I believed that's attributed to having a custom font. Do you?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
What's that? 4.61 beta??!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] stkiswr:
Lol that may be my problem...thank you
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
You're welcome.

p.s. 4.61 beta on http://themikmik.com!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] the12nv:
It is official...I have found my everyday ROM....this is very slick...kudos Aamikam...between the ROM and customizing I need no other ROM....this is great....
[EVO 4G Android Development] steal25:
Tried flashing this earlier tonight, it seemed to flash fine, but when i opened the app drawer all the apps from the previous rom (kings r3) were still thier but would force close, is this normal or did something get crosssed i downloaded from to diferent places, here and mikmik. before flasking i ran the format all zip and wiped cache and dalvik 3 times.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
I would guess you created an ext partition and had your apps stored there. Did you specifically wipe SD:ext? If not, I would try to wipe that along with what you had done previously and reinstall the ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] steal25:
sounds good ill give it a shot in the morning. thank you!

[EVO 4G Android Development] iTouch24:
still waiting on some nice looking themes for this rom ... checked mikfroyo website and still just basic themes ... cant wait for the port over of some themes ... only thing to me that is putting down this ROM
[EVO 4G Android Development] Pujols:
Got the EVO about a month ago, and added this ROM probably a week after.

Very solid, no complaints really ever. I really haven't had the desire to change.

Great thread.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DevilInPgh:
I hope the download speed problem was taken care of in 4.6. I'll try it out as soon as I get my replacement phone back from Sprint (turns out the replacement Asurion gave me had some 3G speed issues. Choked up on me at first (very slow speeds), then was OK at night. Rooted and flashed Calk's ROM at night. Next day, choked up on me again. Unrooted with the S-ON zip and a clean PC36IMG.zip file. Seemed OK, but not sure. Seemed to choke up today, but not sure, b/c it went back to working, but Ookla's SpeedTest app was showing about 300-400 kbps (actual download speeds may have been faster). When I went to the Sprint store, speed cranked up to 1.6 Mbps. They're doing diagnostics on it right now. Very puzzled).
[EVO 4G Android Development] a senile fungus:
Don't most of the stores have repeaters in them?

You wouldn't want a customer getting bad service in the store...

~ I'm a fungi
[EVO 4G Android Development] raybudd:
I wasn't aware that there were any speed problems with 4.6. My 3G and 4G smoke! A sprint store is the worst place to go for a speed issue. You will never see a problem there. Try a third party Sprint authorized dealer/service center.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DevilInPgh:
They apparently fixed the problem. Apparently it was activated too fast, so they did something to it that I now can't remember. 3G is now much better on stock.

Also, my speed problems were on 4.5 (bandwidth throughput went through the floor). I haven't tried out 4.6 yet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stkiswr:
I will say 3 g speeds are okay where I live.

4g test area

Terrible carport wifi

[EVO 4G Android Development] Batman58:
I'm still on 4.6.. not sure why I would need to update to 4.61. Everything seems fine on my end.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jstn76rs:
You don't have to. 4.61 is just a beta. They are pretty similar so if 4.6 is working for you I would stay there...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Batman58:
Thanks, that's kinda what I thought too. I don't monitor my speeds tho so I really can't say..
[EVO 4G Android Development] ItsDon:
Got bored with CM7 and loaded up this rom last night, very impressive! Speed is phenomenal and I didn't realize how much I missed the stock Sense widgets. Anyway, a lot of the customization links in the OP are dead. Specifically, I'm looking for the rosie that is phone/normal/voice (see picture below). Is this available (odexed) anywhere else? I have registered at themikmik.com but didn't see it there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] captainchris:
Does anyway have problems with the popup windows on handcent and go SMS? If i eever use the popup on landscape mode it force closes HTC sense everytime. Has this issue beenbaddressed? It only happens on mikfroyo Roms. It happens on both my evolution and my wife's.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
You are correct, it is not available yet. The rosies are being worked on as we speak.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ItsDon:
Gotcha, thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] iTouch24:
did i read correctly on a tweet yesterday that 4.61 is dropping today?

anyone know the bug fixes with it?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ItsDon:
Cleaned out some useless things from the system

Took out sprint apps that r on the market anyways

Fixed 4g reboot issue (do not apply the old uncapp data tweak for v4.6... i have a new one for v4.61) (thanks js)

Added "HotSpot" toggle to pcw (thanks js) (u will need to add it to the widget.txt file yourselves)

Fixed a tiny issue with DM (added back lib files to the apk)

16 max tas in browser by default

Added I/O tweak - should improve speed (thanks linux dudes... android is the same as linux lucky for us)

Updated BusyBox to 1.9

Updated GMaps
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
+1. And it already dropped last week............
[EVO 4G Android Development] iTouch24:
whoops ya i see it in the beta section now .. i guess the official is dropping
[EVO 4G Android Development] DevilInPgh:
OK, I have some major gripes with 4.6:

1. No Dalvik2Cache, which was present in 4.5, so I have less app space available.

2. After restoring everything from Titanium and rebooting, my phone got stuck at the white startup screen.

I think I'll stick with Calk's EViO, crappy Market download speeds and all, but at least it'll still work for my phone.

