I had the disappearing apps but it was the apps I moved with froyo a2sd, it was weird cause I couldn't restore with TB and I tried a nand restore and they weren't there either. Wiped clean and they restored fine from TB.

Hey, I just came from Myn's RLS5 and was wondering if anyone has pulled Myn's htc ime mode keyboard w/arrows to this rom and the notification pull down. I'm using the flat black theme and I think that myn's notification pull down and keyboard would go really nice with this. Any help?

Not sure if this has been mentioned but hulu app isnt playing videos anymore. Says this platform is not supported.

Any fix for this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] doorpz:
Did you update to the new flash? If you did that would break hulu. What rom are you on 4.3 or 4.4 beta? The beta has the new flash update that was modded to work with hulu. I got the new flash from 4.4 beta to work on 4.3 but it took a little work.

Here's miks fix:

[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Download an app called "QuickSettings" from the Market.

Open it, click "Volume Control" and it will give you much greater control over all aspects of your system sounds. I believe the one that controls the volume of "clicks" you hear when typing or pressing an icon are "System Volume".

Depending upon the Keyboard you use, some may control their own volume separate from System Volume.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Thanks. Wondering if it is really worth it to go through all this for a beta.

Question - if i flash the beta without doing a full wipe then flash a2sd, will it just leave all my apps on my sdcard as they were? Do I need to then remove my dalvik cache to the sdcard?

Ah may just nandroid and give it a shot for the hell of it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] doorpz:
That's what I've been doing all day, I just threw in one of my crappy replacement batteries and went to town. I've probably flashed to 4.4 at least 3 times and restored a nandroid another 2 times. It just takes a little time and some battery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
So whats the payoff? Anything to get excited about in 4.4 from your perspective?
[EVO 4G Android Development] doorpz:
I really haven't noticed a difference but then again I'm not that serious of a user so I may just have not ran into any problems because I don't use that much stuff. I'm really just looking forward to the white theme so I can use this as my background.

[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
u dont really have to make people go through this.

this is what u want to do.

grab my FlashPlayer.apk from system/app folder.

also from /system/lib folder u wanna grab 2 files:

libflashplayer.so and also libysshared.so.

simply replace those files with the ones u have on the rom now.... and hulu will work again.

these can bu used on all roms btw.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
no update for me here.

look at the version number u have for it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
/me pukes violently
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
So if I am still running 4.3, I can just grab those files from the 4.4 Beta and Hulu will work again? Is your FlashPlayer.apk the same as the latest release?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
where did i see that before?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
easier actually

just grab the new flashplayer apk and delete the lib folder from it.

than push it into to system/app as "FlashPlayer.apk"

that should work also.

just make sure u uninstall the update also.

if anyone is wondering how come that will work... i dont mind explaining... just ask.

probably something on youtube that made its way to the news somehow.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Do I need to grab the beta to get FlashPlayer.apk or is it available standalone?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
to anyone thats on 4.4 beta I.

did u guys notice anything funky? (if u didnt wipe it doesn't count)

and how do u guys like the menu icons?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
after u update your flash player just do:

adb remount

adb pull /data/app/com.adobe.flashplayer-1.apk

than... uninstall the update.

go and rename it to "FlashPlayer.apk"

open the apk with 7zip and delete the "lib" folder from it.

and push it back into system:

adb push filedir\FlashPlayer.apk /system/app/

that should work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] doorpz:
I knew there had to be an easier way unfortunately the IT department at my work locks down our computers so no adb and no mounting devices to PC's. Too many idiots bringing viruses in on flash drives so they locked us down so now I have to find alternate ways to do things that should normally be alot easier. Thanks for the heads up though, i'll edit my other posts with your solution.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
i would post a fix for everyone... but the thing is that not all roms name it as "FlashPlayer.apk" in the system/app... so i will need to have some fun assuming whats the file name on each rom to make sure it works. (for exp. myn's rom have it named as "install_flashplayer.apk")
[EVO 4G Android Development] bcarter2000:
What does libysshared.so do? I used root explorer to put libflashplayer.so to the /data/data/com.Adobe.flashplayer/lib folder, and set the permissions to rwxr-xr-x. Everything seems to be working.
[EVO 4G Android Development] doorpz:
I grabbed a zip from myn at some point that seemed to have both a modified flash and the hulu app together that could be flashed in one go and I know I used it on other roms so not sure if it just overwrites whatever is there or updates it. honestly I don't know **** about coding any of this stuff so if I'm saying something stupid just ignore it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
im not really sure what it does... i know that the fix is in the libflash.....so

and u have to clear the new files from the new apk to get it working so it will use the old modified one.

hex editing the new ones dont really work 100% for some reason (i changed it to be ver 10.1.103 and it only played commercials for exp.).

like i always say... im not an expert... but i make things work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Did all this and Hulu still says "Format not supported by this player..."
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
u fine... i know that zip... but i dont think it will work for the new flash version... or wont work without asking u to update anyways. (unless he updated it)
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
did reboot to see if it change anything?

u might also need to clear dalvik cuz the new lib files from the new flash get into the data/data folder which u dont want to happen. (kinda)

[EVO 4G Android Development] jklong03:
Not really. I had a few expected hicups because I didn't wipe (expected some, so no, I'm not complaining nor do I have the right to).

