Nick and Coiledwire... MANY thanks!

Nick, I do appreciate your replies. Coiledwire, #2 fixed the problem. Now the data is running faster and I no longer have the 1x... 3G is back again! I was able to restore the nandroid just to confirm that everything was working well. Now, back to this ROM. So far, I like it a lot, very customizable!

THANKS again!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChefEAM:
It has probably been covered, but could you link me to the fix you mention in point (1)? Also, I tried to enter the ##3283# and it did nothing. Is there a fix I need to do to get the ## codes to work properly?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Good to hear you got it working.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Just to be clear you punched that into your phone pad right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
It's ##3282# (data), not 3283.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
Cool. Glad you got your speed back. That is one of those obscure settings that can make a world of difference. It make me wonder how many of us knew it was an issue before the 3g/1x mod.

Anyone got the zip for the new pri update that lets you roam on 3g all the time?

Sent from my CM 7 Monster Evol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChefEAM:
Yes, entered in the phone pad but it does nothing. Does not ask for MSL, just clears the number entry
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChefEAM:
That's what I meant to type, just hit a wrong key when I posted
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Mine did that before, but then it worked after a reboot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChefEAM:
Will try a reboot when I get home from work today and see if that works.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
2 questions.

1) "sent from iPad"? :eek:

2) How come you have to wait until you get off work to reboot? Not that it matters to me, just curious.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DevilInPgh:
I saw that I was getting a 1012 error when my phone tried to update the PRL and profile. When I flashed back to Stock, it was able to update the PRL. Is there a known problem in the MikFroyo ROM doing this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
I have been able to update profile and prl on mikfroyo, so I would assume that it's not a mikfroyo problem. Could be network problem? Have you tried to update with wifi?
[EVO 4G Android Development] DevilInPgh:
No, just 3G. I guess what I can do is a reflash of the ROM and Titanium restore to find the problem.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ChefEAM:
1) What can I say, I do love my Mac and my iPad. I also love my EVO, so no iPhone for me even if Sprint had one.

2) When I am in the middle of feeding a hundred or so golfers breakfast so they can make their tee times and then feeding them lunch again, plus checking in food orders, etc. I don't have time for much else. It's easier for me to just wait until I get home to mess with the phone. Plus I don't want to drop the EVO in a pot of grease or a batch of grits....I don't think that would qualify me for a replacement.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
I've had issues before using 3g, you might try wifi and see if you can that way.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mecampo:
jade it happens to me too, worked after a reboot. im just wondering if that can be fixed or better just leave it alone :)?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
I don't think that can qualify as an "issue". Probably better to just leave it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DevilInPgh:
Nevermind, I found the problem was in a setting that was backed up to Titanium, and I guess when I moved from my broken Evo to my new Evo, it didn't want to cooperate. Problem solved.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Well what setting? It might help someone else.

Are you restoring system data?

ROM Flashing help

could someone please help me out here? I am trying to flash MikFroyo 4.61 and for some reason its not working too well. This is not the first ROM I have flashed, although I don't consider my self a pro I am not a beginner. I am seeing two diff issues here first I am coming from Mik Z v 1.1, I have the ROM on the SD card and before I flash I clear dalvik/data and cache, then I flash the zip and it goes through the install and then I reboot, but it seems after it boots up that the way the phone looks is not like the ROM screen shots. I get the stock HTC sense lock screen and everything is stock but when I go to setting and about phone to check the SW that is running it is mikfroyo 4.61. oh and the wallpaper is the green one in the screen shots. I went back to mik z v 1.1 and tried to flash the rom from rom manager and after it was completed it rebooted and got stuck on the HTC EVO 4G screen. Now Im back on the mik z v 1.1 rom. Oh I also am running 2.6.32.27 Netarchy toastmod 4.3.4 cfs havs more no sbc with PRI 1.77_003 and NV the same. Can someone help me please, am I doing anything wrong here? Has anyone seen these issues before?

Thanks in advance
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
@ gk,

Well, first of all 4.61 comes bone stock in appearance right out of the box. There's a bunch of themes and mods available in themikmik.com site to make it how you want.

Second, many will say to not use rom manager and to use amon-ra instead. In rom manager's settings there's an option to use an alternate recovery (amon ra), try that to flash 4.61. Just one additional piece of advice, the nand backups between rom manager and amon ra are not compatible with each other.

Hope that helps some.

Sent on the go, from my evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
4.61 is actually a stock ROM from a theme/looks standpoint. What made it different was that Mik was able to do his magic to an odex'ed ROM, which no one had done before. You CAN head on over to themikmik.com where you'll find all sorts of mods/themes/rosie's/etc that can be flashed over the stock 4.61 ROM.

