Maybe I can help with some of your questions.

In recovery, select wipe > SD:ext to wipe your ext3 partition without affecting your other partitions.

You can use Ti Backup to restore apps, and it works with both DT's a2sd (ext3 usage) and froyo's apps2sd without issues. But if you have a nand backup of boot, system, data, and sd:ext, then your apps are restored anyways (provided that you left the contents of the SD card alone, specifically .android.secure folder).

And follow what was previously said; do not backup your old phone's wimax and install it on your new phone. Make sure your mik4.4 nand backup doesn't include wimax. And when you get your new phone, make a seperate backup of wimax by itself.

Hope this answers your questions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] killhr:
My 2 cents ive been on this forum for awhile and been using Miks roms since idk like November December and i was shocked how some of us talked to .psd for his comments or opinions i just want to say if you dont agree dont respond plain and simple everyone has there own OPINION
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Agreed. But you have to admit, that horse was beaten dead a second time at least.
[EVO 4G Android Development] killhr:
Lol i do but i just dont want anyones feelings to be hurt you know but hows that z port
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
Hey Mitchell! Well it is still sense but its cool and I can't quite put my finger on why but the "vividness" of the screens is amazing. Text an pictures seem to jump off my screen. I'm back to 4.6 cause I found a few phone issues that I'll be emailing JD about (call waiting) but it's fast, really vivid and has some cool new sense features.

Didn't load LP to it an I know you love you some LP. But give it a shot.

Have a good one and nice to see you back.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
Anyone else running the MikZ think the colors are more vivid and brilliant? My screen I swear looks almost 3-D. Like the font a well. Text is easy to read. Couldn't figure out the skins that Mik said he was including. When I went into htchub my options were limited to 4.

Hmmmmm....
[EVO 4G Android Development] ooxteme:
I totally agree its freakin clear and crisp as all hell!!!!!! as for the skins hold on a down on the screen like you are adding a widget and then hit skins and there is like 34 of them! They dont show up the the hub in the apps drawer.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
the reason the z beta is soo big is cuz there is pver 100mb of extra skins included.

i will make sure that by the time the final version will be out u guys will be able to get those else where.

just a tiny note... all u guys that dont like sense... should feel free to try it out.

also, keep in mind that the usual bugs much like every z ported rom are still there... so thats something to think about.

personally... i will never understand why someone would want something thats not 100% working as it should... unless u just wanna check it out real quick to see how it is.

i hope we will get something new on our evo's soon... but it starting to look like its not gonna happen if u ask me.

Personally i think that sprint gonna switch to LTE and that all of us that got the Evo very early will get to have fun with a new device that will come out soon instead of the evo (yes we will upgrade).

i noticed that a lot of places push the evo more than anything else... so i assume they r trying to get rid of it to make room for a new device that will take over what the evo is.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
htc hub is only for d/l new stuff they offer... which is really really as lame as it gets.

so i guess u guys like the theme i made... im happy u guys like it... it took a while to make it all blue and make sure everything is in a square shape.

btw... u guys like the inverted clear keyboard... or so so?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kudzus:
Agreed, it did seem like a small step back from what I’m used to reading in this forum.

Having said that, maybe we all can work to get back to where we were…the best forum around.

Just my 2 cents.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
The inverted kb rocks. I wish we could theme the SwiftKey keyboard. Thats my daily and I can bang our some emails and texts with it. But Mik the Blue theme is a work of art. It is beautiful. I'm amazed at how clear it is. Which leads me to this.... that should be the first theme for 4.6!

Thanks for all you do.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
i change the way button are pushed... took a while... but if u notice... there is a log that is diff... i also used some honeycomb graphics in it.

ill make sure to make that theme for the v4,6 and for my shift rom and inc rom (of course chingy is the ruler if the inc stuff)

since u like it so much... i wanna take a sec to thank manup for his initial work and also to myn for his work on the theme.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
I must admit that it was more accurate as well. I never typed as well with that keyboard. It just felt different.... better.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Davidsr1127:
Ok for the life of me I can't figure out why I can't get the Rom's ZIP to install properly... It will say the package is done, but the green bar isn't fully to the end? Than it freezes in recovery and I can't do anything without pulling out the battery and Nandroid back to a previously backed up ROM... Very confused on this one, SMH!
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
You know, after playing with some other roms, it's easy to forget how butter smooth and fast good ole MikFroyo 4.5 is.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mdixon4az:
We have screens of the Z port anywhere?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
The green bar doesn't move, you just have to wait it out until it's really done and then the recovery will go back to normal. It could take a little bit of time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
Have you tried the Odex 4.6? Dude it gives new meaning to buttery....
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
Uh oh.... now we'll have easy peasy Japanesey roms!

http://htcdev.net/topic/282618-htc-evo-4g-going-to-japan/
[EVO 4G Android Development] Davidsr1127:
Well it says its done, than the screen with the option to go back or reboot now etc... pops up and nothing. Cant move through the menu reboot or anything.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
I'll reload it an post some... but man you need to experience the "vividness" for yourself. Not sure that screenies will do it justice.

