So one more question:

After you apply the zip will it still notify you that 4G is available or are all the 4G notifications removed? Anyone know?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
guys... post #4 is a lot to take in... so make so u go over it slow... there is A LOT in it.

much work was put into it... so give thanks to chingy51o.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
YES it is!! Good lord. Going to have to tackle it when I get home from work. Might do all my downloading here those because it's MUCH faster! ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ss7seven:
Miko

You have successfully prevented me from getting any actual work done for the rest of the day.

And for that, I thank you.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
i think that the funny thing is that it is only half the stuff that were planned to come out with 4.5.... so there is much more coming... but time is an issue now... so im not sure when.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ss7seven:
Definitely no rush man.

You put out a quality product, I would rather have a few functioning options than having a ton of mods that do not work.

Quick question though.... How long does metamorph usually take to initialize? It has been sitting on the initializing spalsh for about 10 minutes now. I'm thinkin I may need to kill the pid and restart the app.
[EVO 4G Android Development] skrape06:
Okay, first a repeated thank you to all who "donate" time so generously so that I can enjoy my phone the way I want to. I owe you all a deep portion of gratitude. But, it's getting frustrating. I went back to post #4 and found, downloaded, and went to flash the Rose "blank-phone-blank" exactly as what I was needing. To do so I had to unload ClockworkMod recovery and flash Amon. Okay so far, it worked and the flash worked flawlessly for the new rosie. Now I have the new rosie but it has no legend "Phone" in the center and it responds to my selection touch my giving me the apps drawer, the apps drawer, and the internet - NO phone selection. Where do I go from here? Please!
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
Go to the settings in Meta and change the settings to disable checks and make it apply faster. (again thanks chingy for the tip)

that should help it speed wise.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ss7seven:
Thanks. Got to initialize
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
will be fixed.

although im not sure why u want it... its just like the stock one that on the rom already...
[EVO 4G Android Development] kegacide:
decided to update to 4.5, so far so good... all is working great, very fast ROM...

decided to make a donation to show my gratitude for all the work that goes into creating and mastering these roms...
[EVO 4G Android Development] skrape06:
But Mik, this is what I have been discussing with you on gTalk. I do not have a bar on my phone since the upgrade to v4.5, only the word "Phone."
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
so u talking about the 4x5 right?

mmm... i thougt u meant something else...

ok man... ill get on it now... ill just make the rosie apk though... cuz u have the widgets.

the ones that are on post 4 are updated to the new build.... with colors i think also... so i just gotta put up the rosie.
[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
Ha ha. Yeah, that's exactly what I suggested last night. Only thing I could think of that would cause that kind of interference. We definitely determined it's not rom related. Same thing happens with my wife's stock phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] TweetyBear:
post 4 looks intimidating :confused: i flashed the 4.5 rom only and want the 4x5 rosie n workspace. what would i have to flash? tia
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
this thread and all the mods out are pretty scary... i know.

u say u want 4x5... but what kind of 4x5... there are like 20 diff ones.

edit:

i really need to put up a team together and start my own forum that will deal with my roms... this is too much right here.

im going to do diff phones also... so even more need for a team and my own website.... but no time... ill try to do my best to help u guys out... but school is kicking my ass now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jelive:
Haven't used myself...just had seen them before. Believe by description it's just the 4G Antenna On icon in upper left is eliminated. Should be able to recover tho if it's not what you want with SteelH zip to restore it. Come on you know you want to flash it...Go For It :D

Jim
[EVO 4G Android Development] doorpz:
Yeah I was thinking the same thing. It's getting kind of ridiculous in here. Even if you use the search function you can get so many results that it just gets frustrating to try and wade through them all. I was thinking about putting together a faq sheet of common problems but honestly I just don't have the time.