I'm running 4.61 w/ a black and blue theme, blue minimalistic clock and 4x5 rosie. All kinds of good stuff on Mik's site.

Hope that helps.

EDIT: Damn coiled, you got all that typed on your phone before I could type this up on my laptop. Couldn't agree more on the RomManager stuff. It's not so good on the EVO.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Thirdly I didn't see where you said you factory reset the phone. Wipe all except sdcard stuff.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
@ kc,

What can I say, great minds think alike. :)

And trying to beat jade to a post gives one a real sense of speed typing on a phone. :D

HELP

Something is wrong! The lock screen still looks just like regular sense, and I dont have the apps as shown in the video. Something isnt right! Help please! :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] jedarojr:
What theme did you flash? What lockscreen? This is a stock rom with mostly stock apps... What apps are you looking for?
[EVO 4G Android Development] blksith0:
Sorry, Im using the 4.6 (most recent) that I got from the external website forum. And I thought that it would have the cool themes and stuff built in to it. (As seen on the video posted in the 1st post). I wasnt aware that I had to do more for this. Any help on that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] blksith0:
Also AdFree is missing from 4.6, but thats not listed in the changelog. (Bug?)
[EVO 4G Android Development] jedarojr:
4.61 as it states is a completely stock rom that was mikoptimized so that it is faster and smoother than anything else without all of the garbage. A lot of stock apps are uninstallable via settings, and apps that can be downloaded on the market removed. Not everyone always likes every theme. By making an Odexed stock rom with customizable themes (found at themikmik.com), anyone can get what they want. So if you want stock, its there. If you want a blue theme, with a gingerbread keyboard...you can do it. If you want a transparent lockscreen with a red rosie, you got it. The list goes on. Bottom line is you have the best rom available for the EVO right now, that is ODEXED, and fully theme-able and customizable. If you want something that has more of the themeing "built in" try the chogardjr rom (which is based on 4.6 which is a stock mikoptomized rom).

Hope this helps
[EVO 4G Android Development] jedarojr:
Again, according to the changelog, apps that can be installed via the market anyways were removed ;-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Becoming:
To be fair, I noticed that the Kindle app was still in there when I flashed to 4.6.1 today and that's definitely on the market so I was surprised to see it there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jedarojr:
So is gmaps...so are a few others
[EVO 4G Android Development] blksith0:
Thanks guys :)

So are these pretty much the only themes to choose from?

--==LINK

is.gd[slash]m6v95m

--==LINK

(MOD = THEME? Difference?)

Sorry Im new to most of this. I just know that Odexed means that the jar files are extracted for easy theme-ing.

Thanks for bearing with me here :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
Go to themikmik.com

There are a ton of themes over there. Mods are generally a tweak or modification of the code/images to customize the experience or usefulness of a rom to your liking. Themes are mostly graphic changes to your phone that change the way it looks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BorLEH:
Was there a PRL update from sprint for EVO users?
[EVO 4G Android Development] blksith0:
Yeah like 3 months ago or something. It was a while ago.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nitrosilver:
Is anyone else running into the problem of not finding rosie settings in the app drawer?
[EVO 4G Android Development] BorLEH:
Ya that long ago...

I thought there was another one. A friend of mine told me, but I guess he was misinformed.

Thanks man! :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] nitrosilver:
so I have flashed both 4.61 and 4.6 and I cant find "rosie settings" in the app drawer anywhere :( plz help!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
The stock Rosie that comes with 4.6 and 4.61 is just the stock Rosie. Bo Rosie settings come with the rom. Head on over to themikmik.com to find Rosie mods and themes. Most of them will come packed with Rosie settings. I know the ones I made do.
[EVO 4G Android Development] OstrichSak:
Stupid question but I just rooted my Evo 4G and installed MikFroyo v4.61. It wasn't until after I installed it that I realized I needed an older version to get the cool themes and what not. I primarily wanted the battery indicator that shows a number for % remaining amongst a few other things. When will I be able to see this for v4.61 or should I flash an older ROM to do this? Hoping I won't need to flash an older ROM here and that I'm just missing something. Also, do these ROMs fix the issue where when connected to WiFi you can't send/receive MMS? I know that with the stock setup I had to disable WiFi to send an MMS and I also wouldn't receive any MMS whenever I was connected to WiFi which was very frustrating.

