wireless tether or hotspot?

problems with wireless tether-- getting an error message; however hotspot works. Any suggestion/ Anyone using hotspot rather than wireless tether?

edit: re- wiped everything.. Wireless tether works.

thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vandelay007:
I can't use either....wireless tether gives me an error too and when I connect to hot spot it either gives me a username/pw error and/or shuts down my mobile network....

Ric - You haven't gone an switched to an IPhone or something crazy like that, have you?? :) :) :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
No...an Apple phone will never be a possession of mine! I do not believe in them :p

Azrael X v5.0 is currently a work in progress...I have a working prototype cooked up but it is far from finished. This time, the ROM will no longer come with a "dark theme". Going to make wallpaper packs for it instead, this way you can make it look how you want.

I really want to iron this one out and I am admittedly rusty at ROM making, but am remembering as I go along. I want to put my all into this and make this my best ROM ever, as a sort of apology for my absence. I want to make the wait as worthwhile as I can.

The ROM will be out in a week or two, basically ASAP. I hope you really like this one!

Thanks, everyone, for the continued support, I have not forgot about any of you and just got sidetracked a bit, a lot going on with me lately. But, think it is about time for an Azrael update!

Can't wait for the updated rom rick. I'm waiting patiently. Your roms are the only ones I use because they are stable and not themed (I'm not a fan of all the theming, I like the mostly stock look)

Ric, what is the undervolt on this rom? Curious because my phone is really stable on it.

Sent from my CM7 EVO Beast!
[EVO 4G Android Development] wryun:
I have been using CM6&7 since day one with my Droid Incredible, then with my EVO4G. Every now and then I go back to stock because I like my phone to *just work*. The CM rom is cool and performs okay, but there are bugs with things that are important to me and my usage, it drives me nuts. My phone always works as intended with the stock rom, but it is sluggish and battery life sucks. Also, I think the stock icons are ugly, which I take care of with LauncherPro Plus by assigning AOSP icons on my home screens. Because of these things, I always end up back with CM.

I am looking forward to trying your rom! I want my phone to work as I need it to, and I hope your rom gives me the great stock rom experience with faster speed and seamless use with widgets and apps.

Thanks!

UPDATE: Post installation and setup.

Nice ROM so far. The first thing I was looking for and noticed was the speed. I like the animations, they match the animation I use in LPP. I did as suggested and set animations to FAST. It screams! Scrolling and transitions are smooth. Very nice!

The next thing I will be paying attention to is battery life. Do any of you have suggestions for a kernel, or has the stock kernel worked well for you? I read the dev's response about suggesting kernels, but I would like to know which kernels are more popular. It seems like all of the kernel devs are moving to AOSP and leaving HTC Sense behind.

Thanks again! Can't wait for v5.

Never mind, answered my own question last night. Had even worse signal than the EVO. So the G2x is going back.

But if anyone else on Sprint is starting to drop down to 1x all too often, you will want to read this post! Sprint is lying when they tell you, like they did to me - that a tower is down in your area.

It appears Sprint tech support was lying to me about a tower being down and repairs started! No wonder why for the past 5 weeks I have constantly dropped down to 1x!

Perhaps he's just waiting on the right thing to come along and put his personal touch on? If so then I would suggest, perhaps, a Ric treatment on the new Speedy port. I'm running it right now and it's awfully nice : GB, Sense 2.1, fast and stable. There's only a few things it's missing in my eye, such as the CRT animations, semi-transparent notification and app drawers, and some of the Sense 3.0 things such as the camera and lockscreen that I believe will work on Sense 2.1. All simply eye-candy but nice stuff to be sure. How about it Ric? Pretty please?!? =)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jason Black:
I have an issue...the market keeps giving me an error. Talking about insufficent memory. How do i switch where the apps will be saved from the sd to internal memory? it seems like the sd parition is full. it only has 24mds left. and im using version 4.0 with a2sd
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
I may be taking a stab in the dark but when you have App2SD, I don't think your whole app is transferred to the SD card. There is still a certain amount of MGs or KBs that stays on your phone's internal memory. So the 24 MGs of space you have left still won't be enough file space for what gets stored on your phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jason Black:
Here's what i can see

System Rom: 367MB (108 MB Free)

Internal: 446MB (271 MB Free)

SD Card: 7.40GB (3.32 GB Free)

SD Card (a2sd): 493MB (25.0 MB free)

It seems like all the apps are in the a2sd partition. Which isnt bad, but its not letting me install anymore apps into it.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

That's just a form display..... do you happen to know how I can increase the a2sd partition size?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
No...that's why I gave you the links. I'm not sure what form display is but if you really want to find out how to do what you're asking, I'd suggest you ask there. There are plenty of knowledgeable folks on these forums that can help better than I. Doing a search on the topic wouldn't hurt either because I've seen this question asked before time and time again and people were able to provide answers. I'm not having any problem like that so my info on the subject is limited.

