I'm using SetCPU just to set my minimum to 128 and my max to 1190...no profiles setup, left it on conservative mode... using netarchys kernel listed in my SIG... so far so good... was on GO! chat for facebook and it kind of raped my battery as in over 10% per half hour, dont know if its the app or what... before I've used kingxclick's #11 kernel in the past.

I just love how smooth this rom is!
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
Yup. As for the recovery, Amon_Ra is pretty strongly recommended.
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:

You need to update Gmail before you use it.

Being an older base, this has an older version of Gmail. If you try and use it without first updating it, you may get FC issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] starkillers:
wiping full and reinstalling again as i am still getting rapid battery drain. Is there something in titanium backup that I am restoring that can be causing this? Or anything I shouldn't restore from tb?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Without knowing what you run or have backed up, it is impossible for me to answer that question.

Sorry.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
unless you can't live without your high scores, i wouldn't use it. i only use it back up incase i have issues with my current ROM. otherwise the only thing i restore is SMS messages
[EVO 4G Android Development] starkillers:
besides my apps im just restoring contacts, sense setup, email accounts... could those be causing drain?
[EVO 4G Android Development] starkillers:
no worries on high scores... dont have many games just angry birds...lol

i do use it to restore my sense setup and restore my dolphin browser with bookmarks, contacts and my sense setup.
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
No problem. Just a little monotary gratitude. :D

Directors cut... sweet. Will definitely be checking it out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
Update it how? In the marketplace it doesn't show an update available. I tried going to settings-apps-manage apps and clear data but when I cleared it I couldn't open gmail at all
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
Try to open it again. First time doesn't work after the wipe for some reason.
[EVO 4G Android Development] R32_Rocky:
I had that problem too. I think it is caused by the newer 1.17 version of busy box, cause when I clicked on "problems" and let it install the older 1.16 BB, then restore was working again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] R32_Rocky:
Is there any way to get back just a few of the original HTC wallpapers? I like the red/yellow/blue bubbles static one like the animated live one.

Also, where can I find the older Az themes at? I really love this new one, except for the clear taskbar and rosie. Makes it hard to see some of the items (especially the time) if there is a white background.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Working on it, making Azrael Director's Cut now as we speak.

Spoken like a true Chicagoan from "da Heights" ;)

HEY! I resemble that remark! :o
[EVO 4G Android Development] winkynatedog:
Hey sorry if this question has been answered I'm probably joining the convo a little late. I know they just came out w/ the EVO in white a few weeks ago are these the EVO's that have the 0004 hardware or is it all EVO's that came out a few weeks ago?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
I have a white Evo and mine came out in July.

Please see the first post about how to check your hardware version.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
LOL on both counts. Nice hehe
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jbcarrera:
its cause you have the new hardware for the camera. It has been said time and time again if you have the new hardware for the camera no other kernel besides HTC#10 and 17 will work on your phone without breaking the cam.
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
003 isn't the new hardware. 004 is. I'm running 003 and can use any Kernel out with no camera issues. Plus like I posted earlier the newer hardware version with the older ota wouldn't cause that type of problem anyway, not from what I've read anyhow. It was an issue with the camera interacting with third party apps that the 3.30 ota with the newer kernels addressed. That's not his problem. There is something else going on.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmsmeltzer2000:
Get this straight....

