Yeah definitely downgrade to PRI/NV 1.77. It might be a good idea to put that in the original post instead of suggesting to update them all. It would probably keep people from posting about battery life as much ;)

I know downgrading really helped me. I went from 9 hours to 19 hours!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jklong03:
yup....it is in /System/app/*powercontrolwidget" (or something like that, hell, look for yourself, you will see the "lightning bolt" icon somewhere like 2/3rds of the way down the list if you are using RootExplorer to look in that directory.
[EVO 4G Android Development] a senile fungus:
It is part of the app that changes the settings of the notification power widgets on the status bar.

The app is the UI that JS created to customize the power widgets

So I'm assuming (oh no!) That if you remove that app you will have removed that widget

I don't know of that would affect the notification widgets though

Make backups, and you may want to nandroid if you're serious about removing it. I'm a noob around here, but I get the feeling there's more to that app than just an app, know what I'm saying??

Let us know

[EVO 4G Android Development] a senile fungus:
Nice.

I wonder if any settings applied via the app will remain after its removal

For example, if I set the flashlight to deathray through the app, then remove the app, will the deathray flash be retained?

i just thought of something... there was a theme like that back in my manila days.

basically... everything in grayscale... no colors at all.

im gonna do it now to see how it will look with the white theme... just for fun.

if that works... u guys will have a few extra themes to pick from... and yes... all will be max minimal cuz no colors for anything... im even thinking about removing the colors from icons and such.

ill let it run all night and see if i can show u guys something in the morning.

btw... lockscreen mods will be up in the morning.

making a theme comprised completely of grayscale would essentially keep every aspect of the phone slimmed down and consume less energy because no colors are being forced to the pixels, right? so essentially, you'd make the greatness even greater? Can't wait to see the final product.

Amikam, I followed your guide for tweaking the framework-res.apk to disable the low battery notification. But now my system is very unstable. My phone hot restarts when I long press the home button, and a lot of text is either not aligned properly or wrong color. What did I do wrong?

Mik! You are awesome! This is my second ROM I have tried out and Wow! It is amazing. I had to show it off to some friends and most where jealous haha, I have found an issue not sure if anyone else has had it. But, I play a lot of games and so far 2 of them while playing make a "clicking/popping" sound while playing the game.. it sounds like the speaker is gonna blow. Other then that it runs perfect. Had a few "sense" fc's but they went away.. After a Reboot. :) Simply wonderful.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
dont know... but im pretty sure u did do something wrong.... maybe u used apktool 1.3.2... which is giving a lot of errors in the xmls... so try to do the same from the start using v1.3.1
[EVO 4G Android Development] boosted98taco:
I totally understand. I'll wait it out. Hopefully he'll respond to you.. Thanks again!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shauli20:
Thanks. Will do.

What's even more annoying is that not only is my framework messed up, but it didn't even change the low battery notification. I just reached %15 and the familiar alert popped up...

I changed both values in the XML. Is there anything else that needs to be changed?

Edit: Here is some of the quirkiness I'm experiencing.

As you can see, the image for the ringer volume is messed up.

Issue found:

When connecting (pairing) my phone to my car via bluetooth, I am queried to enter a set of digits displayed on the cars screen into the phone.

The phone pops up a box to enter the number, as it should, along with a keyboard to enter said number, as it should.

The issue is that the box for the entry of the number continually lays partially on-top of the keyboard thus not allowing me to enter in the code.

Workaround was to go to any other input acceptable page (color notes), type in the numeric pairing code, copy it, and then go back to the previous page and paste it in.

EDIT: I have paired this phone previously, along with my wifes EVO, without this issue arising a multitude of times in the past. The opposite problem manifests itself, where I can enter the code via the keyboard but I really cant fully see what I'm typing. This is not ideal, but irrelevant as I can still type in the code carefully.
[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
Nice write up man. I was thinking the same thing. Colors make MUCH more of a difference with amoled screens supposedly, but when I had an epic, it seemed like only the extremes made any kind of significant difference (i.e. all black vs. all white background).

Gentlemen ... clearly this ROM is the "BEST" and I commend all of you for providing a positive, informative, and even humorous forum allowing even us "Noobs" a chance to learn and enjoy. Thank you all! So ... I have been using this ROM for several days and I've had very few problems; those that I have had are generally fixed by reading here. However, one frustration persists and it is not consistent. Many times, after my phone has sat for a good while, I cannot answer an incoming call. The lockscreen 'stumbles' as I attempt to slide it down and the phone call is terminated before I can answer. Very frustrating. Any clues out there from all of you GURUs? Thanks again!

Any chance you have her underclocked when the the screen is off (profile in setcpu)? Looks as though you're using the stock kernel, so maybe this isn't the case...
[EVO 4G Android Development] skrape06:
Yes, I do have a profile installed that underclocks when the screen is off. I also thought that may be the problem and uninstalled SetCPU to check. The problem persisted just as it did with SetCPU. Thank you for the response.
[EVO 4G Android Development] newbapotamous:
I'm just going to take a stab at it, but maybe someone else might be able to clarify. I think, given your SetCPU profile, your phone may be underclocking severely. My Evo had the same problem when underclocked to 128Mhz - so the minimum I ended up leaving it at is 245Mhz. Some Evos can handle the underclock, some can't. You may want to look for a more suitable kernel or just manage a profile on set cpu such that when the phone is "screen off", it locks it to 245Mhz. Might clear up your problem, but if any of the higher-ups have a better idea, then I'm all for it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] newbapotamous:
the problem may have persisted due to the previous settings. you may need to reinstall setcpu, fix the underclock, then re-uninstall. i've noticed that as a problem too. its kinda how i fixed it on my end as well, but every evo likes to behave differently.
[EVO 4G Android Development] luckylui:
My setcpu is 1113 max 128 low w one profile of screen off @ both 245 n priority 100, kernel is nets 4.3.1 latest release cfs version... getting awsome battery off it and updated pri and stuff. Didnt downgrade to 1.77

Are you running your Dalvik Cache from either your /cache/ partition or /sdcard/? If so, flashing some of Mik's earlier lockscreens or animations may have resulted in a2sd moving that Dalvik back to your internal memory resulting in generally funky behavior (such as you are describing).

To check, type:

adb shell

/system/bin/a2sd check

Look at the resulting output and see where it says your dalvik cache is located. If it says "internal memory", you will want to rerun:

a2sd cachesd << to place it back on sdcard

-or -

a2sd cachepart << to place it on the /cache/ partition.

If your sdcard is not Class 6 or above and you have not partitioned it, I recommend you run the:

a2sd cachepart

command to save yourself 60+ mb of space on your /data/ partition by moving your Dalvik to your /cache/ partition.

After your phone has rebooted, enter:

adb shell

/system/bin/a2sd check

again to make sure everything is where it is supposed to be.

Crash using speed dial

Mik, I love the ROM...i've tried others but keep coming back to this one as my daily driver.

Only thing i have noticed is that com.android.phone force closes when I try to use #2 on my speed dial (which is for customer service)...I am sure this isn't a commonly used feature for many but it is a crash nonetheless and thought you might like to know about it... I do not know if it happens to others. Once the crash occurs I can not dial out any other numbers on the phone until I clear data on the dialer app (this includes manually dialing a number and trying to dial from contacts). If I manually program a speed dial number it works without a problem.

I'm on 4.4 with no theme or mods installed other than what is included in the ROM, and i'm using Netarchy Toastmod - 4.3.1-cfs-havs-nosbc as my kernel. I've tried a wipe and reinstall and it happens on fresh installations too.