BTW I'm laying down the patent on that word. Vividness... yeah I'm tagging Mikz with that....
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Is the progress bar gone? Sometimes it waits a little to go away and you can't do anything until then. Also, I should have asked, which recovery are you using?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
I've had that happen as well but like jade said you just have to wait it out and you will be back to normal. Mine only takes like 5-10 seconds to go back to normal. Freaked me out the first time, I thought WTF did I do.:eek:
[EVO 4G Android Development] Davidsr1127:
Well it's in the background barely visible and the menus are above it... Really weird. I've downloaded it several times thinking it may have been the download. Could the calkins (spell check) full wipe maybe have anything to do with it? I'd just like to figure it out and get it loaded and working, lol!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
I edited my last post. It takes a few seconds for it to go away and you can't do anything until then.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Davidsr1127:
Lol, alright cool... I appreciate the help!! Let me give this another shot :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Karl:
Anyone else not seeing adfree not blocking ads in this rom
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:

Busy Night

Ok well I've got a busy night ahead of me. Downloaded MikZ, Mik 4.6, and MikCho 2.5....Now all I need is another Evo. Hey Honey....:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] Karl:
U mean dl update ..yes
[EVO 4G Android Development] .psd:
I'm not pushing it on anyone, the only think I keep coming back to is correcting you.

It does't just "work for me". It works for anyone willing to try it, who you've probably scared off by challenging me so much, thank you. And no, you AREN'T getting the same battery life with the same usage, which is my point. I couldn't care less if you try it, I just care that you're trying to devalue and frankly lie about something that I put about a month's of honest effort into. I didn't build a new ROM but I put worked to devise something unique for the people on this thread who complain about battery life, not for you. So you bet I'm gonna set the record straight when I finally have something of value to post and people whom it wasn't even intended for try to blast it (based on false info, no less).

You don't get comparable battery life, and especially not better life, and no you admittedly don't use the phone the way I do. You manage your cpu (+batt), you don't use autobrightness (+batt) and you admittedly don't use it for calls nearly as much (+batt). I use autobrightness and minimum of an hour phone time daily, and I don't manage the cpu.

I'm doing something that works better, not something that "works for me". For the record I don't care if you try it, but it's there for people who were complaining about batt life.

Now we can all be friends again, I'll go back to lurking in anticipation of 4.6 official release.
[EVO 4G Android Development] localguyincali:
I tried that SPB Mobile shell and i must say its SICK i had no lagg in spinning the desk tops, i'll see if i can make a vid of it later and post it in youtube, even with this rom and kernal was fast!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Kraenesk:
Check out launcher pro plus for 3 bones it gives you all the widgets you mentioned.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mich2Ga:
This I can't wait to see, ROM is still Rocking!
[EVO 4G Android Development] chessmyantidrug:
I'm running LauncherPro with this ROM. Sense doesn't run behind LauncherPro so it doesn't affect battery life. In addition to that, LauncherPro seems to run so much quicker and smoother than it did with a stock ROM. The only reason I can think of is all the extra system resources that weren't available before. When Federico completes his re-write, it should run even better.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ma1993:
I updated to this from the old mikfroyo and I lost all root access. I go to terminal emulator and get no permission. I even went to rom manager and clicked fix permissions and it had a failure. Please help thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stricklerjosh:
Wow, that would be awesome.

mikfroyo evo, with a side of detox !
[EVO 4G Android Development] ebuechler3:
Can I please have the hulu zip or apk thats in this rom I accidently deleted it.. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Evobabe:
do the online gimpsta kitchen work with this rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] TD22057:
Circular battery icon zip file

In case anyone else is new at this like I am and would like a circular battery icon, here is the updated framework file I used to get it. This is the stock 4.2 without apps2sd framework file modified to have the battery icons shown below. You should be able to dump the file to your SD card and flash it in recovery. Of course make a backup first and you're on your own if it doesn't work (worked fine for me).
[EVO 4G Android Development] stricklerjosh:
Hey what kernels has everyone tried and gotten good battery life with? I am specifically looking for info on the 4.3 net kernels as I have a newcamera evo and need my camera to work.

