[EVO 4G Android Development] R32_Rocky:
Rick, I just want to say WOW! What an awesome Rom you created!!!! I have tried many others, and kept going back to Calk's EViO. But right out of the box, your Omega is sooooo smooth, responsive, and very polished. Now sadly, as I have an 003 phone, I have to wait till tomorrow for your new Azreal ROM which will be the proper one to keep. Haven't been excited for anything, in a very ling time. Thank you for your excellent work!
[EVO 4G Android Development] R32_Rocky:
it is a very known, and well documented issue with the EVO and battery charging, not cause of ANY Rom or kernel.

In a nutshell; if you do not remove the EVO off the charger when it hits 100%, it begins to discharge until back to 90% when it then begins to charge again. So thus why it may seem you are at a full100% charge, you are in fact less, and why the battery % drops down to 90% so fast.

I found a program on the Marketplace called OVERCHARGE, which will alert me (even with a voice setup with any message you want) when the charging is complete. It is quite a big help!
[EVO 4G Android Development] R32_Rocky:
Oh and Rick, will you have Darktremor's A2SD support in Azreal? Or is it even worth doing? Because otherwise, what good is having an EXT partition, let alone upgrading it from EXT2>EXT3? As well, is it a total waste of space to partition the SD card to begin with in RA Recovery, and turn it into an EXT? Because is appears nothing gets moved to that partition unless you use his A2SD, and thus I have over 500 MEGS of space sitting there wasting away.

Here are some questions I tried asking in Calk's forum, but will also apply to your upcomming Azreal ROM as well, which I am excited to try:

And again, of course, thank you for your work, and your help!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jbcarrera:
put this in your root unzipped and rom manager should find it and flash it
[EVO 4G Android Development] BmoreBadBoy:
Whew! Thanks man! For a second I thought Azrael ROM was discontinued or something...Love your rom man! ;) Ummmm, I haven't read the whole first post yet but, why'd you change the name? Omega is cool and everything, but a rose is still a rose...

One more thing: Is there an option to tell the phone NOT to search for Sense updates? It's been prompting me every night for the .3 OTA and it's stopping my podcasts from downloading overnight!
[EVO 4G Android Development] thatjerk:
Bump. I would greatly appreciate this from anyone who is capable of doing it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] khshapiro:
+1 for a new Azrael

And here I thought I was the only one with weird fc issues ,and with out fix permissions working in ROM manager(I've had great results with in the past) with your roms to attempt a fix I gave up...... I had already switched back to 2.41(fix permissions also doesn't not work with) , happy to see Ricsim78 ended up seeing atleast 1 fc issue. See after all that testing, somethings still get missed and when we think nothing is wrong. We are all only human and thank god for the delete key! Excited to see a directors cut of azrael.

Ricsim78 if you can remap the rosie and have the browser button on the right

That would be fantastic, because the zips that are out that dont align the icons properly with a rosie. hw 003.
[EVO 4G Android Development] iamsavedme30:
I am so glad I am not only one that thinks Azrael 2.4 is better.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
i believe HTC sourced some hardware from a different vendor thus requiring different drivers/software etc primarily i have heard for the camera. otherwise i wouldn't even concern with that other than if you have newer hardware to seek out 3.30 based ROM's as 3.29 will work just fine for the majority of us with "launch" hardware
[EVO 4G Android Development] blueblur:
Just flashed Omega on my 003... So far haven't noticed any difference in battery but I rarely get more than 8 hours on a battery because I use GPS, 4G and heavily text on it... I await the return of AZREAL but hope that you keep it stock looking like Omega was/is.

[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
OmegaEVO v1.1 released

Ready for download now. For a list of changes please see the first post.

