Flash Player and Hulu

Hi all, I'm still running Mikfroyo 4.4 (If it ain't broke, I don't fix it usually..) but I keep getting tired of seeing the market ask me to update Flash player.

Would anyone know if copying the hulu and flash apks from the 4.5 release be all that i needed to update my 4.4 version? (Assuming I copy to the /system/apps folder, reboot, wipe caches etc..)

I could just bite the bullet and update Flash normally but while I don't use Hulu much, I know the minute I do, I'll end up wanting to use it.

Or is there a better way to update Flash and retain Hulu ability?

Also I suppose I should ask, is the version of Flash in 4.5 current now, or did Adobe throw a newer version out and the whole question is moot?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Ok so what you and localguy are telling me is that mik's red theme will work with v4.5 and the 4X5 widget from post 4? I did try that and it boot looped on me. I will however give it a try again, maybe I didn't do it in the right order and what not. I'm looking to do full wipe and reflash again anyway. Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mijjah74:
Got a question for Chorgard's clock mods. Can these be flashed over Mik 4.5 default themed clock or will it screw things up? Really getting things the way I like, so don't want to mess something up, if I can help it. Really like the minimalistic red and blue clocks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aaronw143:
I haven't had one problem flashing any of them... Do a nandroid and flash away! Then is doesn't matter if it messes up

This is my EVO, there are many like it, but this one is mine...

For some reason, I've been having problem restoring nandroids with Amon Ra 2.3, so don't completely trust it. But will have to make do. Thanks.

Hey Chogardjr, is there a way of getting the blue keyboard like you have in your chogardjr Blue Theme? Like this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vopwriter:
Slow night so I'll post; pushed the Market App thru Root Explorer and it worked perfectly (of course.)

As always, just showing appreciation Aamikam. Thanks button pushed. You're the man. Study hard and get some sleep here and there, fella. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
Really? I've been doing a TON of tinkering and nand restoring with 2.3 and I've yet to have a single one fail on me. Anyway, clocks are a separate entity from framework, so flash away. If it doesn't work or you don't like it, flash another one.

I had problems too at first but u started including SD ext in my backups and all is well now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
Go figure. I've never backed up my sd-ext, and mine have worked fine. But then again, I'm not running apps off sd. Never really saw the point. I always viewed it as if I have to use a2sd, that just means I'm becoming a pack rat, and need to clean house of all the apps that I never use. That's just me though.

Ok i been tinkering around with the dialer for the red theme, took bits and pieces from other mods, the only problem i had when i was in recovery and started flashing MikRed-signed.zip it wasnt signed correct so i toggled sig, and it flashed fine of course with a warning saying your system might be unstable, i havent learned to sign..... anyways here is what i came up with..

[EVO 4G Android Development] chogardjr:
OK guys I realized that my theme was a pain in the a$$ to install on a fresh install so I fixed it to include all the updates and frameworks. I left the rotary separate because it has the remapped clockwidget so you don't have a bad day because you couldn't shut the alarm off, that would start my day off bad. So the rotary still removes the lockscreen for you and installs the only clock that I have made that is remapped so if you want the rotary locks and a different clock you will have to use the htc clock from the app drawer. Here are the two links...

Chogardjr-Blue-Theme-022011-signed.zip

Chogardjr-Rotary-LockScreen-021911-signed.zip

Also you guys might find this to be cool or not but I have the two mappable left and right rosie buttons. If you don't know what this means...you can change both buttons on the rosie(left and right), app drawer in the middle by defaut.

Edit: thougth I would give sort of a change log for this update

remapped left and right buttons on the rosie

Blue dialer keypad

Blue android for the in call screen

Blue cell signal bars

Blue market v2.3.2

Blue battery is here to stay (RIP trinity circle battery)

I added in my layout for the power control widgets

I really need a second evo to test on. I don't keep up with everything as good if I have my phone down for testing.

Enjoy easier chogardjr theme flashing :D

[EVO 4G Android Development] ktarian:
Chogardjr have you had a chance to re-upload the 4x5 nonflip clocks? You had put a blue and clear one on your download page but then removed the blue one because of issues with missing files from the push (The clear one had the same issues) that you said you needed to fix. Am eagerly waiting for the clear nonflip 4x5.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chogardjr:
oh yes, I do need to do those. I will do them if you can test them. deal?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Anxiously awaiting the outcome of these tests :D.

i have a family plan on my account and it pisses me off that sprint is changing their plans around

1st change --> Removed corporate discount for all lines except primary

this change was done some time ago

2nd change --> i am not sure when this is stating but when u upgrade your phone, regardless if it is 4g compatible or not they will be charging the $10 monthly premium data rate to all smartphones

3rd change --> gold and silver tier premium accounts

i have a line since 8-2001 so i havent had for 10 years yet and my plan is only 129.99 a month .. so they are no longer giving me upgrades to this line every year starting in april, i fall under the silver premium package.

they are making it harder to stay with them .. especially since i have an airrave in my home because there is no service in my area.

