On a personal note, I commend your level of maturity, and growth as a fellow human being. I too get pissed off at people sometimes, but after a day or so with a better environment, I tend to make another evaluation and make things out for the better. Pip pip and cherrio to you. Thanks for the past, present, and future efforts.

I would have bought you a beer a while ago, but sad to say I have been layed off, and am barely making ends meet. I expect a nice tax refund though, and will look out for you then .

Back on this rom today after testing out some other roms and Android Tether is a no go obviously but I just discovered that the native sprint hotspot shuts off and closes all on it's own with no apparent warning. It turns off completely and even dissapears from the upper notifications bar. Strange. It's definetely a minor flaw in the rom itself. I think I'll just wait for an updated release that addresses these tethering problems. I personally prefer a turn-key "no patches required" rom. but that's my choice, I know the fix is probably simple enough but searching through this thread for it is not in my schedule.

This is still a great rom btw, but if tethering is important for you then wait for an update (if ever) or choose another rom for now.

Glad to see that you're gonna continue making these great roms, Rick. I just flashed my trusty backup of 3.1 after messing around with numerous ASOP roms. Just can't deal with the random rebooting, I know trying a different kernel may fix it, but I don't have the time to try a dozen different kernels. I have a life and need my phone to work, Azrael provides me that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] evohnoo:
I know this horse has been beaten, probed, prodded, and otherwise fisted... but I thought I would throw my own experiences in to add to the others, to describe the problem with the wireless tether in Az. 3.1...

I had 3.1, wireless tether worked for a while. I rely on this for on the road internet. Im very basic, no theming, very little flashing, I like this the way it is.

One day, WT just stopped working cold turkey. I tried and tried every trick in the book. I updated my laptop wireless drivers, messed with channels, access control, encryption, IPs, uninstalls, different versions of WT... everything known to man, with no success. I too, was just getting it to connect, however wasnt able to transmit any data ON 3G ONLY....

When I turned on 4G, BAM... there was wireless tether, and things worked very well. Now, this might seem ok to some, but 95% of the time, Im in a non 4G area.

So with my many hours of looking for a fix, the bug is somewhere within 3G, WT, and 3.1. No idea where or with what, but its there.

I downgraded to Az. 3.0.... WT works like a charm on 3G (typing on it now) and on 4G. Clearly, something changed from 3.0, to 3.1 thats yet to be known. But those having the problem, know that going back to 3.0 worked for me...

I appreciate Ricks time and energy put into the rom, and hope that with further information and trials, a resolution to this small glitch will be found.
[EVO 4G Android Development] skyfox99:
Fisting in any nature (especially the equine) is just wrong... That being said, do you really think a horse would notice? Your fisting might turn into an arming up to the shoulders. Ew, anywho, works tether works for me on 3.1, I know there are many different versions of it, so that would lead me to think it is not the ROM itself. Many other ROM forums have many a complaint about wireless tether not working. Just saying...
[EVO 4G Android Development] evohnoo:
Well, define "wrong".... they are beautiful creatures right?... what..? I mean, yea... anyways...

Your post has validity... however, I cant get away from the fact that ALL I did, was reflash 3.0, and WT works. Then, I reinstalled all my apps to the exact point I was at with 3.1, and WT still works.

Before that, I obviously did a full reinstall of 3.1 with triple ply wiping, no apps, nothing else, just the base ROM, and it didnt work. From what I remember, 3.1 has 2.0.6 cooked in, so its up to date, then I uninstalled, cleared caches, reinstalled, and still it was inop.

Reinstalled 3.0, which has WT pre9 cooked in, and it works like a charm...Updated to 2.0.6, works perfectly.

Odd to say the least... just trying to throw scenarios out there that may help someone, somewhere... anyways, back to watching replays of the Kentucky derby :)

I think this might actually be what Ric was referring to for the proxy fix:

Possible fix for wifi tethering issues:

Snagged this from the following thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=830153&page=116

Edit 01/28/11 12:35AM:

After I used the steps above, I find the following proxy setting:

HTTP PD Proxy Port: 8085

HTTP PD Proxy Address: pd.vog.sprintpcs.com

I am going to zero out both the port and proxy address and report back. I am not using Azrael right now, but if this fixes media streaming issues, maybe it can fix wifi tethering issues as well...

Edit 01/28/11 12:45AM:

Rebooted phone after setting the following:

HTTP PD Proxy Port: 0

HTTP PD Proxy Address: 0.0.0.0

Media streaming now works (last.fm used) where as it didn't before. I would suggest anyone with wifi tether issues try this to see if it works :)

Edit 01/29/11 12:25PM:

Just disabled the RTSP Proxy that Sprint set up. Media streaming seems to be working still and, from what I can tell is more responsive.

no 4G on my EVO running azreal 3.1

Hi fellas,

Could you help me figure out whether it is my phone/wimax radio or sprint problem?