Themes take down now, I have to redo them and I will have much more available tonight. I have a lot of work to do so please be patient. The new ROM is working very well I might add! All issues are fixed that have been reported and I found out why it was saying the old ROM (3.30.651.2). I reused the build.prop from my old ROM. Silly mistake but it is just numbers anyhow.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thundley:
OmegaEVO 1.1

Wooooo, Great, I am downloading now... Nice work!!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] iamsavedme30:
Is it ok to allow the system to update on the Azrael ROM. Someone said it would unroot me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chadm424:
why do 004 have to use azreal? is that why i cannot tether
[EVO 4G Android Development] vacoray:
Ok, so this is for the new hardware version still? and Azreal is still coming for the older hardware?
[EVO 4G Android Development] iamsavedme30:
Ok I'm a little confused, I am running Azrael 2.4 ROM with the 003 hardware, 3.29....2, and I have Kings kernel#11. Today my battery has been doing pretty good. I have had some freezing but for the most part, sense I have been running this ROM I have loved it. I tell everyone who has a rooted Evo to check it out.

Is there anything else I could be doing or should I just sit tight.
[EVO 4G Android Development] iamsavedme30:
Should I do the radio update or no? And what will happen when Android 2.3 comes out?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jayrizz:
Ok after I wiped what I could..lol now back up and running:) Thanks a lot I thought I was done, I will flash RA recovery now and use that and leave setpcu alone HAHA. Now if I flash RA recovery will I loose my ROMS that i have backed up through Rom manager as I know I will loose it( ROM MANAGER) when i flash RA recovery??
[EVO 4G Android Development] iknowsquat:
While I havent tried it I have read that you can take the backups from your Clockwork backup folder and place them in your nandroid folder for amon.

It *should* work but just make sure there are no spaces in the file names of the backups. amon/nandroid wont like that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jayrizz:
Thnaks for all the help im now on RA recovry and went in i did a wipe everything but data flashed the kernel again not sure why lol but i did and now im getting that crazy looking screen again any thoughts on that??:confused:

OHH K I just shut off screen and its good now! My other question is backing up in nandriod....first is that backing up my current ROM? If so how can i rename it? Is it through disk drive on PC and rename that first folder under nandroid?
[EVO 4G Android Development] iknowsquat:
Np, happy to help.

Nope, never seen a jacked up recovery screen :confused:

Is that that only screen that is jacked?

If it's only recovery then you could try to flash the recovery image again (from ROM Manager)

If it's more than that I would play it safe and do a complete reinstall but that's just me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jayrizz:
OHH K I just shut off screen and its good now! My other question is backing up in nandriod....first is that backing up my current ROM? If so how can i rename it? Is it through disk drive on PC and rename that first folder under nandroid?

Sorry the crazy looking screen was in the Rom itself!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] iknowsquat:
While a little OT ricsim is cool so I assume he wont mind--yes, nandroid is backing up your current ROM, making an EXACT copy. It is a failsafe so you can jump back to it let's say in the event you try a mod that doesnt work or a new ROM you dont like. It is not a way to save settings. That being said you CAN pull your data image to restore data but IMO it's not worth it.

An app like Titanium Backup is a great way to save settings/data.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jayrizz:
Awsome thanks so I will be able to rename the it so I dont get confused on which Rom I have backed up? Only thing left is to wait for the WIFI updat and I think I will stick with this Rom its great and I will try Titanium backup.

You were a big help today thanks again dont know why I was stuck on my Blackberry for so long...lol (love and miss the BBM):D

OT OR NOT YOU GUYS PUT IN A LOT OF WORK FOR GUYS LIKE ME AND IT GOES ALONG WAY!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] iknowsquat:
ALL ALL ALL credit goes to ricsim-just to be clear-I had NOTHING to do with his ROM, I just enjoy helping out :)

Yes, you can rename the backups on your PC or with a file manager like Astro, just like I said earlier-no spaces and you'll be golden.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jayrizz:
Roger that working it now just saying all you guys do good work even if you just helping on the threads, ricsim has created a great Rom:D

Thanks again!!

Wireless tether fix

I am experiencing the same wireless tether issues as others. Has anyone found a fix for this issue? Vaelek had the same issue on his VaelPak 2.2 and came up with a fix. This is great but will be a deal breaker if I can't get this to work. Well done on the ROM for what works up to this one issue!
[EVO 4G Android Development] iknowsquat:
Tried different kernels but no joy.