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] gooseleg:
I just installed it and I'm inpressed it's nice and smooth...
[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
Agree here. I get almost 18 hours of pretty heavy use (3 email accounts syncing, lots of texting, some time on the net etc). Over 24 hours if I dial down the data use some.

I'm using stock HTC #15 kernel and Mik's 4.2 rom (every time I start to flash a 4.3 another version comes out).

Swyped from my EVO
[EVO 4G Android Development] stricklerjosh:
Haven't noticed any lag yet but only running it for a few days now.

mikfroyo evo!
[EVO 4G Android Development] doorpz:
Just did another round of battery usage tests and it looks like the ROM has settled down now to around 30-35 hours per charge depending on usage. I've noticed the stock htc battery holds a 100% charge longer (about 2 hours with light usage) than the knock off replacements batteries I got (it's varied from 10 minutes to a hour). This setup has really low power usage when idle, I only lost 20% in 12 hours with light texting, emails and e-reading but then got an extended phone call and it dropped another 20% pretty fast. It still beats the hell out of any other combination I've ran so far.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jklong03:
Just curious, how are you doing these tests? Do you have multiple EVOs that you are running? I only have one, and no way I could set it aside just for testing :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] doorpz:
I just use Currentwidget from the market that logs your battery life automatically. It can also show all the programs that are running but then the logs are alot harder to read.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ma1993:
Im guessing I can not install the GoDmOdE-EVO kernal. I really want to fix the fps limit! Among the many fixes and improvements in it, there is one that applies to EVOs equipped with Epson display panels, which enables the FPS to go far past the 30 FPS limit imposed by HTC. So what can I do to get it without messing with MikFroYo? Would you have to include that in your ROM?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Becoming:
Uh, am I wrong that the fps limit removal was part of an update back in August? Therefore should be in this already? Or was it a kernel specific fix?

I'm not super familiar with the various hardware versions, but that was my impression...

Mik,

Love the new beta! Only issue that I have is I hate the signal status bars the way they are now. I would love to just have bad them like before: show more bars as the signal improves instead of white and then turning green. I sometimes look thinking I got lots of bars and then nothing! LOL

Can we get it back to regular signal bars?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:

[EVO 4G Android Development] maxisreed:
Long time lurker, first time poster. Best battery life I've gotten, hella fast ROM. Everyone should be trying this one, even Sense haters!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Nefariouss:
This has been a non issue for so long. It was fixed by dev's and has was included in kernals for the longest time. Then HTC fixed the issue and it's been standard as part of their kernals for several months now. There is no 30 fps issue anymore.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:

[EVO 4G Android Development] gkhercules:
Thanks guys, I guess I thought this was themed because of the first picture on the first post. Now that I got some more explanation I can re flash 4.61 and start adding different elements to it. Oh one more question, when I want to flash something new to 4.61 what should I always wipe? and does anyone know where I can get a themed GB keyboard? Again thanks a lot for the responses.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
As far as adding themes/ mods, I would wipe the caches.

The mik site has options for GB keyboards; from slightly themed to a more custom look. Have a look in the theme/mod section of 4.61, you should be able to find a few options. Good luck.
[EVO 4G Android Development] agentphantom:
You should wipe the cache and dalvik. As for keyboards,I would check themikmik site for your needs
[EVO 4G Android Development] OstrichSak:
Same here. Can someone please tell me specifically which items I need to obtain that look and the look from the YouTube reviews linked in the first post? I was disappointed to finish and find that it didn't look like what I was expecting. Then I scrolled down again to see you couldn't theme v4.6 and up and was even more disappointed. Then, I read I could indeed theme it like the previous version like I wanted but coking to the party late all the options are a bit overwhelming so if someone can spoon feed me on this first one on what I need and what steps to take (if it's a single theme then ROM Manager then I know how to do that) to make it phone look/behave like that I would greatly appreciate it.

Also, is there a way to disable the swipe to unlock entirely ala Droid X? Can I also disable the LED when charging so it's not a beacon at night when on the dock?