Gadgetmonger, Some of us out here have the 003 with the new hardware which requires the newer kernel versions. I am among the few with this combination. There are a few 003 devices I believe after late Oct. early Nov. and all 004 with the new camera hardware. From what I've tested almost any ROM will work with the new hardware when coupled with a new HTC#17 kernel. I belived the HTC#10 kernel worked on mine also, although when flashing a new kernel flashing the HTC#17 is the way to go anyway!:D I'm running Ricsim78's OmegaEVO ROM with the included HTC#17 kernel, this is so far the best for my device for speed and the awsome battery life. It also includes the new 3.30.651.3 build. I would recommend anyone with the new camera hardware with the 003, 004 build run this!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
I had posted that I thought this was the case but that I also believed since all hardware versions were running the 3.29 base prior to the 3.30 release and the issue addressed wasn't a non working camera, but interaction between the camera and 3rd party apps that running the newer hardware version with the older kernels shouldn't cause a completely unusable camera. You're saying this is incorrect? The newer hardware version is completely incompatible with the older kernels or any custom kernels out? If the hardware is completely incompatible how is it that the 3.29 based Evos can run the new kernels?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jbcarrera:
thats right only stock kernels that came with 3.30 release are working for the came on new hardware its been addressed multiple times in the forums, and since HTC hasn't released the source codes yet that means no custom kernels for any phone with OEM 3.30
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
So myn is giving his users a bum steer in his op where he has alternative custom kernel recommendations for his 3.30 build? I must be missing something. Don't want to sound like an ass, just trying to understand. I didn't see anywhere that he warns that custom kernels would break anything?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jbcarrera:
i think he is telling people about alt. kernels for older models but at the same time all Devs need to do like Rick and offer the stock kernel for people with newer hardware so everything works. At the same time I don't think all devs know about this stiuation most of them are to busy with the development of their roms so sometimes its up to us to figure it out for ourselves.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmsmeltzer2000:
Yep, we just have to wait on HTC to release the Newer Kernel so we can bake up a custom kernel for use with the new hardware devices like mine! Can't wait, I want to be able to overclock mine!!! ;)

P.S. if you don't use the camera (some people don't), and you have the new camera hardware, you can use a custom kernel and overclock/undervolt...... This does not "BREAK" the camera, it just renders it useless for the time being. You can always flash a new kernel anytime. :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Android Development] jmsmeltzer2000:
RIGHT ON!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
Well I agree there. I've scanned over many op's just now and while every one seems to be using the 3.30 build nobody is warning that custom kernels will break the camera. In fact many, netarchy for example includes one of his own kernels in his 3.30 based rom with no mention of any camera issues. He even specifies that everything works. I know there's many who are complaining of poor battery life and such after mingling older hardware and newer kernels and visa versa, but I haven't seen where people are having their camera rendered unusable.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jbcarrera:
yeah its weird where newer kernels work with older hardware but older kernels don't work with newer hardware i guess the hardware is totally incompatable with older kernels
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
Yeah. Guess that's why I'm not a developer. :D Good to know though. Doesn't affect me personally but it's good to have the right info to pass on to others. Thanks for the heads up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mshnayde:
General question.

Hey guys just a general question. Thought I would ask in this Forum as Azrael and users of this ROM are great at responding to all questions.

How do I get the phone to vibrate when you get a text message.

If the profile is sent to vibrate than it vibrates when it rings but not when you get a text. Also it doesn't ring at all if it's plugged into the computer -which could be normal behavior but tend to miss lots of calls and texts that way.

Thanks for any help or pointing me in the right direction.
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
Which message app are you using? If it's just the stock its in msg / menu/settings. Check vibrate under notifications.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mshnayde:
Yup, just stock,

WIll try this. But it was already checked.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
You also need to go into settings (from the home screen) then sound and the 3rd or 4th option is vibrate. That need to be checked also
[EVO 4G Android Development] n1ghtl1fe:
hey guys anyway to change the stock bottom launcher bar to something else like the stock one? any help would be great
[EVO 4G Android Development] Laurido92:
Here are some screenshots of my battery usage.

Awesome ROM!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tdusen:
I'm have a problem with the music player. A resume play after pausing restarts from the beginning instead of where it was paused.

This has been a hit or miss issue. Some roms (RefinedEVO 1.04) resume correctly and some don't (Azrael X). Any thoughts on what optimization breaks this feature?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ElAguila:
This rom really rocks. Thanks a lot. I also want to thank whomever it was that posted a few pages back about using setcpu with a havs kernel. I don't remember who it was but your advice was dead on. If you use a kernel with havs don't use setcpu. I was and my battery life was iffy at best. I am running a kernel with havs and no setcpu and battery life is great. If I run a non-havs kernel with setcpu the battery life is good.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Could well be the kernel. It should be noted it does work on mine but I am using King's #11.