You'd get an answer far quicker there than here.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
I just read the last few posts. You need to setup a2sd and ext partition on your SD manually. If you hadn't specifically done these things, then you're not really using a2sd.

You can resize your ext partition by using amon ra. There's functions in the recovery that specify this. Standard sizes is 32mb for swap partition and 512 for ext partition. If you have tons of apps, increase this to 1024mb. There's really no need for anything larger unless you want to keep 600+ apps. Word of caution, this process will reformat your SD card. Make a Ti backup of all your apps, then backup all of the SD contents to the PC, do this ext partition work, and then restore all of your data back on your SD.

Once you restore your apps with Ti backup (if necessary), then in a terminal emulator on your phone enter the following commands:

su

a2sd reinstall

This will move all of your apps to the.ext partition you just made. Then enter these commands:

su

a2sd nocache

This will move your dalvik cache back to your internal memory. You'll have plenty of room for it since the apps won't be there. I think the phone will reboot while doing this, but that's normal.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Jason Black:
You're the man! This is what i see that i have right now.. i already have an 512mb ext3 partition i created with esus for link2sd, considering that i didnt use recovery, I'll make another one. So am i just making en sd ext or an sd ext and an a2sd partition?

System Rom: 367MB (108 MB Free)

Internal: 446MB (271 MB Free)

SD Card: 7.40GB (3.32 GB Free)

SD Card (a2sd): 493MB (25.0 MB free)

Which to me looks like the apps are going into the a2sd partition and not the internal memory.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
You will just make an ext3 partition which a2sd will use. I don't know if you'll be able to have 2 ext partitions at the same time, so you might need to ditch asus' one by removing all partitions and staring over with the utility in recovery. The recovery utility will as for swap partition size (32mb) and ext size (I assume you'll go for 1024mb). Once that is complete, use the tool in recovery to go ext2 -> ext3 (don't go to ext4, our phones don't support it). Once this work is complete, finish with those a2sd commands and you should be done. Good luck.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Jason Black:
Thanks! I didn't read this earlie. I set swap to 1.2gig :(... oh well i guess... so every app i install will go into that, partition. So i dont have to keep doing the command each time i install an app?
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
Lol, 1.2gb swap is quite big. :o Consider redoing the partition 1 more time with the correct sizes if you have the will power to do so.

And yes, you have nothing else to do as every new app will be stored to that ext partition automatically.

[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
I don't remember the exact code. If you enter a2sd help, you'll get a list of commands.

It doesn't make sense to me. If you did a2sd install (or reinstall), then you should have plenty of space in internal memory.

Just an FYI to you guys still waiting (like I am too), the latest MikG 1.01 Rom will blow you away!!!!! It's a Gingerbread port from the Shift, with some 3.0 goodies thrown in. And now that it has the OTA kernel baked into it that supports brightness on our Novatec screens, this Rom is awesome! It is fast, smooth, and stable/reliable enough for being your daily Rom. Finally, a Gingerbread Rom, with all the Sense 2, and some 3, goodies that works! To hell with that garbage Sense 1.0 GB OTA Rom that Sprint tossed to us. Such a disappointment.

I believe that is specified in the smali code that resides in the classes.dex file inside the rosie.apk.

Lookup apktool and smali/baksmali to decompile .dex files to be able to edit them.

Perhaps an easier way is finding a mod that already remapped the rosie. Do a nand backup, and try flashing one of those mods.

Hmm...wonder if Rick is coming back?

Hey everyone,

Well, I made Azrael X v5.0 based off 3.70 (was only option to keep everything working at the time) and sure enough, I started hearing rumors of the actual Gingerbread OTA coming out soon. Feeling it would have been an utter waste to do ANOTHER 3.70 rom, I waited patiently for Gingerbread to finally get released.

Well, long story short, Azrael X v5.0 BETA is just about ready for release.

Hey Jason,

I sure am, uploading a new version of my ROM that is indeed the latest OTA (which is Gingerbread or Android 2.3)

I consider it a beta because I have not taken a ton of time to test it out, but it is running well on my particular phone. Of course, Netflix is not working but that is true with the OTA which this is based off. I am sure Netflix and/or Sprint/HTC will have a fix soon...I hope. If not, I am more than sure someone here on XDA can get it working.