I also tried different channels under Settings.

As more users discover your killer ROM more are reporting the same issue.

I get the feeling that the fix is not something that can be applied on the user end.

Wish I could shed more light into what the issue could be.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jayrizz:
So you are saying your WiFi tethering is good to go?
[EVO 4G Android Development] iknowsquat:
Not sure how you got that from my post but no, I cant get it to go.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jayrizz:
Reading from my phone sorry bout that!
[EVO 4G Android Development] foresure84:
also htc syn is not working on this rom please fix
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
I find it very odd that anyone is having any problems with anything.

I am using the exact same ROM and both HTC sync and Wireless tethering are working, in fact I can take screenshots to prove it.

I know I am the guy who made it, but this is based on a stock ROM with enhancements, that is why lots have reported it works well compared to other ROMS they have used.

I will of course look into it, but until I myself have the same problems, I cannot fix things when mine is working fine.

I would like some info for those having problems.

I need you to tell me what root method you used, what exact problem you are having, and any other important information (addons you used with my ROM, etc.) and kernel you are using.

To answer your questiom about netfilter enabled kernels, both Netarchy and King's kernels are netfilter enabled.
[EVO 4G Android Development] iknowsquat:
No need to prove it ricsim, I believe you ;)

I rooted via Toast and tether will not work for me immediately post flash, no mods at all, no apps added.

I for one wouldn't expect you to fix something you dont see yourself. It is without a doubt a weird scenario.

EDIT:

Here's some info Bro-hope it sheds some light:

I flashed OMJ 3.6 which is based off of the "official" RUU base. He has a very stock-looking ROM, he removes a lot of apps and does not theme it. He has the latest stock kernel. He cooks in wireless tether 2.0.5 Pre11 and wireless tether works for me.

I uninstalled 2.0.5 Pre11 and installed 2.0.2 from the Market (same one you cooked your ROM with) and wireless doesnt work.

So I tried the reverse with Azrael-did a fresh flash, no mods.

Wireless tether 2.0.2 wouldnt work (we know this)

I uninstalled it, wiped cache and dalvik and then powered the phone off competely.

When I powered back on I installed 2.0.5 Pre11 but alas it would not work (Couldnt be THAT easy ;) )

Despite me not having success with Azrael I wonder if you cooked in a different version (2.0.5 Pre11) would there be more success across devices? I'd be more than happy to test a Beta for you if you want to throw one together-just a thought.

2.0.2 in the Market, while listed as compatible for Evo, is from June of 2008. Your success with it notwithstanding, I wonder of a later version would work better for those of us having issues-I would be willing to bet you'd be ok with it too.

Thanks for all you do and your time with this issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Not a problem at all, I want this ROM to work 100% with everyone.

I will try Pre 11 and I will have a fix posted ASAP if I determine that it works. If I decide to do a beta test of Azrael 2.2, you will get a download link Iknowsquat and I may have you and a couple others run it for a bit to ensure everything is working.

It is just frustrating because when you are not experiencing the problem, it is hard to fix what is not broken lol.

I'll iron it out and appreciate your help in getting it there. Have a good weekend and thank you very much for all the nice feedback (this applies to everyone).
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
I updated the first post to include information about the upcoming Azrael 2.2, which I expect to have out by 10/21 (maybe sooner).

For a list of changes, check out the original post. If you liked my ROM before, wait until you see this version in action!

I also will include a wireless tethering fix (for the few that have had issues) and the boot animation is a bit more polished.

The wait is over soon!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Yes and yes :) You can use this on older hardware, works fine on mine but technically this 3.30.651.3 update is for 0004 hardware phones.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Do not use any OTA ever or you risk being unrooted. If you system keeps notifying you of an update, go to settings>System updates>System software and uncheck the box that says Scheduled Check.
[EVO 4G Android Development] iamsavedme30:
Ok already did. Stupid question. Should I use an app killer? Is that draining my battery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
The tether was not working that I included with OmegaEvo 1.0, regardless of hardware.

