Could someone please post the stock flipclock--the one in the photo in the 1st post? I would just go ahead and dl the entire rom and pull it myself, but I won't be able to do so until tomorrow night.

Cheers!

Anyone using Netarchy non SBC kernels like 4.3 or 4.3.1 have you seen any improvement in battery life compared to the HTC kernel?
[EVO 4G Android Development] stricklerjosh:
I tried both bfs and cfs 4.3.1 havs no sbc yesterday and they seemed to slow down my phone. Put stock kernel back on and unplugged last night at 1am and let it run overnight and lost no battery till 8 am. Try them out because they perform different on different phones.

Sense Calendar (agenda) widget

Mik -

I know this might be pretty low on your priority list... but since you have been messing around with the HTC widgets and resizing and stuff for the 4x5 workspace... is there any way that we could get the HTC calendar (the one that looks like an agenda) widget sized to 4x2? It looks so nice and I can't really find a comparable widget on the market, I would LOVE to have the HTC flip clock, that agenda in 4x2 and then a row left for whatever else, it would be perfect!

Maybe this would be very hard/impossible, if so that is fine. But I bet other people would like this too :-)

p.s. if there are any suggestions for one on the market, please lemme know
[EVO 4G Android Development] msakhwand:
I love this ROM and have been using it since 4.3 came out. I have tried the netarchy kernel but finding it to cause lag on the EVO. How can I go back to the stock kernel that came with 4.3.1

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejc1214:
I used SBC 4.2.1 AKA #131 and loved the battery live. I was getting 12 to 14 hours of moderate use and still have about 50 to 60% of battery left at the end of the day. But Stopped using it as a lot of people are claiming battery plating and damaged phones. So I tried 4.3 havs and nohavs and then tried 4.3.1 havs and nohavs and my battery was draining just as fast so I re-flashed Miks 4.3 and got the stock kernel back and it seems to be about the same. I was just wondering what everyones experience was. I was not running setcpu.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
I like the idea... u would need the 4x5 workspace installed but ill pm u to try out a test version.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tonwarr.the.incredible:
Personally, after trying stock HTC #15(noSBC) and having rapid battery drain, I flashed Net's 4.3 w/SBC and have had much better results. My phone actually seems to stay a little cooler and battery life is fantastic!

If my phone gets fried or spontaneously combusts, you can all say I told you so...lol;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejc1214:
I know what you mean! I am tempted to go back to #131 just to get the battery life back but I would hate to fry my phone. I am not sure who to believe on the battery issue. Some people are saying use it some are saying don;t! Not sure what to do.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stricklerjosh:
Reflash rom.

[EVO 4G Android Development] finsmaniac02:

You are crazy talented with this stuff lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] vmoney23:
I know there's a comment in the OP about flashing 4.2 mods on top of 4.3 but would the clear lockscreen be problematic on top of 4.2?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
any mods for 4.2 are not skinned... thats why there might be issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
already done btw... compiling it now.

and lucky for me and u it will even fit a stock theme.

edit:

here is a screen shot:

before i send it or up it as mod... let me know that this is what u want and if this makes u happy... cuz i can change it more.

and yes... u can scroll down as much as u want.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kdelinux:
THANKS you VERRRRY MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! freaking love this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vmoney23:
OK. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tonwarr.the.incredible:
I'd say just use whatever you're comfortable with. If you've had good results with SBC than give it another shot but know there's always a risk with any mods you use. I don't know that there's a right or wrong answer because in the end its all about personal preference. Lol...anyways, this SBC topic has taken over the EVO forums and I probably shouldn't have polluted Aamikams thread with my little rant...lol...sorry.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
feel free to pollute i dont mind... im not an ass about it... its a forum... not a strictly dev talk only place (my opinion anyways).

and u know most people only read the tiny short comment and avoid the long ones anyways... they might get a clue about the risk using that kernel cuz of u.

which is a good thing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
guys... i have to say im amazed by how many of u guys like this rom...

over 2000 d/l in less than 48 hours for v4.3 alone.

im happy u guys like it... thats all i can say.