[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Have you tried using the uot kitchen (google it)? It allows you to pick your battery type, colors, and charging animation. Then you upload your framework-res.apk and it puts in your battery. Some have had issues with it though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vopwriter:
There is a link to swype skins at the very bottom of post #4.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chogardjr:
Google search UOT Kitchen because no one has made a battery like your saying. You can find it there.

i looked in there before and didnt notice the battery i was looking for .. that kitchen is running super slow since they migrated to new server

You have to push the files via adb or use root explorer. If you use root explorer you have to fix permissions.

You can also check chogardjr's mediafire folder (check his signature for the link). He has flashable zips for many of them.

You have to use either adb or root explorer to put it into /system/app. If you use root explorer be sure to set the permissions to the same as the other files in that folder. Then reboot. If you need help with that, see jklong03's post on the previous page.

I had never Ran a ROM for more than three days without a problem. I Ran 4.0 for 5 Days, no problems. I Switched to 4.2 on the simple reason that 4.0 is so good. Once I got it set up, I didn't Flash a Thing after day one. I'm a Flashaholic also...Lmao!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mich2Ga:
That's the same reason I went to CM6, then Myn put out RLS3 & I went back to sense. RLS4 was nice & smooth, but it dropped off on Me after 3 Days. Wasn't Themed or anything. Then I got a Black screen bug when the screen would be off & I would get an Email Notification or Text. Would take a couple of minutes for the screen to come back. I ran back to CM6. I Text a lot also & RLS4 was Very Laggy in that area.

Can someone help me out on the DarkTremor App2SD thing. I've read his web pages and it isn't clear to me how this is any different than the App2SD you download from the market?

P.S., I have also noticed that as soon as I move apps to the sdcard using App2SD, I am no longer able to mount my sdcard from within the rom. Have no idea why this would be but it can be a pain.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mich2Ga:
I wish I could, but I gave up on it. I read His Post & when I go to Partition the card, I don't see the same options stated in His post. I Flashed both versions of 4.2 on two different phones.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
I am currently using Calkulin's Memory Hack that increases your available internal memory by about 100 mb. It rocks and seems to reduce the necessity for App2SD.

hey just wondering, i also flashed 2 animations , and have ahd to nandroid back because some programs were missing. one both times was maps. the other was clockr and sms autoreply. anyone else noticing loss of programs, especially maps?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sgt. slaughter:
DarkTremor App2SD you have to partion your SD card as stated in his thread for it to work. This method was derived before FroYo was out and done to allow people to have more apps with the little space that came on phones internal memory. This moves the entire app to the SD card if im not mistaken which is different than FroYo's method. In order to move the apps to the SD in Darktremor's method you have to do so through terminal emulator or adb. the links in his thread here at the top are pretty self explanitory as to how to use it.

FroYo's Apps2SD is done without the SD card being partioned and you can easily move apps via the app manager in FroYo. This method only moves part of the App to the SD card if im not mistaken.

All in all with FroYo's method now being implemented in more and more apps I haven't seen a real need to use DarkTremors method. An easy way to check your apps to see if they allow being moved in FroYo is via AppBrain app as it will say installed internal or sd if it allows moving at all.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Yeah it works well. Just make sure you follow the instructions to the letter. Any time you flash a new rom or kernel you have to reflash the boot zip afterwards.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Thanks for the explanation.

My only problem with the Froyo method is that if you move apps which have widgets, the widgets will be disabled on your homescreen. So if you set up Froyo to automatically install apps to sd, you'll have problems (as in, "where the hell are my widgets?")

I've been using Calkulin's Memory Hack (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=855424) and even after all my apps are installed I still have about 150 mb left so I'll pass on App2SD for now - messes up my mounting thing anyway (apparently).

I personally don't get into benchmarks much myself anymore but some do, which is why I posted those. I posted this in the Incredible forum in Chingy's thread of Aamikam's base because some people there were skeptical of any real speed improvements and wanted proof. I may be off on a few details but I think I gave an adequate explanation.

The orange is the only thing I like about the new Clockwork. Very glitchy right now and there seems to be issues with reverting to a previous release through Rom Manager once you've updated, at least some have stated. I'm gonna be using AmonRa full time from now on..
[EVO 4G Android Development] sgt. slaughter:
You mean the widgets go inactive when you flash a new base rom? If thats the case you should be fully wiping anyway when going form different base's.

I haven't noticed losing any widgets myself and have every app on the sd that is allowed aside form Tibackup and Rom manager.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Well, for me, if I place any apps that have widgets (Pandora, for instance) on the SD card using the Froyo method, I lose my widget; however, if I place them using App2SD which also moves their cache as well, they are still available.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sgt. slaughter:
Oh hadn't noticed that ima try that right now soon as my phone restores my nand. I have pandora on my sd via froyo already so be an easy check.

Well snap your right! Can't believe I hadn't noticed that. Even after moving pandora from my SD card back to the phone i didnt have the widget. Had to uninstall and redownload from market.