EDIT: Last time I had a ROM that did this to me, it was Koni's ELITE III. Using Calk's FORMAT-ALL worked in the short term, but I think it messed up my USB connection in the long term. Thus, I have to say no thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
Everyone is entitled to run any rom they want, but I want to offer counters to your points.

1) from terminal emulator, enter the following for dalvik in cache:

su

a2sd cachepart

2) I used Ti Backup frequently without issues. Only when restoring system files will cause troubles. If only apps are restored, then there shouldn't be any issue unless the original backup was corrupt.

Sent on the go, from my evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] CheesyNutz:
TB restored fine has to be on your end !
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
+1. Also, how long did you stay on the white screen? It could take a full minute or two until of goes. Did you follow this guide?: http://themikmik.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=222
[EVO 4G Android Development] shiftwig113:
i had terrible luck with this rom...constant random reboots every time i turn on gps.....reflashed a million times and still sucked :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] noregretzzzz:
I thought there is no dalvik on an odexed rom? <confused>
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
How did you flash? See the guide above you. Also, be sure not to restore any system data. Doing so can cause a lot of problems.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
There is no dalvik for system apps which are odexed. User apps however, are still the same, and therefore still have dalvik cache. So if you have a lot of user apps, your dalvik cache could still be significant.
[EVO 4G Android Development] noregretzzzz:
Gotcha. Thanks dude.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DevilInPgh:
After having the same problem with Calk's EViO, I think the problem is the latest build of Busybox. I'm going to do a lone update of Busybox on a fresh flash to make sure.

Also, I examined exactly why EViO was having slowdowns in the Market, and it exactly correlated to how much cache space I had, and the dalvik-cache was eating it up significantly. I think I may come back to MikFroyo after all. One thing though: is there a mod to get a pull-down bar that has a 4G switch on it?

UPDATE: Yes, the latest version of BusyBox is broken. Do NOT use it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Yes, there is. Check my mediafire folder for multiple versions, and if you don't see what you want, I can make you one. I am also working on a guide to help you change them yourself. It will be up on http://themikmik.com when it's done.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
And I'll make a video of how to do it when jades done with it!

Quick Question.. ODEX and framework-res files

Hi all,

I'm still running 4.4 myself since so far I've had zero issues, but figured I might want to attempt to run 4.6 now that it's been released officially.

However I'm a bit sketchy on the whole ODEX vs DeOdex and what that means with regard to what can and cannot be modified...

I don't flash any themes myself, running a pretty stock MikFroyo ROM, however I manually modified a few files to replace a few icons myself. Specifically com.htc.resources.apk and resources.apk in the system/resources files... (I also remember recompiling the services.jar file but for the life of me cannot remember WHY I did so haha)

With this new version being ODEX will I still be able to do that safely just by replacing the graphic files inside the resource APKs as I did with the previous version, or will I just end up mucking things up?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
If you are just replacing images then you should be fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] StormCell:
Help!

I flashed this and mikred. Now I have no clock. Also, the mikmarket force closes. It also did this after first installing. I can't download any apps! Appreciate the help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
What exactly is "this"? Which version? Also, did you get the red theme from http://themikmik.com? See that site for the newest updates.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Hey guys. Just letting you know that v4.61 is out of beta and is now final. Please be sure to READ the changelog on http://themikmik.com.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ItsDon:
Hmmmm, not seeing anything on themikmik regarding 4.61 being final, just the same beta info. Anyway, I'm running 4.61 beta already, have there been any changes to the final?

[EVO 4G Android Development] joabrey:
awesome! i've always loved these roms, fast, stable and, well, great! lol :p
[EVO 4G Android Development] Showtime_III:
i just installed 4.61 and now i have the stock slider, stock battery icon (no %), stock dock bar and i have sprint apps installed. also my wifi doesnt work anymore

i think i did a factory restore before i flashed, did that make me lose my root?
[EVO 4G Android Development] LuvThyMetal:
Yeah same thing happened to me when I installed 4.6. So I went back to 4.5 and mostly everything was back to normal except for my wireless. It's not working anymore. Idk if I should give 4.61 a try if its gonna look stock.

Can you flash 4.61 over 4.5 or is it better to do a full wipe with a clean install?
[EVO 4G Android Development] adamantypants:
PFFFSSSS

Dammit both Mik and Cyanogen had to release updates IN THE SAME NIGHT. I have to go to school in the morning and work afterwards! How am I supposed to get anything done? lol

i dont plan on really skinning it or anything like that cuz im not a cm fan... but... its fun to see what i can do with it.