Yeah, this will be my daily ROM for awhile. Really well done, and very good attention to detail. Excellent.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
LauncherPro offers what you are looking for. That's what is good about LP. You get a better launcher but you get to keep many of the sense Widgets.

Mitchell's EVO
[EVO 4G Android Development] finsmaniac02:
Sigh... I know.

I used to be a HUGE launcher pro advocate, paid for pro plus also. The dock is awesome, the ability to do the 5 rows was awesome too. And then when he started making sense-ish widgets it was great. I never found a clock/weather widget that QUITE felt as nice as HTC's though, but I found replacements and/or the launcher pro plus widgets to be satisfactory.

Then when I saw the new Sense HD I decided I need to get used to using sense again because the Sense HD was awesome. Used a rom or 2 with it built in, and it is really really nice.

Then started getting back into Mik's roms with all of his rebuilding and everything is just so damn smooth and fast and efficient. For some reason using anything but sense just doesn't feel QUITE right anymore. Tried ADW EX also, but I go back to sense lol. I know it requires a lot of mods (5 rows, rosie mod to change the right button) but the way Mik is modding it out is just incredible.

I'll go back to launcher pro sometime probably, and am anxiously awaiting the new version that he said will be rebuilt... but right now like I said, anything but sense just doesn't feel quite right to me
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
ok guys... ill upload the calendar agenda widget mod (4x2) by request... i liked that idea so i kinda jumped on it.

it reminded on manila days... the look and such.

anyways... here is how it will look:
[EVO 4G Android Development] MJStephens:
Hey this ROM is really nice. I don't usually like many themed ROMs but this one is gorgeous. :-)

The Best

This is what I've been looking for since I rooted my EVO. Thanks so much for a rom that is stable and Awesome! :D I do have a question though, on the kernel is it able to be oc or is it best to leave it alone for now. Not really nething else to say about it except it's awesome. Thank You
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
its the stock kernel... i leave it like that on purpose so u guys can pick what u want and cuz i know with a stock kernel everything works 100%.

so... stock kernel cannot over clock... but to be honest... my best tip for batt life is to under clock... thats whats nice about this rom, u can underclock and wont feel a diff.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bumsock:
Thank you Sir...and ThankD you too sir. :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
I often wonder how much battery life underclocking actually saves.
[EVO 4G Android Development] luvtorev:
Great rom, very fast and reliable. I have a request. Could you please, or anyone that knows how to theme, make a GB notify bar for this rom please?? Also how do I add a brightness toggle instead of the flashlight (since i never use it) on the drop down bar?? Thank you very much.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
only a long test will show.

but its obvious that less cpu usage should give u more batt life.

how much will it actually save u... im not sure.

there are a lot of people who are huge freaks for batt life... they probably know exactly how many extra minutes and sec it will give u.

im not really one of those though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stricklerjosh:
What do you set yours at or do you just leave it stock?

mikfroyo evo!
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
Ami all I can say is thank you. I made a donation and i think it was not enough. I have made some changes to my home screen but other than that I'm in love with my phone again.

Way fast and very stable.

For all you kernel guys I'm currently running Nets 4.3.1 BFS HAVE NO SBC and I'm getting what I would consider good battery life. I can get a day out of it and that is 50-50-180.

50 texts

50 emails

180 minutes on phone

I also use xda application to catch up and tweet deck throughout the day. I've done all the usual little tweaks (turn down display, etc.). I use Wifi whenever I can.

I'm also not using setcpu or juice defender. I do use super power with default settings.

My phone sleeps like a rock and it's faster than the Flash when it's on!

(Had to throw that one in there... lol faster than the Flash... now if only 4.4 was here....)

Rockon Aamikam!

