My camera was completely like that previously. It was the kernel I was running... I just switched and now all is well.

It was super inconvenient because I was trying to show some people my phone.

No problems though, because then I got to show them recovery! Woot!

Awesome! Somehow the filesize came out even smaller than aamikam's. Not sure how that's possible but whatever.

To make this post somewhat relevant, if anyone want's calk's reflow-disabled browser modded to allow 16 windows click here. I removed the unnecessary language files also and somehow it's smaller than aamikam's (at least the one in 4.4).

This is my EVO, there are many like it, but this one is mine...
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
u stole it from me...

funny... i figured i could make it.

i went to sleep when we were at 9861 posts... thought no way the thread will get to 10000 by the time i wake up (it been only like 10 hours since then btw).

and u guys now brought the thread to over 10160 posts... wow.

anyways... i got a nice snow day tomorrow... so i can work a little on stuff now, and i will.

GOOD MORNING AAMIKAM !!!

[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
file size can be less size... dont matter... its what inside that matters.

i can compress all to max... dont mean it will work better.

apktool usually compress it to like mx3 i think by default... i try to keep resources.arsc uncompressed... and images can effect also (gray scale, less details, etc.)
[EVO 4G Android Development] aaronw143:
Aren't you in Chicago cause I'm outside of stl and we got about 18 in already and its not supposed to stop until like 1 in the afternoon tomorrow!

This just made my day. Or night? :confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] a senile fungus:
Yeah. I think the icons when you press menu were different before. I don't know why they would have changed, or if, but they all look dull and grey while the 'more' button looks dark and shiny.

I don't remember seeing that before

What does yours (without the mod) look like when you press menu in the browser?

~ I'm a fungi
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
All I did was take calk's browser.apk, change the 4 lines in smali to allow for 16 windows and removed the extra lang files. Then I rebuilt with apktool. I'm not so in-depth. Maybe you wanna take a look at it and see if you would change anything? Unless that would keep you from 4.5, in which case I take it back. :D

Edit: I lied. I forgot I also used some tool that was posted here somewhere to "pack the apk" which actually made it slightly bigger :confused:. Maybe the original would be better?
[EVO 4G Android Development] a senile fungus:
Ah maybe that's why... I thought you took mik's browser and applied the mod to it.

[EVO 4G Android Development] localguyincali:
I'm not sure if this is a bug or anything, but i noticed in spare parts under windows ani,/transitions ani, after fresh install of rom there set to fast but after a reboot/battery pull there not set like that anymore, windows ani, goes to off and transitions ani, goes to slow. any thoughts or this normal?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
That's what I wanted to do but I was only able to find instructions on how to add windows, not on how to disable reflow.
[EVO 4G Android Development] WhiteiceDMSTech:
Please don't mistake me, your theme is absolutely awesome, and no I am not kissing arse here.

I just got used to the LP thing with my regular stock EVO and Hero and so I wasn't sure if there was something similar or not.

I too like the way the theme and OS work as is, hence the reason I asked if there was a way to do it without using LP because I just don't want to use it.

Thank you again for your hard work and taking the time to break it down for me,

[EVO 4G Android Development] a senile fungus:
Well that's a lot farther than I got, that's for sure. Thanks a ton

I know we are supposed to get this thread about the ROM, but I just got stuck on the way home from work tonight (this is my second winter in Illinois and never been through something like this) and I got stuck on the way home.

No tow trucks were coming out and the cop couldn't use his SUV to push me.

Thank the lord above for these 2 gentleman that drove by in there truck and asked if I was stuck and towed me out so I could get home.

So thank you for the work you do going out there and plowing and clearing the roads for us.

[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
yes.

that tweak is useless from what i can see and from what everyone is saying... plus... like i said... all the data settings menus are in those files that the tweak says to take out... so there is no other way around it unless u simply comment out the code for throttling... and thats a lot of work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] klymptof:
I reflashed beta 2 to take out the battery mod from Slayer (although I do like the speedo battery). I have had 0 problems, but one of the apps I have installed is Quick Settings. When I check the stock settings to reproduce the fc everyone is getting on networks, I am not getting it here. The only other items I have flashed is the hulu fix you posted and the sbc 4.2.2 non-havs v7 kernal.

I would suggest for those that are getting fc's to try Quick Settings from market first, and then if that doesnt fix it, try a kernel you are familiar with.

Again, zero bad things happening on this phone so far. Great work!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ejc1214:
Mik,

The patch fixed the FC on network settings! Thanks for the fix.

I will be using the phone a lot today so I will have better idea on the ROM but so far I like it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
guys i have a quick question... did anyone switch from this rom to another one after this?

im wondering if the difference was felt or not.

u dont have to name names... i would prefer if u dont actually... but i do wonder if someone did it and did/didnt feel a difference in performance.

im asking cuz im very interested to see if this ROM really changed what u guys expect from your phone/roms or not.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Helton566:
Not to knock your rom but I was running you first release then babiboi released his with your base (kinda) so I tried that and it is noticeably faster. Then when you released beta 1 I tried that and still his was faster. Then you released beta 2 and I tried that last night and to me his is still faster. Like I said im not knocking your work but I think it would be worth you time to take a look at his rom to find out his secret sauce.