Thanks and I have to give you props because after owning a rooted Day for a year & a half w/countless ROMs I wasn't even going to root my Evo 4G until someone in another forum suggested I check out MikFroyo & I fell in love w/what I saw. I rooted this thing BECAUSE of your ROM. Nice work!
[EVO 4G Android Development] badassdes:
How can I add the 4G icon on the power widget bar?
[EVO 4G Android Development] OstrichSak:
Trying to search through this thread for my answer and all I'm finding is people asking the same question. A suggestion to the OP: put a note in the first post talking about v4.61 to say that it's not themed in any way & you need to install this theme, this mod & this Rosie to make it look like what all of the pics & video shows it will look like. All I can find is people w/the same disappointment and people saying to go to this site for TONS of options and I think that is actually the problem for us rookies (I'm not new to ROMs either BTW) is there is TOO many options and it's overwhelming and confusing. I think if you edit your first post to not only tell people this but also tell them exactly what items they need to install it will help a lot. Then people can go to the site to review different options to make changes here and there. But as an end user I can say I speak for many others based on what I'm reading that it's disappointing to root, flash a ROM only to arrive at a home screen that still looks mostly the same. Then, the research begins and you really can find the answers to the simple question you have. I searched this thread and all I find is people asking the same question and the same answer... see the mikmik site. I did that too and there's no simple answer there either. I can tell it's been a long process so for those who have been around a while it makes sense. For new people showing up to the party late it's all confusing and overhwleming. It would be nice if someone would change the first post to say 'Warning: if you choose the latest version it will NOT look like any of the pictures or videos posted. To obtain that look you will need to...' and then state specifically what needs to be installed and not say 'check out mikmik for TONS of options' because that's not helping us n00bs. Hopefully the OP reads this long winded reply because I think it will save lots of time for everyone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] agentphantom:
If I remember correctly, the version that was reviewed was 4.4 with the flat black and green theme. Check out this folder for the green, pink, red, and blue themes for 4.6. Save the file to your sdcard root, boot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik, select file from zip, and restart. Good luck.

[EVO 4G Android Development] blksith0:
Completely agree 100%. Im in the exact same position here. Very disappointed.

Do you update themes the same way you flash roms? i.e. picking the ZIP in the list from recovery?
[EVO 4G Android Development] agentphantom:
yes, 10char
[EVO 4G Android Development] OstrichSak:
Awesome, thanks. So I download the green file, run recovery and install. Easy as that, right? Is this also how I get the 4x5 home screens or is that something else? What about this Rosie thing? I still don't get that but do I need to do something with that whole thing to get the same effect as what's in the video/pictures? I like that look and being able to customize the right app tray thingy.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
@Ostrich..Welcome aboard to MikFroyo, I was the one that recommended you on Android Forums. Sorry you are frustrated. The root of your frustration and everyone else's frustration is the exact reason why there is http://themikmik.com, this thread is very hard to search and find things.

Here's a link to 4.6x themes/mods/tweaks/etc forums. That's the main list of forums for Mik 4.6x.

Here's a link to the main theme's/mods/tweaks forum where you will find all the things you need to make your ROM run the way you want.

FYI Mik4.6x was made stock out of the box to allow for people to be able to pick and choose all the different themes/mods/tweaks they wanted rather than Mik making you have one. That way you if you a want stock ROM you've got it, if not you can flash whatever you would like to make it the way you want. Be sure to read all the OP's over there regarding which mod/theme/tweak you want.

If you like blue I would highly recommend this theme here, it's a wonderful theme and has the 4x5 workspace/app drawer/battery perct/etc all included. And quite honestly if you like that theme just flash this ROM here and you will get all that in one flash. It's Chogardjr's ROM that is based on Miks 4.6x ROM with his theme at much more cooked right into it. When I flash that ROM the only other thing I need to flash is my kernel and I am usually done.

The site over there seems overwhelming guys but it's really not that bad once you get used to how it's organized. It's much easier to search for your stuff over there. Feel free to register and ask questions over there. You will typically get responses in under an hour and quite honestly more often than not it will only take about 10 minutes for someone to respond to your question.

Sorry for your frustration guys but I assure you everything you want/need is over at http://themikmik.com.

Again Ostrich welcome aboard, I hope I answered some of your questions and helped you out.:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] jdeloach:
Just download green, reboot in recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache, flash green theme and reboot. It will give you the custom rosie and you can change the right button in rosie settings app.
[EVO 4G Android Development] badassdes:
At the beginning I was a little frustrated too but all I did was ask and the guys here (like Nick) responded quickly with the answers I was looking for. So this is a 1+ on this thread. The Mik Forum has been VERY helpful. I have been flashing ROMs since Sept of last year constantly, specially since I was using AOSP ROMs (CyanogenMod nightlies) but I basically stopped and stayed with this one. Very stable, fast, everything works AND it's very customizable. Keep the good work guys!
[EVO 4G Android Development] blksith0:
Well that answers one question, but then how do you get a custom battery indicator up top?
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
Have a look around the other site. I could explain where to go and what to do, but I really think you would be better served by looking around there and seeing what's available and how to install it.
