Best EVO ROM

I just wanted to give you some thanks for this ROM its works great on my EVO HW 0002. I updates all the Radios with the latest and it work great. I had a few hangs with ClockWorkMod so I switched to RA.

Tested Wifi/3G/BT/Hot-Spot working with no problems. Still testing GPS/WiMax... May need to downgrade Radio version not sure yet...

I love GB 2.3.3 UI and speed; its as much of an improvement as going to 2.2 from 2.1. I do not miss HTC Sense at all.

UPDATE: the GPS is working hard not sure if its another App and WiMax will not connect... I'm working at what radio's to flash now
[EVO 4G Android Development] rstouder:
I'm having GPS locking problems and WiMax not getting IP says connecting then cycles to scanning and connecting endlessly and 20-30sec at each in an area where I'm sure has good coverage.

I have HW 0002 with Salvage-Mod 1.2.1 and the correct Google Apps with it, the Radio's I installed are:

EVO_Radio_2.15.00.11.19

EVO_WiMAX_27167_R01

EVO_PRI_1.90_003

EVO_NV_1.90_003

What hardware version and what radio version's are you using? Does Wiwax and GPS work for you?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jpgarcia83:
I used CM7 GPS fix and I have full functioning GPS. Rom is running great by the way. I used GPS for like 21 minutes straight and it did not flinch.

Flash sense based ROM

Just installed, enjoying so far. However, spare parts wont show me battery stats (force close), and root explorer won't work... I repaired permissions in ras recovery and in rom manager, did I screw something up?
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:
The battery stats area of spare parts force closes on every gingerbread rom that I've tried thus far. I'm not sure if there's been a fix for it yet, but that's not specific to this rom. Root explorer should work just fine, it does for me. I would try uninstalling it, rebooting the phone, then re downloading/installing it and see if it works then.
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
You need most recent root explorer bro =P

Spare parts needs to be fixed too. It points to something that has changed since froyo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] carrilloevo:
by any chance somebody has a link for the 1.2 version please, for some reason i can't install the 1.2.1 tried like 10 times already and keep bootlooping thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] slythefox305:
:D

Thanks for the miui music.apk
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
NP :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] thegregbradley:
Interesting. It works on cm7, I wonder what they did. Also, my android system usage is at 79 percent, did I do something wrong? I reflashed the rom and the proper SM gapps already, no dice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] d0g:
I'm loving this ROM, but I keep getting random reboots. Every few hours or so.

Also my 3G is very shoddy.

So I'm wondering if it's my radio ...

What is the recommended radio/NVI/whatever?

My About says baseband v. 2.15.00.11.19 - that's the radio, right?

thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
This rom runs perfectly fine on my EVO4G. Although I had some trouble installing it like other xda members. I was trying to install salvage on my dad's evo and he kept on getting the black screen of death. So until that problem has been solved he's currently using Fresh.

[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
For the android usage, try downgrading the kernel. Try Tiamat 3.3.0, that solved that small gingerbread issue for me. It's the kernel, not the rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
Sure is. What PRI? Downgrading mine from 1.90 to 1.77 fixed some issues for me with signal. Also, what kernel are you currently on?
[EVO 4G Android Development] d0g:
Where do I see PRI?

I'm using whatever kernel came with the ROM. ... 2.6.37.4 bla bla dirty beast...

Didn't install another.

[EVO 4G Android Development] rstouder:
I was having GPS Locking issues, I did the GPS fix.. It worked.. BTW the ##GPS???# code does not work with HTC with GB and HTC Sense 3.0 so flash a ROM based on the HTC Sense 2.2...

still no luck with WiMax... I'm going to try downgrading radio later. I'll update when I figure it out
[EVO 4G Android Development] slythefox305:
You have to use a sense rom to view your PRI... if you have 3.70 OTA it is possible you have PRI 1.90 with the new radios.
[EVO 4G Android Development] d0g:
Which radio do you recommend?

What about the brand new radio & PRI that came with the recent HTC GB Sense leak like yesterday? Anyone tried that?

[ Evo / myn warm z / netarchy ]
[EVO 4G Android Development] slythefox305:
PRI 1.77 ... and naw i haven't tired those.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mindspin_311:
Does this look normal?
[EVO 4G Android Development] d0g:
How about radio? .11.19? .09.01?

What is PRI anyway? And NV?

And do they all have to "match "?

THANKS!

