Hey just a quick question before I load this ROM I have 3.1 and I am just wondering about the two different versions. the one says DL this version w/ apps2sd if you have a fast sd card. I have the one that came w/ the phone 8gig sdhc class 2 I believe. Is that fast enough?

Not really anything good unless you flash a complete theme.

Check out slayers theme he has some addons that you might

like and they do work with Azrael 4.0
[EVO 4G Android Development] jimbobtexas:
Good synopsis, and yes, it does help. I was using a Home Switcher and ADW EX, so it makes sense (I made a funny!) that without removing Sense altogether, I was doubling down on my UI. Incidentally, I did the opposite, and removed ADW and went back to Sense. My battery life has improved dramatically. I may try it the other way, remove Sense and run just ADW, and see how that pans out.

Thanks for the reply, and thanks for this ROM. It's rock-solid.

[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
Thanks!

This is the 1st ROM I flashed on my EVO and I want to say thanks to Rick for making a fast, well-functioning ROM!

I'm using Netarchy 4.2.2 more-HAVS w/ SBC, so far all is working well and haven't noticed any battery drain, sound output, or stability issues.

I did notice a small problem (if you can call it that) with setting the wallpaper. When you use the Cooriris 3D Gallery to select an image on the SD card, it says the wallpaper is updated but home wallpaper doesn't change. However, using the stock HTC Gallery works normally.

Also, are there any plans to integrate JsChiSurf's Notification power control widget to your Azrael ROM? With all of the improvement to the stock 3.70, this would be icing on the cake.

I'm looking forward to your future ROMs.

Have you tried redownloading and reinstalling the theme? Sometimes the theme or any other MOD doesn't download to your computer correctly. That's happened to me before. Like Jbcarrera said, it could be a bad download.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
To me it is but that's just my opinion. I like SetCPU: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=505419&highlight=htc+evo

This program is not just for the HTC Dream G1 so disregard what forum it's in. That's just where he put the thread but I believe it's for all HTC phones. At least I know it can be used on the Evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kdelinux:
Now, is SETCPU really needed for this type of ROM??? or is it overkill for the poweruser that want to see how far the phone can go?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
It's people's prerogative whether they want to use it or not. I use it and my phone is fine. If you don't want to use it, that's up to you. I don't think it's overkill at all. I'm also not using the stock kernel either. Before you ask, my phone doesn't work well with it. :rolleyes:

If you're using a kernel that works well without SetCPU, by all means, don't use it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
I'm only using setCPU to overclock @ 1.15GHz and underclock during sleep with the netarchy kernel. This ROM worked well for me with the included HTC kernel and no setCPU.

Just my preference.
[EVO 4G Android Development] omarquez510:
Finally got it to work. I usually download files straight from my phone. I DL'd from my pc and transferred the file over.

Thanks for letting me know.

I have Azrael 4.0 ROM with the theme flashed on my phone. Cleared the cache and Dalvik and flashed the circle battery. And yep, I now have the nice circle battery with the fancy transitions. :)

But now the stock notification icons returned instead of the Azrael 4 themed ones (like wifi for example). Is there any way to have my cake and eat it too (Azrael 4 theme icon with circle battery)? Can anyone merge the 2 zip files and just replace the standard Azrael 4 theme battery with the circle one? Has anyone done that yet?

How to make SD card read speeds on rooted HTC EVO even faster than previous mod

Posted by Jenn K. Lee

Reblog

If you're already enjoying the increased read speeds on your HTC EVO's microSD card after changing the read-ahead value to 128 (tutorial here), then you'll be ecstatic to hear that increased values up to 1024 have been confirmed to boost speeds even more.

G&E reader Neil H did "a bunch of writing, testing, and posting larger caches" after the initial 128 improvements were reported and discovered that while the 8GB card bundled with the EVO can only benefit from the 128 or 256 values, 16GB/32GB Class 4 and higher cards can use 512 and 1024.

