[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silverslotcar:
Hey guys I am obivously a beginner, but I read the whole thread about the Froyo Cognition and didn't see a whole lot on this. My questions are as follows:

1) Can I flash Cog 2.2.4 straight over 2.1 with the JH7 update???

I updated to JH7 through the phone striaght from stock and since then I have only rooted and installed the One Click Lag Fix by RyanZA. Most of the posts I saw required many users to revert back to JF6 via Odin, but I wanted to know if I had to or not since I am still on 2.1. I know I will definitely want to uninstall the lag fix before trying to flash. Does anyone wanna chime in and help me out?? Tips or some good instructions for the process would be great!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] designgears:
Sure can..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ty080279:
nvrmind Dg says it best....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silverslotcar:
Okay, so someone with experience would say that if I reverted back to stock with Odin before flashing the Cog rom, I would run into less problems? And when I am uninstalling the lag fix I remove the actual lag fix and the ext2 files right??

Hi all! i'm so sick of the pale logo on the top left corner. :eek:Where can i dl a app with the colourful logo.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Robert's PDA:
Did you find one, if not I can post a cab for you.

[Fascinate General] GoogleAndroid:
I have a few issues with my Fascinate so I will be getting a new one tomorrow. So I have NOVA and Asphalt from Gameloft. I am pretty far along in them and I don't wanna lose my saves when I return them. If I save the Gameloft folder from my SD card and put it on the new one, will that restore my games saves when I re-install the games?
[Fascinate General] jonscapri:
Unfortunately no your saved game data won't save over to the new phone. If you root it you can use titanium backup to save the game and data from your downloaded apps, but then you would have to root the new phone to restore the saved data to the restored apps. Unless your already running froyo, but I'm not sure if it would restore the saved data from the apps.

Sorry to dash your hopes.
[Fascinate General] GoogleAndroid:
Are you sure? I've looked through it and it has the files for the levels I'm on.
[Fascinate General] tjthebest:
Im not sure about these games but when i played RoboDefense and then got a replacement phone but kept the same SD card, everything was still saved for me.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmarcus:
I'm reading good things about Vlingo as an in-car utility. Also read that it's Spring specific and supposedly available in the app market. I'm not seeing it, which I assume either means it got pulled or that rooted and rom'd devices can't see it.

Anyone have any direction to offer?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamerican413:
It is in the market. I just checked. Do a search and you should find two Vlingo apps.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrandonEnr7:
I just went into the market and click the Sprint tab at the top right and there it was as the very first item. I am rooted and am using OMJ's ROM.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skaorsk8:
Can you post it for those of us who don't have Sprint?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DraginMagik:
isn't it pretty much the same as google voice actions? except the google product doesn't have an option to update facebook.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmarcus:
Got it, thanks! Not sure why it wasn't showing up earlier.

Actually...now that I think about it, I may have searched the first time using App Brain and the second using Market.

In any event, thanks.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tachyon2601:
I was using Root Explorer and got a little carried away when I was deleting the bloat. Is there anyway I can get the stock calendar back? :confused: I also mistakenly deleted the alarm app as well. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trashcan:
just simply reflash your phone again. I am not sure if we are allowed to post .apk here.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tachyon2601:
anyway you could give me a step by step? I'm a newb with this stuff. I'm rooted and I have oclf applied.
[HD Mini General] rpunjabi:
Hi,

I have seen Chuky's ROM on HD2 and its awesome. Can some one help on getting the latest Android ROM on HD MINI.

Thanks....

Note: I know its a lot of work but can someone really do it here for us.
[HD Mini General] ganesh81289:
Android

Hi ,

Is there any ROM for Android , please do keep me posted

Thanks
[HD Mini General] Baz27:
This would be amazing, is it possible for our little Mini's?
[HD Mini General] xis123:
If you wanted Android you should've bought the HTC Aria. i coulda for the games :P
[HD Mini General] Jamapumo:
What if my company gives HD MINI and not Aria.

Besides, comments like "You should have bought an Android phone" can be missed in any forum. There's a question if it's possible to run Android on HD mini, not a question about what phone to buy.
[HD Mini General] Vitaya D.:
Once a while we always encounter with "short sighted" folks. Do not be serious! ;)
[HD Mini General] Hu_ever:
Ye, it's really a joke.

Even P4550 has its AND rom.

Mini, with it's twin brother Aria being AND, does not have And roms.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevz65:
Hi guys,

can anyone help me?