I'll try and post some screenies of my desktop shortly. Can you do it from just your phone?
[EVO 4G Android Development] doorpz:
Hey mik the 4x5 is looking great and it gives me enough room to use the flip clock again. I still use the multicon widget though to pack a few more apps on the home screen. Keep up the good work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
like i always say... i didnt even get a chance to get around to checking out batt life in a good test yet... i keep it exactly how i flash the rom.

i keep pushing files to my phone at least like 10 times a day.... so i cant really test out thing... o i dont even bother using setcpu and/or anything else.

only once im done and stop planning on making mods or take a nice 3-4 days break from looking at doing anything i will be able to give u guys my experience on how batt life is exactly working for me.

i had once time like i said before on ver. 4.2 that u used net 4.3 and got 66% left after 1 day and 5 hours and i only used screen off at min freq.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:

[EVO 4G Android Development] gingson:
I am really having a hard time deciding between Mik's and Myn's roms. I have been switching back and forth between these two and there seem to be no differences as far as stability and speed. Great work guys.

I use Mik's when I'm on this thread. ;) :)

My next step is to look for a kernel that's really stable with this ROM.

Having a problem with my data connection...it randomly shuts off and doesnt turn on unless I go to settings and turn it off and turn it back on. Ive disabled always on mobile data(to save battery life) and I know the connection turns off but it starts back when its needed. But now it shuts off and doesnt restart, any ideas? I just flashed to 4.3 and cleared cache and dalvik. I cant recall if this was happening before. I did update prl and still having issue, like right as im typing this message i have to restart connection to send..please help

[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
just type "cpu" in the market... u will find many.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sgt. slaughter:
true, though undervolting ontop of underclocking the phone ie using profiles in setcpu to have it low while undervolted too might actually be worse on the battery. It was said before in a thread to think of it in a sense that you are having less power to do task X so in turn the CPU will have to work longer rather than a quick bump to complete it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] luigic81:
sorry a little off topic, but do these icons work for ADW ex as well? If so how do you apply them? I've always like the "text icons" on the bottom, but don't know how to create/apply them
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
kinda makes sense...

but, undervolting is not really there in the stock kernel... so it applies only to undervolted kernels.

maybe there is good way to see what the balance is using both and/or what better... although simply under volt to makes sense will give more... but im not sure cuz i never tested batt life in a way that shows me how long the phone is alive.

some people do the whole stats and actual list maybe they know better.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sgt. slaughter:
yeah, and like I said the comments about undervolting/clocking were all from an individual and assumptions as to why the setcpu profiles were causing people bad battery life and such. It was just a guess that underclocking the phone then having it have to work harder to perform tasks could lead to worse battery life than if it wasn't underclocked.

Now that i think about it I wanna say it had nothing to do with undervolting and was all underclocking. It was about the profiles that staggarad the clock speeds as the battery went down, and in turn ment the cpu would work harder to perform tasks causing battery to suck even more.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
like u said... "individuals"...

thats never an indication of anything... with all due respect to the individual that said it (or said anything for that matter), it just means that it "could" happen and doesnt really mean it will.

although i like to use that "could" as a way to avoid things and/or as an excuse to how things can be working or not working.

nothing is 100% i guess, even in technology where its all 0's and 1's... it sometimes seems like there is a 0.5 somewhere that no one see's or hear of until someone else notice it... and even then it doesn't mean it can be reproduced.

nevermind though... just something that went through my head as im doing something else... but i do know (and god knows how much i wanna end up doing a PHD cuz of that) that things are not exactly how we think they are... there is more to it and a lot of angles left overlooked just cuz we like to accept things how they are (cuz it works) instead of finding new ways.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Nygel:
yes Mik I agree with you 100%, I have configured alot of DCS systems in my line of work and have notice that out of the blue 1 bit will not function correctly, everything is assigned but it will not work unless I invert it or asked for it to be ignored. strange, strange........ just work experience

ALSO just a little bit of info, I have not reported any adverse activity with the SBC kernal and my 002 firmware, not starnge/long uptime. That leads me to narrow down its probadly an issue with the HBoot theat some individuals currently aquired (other than 0.76) and the 1.90 PRI, combination could be suspeat

Amikam, I flashed your twist animations on top of 4.3. Was it meant only for 4.2? And if yes, can you make animations for 4.3 again?