On another note the metamorph stuff worked flawlessly, I'm rocking the speedo battery gauge now. Thanks for all your work (and chingy too), I'm back in school now too and still working so I feel your pain.
[EVO 4G Android Development] newbapotamous:
Just to clarify - the Chingy mods are only for 4.5? i ended up flashing the rosie mod and tried the metamorph things on 4.4 and it left me with a blank bar on the bottom. really weird, but i'll give it another go when i get home on 4.5.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mdixon4az:
I think he wants to make sure he can use your 4x5 rosie from v4.4. I have read every post since you released v4.5 and am still not 100% sure the old 4x5 mod will work properly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] doorpz:
I believe some do and some don't, depends on what files are changed when it's flashed. The white one doesn't work but I believe the plain 4x5 does.

Sent on the go from my mikfro evo
[EVO 4G Android Development] skrape06:
Everyone ... please, a special note. I am here to say that not only does Mik work hard to provide us all a great product that we all enjoy but he is also personally connected to our need. I know this first hand. In this day and age where the norm is always "what's in for me," his selfless devotion deserves commendation. Thank you Mik, your future success is virtually guaranteed and if every you need a reference, give me a call!
[EVO 4G Android Development] chingy51o:
Use my 4x5 mods in post 4. They work with 4.5

Sent from my Incredible ass phone which is running an incredible ass rom
[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
I have HW 0003, and I'm having the problem. My wife's is v 0003 as well, and she's having the problem. This is seriously sounding more and more to me like a hardware problem.
[EVO 4G Android Development] localguyincali:
Been playing around with mods on page #4 :D been playing with the animations thankgod someone made it to where we only have to use metamorhp instead of flashing them :p here is a shot of the clear title bar and changed battery, still havent changed my icons yet till i figure out what i want to use...
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Hmmm, not having success with Carbon Lockscreen:

When I went there, my HtcLockscreen.apk was already named properly.

I used Metamorph to flash this and it did so without any apparent errors. However, when I rebooted I did not have the new lockscreen.

Ideas? If I overlooked something incredibly obvious and stupid I apologize in advance :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] quocamole:
not a complaint, but some questions/feedback...

anybody try the black bar lockscreen (post 4)? not working for me. will go through the motions, reboot and nothing changes.

stock transition animations worked for me though.

edit: no go for the clear pattern lock either
[EVO 4G Android Development] localguyincali:
try a battery pull, i just noticed from adding the stuff i did i lost the sounds i had set fo each thing, email,txt, ringtones, but i didnt pull battery i just shut off phone waiting 30seconds booted backup all sounds back to normal,
[EVO 4G Android Development] doorpz:
I tried to unzip first couple 4x5 rosies and I got this error from metamorph.

Edit: Disregard I'm a moron, these are flashable files. That's what I get for trying to mod my phone while it's crazy busy at work. It does cut off sense widgets though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] quocamole:
tried the battery pull and no go. i didn't have any issues with sounds though. regardless, thanks for the help.

what kind of "stuff" did you add that made your sounds go wonky?
[EVO 4G Android Development] JLine05:
Don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet but it looks like 4.5 breaks the HTC news widget when you apply one of the colored themes. ROM is running great though, thanks man.

UPDATE TO MY APPS2SD TUTORIAL:

Guys, after much testing, I have determined that your apps will run best if left on the /data partition within your Internal Memory. Of course, if you have more than 300 mb of apps, you may begin to run into space problems and still want to house your apps on your ext3.

I have updated my tutorial on the subject to reflect this finding. I'll post the update here as well:
[EVO 4G Android Development] chingy51o:
those instructions are for my rom cuz i set vanilla lockscreen by default. =P lol but hmm try applying it again. sometimes it takes a few trys to get it to stick. let me know if that works..
[EVO 4G Android Development] TOOLhead08:
You need to flash the Rosie zips. I got the same error. I flashed a couple in recovery without issues.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mando41:
open the file and if it has "META-INF" Per to miks guide dont use with metamorph because its a flashable file.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
That's odd that applying it multiple times would work. Isn't it basically just changing the lockscreen png files in your com.htc.resources.apk?