I'm in orange county, CA. (at the block) standing next to a Clear wimax kiosk with strong signal for wimax. So I turn on the 4G radio on my EVO running Azreal v3.1, but it just sits there "scanning" and never locks on.

Do I need to update my wimax radio or do you think this is Sprint not turning on 4G yet in this area?

First I would check Sprint 4G coverage online, did you check to make sure you didn't write your wimax keys?
[EVO 4G Android Development] skyfox99:
Ric, if you need a tester for HDMI on your next release, let me know. I use HDMI frequently and am anxiously awaiting your next release.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stuck:
Hi skyfox99,

Thanks for taking the time to respond. I've search online and have reports of people in this city saying they have 4G. Here is a post from

http://community.sprint.com/baw/com...ss/4g/blog/2010/03/29/where-to-find-sprint-4g

stating:

But I'm not sure where to find an official Sprint 4G map

In any case, after I flashed the V3.1 rom, I haven't done anything with wimax. And I don't even know how to write my wimax keys, so I don't think I've written my wimax keys
[EVO 4G Android Development] sn0b0ard:
Backing up your wimax keys is as easy as installing Amon Ra Recovery or Clockwork and then doing a nandroid backup (selecting wimax backup) :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] stuck:
Thanks sn0b0ard,

I just booted into my RA recovery and hit Nandroid backup but it didn't give me the option for wimax backup.

In any case, do I need to have done that backup when I was on my stock rom?

If so I gotta go back to my old sd card and dig up that original nandroid backup
[EVO 4G Android Development] stuck:
I followed this procedure:

http://www.goodandevo.net/2011/01/how-to-backup-htc-evos-wimax-rsa-encryption-keys.html

and got a file that is 3.65M in my sdcard

But I am guessing that this doesn't have my RSA encryption unless I did the procedure on my original firmware (original nand backup) am I correct?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sn0b0ard:
I think you should be ok. Last time I did a nandroid without selecting wimax, it didn't back up the wimax.img file, so if you found that file, you may have found your RSA keys.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stuck:
Thanks sn0b0ard,

but what do I do with this key? how do I write this key to make my 4G work?
[EVO 4G Android Development] skyfox99:
Wait, be careful. Once your 4G keys are gone, you are unable to get them back. What version of RA are you using? Did you try Sprint's website?

http://coverage.sprint.com/IMPACT.jsp?ECID=vanity:coverage

And select 4G coverage and locate your area.

Are you familiar with using adb? There is a post about how to check your wimax keys. I will see ifs I can find it and link.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stuck:
http://www.goodandevo.net/2011/01/w...or-rsa-encryption-keys-on-rooted-htc-evo.html

THis is what I used to check that my keys are there.

I'm on RA v1.8

and I have used ADB before to do the rooting on my phone as well as removing some apps
[EVO 4G Android Development] skyfox99:
Www

If they were present then you should be ok there, no need to restore them. Did you check your WiMax MAC address? In the development forum there is a thread about that. If you are in a coverage area, you may want to look into that.

What version RA Recovery are you using?
[EVO 4G Android Development] stuck:
I'm using RA v1.8 and looking at the wimax Mac thread I'm still a little confused.

I have no MAC address in my EVO even though I've turned my 4G on in 4G area.

when I run

# wimax_mtd

I get normal/expected output with MAC address that match the Mac on the back of my phone in the battery compartment in correct format xx:xx:...etc.

and this command:

grep RSA /dev/mtd/mtd0

seem to yield expectd output as well...
[EVO 4G Android Development] skyfox99:
Have you run aLogCat to see what is actually going on when you turn on 4G? That will show you the activity. Since you know that you are in a 4G area, have you tried a different ROM? When you are looking at the 4G settings page, does it show scanning and then connecting? When you look at aLogCat you should see green with the WIMAX.

