aamikam - I just want to say...dude, your rom is looks really good. I just got a new Evo and this is the rom i want to rock but i have a few question...

1. Does 4G work, have you heard from anyone who has 4G in their area that it's good??

2. I know the Hotspot works with 3G but can I use the wireless tether app also?? Will it conflict?? And do you know if anyone has got the wireless tether app to run with 4G??

Again, an awesome looking app
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shauli20:
I am currently running this ROM and yes, 4G works fine. Any Sense UI based ROM will have 4G working. It's only the AOSP ROMs like CM6 that doesn't support 4G YET.

Regarding Wireless Tether, I haven't tested it yet on this ROM but I have used it on other ROMs together with the Hotspot hack, so it shouldn't be a conflict.

The Hotspot only works with 3G. Wireless Tether technically works with 4G, but there's an issue with the speeds, so in reality you won't be seeing 4G speeds with it.

Been running this since Friday and let me say it is awesome. I am loving the black and white theme everywhere and am getting phenomenal battery life to boot. To me, it makes things way easier to see. Not sure if there is one out there that I've missed but I had a question, have you made a theme for launcher pro in black and white like stock rosie launcher is on your rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
gotya... i just wanted to make sure im gonna fix the right ones for the next version...

thanks.

glad u like it.

and sorry man... didnt even look at launcher pro... everytime i try a different launcher i always end up coming back to sense anyways...

mine shows me the slideshow thing... i push on and it lets me d/l... it just wont let u push the button? or just says fail?

edit:

i gotta skin those buttons also...

just checked both... market not warez.. .

they both work.

dude if its warez versions u using... and u dont have to telll me if it is or not... but u probably wanna redownload them.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
guys i am working on some tiny fixes to the theme that i noticed that i need to make...

i will put up a zip with those fixes sometime soon...

im looking into a few other tiny things... not issues just improvements.

now, i will probably disappear on you guys for a few days cuz i got tons of stuff to do, which is why im gonna put up that tiny update before im disappearing.

it would really not be anything major... but i wanna make sure u guys r up to date with what im running on my phone so that ill be able to help u guys if u have issues.

it would probably take me a day to put those changes up, so feel free to ask for things that u want to be added in that zip.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shauli20:
aamikam, after my first full day running your ROM I must say - this ROM is so cool! (I know I said this already, but I have to say it again ;-))

Battery life has been phenomenal. After 12 hours it still had over %20, and I'm not a light user...

I was running Ava - FroyoV9 ROM before yours for a few days. Didn't like the theme, but he had some 4G tweaks in his ROM. I don't know what he did, but I was getting crazy speeds. I peaked at over 11Mbps! I was just wondering if it would be possible to port his 4G code to your ROM. I don't know if it's public, but it would be awesome if you got it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
i really dont know how to even begin to look into that... and cant really test it even if i find it.

btw... did he actually mentioned that he had tweaks or do u just assume he did?

what i usually do... and thats what i think makes my rom a little different then other.. is take a look at everything that other dev's do with their rom and kinda pick what i like or what i think works good and plug it into mine.

i must say that i never took a real close look at what ava does because when i did it all looked pretty much the same or a little too random to be able to pick up on somethings... so maybe i will be able to catch on to his tweaks this time.

it kinda sucks that probably 80-90 % of the devs here dont always share their secrets...

anyways.. ill take a look at it to see what i can find out.

I redid everything. I think I have everything working now plus I changed to cfs#11 kernel. Ziggy is good from 100% too 50% after that drains like crazy. Been on cfa#11 for 10 hours now took a crap load of pictures of my kids in there costumes and a bunch of my friends kids a few calls and text. From 69% charged down too 40% now. That's dam good. Um tomorrow i will have an update on anything else i come across. But i think my problems were with the ziggys kernel.

[EVO 4G Android Development] D.J.CaSpER:
Also I seen y'all talking about the battery not charging to 100% drops 10% as soon as u take it off the charger. Ya like u said even though the light my be green it not 100%. I use battery snap before i take it off the charger i check that first to make sure its 100% cuz if not its 95% too 91% when i take it off.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Shauli20:
I agree Ava's theme is similar for the most part to stock, and the changes he made are quite random.

