Azrael X v2.1 out later tonight!

Here is a list of changes.

Market issue fixed (not my error, but experimented and think I found a "cure". :))

Updated apps have names fixed, changed back to same name as default names of .apk files (prevents themes from causing multiple instances of apps, then FCing)

Fixed Wireless Tether issues

Fixed Hulu

Customized HTC_IME MOD changed to my own custom one

Added Tun.ko to system/lib/modules (helps Tether, allows use of OpenVPN, etc.)

I will have the same format as now with Director's Cut versions available as well.

I am working on them, uploading later tonight. :cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] Vandelay007:
Awesome! I can't wait to flash it and check it out....this is def my favorite evo rom!

Saawwweeeeeeet!

Launched from my EVO using XDA app.

Can't wait to try out 2.1 :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] strongsteve:
Will we be able to flash 2.1 over 2.0 without a complete wipe? I hate redoing my widgets.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
No, sorry. You can try it but you are inviting grief! :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] IMSciFi:
2.1

Will 2.1 include the updates that the 2.0 update was supposed to? Any time I tried to update 2.0 I was stuck in boot-loop.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jbcarrera:
The wait is killing me i had to unroot then reroot my phone so i'm stock right now
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
You mean will 2.1 contain the updates that 2.0 update had? Yes.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Laurido92:
Ok, so if I already have the 2.0 patch do I still need to install v2.1?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
I would advise it. The patch does not fix market issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mshnayde:
Azrael,

Any plans for an HD ROM. Seems to be all the rage. Also, I don't know if it's possible but the battery seemed definitely better with 3.29. Wonder what you think / experience has been.

:)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ElectricWraith:
I flashed the ROM and Azrael X theme this weekend, no problems so far other than battery drain. I've got 0003 hardware, didn't wipe the battery stats when I flashed, so I'm going to let it drain completely. I'll wipe the stats, charge it, then see how fast it drains.

The one problem I did have was trying to flash the Riptide9-based theme. It gave me an error when it couldn't locate the Sprint_VVM.apk. I'm not sure what's going on here, I don't recall uninstalling VVM, my voicemail works fine, and it didn't get moved by Apps2SD. I found a copy of the .apk, but I can't move it to the /system/app folder where the theme is expecting it to be.

Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
Why can't you move it? Don't have permission? If that's the case use root explorer to copy it and navigate to where it needs to be. Once there tap the r/w button at the to so you can change things in the system. Now you can paste it. After you paste it make sure to tap the r/w button to change it back to r/o so you don't mess something up by mistake
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
I have 2 evos - one rooted on 002 and the other stock not rooted on 004

ive tried fresh and this rom - and am currently on this one -

HAS ANYONE TRIED HDMI OUT ? i cant get it to work on my rooted EVO but it works on the non rooted..

Hey guys, is the wallpaper that ships with this ROM available to download separately?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jbcarrera:
first page but it replaces your current htc wallpapers
[EVO 4G Android Development] mshnayde:
Is 2.1 out and I am just not finding it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mountainbyker:
Thanks, I should have seen that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] d4sheriff:
I don't believe Rick has released it yet.... I thought I read a few posts back that someone offered him use of their server for his updates from now on.... not sure if he accepted the offer... but when he releases the update it will be in the first post...
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
I keep running into a snag...I am not able to fix the market download issues. I am trying a few more things to see if I can get the market issues to go away. I am not sure if it is the Market version, or if it is a problem with the market itself that is unsolvable (at least on the software side).

Tonight or tomorrow morning at the latest. Sorry for the delay but I would rather do it right rather than rush it for the sake of getting it out there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] d4sheriff:
Rick I am not sure what the issue is, but I have market issues with downloads and I then launch google talk, let it sign in and my downloads start working... It does not always install on the first go, but after several attempts the program will install finally.... not really sure what google talk has to do with it either...but seems to make it work...
[EVO 4G Android Development] lmatth13:
Market Fix

My solution to market download issues was to go to setting>Application>Manage applications.... select the all tab

1. Clear the Market's cache & data

2. Clear the Download Manager's cache & data

3. Clear DM Commands Service's cache

4. Clear AppBrain's cache & data(if you use AppBrain)

Since doing these steps i haven't had any Market download issues. All download start and finish on first attempt.

Someone please tried this and report back if it worked for you.

Hey just was wondering which kernel worked better for the evo with this rom #10 or #17 i wanna strech battery life as much as possible and if anyone had the link or the zip file for #10 im runnin #17 now

Andy
[EVO 4G Android Development] killhr:
Can you use your wallpaper zip on other roms
[EVO 4G Android Development] dd4502:
That's what makes you better than the rest. Sittin tight till you work out the kinks. Can't wait.....