None of my optimizations should interfere with the music player.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Why don't you install the Azrael stock version? Wipe cache and Dalvik and install that version. Then you will have the stock Rosie.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
For your first question, go into the messaging app and hit menu>Settings> then make sure Vibrate is checked.

For your second, if you use your phone in disk drive mode when it is attached to the computer, the ringtones do not work because your SD card is attached to the computer. Basically it is the same as unmounting your SD Card.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Azrael X v2 is being worked on right now....it is currently in the beta testing stage and so far I have seen increased battery life from the current Azrael X.

Looking to release it tomorrow.

Holy sh**! Your definitely feeding my flashing addiction:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
Sweetness... :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Haha :D

I am from here on out (until the OTA get united) coming out with two different ROMS.

Both will use the 3.30 OTA but one will be made for 0003, 0002, and 0001 Evo's. The other will be made for 0004 and some 0003 (the ones that have the new camera chip).

This way my users get to use what works best for their Evo and no one is left out.

One version will have the HTC #11 kernel (best for 0003, 0002, and 0001) and the other will have the HTC #17 (best for 0004 Evo's and the 0003 Evo's with the new camera chip).

I think you will really appreciate the new version. I am going to start also making a few different ROMS so you can use what you want :)

It only gets better from here :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] starkillers:
Will we be able to flash right over or will we have to do a full wipe? Also will we get a stock version like azrael se?
[EVO 4G Android Development] lmatth13:
Beside the kernel and OTA are you putting any other cool surprises in the new update? how about in the notification bar putting the ability to change you settings (wifi, sound on/off, GPS, 4G, Auto sync)
[EVO 4G Android Development] nYdGeo:
Awesome! I know that my Evo is hardware version 003, and is an early one so I doubt that I have the new camera chip. However, is there a way to tell for sure? I want to make sure that I get the correct version of X2.

This next question I ask in the hopes that maybe you can answer it.

Preface: I've noticed that regardless of who's research and testing that you look at, it is the screen time that is always the largest consumer of power, by far.

I've also noticed that while I obviously want full brightness outdoors in sunlight, sitting here in my well lit office, the level set by the Automatic Brightness control is far too bright. Its like that using that in-store brightness setting that all LCD TV's have, but in your living room at night.

Using the "Brightness Toggle Widget" I find that one-touch from Dim is perfect, which I'm guessing to be about 20%. My battery lasts considerably longer using this setting and I can use it for anything except outdoors in bright natural light.

Question: If someone were to add a method to allow the user to alter the Automatic Brightness curve to where that generic indoor/normal lighting setting was say 20% instead of 40% or whatever it is, would that likely have to be added to the core OS by Google, more something that HTC would handle, and/or is it something that could be designed and built into a customer ROM?

I know that CM6 has settings for this, but I have no idea how it works or how well.

Regardless of the Q&A above, thank you for your efforts in making the Evo experience far more enjoyable, and thank you for your time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Helton566:
When will these be ready? I an using virus Rom now with kings #11 and getting good life but it could be better.

Sent from my XxVirusxX Rom
[EVO 4G Android Development] tdusen:
I used the kernel that's included in your zip. I think it was the netarchy 4.2.1. That's the same kernel that I'm using with Refined EVO 1.04. So, I don't think it's the kernel that causes this.

I was thinking that maybe something like moving that cache was the cause.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tdusen:
if you do, please make it an option. I'd rather not have the settings in the notification pulldown.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Incorrect. Working here and cache is moved (using Azrael X v2.0)

Did you wipe your SD:Ext before you installed the ROM?

I am playing a song right now...let it play for 20 seconds....Now pausing...opened messages...back to music player...song still paused @ 20 second mark....playback resumes at 20 second mark...21...