You do not HAVE to use Azrael, it just is likely ideal for your phone since you do not have the 0004 hardware.

The cons of using this new 3.30.651.3 update on older phones is higher than usual battery drain. It has been experienced by myself and others. Of course you can negate that by just using a different kernel, but still. Why not use a build optimized for your particular hardware?

I do not personally like having to build (and maintain) 2 different ROMS but what can you do?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Likely, do not use App killers with froyo.

Know why your battery is draining? The app killer is killing apps; after it does that a few seconds later they open right back up again. This constant killing and reopening of apps is draining your battery.

App Killer + Froyo is a NO NO. It is like sticking your hand in a light socket; sure you can do it but why the hell would you want to? :p
[EVO 4G Android Development] iamsavedme30:
Awesome, thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] dee-vious_dee:
So can you tell me if you revert back to the Stock#10 kernel? I had to go back to your old ROM cause of the battery draining so bad!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
You can just use another kernel (Netarchy, Kingclick, Ziggy's, Hero overs, or older HTC ones.)

Still best to use 3.29 on older phones (Hardware version 0001, 0002, 0003) and use 3.30.XXX.X on hw 0004. There is likely different coding in the ROM itself that may be setup for the new hardware.
[EVO 4G Android Development] starkillers:
Sweet... will we see azrael tonight for us older hardware folks?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
New theme available now, information about it and download available on the bottom of the first post.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
Any idea when the director cut of azreal will be available?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Maybe tonight or tomorrow, I have to redo Azrael first which I am working on soon. Lots to do!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Window Transitions animations added on the front page.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jm5503:
Where's the link to fix the browser? It's force closing when pressing the back button twice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
For OmegaEVO, update to 1.1 and that problem no longer exists.

If you are using OmegaEVO v1.1 already (please be more specific) I am not having any problems (I was personally getting FC with the browser in 1.0 but working perfect in 1.1)
[EVO 4G Android Development] jm5503:
I'm running 1.1.....ill try to wipe cache and davlic cache and see if that works....
[EVO 4G Android Development] suavestats718:
<3

Once again another amazing rom you have created and i am still loving the insane smoothness of this rom :D. My only problem is when i tried to flash your theme my phone would go into boot loops -_- and yes i have also clear the cache and dalvik. Also i was wondering can i flash any theme over your rom or just the ones you provide.

Thank you in advance
[EVO 4G Android Development] VDub2174:
Downloading v1.1 and the theme now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Hey there, glad you like the ROM and hope it treats you well.

Are you letting the ROM load up (themeless) first, then rebooting into recovery, wiping the cache and Dalvik, then installing the theme?

If so you should be in business. If you tried flashing the ROM and theme at the same time, probably not going to work.

Please see the second post of this thread for directions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vacoray:
Please help me understand. Omega1.1 is only for the new EVO hardware version right? Or is it fixed to work on any version.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rileyd5:
looking good! question, does your riptide theme tbar look the same as the sshots on riptide's thread or did you change out the 3g icon? Just curious.
[EVO 4G Android Development] suavestats718:
read the second post?? pshhhhh plzzzzz... I read ur whole guide that you made XD but yeah i did read the second post lolll and i did exactly what you just said i had ur rom installed for a couple days already den last night i tried flashing the theme nd i got boot loops but im currently backing up all of my data and making a nand back up den flashing to ur new rom nd see if it works. Also if i downloaded a galaxy s theme would i be able to flash it over this rom ?

nvm i read the second post and you said we could use any theme loll whoops my fault i take my question back about the galaxy theme
[EVO 4G Android Development] THunDA:
Thanks again Rick, downloading now!

edit..

Does the new theme you posted have a transparent notification back round now ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Yes it does :) Just does not have the new icons that Riptide9 used, or the Riptide clock. I will make that an option later. Right now working on Azrael.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Compared to the stock Riptide9 theme...

