how to make tethering working? Is my phone still rooted based on the software information from the system?

Thanks!

[EVO 4G Android Development] iknowsquat:
Thanks for continuing to put your brain on it. While I am fully capable of effin things up I think I'm safe on this one ;)

I have used the program without fail numerous times-with/without access control, with/without wifi encryption.

I can jump to another ROM right now and use the program so its not the radios.

I have played with all the parameters within the program while on Azrael without success.

Like I stated earlier-the included version will not connect at all. Other versions-namely Pre8, Pre9, and Pre11 all connect and show my laptops address as connected but will not/can not connect to the net.

I will continue to enjoy the ROM and try to figure out the tether issue. Your time and effort is greatly appreciated.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Which kernel do you happen to be using with my ROM? Apparently a netfilter-enabled kernel must be used?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Haha, I figured out what all of you are talking about. That is part of the custom transition animations.

I guess I don't pay a lot of attention to it, but there is nothing "wrong". That is the flip animation at work.

It is supposed to look like the screen is coming in and then flipping itself.

If you do not like it, tomorrow I will be posting ways to change it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] starkillers:
This ROM is awesome, thanks for your work. I know you said you would be posting a way to change the transitions. I am not a huge fan of all the crazy transitions and would like to know if you will be providing a way to make all the transitions back to stock ones. I tried replacing the animations by going in to your rom with 7zip and replacing those with the stock ones and then flashing your rom. It did stop the lock screen from flipping for the split second but it did not stop the animations in the programs.

Thanks again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Haha, my ROM must not be too bad. I have a few people asking me to use it as a base and a few out there now using it.

Azrael is going to be going through a lot of changes in the next week. Sunday I begin work on it and will let you know when I am ready to release it.

I promise it will be the best version ever. I want my ROM to appeal to a much wider base and keep evolving. I also will be starting work on another ROM soon.

Some love the stuff, some want stuff changed. I want to make it more modular so people can use it as they want.

Now that my ROM is being used as a base for some other ROMS, I know it is a solid foundation. Now to add some more finishing touches :)

You know me, I will keep you posted but you are all awesome and make me want to keep improving this and make it better and better for all of you.

Whatever comes in the future, thank you all for keeping me going and I appreciated all those who support me.

Rick aka ricsim78
[EVO 4G Android Development] starkillers:
Rick the rom is great make no mistake about it... The crazy transitions however are too much for my old eyes...lol I am itching to put this back on now!! any suggestions as how to get stock transitions back ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Flash the file attached to the bottom of the first post called "Stock_transitions-signed" and it will return the stock transition animations. Do this if you prefer or you do not like the upside down clock when you wake your phone up.

I tested it and it works perfectly. Returned my animations to stock. Enjoy!

Internal Memory

First of all I would like to say this ROM is great. I have one question about the internal memory. When I first flashed the ROM and kernel my memory was up to 410MB after installing a few apps it dropped to 363MB, now I've noticed it dropped a little more now it's at 342MB. I was under the impression that this ROM had app2sd (any and every app would install directly on the SD)...if it does do I have to activate it? and if so how? THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR WORK...

Super slick rom, awesome work on this one. I coupled your rom with the ziggy471 kernel and hit over 1600 quadrant scores, but I am getting com.htc.bgp fc's.

Maybe we're discussing different animations?

Starting in 2.4 I believe, the animation starts out with an eyeball & proceeds to change.. where as the earlier version simply presented the cloaked figure?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Ahh, you mean the boot animation.

Stay tuned for that. More coming soon :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] iknowsquat:
Not quite, the ROM comes with App 2 SD by Sam Lu. You are looking for apps2sd by Darktremor. The included app works with the native Froyo app move and helps you move the apps which are written to be moved by the developer. IMHO the name should really be changed by Mr Lu to avoid so much confusion.

ricsim has stated (and I concur) that the Darktremor version can cause issues making it not Azrael-worthy ;)

Netarchy is da Man! However IMO the kernel needs to match the device more than the ROM. It is definitely worth a look, no doubt.

Quad scores aren't everything but I get 1500+ with Ziggy's kernel.

boot animations question

Hi Rick, this Rom is fantastic, loving it. And thank you for the stock animations. My question is how can we install a custom boot animation on your rom? My kids love the dancing android and the haters animation that are up in the theme section however when i try and push through adb or replace in root explorer when the phone reboots it shows the htc splash and then black screen where the animation should play. Is it not possible to mod the boot animation? Thanks so much
[EVO 4G Android Development] iknowsquat:
Boot into Recovery and flash it like a ROM, no wipe.
[EVO 4G Android Development] starkillers:
will that work even if it doesn't say flashable zip? It's in the themes section
[EVO 4G Android Development] iknowsquat:
Yes, most bootanimations ARE flashable even if it doesnt say it.

Worst case scenario is you'd get an error telling you it couldnt be applied.
[EVO 4G Android Development] starkillers:
sweet, thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
download your boot animation of choice and sound and rename them both to the following names within the quotes, and copy them to the tools location from your SDK install

"bootanimation.zip - boot animation" (duh!)

"SPC_animation_final.mp3" - audio

adb remount

adb push bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource

adb push SPC_animation_final.mp3 /system/customize/resource

adb shell reboot
[EVO 4G Android Development] starkillers:
Is this done while phone is on or in recovery?
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
you can do this with the phone "on" i think shortly after the phone starts to boot you have access to ADB, but you for sure can do this while phone is on and working etc
[EVO 4G Android Development] starkillers:
will try this when I get to my laptop
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
you could possibly do it from your phone with a terminal app i believe, but if you feel more comfortable, thats the way i push my boot animation and sound (droid eye and "DROID" sound)