I am not always right, but when I make the ROM likely I know what can be the cause of problems (especially since I have not sharing the same problem).

Try using the included cache cleaner and see what happens.

Can't wait. Can you please update your header with the current date. That's how I scan to find the most current info. I like your work the most and I hope you have this Rom and camera issues figured out. I saw that you and another dev. have been discussing this issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Azrael X v2.0 Release notes:

Here is some list of the changes:

3.30.651.3 base used for both versions

HTC #11 kernel stock for Azrael X v2.0 for hardware 0001-0003 (AWESOME battery life!)

HTC #17 kernel stock for Azrael X v2.0 for hardware 0004 and 0003 with the new camera chip

Tweaked for more speed (yes I wrenched some more speed even with stock kernels)

Hulu included (and fixed the Adobe Flash for it as well)

All apps updated.

Maybe some thing will be added by release time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Helton566:
Nothing like a little teaser. lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] starkillers:
Will we get stock version and is this flashable without a full data wipe over azrael x se?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Stock version: Yes

Flashable over X: Not recommended

Please wait until after I release it before asking a bunch of questions about it. You will see all in the first post as always.
[EVO 4G Android Development] n1ghtl1fe:
anyway to add the 3g and 4g tower tweaks inside ava froyo v10? i like your rom better but i do notice slightly better data when on ava.

Also is there anyway to get a flashable zip to revert the bottom launcher bar to stock rosie one the evo comes with? not crazy about the small black one included on ur rom hmmMmm

great stuff tho man thanks for all your hard work!
[EVO 4G Android Development] starkillers:
His post above states he will make a stock version that will have stock rosie.
[EVO 4G Android Development] za33ck:
i got that htc ime mod skinned thanks btw, but dont forget for this new rom to add the mod to the data/app not the system/app, it will not be such a problem for others if they also would like to change the keyboard skin, great work, im pumped for the new rom :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] Novarider:
Just curious why are you going back to the htc kernel? Was the netarchey kernel not working correctly?

I don't have an SD:Ext partition.

I think I didn't explain my issue completely. Try this: play something, pause it. then reboot. restart the music player. It will show the correct paused position, but when you press play it starts from the beginning.

Any way to get the launcher fro omega on the stock version of this Rom, but with the right button remaped for browser.

It would be most appreciated.

great job on the rom.... quick question, do I need to install the radio and wimax stuff or does the rom have the latest versions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
You need to update them yourself, I would never include a radio or wimax with my ROMS.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Thank you, please enjoy and let me know if your battery life is good.

I moved the camera files from the 3.29 OTA to the 3.30 Base so your cameras ought to take good pictures too :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Correct, the only change as far as appearance is the Rosie..now it is a clear version of the stock one :) If you plan on using a theme (besides my Azrael X) might be better to use stock edition. Riptide should work fine though, but changes stuff.

Sorry to report that v2.0 has the same issue (for me, at least)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ElAguila:
Anybody else having problems connecting to multiupload?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
Now that you explained it, it might be the cache move.

The pluses far outweigh the minuses. Trust me. Without my tweaks, Azrael would not be Azrael.

I would not consider that an issue. Why would you pause a song and restart it anyhow? :p

In any case, I do not consider it an issue. Nothing I would work to fix.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricsim78:
There is a bunch of mirrors...hence why it is called Multiupload. :p

try another, keep refreshing until you get it. Likely the downloads are getting hammered.
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
I've had my music player act the same way, but not with Azrael X or Azrael X v2... Just tested and it resumes where I paused. Why? Don't know. Haven't done anything to the rom. Just fyi.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ElAguila:
I meant the main download page. The link for the directors cut is :

http://www.multiupload.com/MYPYHX877N and that is the page that is not loading so I am not seeing the mirrors. I think their site may have went down. It loaded when I wanted to download the standard version but then when I tried the dc version it won't load.

I did some more tweaks under the hood (increased VM size, etc.) so you should see a bit of a speed bump (especially with the Spare Parts window and animations on fast).