I originally did the old lag fix which required a memory card a while back with my 8GB MicroSD, but now I have a new 16GB MicroSD card which I would like to use, and my phone won't boot up if I put it in the new memory card(because of the lag fix)

What do I do?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevz65:
Ok now i put my old sd card back in, the phone boots but when it loads up i just have a black screen with every app just force closing including launcher pro. HELP!!!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davanw:
disable the lag fix!?
[G2 and Desire Z General] mobilegun:
not really a big deal, but.. why is the menu button 'mEnu'. perhaps the cost of capital E's was down that day they made the template?
[G2 and Desire Z General] borodin1:
Ha-ha.... I would've never noticed if you didn't say anything... but yeah, it looks weird.
[G2 and Desire Z General] rpmccormick:
Yeah, it sucks. And the stupid "chimney" on the home button pisses me off too. It looks more like a problem then design... like a line of the black part got scraped off.

...and the curvy arrow.

...and the cut in the magnifying glass.

Who ever designed those bottom buttons should be fired! Actually I take that back... whoever approved the design for those bottom buttons should be fired!!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] smasraum:
someone needs to switch to decaf...
[G2 and Desire Z General] mobilegun:
haha yeah.. the buttons are all kinda strange, now im looking at that chimney...

whats weird is i looked at an evo, and well it had mEnu also. seems... odd
[G2 and Desire Z General] atlp99:
mEnu

The capitol E on the mEnu button goes all the way back to the original mytouch. I never noticed it until a customer pointed it out on the huge in store poster right behind me. :)
[G2 and Desire Z General] CaliLove310:
haha, i've never would've noticed any of these things if you guys hadn't pointed them out. I actually like the curvy arrow, cut in the magnifying glass and the chimney. Only thing that looks weird, or out of place, is the mEnu button.
[G2 and Desire Z General] kalipedia:
The E has to be like that because the letters are cut outs and the lower case e would leave that little bit inside the semi-circle cut off and so it wouldn't work. I didn't notice this til this post and it was driving me a little nuts but now I think what I said is reasonable. I rather like it anyway.
[G2 and Desire Z General] acis:
I kept staring at the E. Probably spent a good hour in total trying to figure out what was off about it. Didn't even notice.
[G2 and Desire Z General] msmith1991:
Wow really?
[G2 and Desire Z General] thedarkpassenger:
Speaking of those buttons - does any one else have buttons that are slightly yellow in color?

Actually, my keyboard backlight seems to be a bit on the yellow side as well. Ill try to get pics

Sent from my T-Mobile G2
[G2 and Desire Z General] jashsu:
Damn you, curvy arrow! ::shakes fist::
[G2 and Desire Z General] cleentrax:
conscious design choice

It might be weird, but the mEnu capitalization is a conscious choice; an homage to the hTc logo.

I love my phone, but one of my least favorite things about it: The typography.

The T-Mobile logo is chrome on black. The four buttons are white/backlit on black. The Google logo is white on grey, and the hTc / G2 logos are cutouts on silver.

No consistency in sizing, fonts, colors or materials.

Of course, these are tiny details, and overall it's a wonderful device.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mgshute:
hTc.... makes sense
[G2 and Desire Z General] nivlac978:
I didn't notice it because it looks like how I write those letters. I make an uppercase m look like a big lower case m, same with the u.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Finland_2_Cupertino:
Get a hobby people. Please shut this down.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Bugattixda:
I rEally don't know what you'rE all talking about. Or is it just mE.
[G2 and Desire Z General] paco3346:
Yes, the whole reason I noticed the E was because it looked yellow while the m, nu, and the rest of the buttons were white.

Glad to know I'm not the only person who notices strange things like an E!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miragebg:
Hi,

I have a problem with my SGS. When I turn the option "Auto brightness" on, the phone wont change it's brightness automatically and depending of the ambient light conditions..It just stays at it's lowest setting.

I made a test of my proximity sensor and it's working fine, but won't react on auto brightness..

My ROM is JM8 with raspdeep OC/UV kernel with Voodoo b4 support..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Byr0x:
If you have Voodoo color installed auto brightness wont work afaik.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miragebg:
No , it's Voodoo without color fix included.

Anyway I just figured it out that it happens only when battery is under 5%. When plugged on charger everything seems to work as should.
[XPERIA X10 General] killerskincanoe:
So just last night i decided to dl some new music via my phone as 3g started working again at my house. I used MusicJunk to dl roughly 20 mp3s.

As they finished i would listen to yhem in mixing. Played no prob. As i was dling quite a few at a time i was only awake for the firsgt four that finished. Fell asleep and let my phone do the rest. In the morning i woke up to all my finished dls. Mayb one or two outa the bunch didnt play so i deleted them. Then outa no where it just refuses to play any of the new songs that i had just listened too! So i swittched over to mediascape and proceeded to get the "invalid liscence" error and also wouldnt play them. Im baffled how could it work one second and then not just a few seconds later.

No task killers or anti virus running.