Sent from my EVO rockin' MikFroYo!
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
guys... a quick one for u... at least for all the ones that used my old roms.

for the white theme... would u like to see all in white, or just widgets/taskbar/rosie in white.

im asking cuz i thought about it a little and i'm starting to work on it now... i was thinking of leaving everything like it is and not make all of the black into white... and thats because i had it like that on the old rom.

or, if all white... than u should imagine it as if everything that is black now will be white basically.

let me know what u think... but try to be sure... cuz i did do an all white thing before if any of u guys remember (i mean more than widgets/taskbar/etc) and i said it didnt look so good so i changed it to have black instead.

im gonna start my work on the framework and widgets now... so there is still time for u guys to put in requests.

as always... if u wanna beta test pm me and if there will be more than just 10-15 pms... ill have to make it public. (the funny part is that all the beta's for 4.3 got like 600 d/l even though i didnt put a link up for it for everyone).

thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
ok... ill stop real quick... look it up in the second post in about 10 min.

edit:

ill make it for the rom theme and the flat black. (yes we need 2 zips... kinda sucks)

edit 2:

ill actually take longer than that and jusp update all the anims i have for both themes... so give me more than 10.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
i never update my hboot... still with the one i had since day 1 of rooting.

so u saying maybe i should update it? or u actually think it wont change a thing.

the reason i keep it is cuz i already f'd up my phone once and the only way i could get it back is cuz i had the engineering hboot (extra commands and such) and not the new one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] finsmaniac02:
This is perfect!

I think someone should take all of Sense's widgets and try to offer smaller versions of them, and then figure out how to make them new entries in the widget picker so you don't lose the bigger ones, and make the mod so that it can be applied on top of any theme out there and reuses the themed graphics.

I think if this was done, it could easily be 5 bucks on the market or something (all assuming it doesn't piss HTC off too much lol)

But as far as my use goes... between the 5 row mod, the rosie mod to choose your right button, and this smaller agenda mod... I am honestly VERY happy with my phone. It's crazy feeling haha.

THANKS SO MUCH

cannot charge for it... sucks, but htc will kill me.

I really love this ROM. The theme and custom animations add a nice touch. I had been using myn's ROMs through RLS 1-5. Now I'm a defector.

Your all white/white theme was very elegant. That's the one I vote for.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
You could just release the method for allowing Sense widgets to run under LP, then if we decided to do it on our own, it's on us....not you.

Just kidding, I understand running afoul of major corporations like HTC is scary stuff. Appreciate all the work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
well.... im not sure it will work... i just know i was able to separate all the widgets and most of the apps of htc from the htc resources files.

that should allow me to tweak the manifest and such to get it running like a regular widget... but im not sure if im 100% right on that or not.

didnt try it yet cuz i dont really care about it much now... but im pretty sure its doable.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jkcpsal:
Man that is too bad, I would love to have sense widgets on adw then everything would be perfect
[EVO 4G Android Development] kc_hubbard:
For the record, I like the idea of an all white theme.

Just a quick question here, maybe for you electrical engineers out there. Wondering if we would expect lesser battery life out of an all white theme? In theory, it would take more juice to light pixels up brightly as opposed to dimly like on the black themes.

Not saying this is a bad thing, if it is the case...just something I've wondered about w/out ever having backed the thought up by trying to do empirical test.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
ok guys... here are extra 7 anims for u to pick from and the original one from v4.3 so u can revert if u dont like any.

so far for the flat black theme... but for the actual rom's theme it will come in a little bit also.

i didnot test those zips... but im sure they are working... so let me know if u have issues.