I can always do that manually if this doesn't work.

UPDATE: Nope, tried 3 times, not working. Will just do it the old fashioned way :)

UPDATE: Perhaps the issue is that in MikFroyo 4.5, the folder that controls the lockscreen is named "drawable-hdpi-v4"
[EVO 4G Android Development] chingy51o:
those rosie are not metamorphs. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS AND DONT ASSUME THINGS. that will solve 99.9% of everyones probelms.. it probably ends up taking you more time having to post your issues and trying to fix them. ALL of those files were tested so i know for a fact they all work..

hmm thats strange.. that shouldnt happen. which color did you flash? and you didnt mix up the 4x5 and 4x4 widgets right?

keep trying to apply them. theres no reason why they shouldnt work..
[EVO 4G Android Development] quocamole:
do i sense another link in your sig.... :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] chingy51o:
metamorph can be buggy at times... but yes just dropping the files in your com.htc.resources.apk will do also. =)
[EVO 4G Android Development] bcarter2000:
I must have overlooked it 20 times. Thank you very much!
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Perhaps the issue is that in MikFroyo 4.5, the folder that controls the lockscreen is named "drawable-hdpi-v4"? Your Metamorph is adding a new folder just called "drawable-hdpi"
[EVO 4G Android Development] chingy51o:
are you sure its like that on 4.5? mik rebuilt the apks to get rid of the -v4 extension. did you flash one of his old mods that possibly could have re-added that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] JLine05:
Nope just flashed the regular 4.5 download and the royal blue theme. Cleared cache and dalvik before flashing the theme.
[EVO 4G Android Development] doorpz:
Yeah i realized that after I tried twice, honestly they are right in between 2 sets of mods that are metamorphs and it's not really labeled as flashable files so I'm sure it will be a common mistake made. Once you do flash them they cut off the stock htc widgets: calendar, favorites etc. There was also this issue with mik's 4x5's when they were first out but I forget what the fix was.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chingy51o:
and oh yeah. if you guys can refrain from clicking on the pics in post 4 that would be great. i have limited bandwidth on photobucket and at this rate its going to be used up and there gonna get disable until for a month or unless i upgrade to pro which i have no intent of doing.. lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] TweetyBear:
did not know that, now it's even more scary :( i'm running stock 4.5 w nothing else. i want the 4x5 for the theme that comes w the rom. i use what comes w the rom so less chance of getting problems :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Hmmm, flashed a GB mod from 4.4 (did it before your stuff came out) and that probably did it. Will dump that mod and just use the GB status bar you guys offer. Thanks for the heads up.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mando41:
did you flash the 4x5 widget on post #4 before you flashed the 4x5 rosie mod?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Medic97:
Sorry for posting this but i cant seem to find a post with a clear answer. I just flashed v4.5 yesterday and 3 times after a clean wipe and install i tried to install "MikFroYo-v4.4-4x5-Rosie-Workspace-signed.zip" and "MikFroYo-v4.3-4x5-Workspace-Calendar-Agenda-4x2-signed.zip". Flashing them separately with reboots in btwn every time. after i would reboot the last time i would get constant FC dialer and FC messaging app. So i assumed its not safe to load them on 4.5. can anyone confirm if it is safe so i should try agian or is there going to be an updated file for 4.5?

I used the stock 4.5 with no mods yet. using 4.3.1 No SBC: netarchy-toastmod-cfs-havs-nosbc-universal Kernel.

Please if someone can clarrify and thanks in advance.