But I was a little disappointed in 2 things I would hope could be in the final version (but this is just my tastes, and this is YOUR ROM so take it for what it's worth)

1) Was hoping the 4x5 Rosie and associated apps would be included

2) I really like eric's android robot in the pull-down notification window, really helps to remind you that you have pulled the notification bar down (yes, I sometimes forget!) It is located here.

Oh, and yes, the Menu Icons are great!
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
as far as the 4x5... im not sure everyone are happy with it... so its easier as a mod since i already have it as a mod (just gotta change like 4 icons in rosie).

and the android can be added in... thats not an issue... so unless someone really dont want it ill add it in.

btw...

im not sure what up with all the missing apps things for some of u guys... i never had that happen to me even once.

i would bet it is something that has to do with having those apps on the sd or something.

edit:

dont u guys want the robot on the actual background and not just the pull down bar?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
u dont really need to update... but the version number on the flashplayer apk is what will keep bugging u f u dont use the new one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bing281:
So I am new to this but do you need to backup and wipe when going from 4.1 to 4.2 or 4.3. Because redoing everything each time even when using titanium backup is pretty time consuming so I want to know if I can just flash over? Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] kast107:
IMO it definitely looks sweeter on the background! Work your magic, sir.

Gracias!
[EVO 4G Android Development] kast107:
A lot of peeps in here prefer to flash over to save time. In my opinion, if you flash over, and something breaks due to a lack of wiping, then you're stuck doing a fresh install anyways.

I usually wipe everything for a new ROM flash so I can make sure that nothing breaks due to a lack of wiping.

I hear TB Pro has an automatic restore feature so you're not stuck authorizing each installation. I don't have it yet, but can anyone confirm this. I don't wanna give out bad info.

Thanks and good luck!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jklong03:
Not sure what you mean by on the actual background vs pull down bar??

No problem with the 4x5 Rosie as a mod, except that is what seems to trigger the missing apps issue for me (but maybe because I used the old one for 4.3?) I really think it does have something to do with apps on the sd, I do have an sd-ext3 partition and I know many (if not all) of the missing ones were installed at one time or another while I was running with apps2sd active. I guess I could restore a nandroid from my 4.3 apps2sd and take a look at the symbolic link and see which apps are installed there. But, how does the non-apps2sd versions like beta 4.4 find them if that is where they were installed?

FYI, just did a nandroid bu of my 4.4 Beta and am restoring my last 4.3 apps2sd version.

disappearing apps

please post what recovery and version number you are using?

when i first installed 4.3 i was using clockwork 2.6.0.1 and i was having disappearing apps. including rom manager, so i had to install RA 2.2.1 from the bootloader.

everything has been great after going back to RA. i went to clockwork because i thought i read about some issues with RA 2.0 and 2.1. so i just want to see what everyone is using that has the disappearing app issue.

So far its good. I have just stuck with the stock rom/kernel to see how it goes. (no add ons) One question, does the 4x5 workspace or the clear lock bar work with this version or do I need to wait until 4.4 add ons are made?

[EVO 4G Android Development] iondokk:
If you purchase titanium backup it does automatically restore without confirmation...

As far as flashing over a rom I agree with the other posters, you may carry over something and if you want to be sure you have the best possible version of your rom...double wipe everything and manually restore your settings, it only takes me about twenty minutes or so and I have a ton of stuff.

Also it is worth the time to set up aps2sd it takes out all of the work...

I was looking for a link someone posted back when 4.3 Beta 3 was in the works. It is basically a line drawing of the robot guy on the semi-transparent empty space on the notification pull down. I'll keep looking.

Don't get me wrong, I like the little guy in the notification bar, but seeing the robot on a semi-transparent background really made it stand out, IMHO.

Keep up the good work, Mik.

I was on Myn's 5 and decided to try Mik's beta. I wiped everything in CW several times and flashed the beta. Booted fine looked around a bit and decided I liked it so I updated PRL and Profile and then held power button to reboot. Stuck on white HTC screen for about 10 minutes. Pulled battery and went back to recovery. Wiped everything again and again and flashed Mik's beta again.

Restored apps with Titanium no data. Played around a bit and then I added the widget txt with root explorer. Tried to reboot and now I am stuck on the white HTC screen again for more than 10 minutes.

I have the newest radio, did not touch kernal, and I am on PRI 1.77 any ideas.

Love the looks and speed of this ROM and I have never had as much free space even after restoring apps.

Edit: I had a zip of RA recovery on my sd so I moved it to root of sd card and rebooted to HBoot. Flashed RA and then selected reboot. Phone booted right into Mik's beta. Being able to name Nandroids will never again be good enough reason for me to even think about using CW again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] snovvman:
I'm confused by these instructions. I'm running 4.2 and already updated Flash.

The only thing I would suggest is getting "Desktop VisualiZer" in the Market. It allows you to take the Icon set that Mitch is using (It is my personal favorite also, I MUST SAY), and apply the "Icon" to the "App" of your choice. If you want to really personalize your Launcher Pro, and/or ADW ex, then you HAVE TO have this app.

Just my 2 cents.