[EVO 4G Android Development] dukins:
To answer your question, I will definitely say there is a big difference and it was felt for the better in this rom compared to other roms. This rom should be a standard. After coming from a pretty popular rom, I am emphatically sticking with this one. Just need a zip to remove the extra animations and it will be my daily driver. Thanks a awesome job op.
[EVO 4G Android Development] u921333:
I flash to different ROMS at least every 2 days and tried just about all of them and so far this is the fastest ROM I have put on my EVO. Great Work!!!

My sister has a stock EVO and for fun I compared the two and wow it is absolutely amazing the difference.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bcarter2000:
My 3G down speeds went something like this:

V4.0/V4.1 - .40Mbps average

V4.2 Beta 1 - .60Mbps average

V4.2 Beta 2 - .95Mbps average (Highest was 1.1Mbps)

That was a welcome change, but what I wasn't expecting to see was the wifi went through the roof after I flashed beta 2. 11.96Mbps down, coming from 1.4Mbps average on every other rom I've tried so far. Maybe it was a good night with Comcast, but I don't believe in coincidence.

No 4G near me :(

Edit: Upload speeds remained a constant average of .6Mbps across all roms, and no force close on network settings toggle. I tried to make it fc by switching it on/off several times (20 or so), never happened.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
U not knocking my Rom man... I talk to babiboi a lot... so I know for the most part what's up in his rom.

On gonna say that this is what I like to see though... that was the whole point of me making this rom... so other will use it.. not only cuz its faster... cuz its simply better.

Now... when asked about other roms... maybe I should have been more specific... cuz I meant roms not based on mine.

If its based on mine... its not really a good compare to whether this Rom/method of opt/tweaks should be used as a standard or not.

U follow what I'm saying here?

And also... keep in mind that this Rom is still pretty stock... not really my own preferenceon this versions yet... I'm still kinda trying to give everyone a stockish base.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Nefariouss:
Did some speed tests for you. No wifi as I'm at work. Tested out against your 3.25 Rom.

3.25 Tests Avg

3g Down = 1826.8

3g Up = 684.4

4g Down = 7237.2

4g Up = 910.4

4.2 Beta 2 Test Avg

3g Down = 1751.6

3g Up = 676.2

4g Down = 8872.6

4g Up = 938.2

Ran five tests on each one from the same spot. On the 4.2 beta 2 tests the 3g download speeds started off strong at 2020 & 2016 but plummeted to 1867, 1587, 1268 for the last three tests. Overall I'd say the speed improvements work nicely.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommy246p:
I am also using beta 2 no app2s and I am not seeing any FC here either.
[EVO 4G Android Development] klymptof:
I switched to your rom from Vaelpak 2.3 after flashing his 3.0 at release and it getting recalled due to bugs.

Your beta 2 vs vaelpak 2.3 = beta 2 is faster for me. Keep in mind this is comparing a sense rom against an aosp rom, so read into it as you will.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sobis1dm:
Absolutely noticed a difference. Once I learned I could flash a font pack (i hate stock font) I threw this on my Evo after a long run with a (very) popular sense ROM. right away I noticed the speed difference. I flashed back to the old ROM because my WiFi profile didn't backup, and now that I'm back on this after a night with yours the difference is extremely noticeable. thanks thanks thanks.

My phone's sync icon is always on and wont' shut off, it's killing my battery. Even if I shutdown syncing from the toggle bar. Anyone else getting this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Helton566:
Check your accounts and see what's syncing.

Sent from Tapa Tapa!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neo3D:
I used your ROM, then went to Azrael cuz his had more free space. Your animations look faster than stock, ie, instead of setting the "animation tweens" to .5 seconds, yours feels like .25 seconds. That doesn't mean that your ROM is more efficient and truly running faster, it's just a shorter tween time. Azrael also does this with his ROM.

However, there is something efficient about your ROM, because if the ROM isn't running efficient, short tween times would look choppy. If you hold the power button on both yours and Azrael's ROMs, your animation plays smoothly, while his is choppy. Azrael uses a different type of animation tween to bring it in the shutdown dialog, so that could be why his is choppy?

It's tough to say cuz everything isn't apples to apples. Just my observation, hope that helps.

BTW, is there a way to make the pull down status drawer background less transparent?