He even created flashable .zips for us so the higher values changes will survive a reboot. Just download the one you want and flash it on your rooted EVO (tutorial here; don't forget to make sure that you have a recent Nandroid backup just in case): 256 value .zip | 512 value .zip | 1024 value .zip

Neil H says the .zips will work on all ROMs (Sense or AOSP) as long as the kernel you're using doesn't already have the modified value built into it. He also notes that "a lot of the speed increases depend on the ratio of used-to-empty space on the card," which means that a card with less free space will be a bit slower than the same card with more free space.

He and his friends tested the new values on Class 2, 4, and 10 cards. Their results are below.

16GB Class 2 card

Stock value: 3 MB/s read

128 value: 5 MB/s read

256 value: 10 MB/s read

512 value: 10MB/s read

1024 value: 8 MB/s read (reduced speed because "the cache was so large compared to what [he] was loading into it that it took away some speed" while the cache was "filling")

16GB Class 4 card

For the rest go to:

Random Reboots during large file transfers especially with youtube was something i went thru 3 weeks after the HTC EVO dropped. I had to get a total replacement in july of 2010 n have never had an issue since. I thought that issue would never resurface with the new hardware versions. And if it is a problem again thats the hardware malfunction itself, n i swore to this day that it was the problem for my random reboots during heavy downloading.

I use to get the random reboots with unrooted Sense. Not the case when rooted. Are the random reboots happening when you're rooted as well?

I too have had the Youtube reboots when watching certain videos. Happened to me just the other day, and I was just watching some of the Super Bowl commercials off of it.

[EVO 4G Android Development] sw99:
Speaking of reboots. Anyone know why the reboot comes up with 4g stuck in "turning on" but never available. I always need to reboot again to fix it. Come to think of it the "hot restart" option on reboot also screws up 4g

I am amazed StILL at how fast thus ROM is.
[EVO 4G Android Development] drewtorrespr:
When I first got the Hardware 001 version when the phone released, Their were no random reboots.. I rooted two weeks into the phone n it took another week or 2 for it to start randomly rebooting thru heavy data usage. What I had mentioned in other forums in July of 2010 that I believe it was a hardware issue. The reason being, during those restarts the bottom of the phone would get real hot. Could root have caused it? I just dont know. Ive read comments thru other forums where ppl believe it was root and others believe root and romming helped fixed it. So it could swing either way. Regardless i believe its just the processor and other stuff just crapping out due to manufacture. Luck of the draw if you managed to get a phone that reboots during heavy data. So if anyone is experiencing after rooting, then go to back to stock and see if it continues...if it does continue then replace it. happened to me.

just Make sure you flash the phone back to S-ON if you do replace, just in case.

With or without Apps2SD

I'm hoping someone can help me understand this better.

I just got my class 10 SD card today. I understand that standard Azrael has dalvik2cache and the darktremors apps2sd version can do dalvik2SD. So I'm guessing this will be a trade off: The apps2sd version could have slightly better performance, at the risk of burning up the SD card faster.

If this is true, what kind of performance improvement can be realized? Right now I put a higher priority on my SD card, but I wanted to see if my understanding is correct.

What is the rest of the Azrael community running?

I need to change my Sig, but I'm now using net-4.3.2-sbc-more HAVS also. I can also say I'm experiencing great battery life.

When I flashed Azrael4 for the first time, I started with net 4.2.2 more HAVS with SBC. That kernel worked very good with my phone. Then I got too happy with flashing mods and corrupted some files (damn circle battery and notification widgets...). I noticed a lot of people were running with the stock kernel ricsim included with good feedback. Gave it a try and my battery drained very fast and it feel as snappy as net's kernel to me.

I wiped everything and started over. This time I gave net's beta kernel a shot. I couldn't be happier right now.

In summary, I'm running rev003, all radios updated, Azrael4 (non a2sd version), Azrael4 theme, and net 4.3.2 SBC more HAVS. Result is great battery life, no need to calibrate the battery, good 3G speed (~1.5), and no force closing.