[ Evo / myn warm z / netarchy ]
[EVO 4G Android Development] slythefox305:
I kept the newest raido

I relly don't know much about PRI... i just know it involves signal strength... and i think they both have to match.. i have both them matching right now.

here is the thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=715485
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
@mindspin_311

Yes it does look normal, to me and a couple others. It will start showing up after you make a phone call.
[EVO 4G Android Development] malibu_23:
Is there a fix for the lock screen toggle? When you reenable the lock screen after a while via the power notification widget it doesn't restore your lock screen until you reboot. If u toggle it on and off it works. But after a while of it being off, say 10+ min. It wont comeback until u reboot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ZuperBlahq:
Finally got this rom working thanks to you. Now I feel like i wasnt truly wiping before roms. That Calkunlin Format seemed to do the trick. I was getting CRAZY Amounts of FC's. Now I'm getting zip. zilch. zero. :D:D

Edit: Just flashed Matted Blues theme. SWEET AS TITS such a beautiful theme.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
Is there a way to stop the market from updating? Everytime I theme salvagemod or cm7 the market theme reverts back to the green market
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
You can freeze it. Or jsut use the newest market =P

It auto updates to data/app. YOu can pull it from there.

Change Battery Icon

I have searched around this thread a bit but I am having trouble finding a battery icon that shows percentage. Does anyone have a good way to get such an icon?

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
did you try Matted Blues theme? Surprise, it's blue, but does show the percentage
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrrogers1:
Does it have to be percentage in the battery or would a 1x1 widget be ok for you? If widget is ok, try BattStatt.

*I'll post up a quick shot of my home screen in a min...
[EVO 4G Android Development] y2kdread:
That theme works out perfectly and actually matches my current wallpaper better then the default theme.

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] y2kdread:
That widget will come in handy. I was wondering though, what agenda widget are you using and what is that widget with the android next to the sign?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrrogers1:
"CalWidget" is the agenda and "Task Manager" is the Android one. It is showing available mem and acts as a manual task killer (kills all running when tapped) but the actual program allows you to select tasks to be killed on screen standby.

*On BattStatt, deactivate the "background" setting when you configure it to have the transparent layout.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MikeC84:
Any one know if any recent app notification mod works on this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
when are you guys gonna fix the bug where after a phone call ends it goes right to the lockscreen? other than that i love the rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jbcarrera:
don't know if its a bug but yeah I have the same problem
[EVO 4G Android Development] randymanlb:
Had the same problem. Rebooted. Fixed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
i believe cm7 has the same issue but in cm settings there is a fix for it. maybe this rom needs something like that? not a huge deal, but it can be annoying.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
What version are you running cause I'm not having that problem at all on 1.2.1? I had the problem with CM7 didn't really bother me that much but it was a pain if you were doing something before the call came in and then right after it you have to unlock to continue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
+1 I believe that MattedBlue should be incorporated in the build that's just me lol. Just thought I would throw it out there a stock version and a themed version. :-) MattedBlue FTW!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mindspin_311:
What kernel's are you guys running?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
Yes it has the percentage in the battery icon. I love this theme.
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
it happens to me on 1.2.1, but I can live with it because the ROM is outstanding and way beyond any other GB (with all do respect to other devs)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
I'm running HW0004 using the Tiamat 3.3.1 kernel sbc right now I have been running since yesterday at 5pm till now and I still have 62 percent battery left. I'm running better then my trusty Savage Zen kernel. But then again all phones are different but I'm currently stable at 1228 overclock and it has been running fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
which governor? I can only use interactive
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
I agree since CM7 went final it has been running crappy on my phone and I don't know the reason why but I use the same setup as I do with SalvageMod and they run completely different for some reason and I never had that problem through all the RC and Nightly's.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
I sometimes use Performance or Conservative.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mindspin_311:
Ive been using the 'on-demand' governor right now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cds36:
HW 002 SavageZen 1.1.0 CFS HAVS and couldn't be better for my evo. CPU Governor ondemand
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
have you tried the savage governor on this ROM or is that still a no go? was with cm7, but salvagemod seems to be better
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mindspin_311:
Anyone have experience with Tiamat?
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
Yes, Tiamat 3.3.7 sbc

stock battery
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mindspin_311:
So the only 2 Kernels I should really consider are:

SavageZen (Turn off SBC, or run the non-SBC version?)

SBC (with option): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=917755

Non-SBC: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=11661342

Tiamat (SBC and non-SBC versions)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=972746
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
Tiamat 3.3.7 sbc has come a long way for me, not sure I will ever look back. Referencing your above question, that is pretty much the extent of AOSP kernels, aside from the stock CM. Tiamat seem the same to me as SZ kernels, but i get slightly better battery. I don't have issues with sbc using the stock battery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cds36:
I use the governor on the rom and nothing else, i have had great results it really is a matter of testing which will work best for you. I have seen different results with different HW versions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mindspin_311:
Cool, I think I will try Tiamat. Just download the ZIP and flash via Recovery?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ncfastls1:
I've used tiamat since it came over to the Evo with Salvage Mod...I like it a lot, battery life is great and everything just works smoothly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
yes, wipe cache and delvik. just make sure to get the EVO one. I know that sounds stupid but I have flashed the incredible kernel twice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] PhantomPhreak53:
Is it really that different than the stock kernel? This stock kernel is working great for my phone. I can go all day on one charge and I am a pretty heavy user. Usually when I flash other kernels I get a lot of random reboots.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tgeigel:
Hey guys so Ive tried to flash the rom but it keeps getting stuck after it reboots.