Rick,

I want to thank you so much for sharing your ROMS with everyone. I've tried 4-5 over the last few months and like yours the best. Oddly though, I personally like your 2.1 version better then the new 3.1. The main reason has to do with the mail app that's embedded. I've reviewed/did several searches within this thread before posting this subject. Version 2.1 could sync with my Comcast account and if I deleted an e-mail from my desktop, it would automatically delete itself from my EVO. I find this feature very useful. In your 3.0-3.1 versions of your ROM, the syncing feature is gone (not just in your ROM, but the other ones I tried too). I did an internet search, and found other people complaining of the same thing on their EVO's. Apparently HTC has changed something in their new releases and it changes pretty much everyone's newer ROMS. I guess my question to you is how hard would it be for someone like yourself to have the older mail app embedded in the newer ROM? I know you make your ROM's for yourself, but thought you might consider looking into this mail thing. On another note: I tried to put the HTC #15 kernel on your 2.1 ROM (to save battery life) and it worked very well except for one thing: Wifi would not transfer data back & forth. It would connect to my router, but would not function beyond that. I'm not complaining, nor asking for advice on that subject, it's just FYI.

Maybe you don't have time to look into the mail issue, and that's fine. I still love your 2.1 ROM and apprciate you sharing it with us,

Stash

Just tried my 4G in a green area on the map and I am getting the same result on the log.

I am starting to think it has to do with the old radio version that I have...

1.36.00.04.02

I'm thinking if I update it to 2.05.00.06.10 that I'll have better luck?

I saw somewhere that the HTC kernel #15 (which is used in azreal v3.1) doesn't work well with older radios
[EVO 4G Android Development] skyfox99:
Updating your radios may help, but make sure you back up the wimax partition specifically in recovery. That is the only way to restore your wimax if it gets wiped.
[EVO 4G Android Development] skyfox99:
1 mbps on 4G? I hope that is just testing speeds. I am here in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and I have seen 11.5 + mbps. I average around the 5-9 range in the outskirts where I live.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sn0b0ard:
lol, yeah that would be very upsetting if it was just 1mbps. I posted 1MB (Mega Byte) per second, which is around 8mbps (Mega Bits) per second.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sn0b0ard:
Did you try the steps in the Bad WiMax Mac thread yet? If that doesn't work, maybe try flashing your phone back to stock (rooted) 3.70.651.1, test wimax, if it works then back up your wimax.img in recovery, then try flashing back to which ever ROM you use?

Also, the ##3282# menu has some settings for wimax in there. I am not an expert by any means at this here, but maybe some settings are screwed up in there?
[EVO 4G Android Development] skyfox99:
That looks like you don't have 4G where ever you are to be honest. It doesn't look like anything abnormal. Have you tried going into a known 4G coverage area?

Does having the Sprint hotspot app break 4G?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
No, because I was using Azrael v3.1 on my Evo and my 4G works fine. Furthermore, I made no changes that would make 4G not work. There is no radio updates or anything in my ROM that would mess with 4G. If my ROM broke 4G, it would be broken on my Evo as well. It is not.

Thanks Rick,

I know it is definitely not your ROM, I just reflashed your v3.1 from scratch and 4G works fine, but as soon as I try to restore some apps using titanium it stopped working. So I know its one of my apps...

I hope I can eliminate down to which one. It takes a lot of time flashing back and forth.

BTW, should I have a2sd partition for all of your ROMs?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bwillet:
I don't have time to test it, but I have an ALMOST theory about why Wireless Tether might not be working with 3.1. I was one of the many that WT worked fine on all the versions of Azreal except 3.1. Tried multiple wipes/flashes, even not installing a single program and trying WT, would never work for me. Jump to an older version or Calkulin or MikFroyo and it worked fine, back to 3.1 and no-go. That was a couple of weeks ago that I did all that and gave up for a while, figured I would wait it out and one of the many smart folk here would figure out the fix and post it. When nothing really happened I thought I would try it again yesterday, and low and behold WT worked out of the box. I don't remember exactly what I did, but the only thing I did different was that I changed up the order of the things that I configured. I believe this time I connected to my home wireless network, downloaded a file, and then I was ABOUT to enable wireless tether to test it out, realized my wifi was on, went and turned it off, tried WT, and voila it worked. I tried it at least 4 times when 3.1 first came out to no avail, always wiped everything multiple times, and tried WT before installing any software or playing with Titanium Backup, but like I said, I did SOMETHING different than I usually do with my wifi. Maybe something isn't initialized the same in 3.1 but starting wifi (or something) fixes or starts it up, and then WT works? Like I said, don't know if I'm onto something or not, but maybe those who gave up on Az 3.1 and have time can play around with some combinations of wifi-ness and see what happens? Hope this ends up helping out, if not, sorry for the goose chase!

Also just remembered, I was on MikFroyo 4.4, set my http proxy stuff to 0.0.0.0 as documented in this thread, and then some time later re-flashed to Az 3.1 I would assume that would have been reset to defaults after wiping and flashing, but maybe it's only reset during a profile update? I know for a fact I did not change it back in 3.1 until after successfully testing WT... So two things different than I usually did.