He did, however, mention in his OP that there are 4G tweaks. I can't say for sure that the boost in speed is due to that, but for some reason only on his ROM have I gotten such speeds. With stock and yours, I generally max out at a little over 6Mbps.

If you can figure out what he did it would be great, but don't worry about it too much.

Once again, thanks for an excellent ROM and good luck with whatever you'll be busy with the next few days!

[EVO 4G Android Development] ge3kswag:
Ahhhhh... i see, so is the Hotspot hack in "cooked" into this Rom. Is that what aamikam means when he says, " Sprint Hotspot works (removed wireless tether app) " what is the best wireless tether app to use??

What is the best Rom to use, i'm so new to the Evo...i feel like a loser. I am a Vibrant veteran. But here there are so many Roms that work with the Evo. I hear that netarchy is the best for performance and battery life.

Also, just a random question but what is the best PRI to use, the 1.34 or 1.77

Thx Again
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
Will what work?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
Best Rom would give u what when u want and need to work for u when u need it and how u need it.

Same goes for everything else.

I would suggest that u try all of them before really making a decision to stick to one rom.

After trying out some Rom u will know which one u liked the most because no Rom is perfect if u ask me... all have ups and downs.

U just need to find the one that allows u to do everything u expect from the phone, and a little extra would be cool also.

As for pri... probably the newest one but it could change depending on your location.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
fun fact...

both version 3.0 and 3.1 just passed 1500 d/l.

im not sure why people still d/l version 3.0 though... did i forget to add somethings from version 3.0 into 3.1?

it will work if u pull them out of the framework-res and put them into your framework-res... there is a quick guide into how to do it in the themes section.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejc1214:
Mik,

loaded your ROM last night and so far I am liking it very much. I have had most of the big names ROMs on my phone since rooting it a few months ago and yours is really nice, maybe the best that I ever loaded. I will see how the battery will behave after a couple of days.

Couple of questions:

1. Auto Run app. I have never used it before. Are you running it on your tests for better battery life?

2. I use wireless app and now I gather the hotspot native app was fixed where I would not need to, but can carrier tell that the hotspot is being used?

3. Setcpu? Do you use it?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
im happy u like...

1. just use it to prevent apps that u dont use all the time from starting up.

2. hot spot works... sometimes its a little buggy though... but it works. so far it wont work with 4g though, and from tests that some people made, no sprint have no clue.

3. yes i do... i have preset profiles for u guys to use also.

big point i wanna make sure everyone knows is that i almost never get a chance to run my battery from 100% all the way down to 0 simply because i need to plug up my phone and flash things or use adb to test somethings out.

so when it comes to battery life... i usually end up going with what ever laster longer for me when going from 100% to about 50%.

with king bfs #11 i got about 17-18 hour from 100 to 50 but im not really a heavy user.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejc1214:
Thanks for quick reply.

I guess SetCPU is on a folder in the ROM since you say you have settings for us already and is it OC? Or do I need to dig up my copy somewhere?

Autorun sounds like a task killer app. Is it really needed? Will it slowdown my phone?

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
u need to find setcpu by yourself... do a google search if and youll find it.

autorun killer is not a task killer app... well... it is kinda... but that is not its point... i dont think task killer apps prevent processes from starting... they just kill them if u choose to. this app kills it before it starts...

btw... u can always uninstall it if u dont like it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejc1214:
Cool. I think I still have a copy of Setcpu on my card.

The profiles that you recommended, are they in this thread? I must have missed them if they are.

I will try Autorun and see what happens. Like you said I can always uninstall it.

Thanks again for the quick replies. I am still kind of new to Android coming for Blackberry platform and trying to learn as much as I can and I hate to say it but I spend way too much time reading on here and AndroidCentral. LOL

Just pull the old one from the zip of the rom and use adb to push.

I'm not fealling that lag btw...

If u really have no clue how to use adb to push ill make u a zip later today.

Very nice ROM. Love the theme.