Anyone running into problems placing widgets? Tried to do a couple HTC calc and people and keep getting not enough room. Obviously there is just wondering if any others have reports of this. Running 4.6.1 with stock kernel, miks blackblue theme, and tommy's sexy rosie.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stkiswr:

[EVO 4G Android Development] rahb0sse:
For the love of god... I cannot find a stock theme for 4.6!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Stable doesn't mean no change. There were some changes, but nothing "major" according to aamikam.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Look at http://themikmik.com in the 4.6x themes and mods section. There are a few already to choose from.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Um.....4.6 is the stock look already......
[EVO 4G Android Development] ItsDon:
Agreed. The file sizes were different between 4.61 beta and 4.61 release. Not sure what changed but "In Mik We Trust" so I went and reflashed the latest and greatest. So far, so good.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Have either of you been using the 4x5 widgets, and now switched to 4x4? Also, did you do a full wipe and flash, or did you flash on top?
[EVO 4G Android Development] robpet2:
just checked my phone.. didnt realize i flashed 4.3 coming from a different rom... its running smooth.. im gonna try and flash 4.61 in a few.. but so far the 4.3 is awsome... GOOD WORK !!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Well if you like 4.3, 4.6+ is a whole new ballgame. Be sure to do a full wipe before flashing, and follow this guide if you need help: http://themikmik.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=222

im good with flashing roms.. only real questions is - the 4.61 is APPS2SD ready correct ??? my apps are already set up in the ext partition... will flash 4.61 once i backup my angrybirds rio and text messages..
[EVO 4G Android Development] joehunni:
The only issue I've seen, if you'd even call this an issue, is that on 4.6 every time I unlock the phone by sliding down the lockscreen the screen kinda flickers really fast once it hits the home screen. It's really really fast but I'm kinda ocd and weird about such things. I don't think I've ever seen this on other ROMs before though so I wanted to point it out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
It has been fixed already in 4.61 :).
[EVO 4G Android Development] joehunni:
hot damn, I'm in love lol
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Yeah, aamikam is awesome like that :D.
[EVO 4G Android Development] robpet2:
4.61 is the beezneezzzz... Crazy fast so far.. No problems...
[EVO 4G Android Development] joehunni:
I already love the amount of customizations available for it but I'm hoping to see some different lockscreens come along now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
You should still be able to use the metamorphs from here: http://themikmik.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=53
[EVO 4G Android Development] joehunni:
I thought 4.5 wasn't odexed like 4.6 so those wouldn't work?
[EVO 4G Android Development] snxxxxx:


Just works for me.. :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] novanosis85:
Lol. The file size does not mean it has changed.... might have added some wallpaper or some spyware... I kid.

If you trust Mik then you would have stayed on the beta. He stated its pretty stable and will go official. Meaning you flashed the same Rom with a different tag.
[EVO 4G Android Development] snxxxxx:
I cant play my youtube. Why? Anyone find this problems? Flash this rom, green theme and data tweak.
[EVO 4G Android Development] novanosis85:
I heard mixed stories on the data tweak borking the speeds. You should retrace your route. Re-flash mikfroyo then check YouTube, then flash the theme and check YouTube and etc
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
Metas only change specific files. It don't matter odex or deodex
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
You are correct, but those metamorphs just swap images so they're ok.

Edit: About time Tommy.....:P
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Then if it means nothing, how can i properly test my device?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
There's also linpack, but why not just feel how it runs to you? That could be better than any random test.
[EVO 4G Android Development] killhr:
Anyone used the hdmi successfully
[EVO 4G Android Development] snxxxxx:
Still can't make my YouTube works. Install then reinstall again from market can't fix it. Also try to flash this Rom again with full wipe for 5 times and now my YouTube still can't play video. It's bugs? Anyone had this prob?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bacidath:
yes... played worms on the big screen
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Really, IMO, a better question would be, why do you feel you need to test how fast your phone is? Does it really matter?

Like Jade said if it "feels" like it runs fast for you, then it runs fast, you don't need a test to tell you that.

I've flashed a lot of different ROMs and Mik's are by far the fastest/smoothest sense ROMs out there and quite honestly they are just about as fast as CM ROMs. I prefer all the sense stuff.

I don't need a test to tell me which one is faster because when I use it I can tell.

Just my 2cents though, FWIW.
[EVO 4G Android Development] robpet2:
It's a shame how fast 4.61 Rom is. But on a side note. What's the easiest way to root a new evo with froyo , without using a pc. One of my coworkers saw my evo and was like its faster than his stock phone
[EVO 4G Android Development] tommytomatoe:
Because evos can be nand-unlocked, you will need a computer. Unrevoked is super easy. Just plug in and run the exe. I always recommend a manual root however for the first time. It allows the user to learn a lot more about the phone and prevent lots of confusion later. I read on root, adb, android ask, et cetera for a good week before I ended up using zikronix guide to root. Just Google "there will be root". Xhaus now has an automated version of all those commands as well

But... if your friend wants, unrevoked is pretty easy although I've never used it

check it out on beta 3 that will be up soon

Amikam, I don't know what it is, but I've been having the disappearing apps issue with every one of your 4. x ROMs. Something that I flash deletes some apps and breaks the market.

Any ideas?

[EVO 4G Android Development] Becoming:
Can't wait until you get things finalized. I'd be flashing each beta, but I've been low on time lately and just loving how great 4.2 has been running for me.

I too agree that having the various mod options available if people want them would be great. The more the merrier I say. I mean that's really why we're all here isn't it? It's for choices and options to make our phones OURS, instead of whatever our carriers decide we should be stuck with.

Keep up the awesome work!