BTW kick A$$ rom the best i found so far and if there is a vote for you to have yoru own site then im voting in yes Its great to have one central location for all your versions and a folder with all the mods that work for that version. Thanks for all you do for us. You got yourself a new fan...
[EVO 4G Android Development] doorpz:
no I'm a jackass and totally missed them. I'm just going to stop messing with my phone and actually pay attention to my job. I'm out of here till I have time to actually pay attention and do **** right.
[EVO 4G Android Development] pongoface:
Found a hiccup on 4.5. I can not for the life of me clear that voicemail icon in the taskbar. It is blackedout in the call settings. Annoying as chit lol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chingy51o:
also guys im going to be porting my colored themes over for mikfroyo (need to chnage a few apks and add some evo stuff you guys use). their very very similar, but a little different. they will come in 4x4 and 4x5. im gonna start doing it later tonight and it shouldnt take too long.. heres what im referring to http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10189493&postcount=3
[EVO 4G Android Development] TweetyBear:
wow..more n more everyday. it's a good thing but also bad cuz it's getting too much for me to follow it all :o +1 on the separate forum :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] SayWhat10:
i understand the first 2, but what exactly is wipe boot and wipe system? I'm using RA v1.8.0

where is the boot and system wipe options?
[EVO 4G Android Development] cheebahawk:
The better half has V0003 but is running Fresh 3.5.0.1. (she doesnt want to change it to Mikfroyo cuz of the hassle of getting used to a new ROM, whatever that means:rolleyes:) Right now I have her Evo playing music thru the speakers and have GPS running, and maps is able to locate me. I tried going into navigation and it still locks onto the Evo 003 position.

Granted I am inside the house, so it doesnt have the exact position on the map down, but Maps is able to lock onto a location. It is within 2-3 blocks of our house.

So it may not be a general hardware issue, but device specific... I hate to say it, but thats the only thing that I can think of since mine (002) and the better half's (003) can play music via speaker & get GPS location.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cheebahawk:
You may want to have Mik put that in post 4 in big bold letters. Burying that on this thread is not going to stop ppl from clicking on the pics LOL.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 1BadHEMI:
Wow! Upgrade to the latest version of RA...
[EVO 4G Android Development] chillenandy321:
+1 here too
[EVO 4G Android Development] pongoface:
Once again please, can someone test clear voicemail notification in call settings. It is always greyed out and unusable. Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] 1BadHEMI:
If you are on wifi, make sure to turn OFF location services. It is working cause it is using wifi for gps, and not the actual gps reciever in your phone.

I thought it was working last night as well. Sure as anything, while laying in bed last night, I thought about it, so on the way to work this morning, I tried, and lo and behold, no gps lock! As soon as I turned down the audio, gps locked on instantly. Definitely a issue with interference between the speaker magnet and the gps antenna.

I am curious if the European EVO has this problem as well? I know on the Thunderbolt, they relocated the speaker to the bottom back of the unit. It looks like the AT&T Inspire's speaker is identical to the EVO's. Wonder if they moved the components around to avoid this.

Probably why HTC could "never" fix the issue to begin with...

Can someone test this metamorph of my Blue-MikFroyo-Rosie? I have never done any MetaMorph but it seems easy enough. Just need to know if it is correct. I need testers because they say "if its too good to be true, it probably is". In other words it was way too easy to make this up so I need testers to verify it does work.

[metamorph]Rosie-Blue-MikFroyo.zip
[EVO 4G Android Development] 1BadHEMI:
Mine is greyed out as well. Did you change your Voicemail service carrier? I selected "My carrier", and I do not have any notifications that won't disappear after listening to my voicemails.
[EVO 4G Android Development] n7aq00:
Wow.. this ROM hella fast and smooth..
[EVO 4G Android Development] godfirst:
No issues over here, everything runs smooth, voicemail removes when it'd suppose to.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
ok guys... since this thread has gotten really big and starting to get messy... my own website will hopefully comeup by the end of the week.

over there... ill be sure to have it a lot more organized and a lot more to the point.

btw... i want to say im sorry that i have to kinda leave out xda kinda... but u guys understand.

ill still make sure to update all the time over here... but ill have to keep my focus on the upcoming website.