I did notice that the browers FCs when you press the back button and the page has not completed loading. I'm pretty sure Fresh's ROM had the same issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
since day one im using it i think....

never happens here...

i know this might sound annoying and kinda makes u think twice before flashing a rom... i never restore backups... cuz i know something might overwrite others in a bad way.... but there is a way to make sure its a minimum change.

i think a lot of u guys that have issues it is probably because u r restiong into your data a little more than just contacts....

try this for me...

first... everytime u restore your things... simply go to recovery and clear dalvik-cache and cache...

after that restart the rom and run the fix_permissions script thats included with rommanager or if u know how to use adb from recovery just run the one i included inside /system/bin/ after u clear the cache's.

this would probably take care of a lot of issues that u might be having... restoring data can sometimes mess up things... that why i only restore my data for specific apps and contacts.

keep in mind that i never really experienced it myself... cuz i dont really restore much if any... but it kinda makes sense that things like that would happen if somehow the restored data doesn't restore permissions in the right way to the restored files... so it only makes sense that it could potentially be an issue.

ill give a quick example... when u flash my rom you will see that i preset permissions for files that i've put into data/data...(thanks to calk's rom i learned to do that btw) if i wont... it simply wont work right.

edit:

also, i used to include the fix_permission script every boot in ver 3.0... cuz i saw that kingklick did it in his rom to make sure everything is set right all the time... but i had to take it out cuz other wise everytime u guys will try to switch things up it might cause issues cuz it is basing the app list on an existing list that has all the apk's names and sizes and such in it.

[EVO 4G Android Development] D.J.CaSpER:
Why would u do it like that? Android is nothing like Wm, cuz thats how u would do it on Wm. Download rom manager boot into recovery install zip from SD card. Make sure the zip is in the root of the SD card and not in a folder.

sent from he moon on my EVO 4g
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
what are u talking about man... what fileboot.img ?

u probably mean boot.img...

i think u r a little confused here man...

u need to d/l the zip and just the way it is without unzipping it u need to put into the root directory of your sdcard... it sounds like u unzipping it to me..

u r rooted btw... right?

then u need to reboot into recovery and go to the wipe menu... wipe data/dalvik-cache/cache.

then go to the menu and pick flash a zip... and flash the zip.

if u not sure how to do any of the things i told u... try to do some research... youll find lots of guides in the forums about how to do things.
[EVO 4G Android Development] pgreeny69:
Do you have a Zip for the aosp lockscreen So I can switch back ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
u mean in the week view right?

i think thats what u mean anyways...

mmmm... i gotta check out the original skin of htc to see how it looks on that and compare.

otherwise... i can be sure its not supposed to be like that...

im not really sure what u mean by "picture" also.

i know that the reason that its wide is uz u probably have a lot of "all day events"...

what i did for the theme though was to make all of the top/bottom dividers transparent... this would make it look like what u seeing... but like i said... i gotta look into the original skin to see whats the difference and if i could/should fix it.

it will be a while though... i got tons of stuff to do... so it wont happen before the weekend.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
u mean that u dont want the htclockscreen right?

anyways.. im sorry but i didnt make one... all u need to do is remove the HtcLockScreen.apk from the /system/app folder... if u dont know how to do that... calk has a flashable zip in his rom's thread.

sorry for not making one... i will when i have time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] pgreeny69:
No problem. Thanks i got it from calk!!!

I've been trying to flash a custom boot animation screen with this rom and cannot. Is there an issue with trying to flash a different screen animation?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
i dont use google voice... so im not sure if u need to remove it or not...

but yes... u can use autokiller to prevent it from starting up.

i changed the default sprint's animation location to the default android one... so u might wanna put your bootanimation.zip into /system/media/ and not into system/customize.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejc1214:
Mik, so far so good ROM. Like it very much except for the battery life. After a couple of days I finally tried to make it thru the whole day without plugging into the car charger while on the go and today I had moderate use and after 9:15 hours I still got 17% of battery. I guess not too bad but wondering if a different kernel might get me better life. What you think? Anyone else run different kernel?