So i reboot to see if that helps and lo n behold all the tracks i could see but not play just a min ago are completely gone! No trace on my sdcard. Except mixing still has playlists with the song titles. They dnt work tho say file not found. Wtf happened? Did mediascape delete my songs? And if so. Wth!

Any thoughts anyone?
[XPERIA X10 General] saketh321:
Happened to me before as well, but i have managed to attribute it to my SD card... tried to be stringy by getting one off of Ebay... hopefully tht is the problem with urs too
[XPERIA X10 General] alankstiyo:
sounds like the x10 had a better taste than you xD

well there's an option to let the x10 manage all the music even on your pc so maybe that's why
[XPERIA X10 General] killerskincanoe:
Well my sd card came with my x10 frm rogers. So i hope thats not it!

And no my pc isnt set to manage my music and it was never hooked to my pc so that couldnt be it. . .

Just dnt want this happening again. Anyone?

And since when did mediascape not allow u to play stuff w/o a liscence?!
[XPERIA X10 General] pngface:
Serves u right for getting music illegally :p
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thurst0530:
i have successfully rooted my evo and now need to back up using nandbackup or nandroid. can someone please give me advice on how to do this and also after that where to look for roms and how to install them. ive looked around only find info on how to root, not back up and different roms. thanks a lot
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bender1077:
Click these!

NANDROID

The NAND backup operation is performed in RECOVERY and is very easy to accomplish. AMON_RA and CLOCKWORK are the recoveries available for the EVO.

ROMS

This section of the forum contains the threads for ROMS. Read the OP for each and the dev has a TON of info for each ROM. Read through a ton of the thread before flashing, and search through the thread with any questions as any prob you encounter has probably already been addressed.

Let me know if you need any other info.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
For my new ROM please go HERE
[EVO 4G Android Development] brownmc77:
sounds good, any screenies?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Screenshots available soon. 10 char
[EVO 4G Android Development] jgalan14:
i think the first link redirects me to the wrong site

Edit: it works now, i have to go out but i'll flash it and give you feedback
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Yes, not sure how that happened but the link is fixed now. Sorry about that! Plus thank you for bringing that to my attention. It is bad when you cannot download the main file :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Sounds good, please do.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jgalan14:
Ok so far I like it I ma run some test in a bit but I do not like the battery icon, anyway to change it ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Well, without recooking it or using a theme (which would take out my wallpapers) no. Let me see if I can come up with a better solution. If not I will re-cook it with a different battery icon.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
EDIT: Replacement battery indicator included in the first post for anyone who does not like the circle battery indicator the ROM is cooked with.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jgalan14:
Yeah definitely the battery looks better in the room I flash it and the motivation tray went back to white, the font is really really good in the Rom , really nice
[EVO 4G Android Development] neonfreak20:
Wow, Awesome Rom.. Is there anyway you can host your Background Wallpaper??? I really like it ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
That is the font from the Manup theme, I like it too :)

I added a link to download a recovery flashable battery indicator (changes battery to smooth with percentage) in the first post. This way you can keep the stock circular one or switch it if you do not like it. Choice is good!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Thanks for the compliments and I am glad you like. There is 4 custom wallpapers included, I found them from Desktop Nexus and resized them to fit the Evo screen (960x800) using Paint.net for Windows 7.

You should also check out the custom ring tones and notifications!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jgalan14:
Yeah I like the notifications ringtones and the wallpaper lol sometimes I'm lazy and hate to look for them lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
That was how this ROM was born, I liked almost all of the ones on the board, but none had the ringtones, notifications, or wallpapers I wanted.

Problem solved! Glad to see it is working for everyone as well. I had no problems with this ROM, think it helps that it is based off the OTA and not a custom ROM.

I will keep this ROM updated. Future plans is to come up with a Sense removed, AOSP element version and add more customizations. I also need to update some of the apps (TB, to name one). I kept some of the stock Sprint stuff in just so no one had problems updating the Voicemail or other Sprint apps left in.

Please rate the thread and let me know if there is anything I should include, change, etc. etc.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jgalan14:
AOSP will be great too I'll keep looking at thread to see what else you'll offer
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Mirrors added. Also added some of Calkulin's mods for download.
[EVO 4G Android Development] beatblaster:
Oh I gotta try this one out :) Lemme see how the SouthSide represents in this piece!! I'll be back with feedback sometime over the weekend.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Sounds good man, hehe. Please let me know what you think and I hope you like this ROM.

I begin work on the next version of Azrael today, expect version 2.1 out soon, By Wednesday I should have it tested out and ready to go.

Known changes I am going to be making:

-all apps updated

-battery indicator changed to Smooth battery with percentage (far more useful than the one Azrael 2.0 is cooked with and so far the only complain heard about this ROM) *knock on wood*

-Another custom wallpaper or 3 thrown in for good measure :)

Whatever changes I make, I will of course note them in the release notes.