[EVO 4G Android Development] hoghead1987:
Thank You!

I have an 0003 hw evo. This rom works great. I tried the one for hardware 0001 2 & 3 and my camera did not work. Flashed the one for 00004 and some 0003 hardware and it works great. This is a really nice rom. If I try some of the recommended kernels my camera does not work. I guess they are not compatable with the newer evo's. Anyway, this rom runs flawlessly on my evo and I am really happy with the battery life. Everything just works and works good.

Thanks for all the hard work!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Helton566:
Im not having any problems at all. Battery life is great. Its like an Iphone everything just "works".

45:05:00 uptime 10:37:00 awake time with 55% battery left. 3500mah battery. Just frickin awesome!

Sent from this smooth Azrael X 2.0 ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
Have you got a handle on what's causing this Rick? It seems odd to me that only some are affected by this issue. I'm running 003 hardware with the older camera chip. Azrael right out of the box. No themes, no titanium, no market issues at all. Just wondering what the common thread might be.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Laurido92:
So far I've had no problems either. Uptime is 69:38, Awake time is 21:59. Just an awesome rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Alvaro051:
This custom rom rocks man. Thanks for the hard work and the step-by-step guide for us newbies. Keep up the work we all appreciate it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wsschappell:
Just flashed this rom after using Fresh, so far much better ROM. Thanks!

Updated Amon Ra recovery and all is well.

Might want to put a link to the Amon Ra 1.8 thread in the first post :).

Hey Rick, so are you saying that Azrael 2.41 is better overall for our older evos? I'm confused.
[EVO 4G Android Development] yubby:
I have tried to reinstall and no luck

sent from my evo
[EVO 4G Android Development] islandreamer:
First thanks for all your work! I am currently running 2.41 with Baked snack battery #6 kernel with Riptide's V8 theme. Do you know of any incompatibilities associated with this setup? will be upgrading to2.5 this evening or in the morning, again thanks for all your hard work!!

Edit:

Does 2.5 change the splash screen at all and if it does how can I take the one from 2.41 and put it into 2.5. Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Yes, please see the second post on here.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DrRyder:
Wow. I didn't realize that using 3.30 on my 0003 Evo was gonna be so bad. Now I know why my battery sucks so much. I'm going to try downgrading to 3.29 and see what happens. Thanks for that info.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
I am not aware of any incompatibilities with that setup, please let me know if you experience any. Nandroid before you do anything just to be safe; if anything gets messed up you can just Nandroid back.

It changes the boot animation. I will be posting boot animation options soon.
[EVO 4G Android Development] R32_Rocky:
Rick, did you mean 2.5, but typed 2.4 by accident? I think that is where the confusion is.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Yes sorry, 2.5.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
You are not the only one to say that.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mshnayde:
So what changed from 2.4 to 2.5 and what's going to be in the director's cut?

I tried locating the old thread but couldn't.

2.5 seems to be running well but could easily downgrade if it's going to be faster.

Running 4.2.1 kernel and all seems well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] starkillers:
was about to nandroid back to 2.41... thanks for clarification... on 2.5 now and still getting ridiculous battery drain. spare parts shows nothing unusual and wiped everything clean before installing. could it be as i just redid this from scratch this afternoon that the kernel just needs to settle in?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
You may need to recalibrate your battery. That is what I did and battery life is amazing now.

Look at my guide in my signature, on the bottom of the first post is full instructions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] starkillers:
did that once and just redid again... will report back after it fully drains as i just charged it to 100 then wiped stats. hopefully that works.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jbcarrera:
Is anyone else having issues with force closes on internet and xda? They just happen randomly for me.

The browser is stock (3.29) and the XDA app is the latest. I used both today and not a problem.

ive experienced quiet the difference with 3.30 on a 0003 hardware....

with the newest htc #17 kernel, i got 19 hours of battery today...

pretty short of amazing..

the kernel FLIES.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Yeah, it is very possible some Evo's will favor the new HTC # 17 (even older ones) but for my 0003 EVO 3.30 was raping my battery.

I've flashed the Hulu fix (twice) but the hulu app still says device not supported when I select a video. What am I doing wrong?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bukonine:
A buddy of mine has this same issue, here is what he did:

1) Uninstall all Flash updates (Settings --> Applications --> Downloaded --> Flash --> Remove Updates)

2) Installed the 2.0 patch

this may or may not work for you, in this example, there were updated applied to flash which render the Hulu app inoperable for playback.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jimbobtexas:
Sorry, but my battery can't make it half a day. I've tried all the tricks, too. I have a stock battery, not some 7500 GaH brick in the back of my phone. This is frustrating to see a very few people boast of scores of hours without recharging, only to have my battery drop 10% every 30 minutes. I bet I'm not alone. I've tried the Azrael-supplied kernel and the stock kernel. Stock is slightly better, but only just.