more details TBA.
[EVO 4G Android Development] pongoface:
All I can select is my carrier. Yes after they make it to visual voicemail they go away. But sometimes they don't download right away so on 4.4 you could go in to call settings and clear the notifications.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cetac:
Tried voicemail / menu redownload? Worked for me on 4.5 beta 5.
[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
Yeah, I didn't mean those were directly related. I think it's a general hardware problem, not necessarily a hardware VERSION problem. Meaning it can't be fixed with software/firmware. I'm ok with it as long as it still works with bluetooth or headphone/aux. jack. Not much we can really do.
[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
Dude, if I ever get this stupid phone call I'm waiting for today, I'll upgrade to 4.5, and then I'll try flashing that. Can't do it as is though, since I'm on 4.4 still. Ring, phone, ring!!! LOL.
[EVO 4G Android Development] pongoface:
I know about the redownload. All I am saying is that the clear voicemail notification is grayed out. So you can't select it ever and you can on 4.4. Go to settings, call. Ahhhh whatever going back to 4.4. It is a little slower but way more stable, themeable, and flawless. Yes and I have been a member since evo launch.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 1BadHEMI:
Mitch - did you figure out your SD card issue today?

I wonder if it could possibly be an I/O error internally? Perhaps HTC had a reason for NOT allowing faster read/write speeds on the SD cards.

That is definitely a strange error though.

Also, with you moving your apps back to internal, are you moving your Dalvik back to /cache?

I tried out the new SD card settings for read ahead (1024). While my write speeds increased to 14 mb, my read speeds dropped to 10. Even with my class 10 card, 128/256 still seem the best to me.

I changed my heapsize back to 32 today. The phone seems a bit snappier from 48. It doesn't seem to effect the Market as of yet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chogardjr:
Don't worry about it, it doesn't work. I think I screwed up the xml file.

I'll be trying again later.

I wrote up a short thesis on Hardware and our phones you may find interesting: Hardware Versions

PS....It's also linked on my "more popular solutions" thread at the top of my signature below!
[EVO 4G Android Development] pongoface:
Ok let me rephrase this. Turn off wifi and data. Have someone leave you a voicemail. You will seea voicemail icon appear in the top left of your screen. You should then be able to go to settings then select call then look under voicemail. Clear voicemail notification should be in white so it will remove the voicemail icon. But it is greyed out so you can not select it. In 4.4 you could do this and any other rom for that matter. All I am saying is that on my 4.5 it is broken. Nandroided back to 4.4 and it worked fine. I need some more confirmations according to aamikim so I know it is something that I did. Thanks everyone
[EVO 4G Android Development] uNiXpSyChO:
I reinstalled the voicemail apk and it seemed to get rid of the icon.

[EVO 4G Android Development] raybudd:
Did you do a full wipe when you flashed 4.5?

yes i did .. i did twice .. and i actually re did the whole thing and still no luck .. hmmm and ill look into that popular wifi issues right now

Ok after a long time of trial and error I have a working flashable with 4x5 workspace and widgets.

MikFroYo-v4.5-4x5-Chogardjr-Rosie_Widgets-signed.zip

It has this clock...

and this Rosie...

I would suggest using the royal blue mikfroyo color theme because it goes really well with it. Here's how it would look...

The only reason I did this was because I was getting A LOT of requests for this rosie and the 4x5 workspace. If anyone wants, I can do the red version of this, just ask.
[EVO 4G Android Development] uNiXpSyChO:
I just removed it with TB and installed it with apk installer. I'm sure pushing it will work too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] raybudd:
Those with wifi issues was because they did not do a full wipe. I haven't known there to be any other cause, which I'm sure has been discussed w/in 50 pages. Try a full wipe, then before you do anything else, let it boot and see it wifi will scan.

HEY TEAM:

Just got word that my company has landed a major contract we have been working on for quite a while now. That's the good news. The bad news is I won't have much free time.

Looks like Mik is getting ready to launch his own website and many of you have become experts in your own right. I have enjoyed being here and enjoyed being a part of TEAM MiK, but the time has come for me to bow out, stage left.

I'll pop in occasionally to say hello. Good luck everyone! :)