The same:

Icons, Transparent top bar, Transparent lockscreen, circle battery indicator with %, custom graphics, notification bar, and blue highlights.

Different:

Transparent Rosie bottom bar, clock not changed, no apps messed with or icons changed for the apps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rileyd5:
awesome thanks for the info. will check it out tonight!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
Is it hard to change the color highlights in a theme? I really like the riptide theme but don't like blue highlights. If it's not hard could you change the highlight color and offer us some options?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dee-vious_dee:
Can ANYONE Direct me where I can Download the Stock HTC #10 kernel I can't find it at all here.
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
There you go.... again. :p Just flash through recovery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Azrael is back everyone!

Omega is now for hardware version 0004

Azrael is now for all others (0003,0002,0001)

Link in first post.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jwwolfe77:
I know its not this rom that's the problem but no matter what rom I flash I don't receive my voicemails. Anyone have an idea of what the problem is?
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
What do you mean by you "dont receive them"? You dont get them at all or theyre not downloading to visual voice mail?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jwwolfe77:
The only way I can get a voicemail is to dial my number to check to see if I have any. I don't receive any kind of notification To let me know I have one. Not even visual voicemail.
[EVO 4G Android Development] THunDA:
I think its a sprint problem atm, had quite a few ppl come into my job complaining about it then I tested mine and it doesnt work either. Was working earlier this morning but stopped towards the end of the day.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jwwolfe77:
Ahh. I see. And I was flashing rom after rom thinking it was just me. Thank you sir.
[EVO 4G Android Development] iamsavedme30:
Is it possible to flash those themes with Azrael or do we have to wait.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
You can flash any theme you like, my ROM is not a special one that only takes special themes hehe.

Just be careful; something break stuff (mail, etc.) so Nandroid before you try one. This way if it causes problems, you can reverse it back to before you install the theme.

In fact, I will do one better. Anyone having a problem with a theme (make SURE is not far outdated or made for CM6, if it is I cannot help you!) and I will take a look at it and release a fixed version that works.

How is that for service? :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Glad you got it ironed out, I have no had any problems with VM personally but I know a few on here were saying they were having issues.

Especially glad it is not my ROM!
[EVO 4G Android Development] khshapiro:
in the 2 new roms you put out today you included a boot sound, can you tell me a way to remove the boot sound? is there an adb push or pull command i can use?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
In the bottom of the first post, attached, you will see a flashable zip. It will remove the startup sound.
[EVO 4G Android Development] khshapiro:
awsome, i missed it! THX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
No you didn't, I just made it and added it hehe.

The startup sound was not intentional, guess I missed it but I was also doing a lot today. Oh well, easily fixed.

Another way to remove it is use Root Explorer, go to system/customize/Resource and remove SPC_Animation_Final.mp3 and it takes out the sound.

Basically the flashable zip does the same thing :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] jwwolfe77:
Grrr! After spending an hour on the phone with tech support we still did not get my voicemail working. They told me they will give me a $10 credit for my inconvenience and they will pass it on to network engineers to figure out and that they will call me back in 24-72 hrs.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
It stinks it is not working but at least you got a cheaper phone bill now :)

Keep us posted :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] iamsavedme30:
Really kinda upset that Riptide doesn't seem to wanna work with Azrael on my phone. I keep getting a bootloop. Is there anything else I could do?
[EVO 4G Android Development] DarkSin:
This is the best ROM I have ever used! slick, smooth and STABLE! Thanks for your hard work and keep it up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
Try wiping cache and data cache a couple of times with Amon_Ra before you flash the theme.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Yes, what he said. Never try and flash both a ROM and theme at the same time. Always install the ROM, load it up. Reboot into recovery and wipe the cache and Dalvik, install the theme and finally reboot and it should work fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Thank you very much, it will get better soon :) Please enjoy it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Addictedtothegreenguy:
Ricism this is my first Rom of yours this is badass expect somethin special when I get paid ( and figure out how to work paypal). I've tried almost every sense Rom on xda and yours is snappier with everything and so far 12 hours off 68% charge