I also want to get some more theme options available, maybe modify some themes so they do not take out my custom wallpapers. That way you can make this ROM more how you want it to be as well.

I really hope everyone who tries this likes it, I know I am up there with some really good ROM makers here that have far more reputation, but so far everything has been positive and I hope that at least a few people find my work useful.

Lastly, I am glad to offer another ROM option and give back to a community that has given me much.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Probably a few people trying to get it now, which is causing that. I will post mirrors soon. Rapidshare was giving me problems for some reason so need to find a new backup home for these.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Apparently I picked the wrong day to upload this.

First Megaupload let me upload all 4 files (ROM and 3 themes), yet even though I was logged in, it did not link them to my account.

Then Rapidshare let me upload each file, taking all that time and then gave me "Failed". Failed = /fail

I am going to put it on Zshare as well and I linked the files to my account, could be why people could not download them. Sorry for the trouble. File sharing sites can be a headache at times! :(

Edit: Links updated.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Helton566:
I was able to get it from mega upload about 7pm est. So far so good but I will follow up tomorrow. I couldn't d/l the theme so that will wait until I test the Rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Helton566:
One question. Does it have a stock kernel?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jgalan14:
yes it does
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Zshare mirrors up for the ROM and all three themes. Any problems downloading from the main link, please try Zshare. I'll try getting more mirrors setup tonight or possibly tomorrow.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jgalan14:
The theme work but the notifications bars didn't change any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] angel9190:
Is there an advantage of having more internal memory? I see in the op that its 402mb after wiping . I know that is used to install apps but does it also allow the phone to run more efficient as well ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Yes and no. It can definitely help if you have a lot of apps installed, giving you more headroom. If you were low on memory, having that extra memory is going to help and keep it quick. If low on memory, your phone is going to be a lot slower and there is even a chance of crashing if memory gets way low. You will still probably see a speed difference with this ROM compared to the last.

This ROM is going to be faster than the last two for a few reasons. One is I am no longer using Apps2SD (which may have been the root of some of the tether problems some were having). The other is I applied some tweaks and now the Dalvik cache resides on the much faster Cache memory (rather than on the much slower SD card). I have learned a lot since I started and this allowed me to do more and keep this ROM a lot cleaner while speeding it up.

I hope this answers your question.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
The top bar doesn't change with the Manup theme, just the icons do (which you can see are different then stock) and the Rosie at the bottom.

Each theme is exactly how it comes when you download it from the respective author. I just took out the theme wallpapers, boot animations, and transition animations (if any). This way it does not write over the ones included with my ROM, yet still allows you to use the theme.

In other words, you are good to go :) Might want to charge that battery though :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] jgalan14:
Oh ok thanks looks good to and yeah speed is defenetily noticible onthis one compare to your other releases one problem im having is launching some links from facebook app like when some one coment on a picture it takes me to the brwoser and force closes , it didn't do that with my other rom so im not sure let me know if you find out anything pls
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Tested right now and working on mine. Maybe try removing the battery and reboot. If that doesn't help, clear the cache and Dalvik.
[EVO 4G Android Development] angel9190:
Indeed it has. Thanks for clearing that up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rde34:
Is it still advisable to run your ROM with cfs kings 11 minus task killer or setCpu?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
You can run whatever kernel you want, just make sure it runs good with your phone and that is all that matters. It is impossible for me to recommend a kernel because all of these phones react different and some kernels will work better than others on different phones. My two favorites that work well with my phone are King's #11 CFS and Netarchy's 4.19 CFS (which I am currently using). Your mileage may vary of course. What I do is start with the newest one and then try older ones and see if they are better. Once I find a kernel that works well, I stick with it regardless of ROM. Some people cannot even get King's #11 or Netarchy's 4.19 to bootup at all!

A task killer should not be used with Froyo at all. This includes my ROM. If you choose to run it, don't be surprised if it does not work or if you experience problems.

As far as SetCPU, you yet again can do what you want. I would test the phone out without SetCPU installed first, then install SetCPU and see if you find a difference in speed or battery life. I prefer not to run SetCPU personally but it is your phone, please feel free to do what you think is best for you.

I wish it was simple to answer, but no two Evos react exactly the same. Throw in variables like Epson/Novatech screens, different software installed, different SD cards (you get the picture).

Hope this helps answer your questions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Helton566:
Boot Loop when applying Clear theme. I tryed installing both at same time no go. I tried installig Rom then theme no go. Everytime boot loop. Using Clockwork 2.5.0.1 Tried installing through recovery both times.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
This is why I suggest using Amon RA recovery, it works better and Clockwork has issues clearing the Dalvik.

I will test it again but I installed the clear theme on me and worked right away without problems.