Also, my sync icon is always on, any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] brock1909:
love the roms ( its always something when someone starts off like that, haha)

no, my only issue is with the new beta, my battery is terrribly, i can watch it drain percent by percent. ive done 3 fresh installs of the newest beta and i hadnt had this problem at all on the other ones...maybe i got a bad DL?

i also think its great that i take your nice smal files and add my pngs to them and they get huge all over again
[EVO 4G Android Development] sobis1dm:
I too wouldn't mind a darker notification shade.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
ok... i can easily see that u never read what was done here with the rom in the first place... cuz u think its "only speeding animations".

now... this is basically my built of a sense rom... i took all the apks apart... yes even the ones no one uses... and rebuilt all of them one by one.

i will repeat my self again in a quick way with the actual stats and facts of whats the diff here... and im gonna compare to a cm rom mainly.

this rom uses in avg half of the cpu usage that a cm rom use up.

this rom takes less space on your phone (yes some roms clean more apps but i keep it stock for now... so crap will take more room).

the free mem on avg on this rom is above 150mb, again... cm is approx 110mb.

reminding u this is a sense rom... not a cm rom.

its not only the speed... and u really gotta stop thinking that animations time made shorter making thing work faster and/or better.... u said it your self "choppy".

and btw... my anim are set .75... and .5... not even close to .25. (im not even sure u know what or where u even set that btw...)

u know what i dont like so much man... the fact that u kinda implying that all i did is BS and im just f'ing with u guys for fun.

so... if u dont like dont use, but u know what... in the end... and i promise u that... all roms will be based on my ideas that were introduced in this rom (aka reengineered) and only time will show u that.

so... whether im BSing u or not... u will use what i did here... if u know it or not, like it or not, or want it or not.

edit:

just saw your pm... i appreciate that u thanking me man... but your response makes me feel like u really think im BSing u by using cheap tricks.

anyways... i left the long message cuz i wrote it already... and i think u need to understand a little better what was done here.

sorry if it sounds like im pissed at u... cuz im really not, so please dont take this message in the wrong way.

[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Actually, I'm on 4.3.....:o. When I was going to flash 4.4 aamikam already had a couple betas up of 4.5 so I just never ended up doing it and decided to wait for 4.5 final. I guess I'm not as big of a flashaholic as most people here. And to those who will say it, I know aamikam's betas are stable, I'm just happy as I am right now.

Edit: anything else different from a stock browser I should change?

Would it be possible to get a zip to put the read ahead kb for the SD card to 512 instead of 128?

I tried to modify one myself but it did not work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
it wont last a reboot cuz i changed it in the actual boot image.

i can make u a zip... just like what calk put up... only if it will see the value 128 it will change it instead of looking for the value 4.

im working on some stuff now... so ill have to wait on making u one.. but if anyone else out there that knows how to make a falshable can grab a quick look please do so.

all u need is to open the script in the system/etc/init.d from calk zip and u change the if = 4 to if = 128.

and make the write value to be 512 instead of 128.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
I can try. Can you link me to the 128 one?

Edit: Never mind, I found it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cetac:
Thanks...I will even try that myself...worst I can do is fail with it too ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] noregretzzzz:
As a caution, I've been reading dark tremors thread and if u use the latest a2sd and change the read ahead to something other than 128, it can cause problems due to the read ahead script he implemented as well.

The device is a BluAnt Q1. It's updated to the newest firmware (which supports A2DP). I didn't have any issue streaming music or hearing GPS directions through it while trying AVA's Z1 Rom, which I believe uses a stock HTC kernel...I change my setup so much, I forget what's what sometimes. The audio streaming (a2dp) isn't working with the newest ziggy bfs kernel, so I will flash net's in the morning and post the result. I am open to other suggestions in case that doesn't work though.

Thank you.

I use the T1 myself and it is working fine for me with the setup in my Sig.

I am also using the Blue Ant App for my T1. Not sure if they have an App for the Q1 but you might check on it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cameronsutor:
They do. It's not in the market, so you have to get it from their website. I don't believe it adds features, just supports pairing, turning on/off Bluetooth, etc. I actually need to download that again anyway, so thanks for mentioning it. I'll hit the "thank you" button when I get on the regular site, for the reminder.

Bluetooth, well, specifically A2DP, is supported by the kernel, correct? So the kernel swap might fix it...

Thanks again for the responses, cetac.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cetac:
I don't know if it is the kernel or the rom that supports it...but it works for me.

The app may have additional background support that you don't see..it is worth a shot.

For those of you that wish to try out 512 read_ahead_kb on your phone's to see if it makes things any better, do the following in Root Explorer:

sys>devices>virtual>bdi/179:0

then select and long-press

[I]read_ahead_kb[/I]

when a menu pops up, scroll down and choose

Open in Text Editor

change the value to 512 and save it as it prompts you when hitting the Back button.

Now, go to the market and download:

SD Card Speed Test

Run it 3 or 4 times and take the average of your results.

** Note, the first test you run can always be a bit slow, especially on the write side, so throw that out.

UPDATE: I am running a Class6 16 GB Sandisk card and my speeds did not increase from 128 to 512.

UPDATE #2: As informed by jauger (thank him), class 6 cards may benefit more from a setting of 256. I have tried this and can confirm that I did pick up a point on both read and write at this setting.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Noticed some people mentioned they are running BFS kernels. If you are experiencing some unstable behavior on your phone, consider going with a CFS kernel instead. There is a large group to search from in my siggy link.

BFS can work for you, but many members have experienced instability with it.