It goes to the white screen with the htc evo and then it goes black and stays there.

Any ideas or suggestions???

Im rooted btw
[EVO 4G Android Development] supermantxz24:
I started using it today it fixed my gps issue and feels alittle smoother
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
tiamat is actually going to be our base kernel from now on :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
Hell yeah!!! Thank you :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
Next up should be a MattedBlue version of the BootAnimation to match the theme cause my only dislike is the honeycomb boot animation. :-(
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
I will say that it will seem alot smoother I didn't have any problem with the stock just that I seemed to get some lag here and there and I always switched to my trusty SZ kernel and it never failed but I always gave Tiamat a try when a new one came out and I have been impressed with the latest SBC kernel 3.3.7 I have lasted over a day and half on 1 charge and I have one of those stubborn evo's you know them HW004 lol and its way smoother and faster. Seeing that I have been able to overclock to 1228 with no problem is also a plus. But that's just me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thegregbradley:
Ok so my issues are slowly being ironed out... still would love to see Spare Parts working (as CM7 definitely has it working) so I can figure out some battery issues. Yesterday and today I've had MAD cell standby issues, possible I'm on the wrong PRL/PRI? I had it on airplane mode yesterday (was on my motorcycle in the mountains, no service, trying to save battery) and it strangely seemed to drain my battery like crazy, then 4G got stuck in "turning on" mode and wouldn't go away? Any thoughts?

EDIT: for the record, I've been on Tiamat's kernel, 3.3.5. Just switched to 3.3.7 about 30 minutes ago, we'll see if it changes anything.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
If this has been asked, I apologize. Does anyone's home, back, menu & search buttons illuminate? Mine do not and that's why I'm asking.

UPDATE: Now they are working. Go figure.

How does SMARTASS work?

can anyone help me out i cant get this rom to go past the white htc evo 4g screen. I've done multiple wipes and reinstalls i just re rooted my phone last night and i have the latest radio's & .76 ENG bootloader. Thanks for anyone that can help. Oh and im using the latest clockwork recovery if that helps
[EVO 4G Android Development] avacomputers:
Anyone notice missed calls with this rom?

[EVO 4G Android Development] jstalford:
If you wiped Cache/Dalvik/Data/System/Boot before flashing, try pulling the battery when it hangs and hold the power button down w/ the battery out for a few seconds, then try to reboot. That usually works for me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
I love this new Tiamat kernel I'm sorry SZ. Lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] cds36:
The audio when recording video is so much better now with this rom. I read somewhere it was because of using a different codec is that correct ? Just wondering if we were any closer to getting 720 working.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Download the PC36IMG.zip file for amon RA v2.3 and place it on the root of your SD card (not in any folder). Make sure there is no other file with that name on the root of your card. Shutdown your device. Simultaneously press the down volume button and the power button. You will enter the bootloader screen. After a short pause, a few lines of text will scroll across the screen. At the top, you should see "S-OFF". If you see "S-ON", you need to re-root your device. Anyway, the bootloader will automatically detect the PC36IMG.zip file and prompt you to install it. Follow the easy prompts to install. Installation will take less than 10 seconds to complete. Afterwards, reboot into recovery and then go to the wipe menu and wipe EVERYTHING in it EXCEPT the SD card itself. After that, go to the flash menu and reflash the rom and then reboot inti your homescreen. Be patient. Afterwards, go back into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik and then flash the gapps. Afterwards, reboot.

Flashed Tiamat last night, bump charged the phone a few times this morning, then wiped battery stats.

Will report this evening how the life is.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
An easier way is to download rom manager from the market scroll down to the bottom were you would select recovery update and click on flash other recovery which will be Amon RA 2.3
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
I would love to know the answer on the 720p recording that alone will seal the deal and I will not use a Sense rom again. Lol I hardly use it now but I'm just saying :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
I'm telling you, put the video on a big tv and ask people which picture is better, the 720 or the 480 and they will tell you the 480 looks much clearer. or just take the videos to a A/V person and ask them. stock video is better because it doesn't have the phony software bumping the resolution.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Agreed, but I'm not a fan of ROM Manager. I enjoy going into recovery and taking a hands on approach. To me, it is safer ... ;)

[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
Understood :-) i did it by going through Recovery myself but in the process of flashing my many ROMS i had a couple that had ROM manager included in the ROM and i noticed that feature.

Im sure most of you know this, but ima gonna post it for the ones that don't. When using the camera, hold down the "capture" button instead of just pressing it when taking a picture.