It may not be the ROM, it could be the kernal, and it's probably some app, but it's hard to tell. I'm a very heavy user, with a car dock and a charger in my office. I have TWO spare batteries and a charger, and it's not unusual for me to run through all 3 batteries in a day.

In the car, I run Pandora, make phone calls, and use Navigator. It still charges, but it's almost a break-even proposition. At work, I text and get email. Period. I get almost 100% coverage on the mobile, and I typically am in 4G coverage, even though I have that, bluetooth, and GPS disabled - unless I need it.

Here are some cool pluses with this ROM: GPS picks up almost instantly, and wireless tether is flawless. It's FAST, it's sexy, and is the envy of Android nerds. But I GOTTA find out what's up with the battery life.

Somebody back me up here. Am I the only one?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Well I am not sure but I am not only a developer, I am a user of my own ROM. I run a lot of apps, talk on the phone a lot, and really use the heck out of my phone.

My phone lasts all day and night and then some.

Could be the kernels. I do advise you to try the new version of my ROMS, available now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Azrael 2.1 available for download now

I updated the first post, will add more to it tomorrow but the information is mostly up to date.

Screenshots available tomorrow too. I did a lot today, basically made 6 ROMS and had to upload all of them!

I wanted to use the FTP but for some reason I cannot get the links to work so I had to use Multiupload again. Will talk with the nice person who gave me FTP access about it :)

I like it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Trident:
Would someone post a link to the thread that discusses this? I saw it, but didn't think to bookmark it.

I remember it was something like 1) Charge to 100% for 8hrs; 2) Unplug and turn off and charge while off for 1 hr; 3) Turn on and.... don't remember. :rolleyes:

Ah. A quick Google search found it.

If anyone else is interested, look here.

I'm going to do this tomorrow when I flash AX2.1DC.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mountainbyker:
Just flashed after wiping X2. Titanium crashed when attempting to restore apps. Crashes on the very first one. Causes HTC logo to pop up then back to home screen. I tried using appbrain to restore a bunch of apps and then tried titanium for the remainder with no luck. Also tried restoring just apps (user) without data also to no avail. Anyone had this issue before?

Thanks - Paul
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Yes, because you did not hit problems? in Titanium backup and download Busybox 1.60. Do that and it won't happen. Please make sure you read the second post too, I have it there for a reason :)

Trust me, I thoroughly tested this one to prevent as many problems as possible. TB is not a problem, you need to do that with any ROM that does not use Busybox 1.60.
[EVO 4G Android Development] imlboy:
I downloaded the new version and flash it onto my new EVO 4G. Have done it for 4 times already but every single time I flashed it, it ended up with this error

any suggestions for the fix?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
You using Clockwork or an older version of Amon Ra?

It is either that or bad downloads. So far to me it looks like incomplete downloads, it is trying to install what is not there thanks to not all files present so it throws an error.

You cannot fix what is not broken. Notice others using ROM fine? It is something going on in your end. I will help you best I can.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mconigs78:
Awesome rom man. Been waiting all day for you to post it. And thanks for adding the 2.3 kb. Just curious how did you come up with the Azrael X name?
[EVO 4G Android Development] imlboy:
I use Amon Ra 1.8, which is the newest one.

I'm downloading the ROM again and give it another try.

I just don't know why it's just your ROM that I cannot flash. Both this and the Stock Turbo ROM, both end up with the same error code.

That was it, thanks! Really appreciate the quick response.

BTW - I've tried nearly every ROM out there, sorted by most posts in the forum. This one has the most responsive UI by a mile; curious how it differs from the others?

Also, do you have any plans to provide an option to remove haptic feedback from the dialer?

What theme you running? Any custom kernel?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
I am not sure why some are having problems and others are not with the Wirelesss Tether. I am getting to the point where I am not going to include it in my ROMS anymore, yet always offer the option.

Either way though, thanks for the great ROM ricsim!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Trident:
Insane how fast and smooth this ROM is. I'm using Ziggy's latest Beta CFS kernel so I can OC a little.:D Great work!

I know you don't want to hear this... but I'll just throw it out there. I used to be able to change the text on the notification bar to put my name there- for some reason, on the last two versions of your ROM, when I put the Azrael theme there I can't change that text any more. Care to share your secret as to what file you modified to put Azrael there?

Happy holidays!