I just installed SetCPU and as I understand the settings that you recommended are built into the ROM so once it is running it will read and set those settings? when I open the app it says it is set on conservative 998 max 245 min but the bars say 1190400 max and 245760 min. Does this mean it is OC to 1190400 but scaled back for battery life sake? That is how I am reading it...
[EVO 4G Android Development] jordant2:
Will the new zip fix this issue? It is a little weird and isn't consistent yet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
no man... this "issue" will probably stay there... i'm still not so sure why its bugging u.

but in the future releases im probably gonna remap that button for u guys anyways... ill put up different zips with different mapping and such.

so even if its still there it u wont see it..

the main reason i didnt remap that key anywhere is cuz i didinot know how to until about 3 days ago... but in future releases i might remap it by default to the browser or something. and like i mentioned before... ill put up zips for u guys to have different mapping options.

just insatlling setcpu wont be enough... u gotta go into it and simply click on anything would make the profiles kickin... im not sure why u have to touch it... but u kinda do... otherwise it wont really use the profiles...

and if it is set to 119... but shows a different max... yes.. maybe the batt is under 75%.

also, feel free to try any kernel u want... i learned that although king kernel work good on my phone it doesnt mean it will work good on yours also.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jordant2:
Don't listen to me, I'm just anal. I would love to see this mapped to the stock browser though, something a lot more useful.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
as u r saying... browser is 1 choice...

i would love to see more remapping requests... and i would also need to know from u guys if u like the 5-row or 4 rows better.

also... i saw someone at the ava thread made a mode where the icons on the screen take up less space...

so... for example... u can fit 5 settings widgets in a column instead of the regular 4.

so ill probably look into that also, which should be very simple... just changing the spaces between the icons is not a bad idea... and really not much of a hard thing to pull off.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejc1214:
I installed it and opened the app and did try to change it from conservative to battery save mode then put it back to conservative.

Battery is below 75% as I just put it on the charger. Will see what it reads after full charge.

I have not set up the autorun app yet and will do that next maybe in a day or two to see what the setcpu will do to battery life. I like to add one thing at a time to test the new ROMs to see what happens.

So far, I think this will be my keeper. I have not found anything that does not work yet that I use on a daily basis. If I can get a couple of extra hours that would be great but I do have chargers all over the house and cars and heck, I got a set of Chinese batteries and wall charger that I got for 10 bucks on eBay so I can swap battery out and be good.

Thank you for all your work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
im happy u can't find bug's... thats 1.

2. always try a different kernel if u not happy with batt life... u dont have to stick to what i use... i said before.. different phones act different to different kernels. i would try out all of them before making my final decision to stick to one of them.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jordant2:
Oh yeah, I love the new htc lockscreen with the black on white. Looks great.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
thanks... one thing i forgot to do is to change the shadow of the incoming caller screen... so if u notice, the text of the name and number is a little too thick.

im fixing it in the next release though... not that i think its a bad thing... i was actually thinking about making the shadow for the date on the lock screen black also so that would be thicker.... of course i can always change the font size also... but i never played with font sizes and had much success, so i'd rather stick to what works for me 100%.

on that note... i hope to release another update on the weekend... it wont be a full rom cuz there is no point yet.

just minor tweaks and a few changes... i also hope to get a list of different remapping options from all u guys.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jordant2:
Some of my favorite shortcuts I would like to see as rosie shortcuts are Market, EStrongs File Explorer, and Internet as I already mentioned.

Also on the lockscreen when the music is playing, the buttons are hard to see.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shauli20:
Hey Mik, this guy at Ava's thread put up a tweak to have a 4×5 workspace on each screen instead of the standard 4×4. He also modified some of the HTC widgets to fit this layout. Do you think you can add this as an option to your ROM?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mplaines:
Mik,

I updated to 3.1 very fast rom loving it! I'm having an issue with trying to flash another boot animation. Everytime I try to flash it it seems to work but it still boots into the MIKFroyo animation. Is there anyway to flash another bootanimation with this rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] D.J.CaSpER:
When doing boot animation its not like flashing new splash screen. Download from the market root explorer so that u can mess with the rom files find the boot animation file replace it with the new boot and restart ur phone then u have the new boot animation. I'm not sure were its at or what folder its in but that how u change boot animation. There is an app that will do it on the market it cost $2 but i don't remember what it is called.