mikfroyo evo, with a side of detox !
[EVO 4G Android Development] Evobabe:
t/y, looks pretty good
[EVO 4G Android Development] SteelH:
The new netarchy 4.3 kernels are awesome, they are based off the latest kernel source, the SBC is cooked into it. I haven't found anything better yet!
[EVO 4G Android Development] finsmaniac02:
I am using baked snacks 6. Came from netarchy 4.2.2 but this seems better. Someone was just trashing bs6 on a thread (forget if here or not) saying it's clock speeds are wrong and that 998 is actually less, but I run basically every kernel at 1115 and this one scores better and gets better battery life. I don't care about scores much, but smoothness and nenamark (which I think is a good test of 3D performance) seem to be pretty truthful to me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aaanadie:
MikFroyo should update OTA

Hello,

I apologize for may bad English, my natal language is Spanish.

I think Mikfroyo 4.2 is the best rom for HTC EVO, I tested a lot of roms but this one is by far the best.

Request to Mikfroyo: Updates at RomManager. I think this rom would be almost perdect with this.

Thank you very much!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Neo3D:
that would be SUPER AWESOME!! i think it would be okay because we all paid for our evo's and so each of us already paid for license to use the widgets. we just don't want to use rosie! lol ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] sgt. slaughter:
Prob was me as its fact and true. I took BS6 and same clock speed and both set on performance govenor the scores in linpack and quadrant were vastly different from any other kernel thats been put out here.

It was discussed in Calk's Evio rom thread b/w him, lucky n myself. There screenshots in there and then Calks post
[EVO 4G Android Development] jkinnison90:
I use the stock #15 kernel with sbc and it works great
[EVO 4G Android Development] ckoadiyn:
is the baked snack based off the new kernal or are they like net n just kinda their own
[EVO 4G Android Development] akastixx:
no. it's his default one from the last few releases that he put out there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sgt. slaughter:
based on old old source and hasn't been updated in a long long time. hence the incorrect multiplier in it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mdixon4az:
I think I will give it try. Just stuck at work now. Would like to see some shots to hold me over until I get off.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
Is it available for Android finally?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
To save everyone I pm'd you my response. FTR I wouldn't really call anyone on here my "friend", I don't even know any of them past this board. If we all happened to be in the same city at the same time and wanted to meet up for a beer I would be more than happy to buy quite a few of them a couple of rounds of beers (or whatever their beverage of choice is, yes even you), because they have helped me out a ton! They've taught me a lot! I respect your opinion but just don't agree with all of it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] localguyincali:
yea, its still beta but i found a copy ;) the apk its a trip!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] aaronw143:
And if so... HOOK IT UP!!?

This is my EVO, there are many like it, but this one is mine...
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
I signed up for the beta but never got an email. I thought it looked cool. Pretty customizable?
[EVO 4G Android Development] raybudd:
Care to share please? I remember signing up for the beta long time ago but never heard anything back.
[EVO 4G Android Development] localguyincali:
yea i didnt dig into it much yet, but you can switch back n forth to sence cause it dont have any sence in it on the shell, in the screenshot i took when you move ur phone tilting it and the screen its on the little icons dance around :D the world globe is killer you can add 3 times zones/countries and that spins fast too when you spin it,

[EVO 4G Android Development] pongoface:
Personally. It is not customizable enough for me yet
[EVO 4G Android Development] pongoface:
Hmmm, it is the non compatible device version. It worked fine for me. No lags
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
Does it need to be pushed?

Edit: that one no worky... :mad:
[EVO 4G Android Development] union122:
is MikCho 2.5 only for testers ? thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] localguyincali:
true about that, but if you have a rom already flashed like 4.5 and color theme, it still has it in the shell, like me im using redtheme and red swype and inverted mms and it all works even the animation transitions, just the home screens are all different no app draw but you can stuff all that in a folder to make it look clean
[EVO 4G Android Development] pongoface:
Nope, I downloaded it to my computer then sent it to my gmail and installed it from there with no problems.
[EVO 4G Android Development] localguyincali:
nah i emailed it to myself through gmail hit intall Bam! DONE
[EVO 4G Android Development] skrape06:
Mik ... MikZ is fantastic. Great work ... as if I didn't expect that already. It is a step up in "Sense"abilities!
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
Hmmm I downloaded it right to phone and it gives parse error.

Oh wait.... I'M AN IDIOT! I said it before any of you guys caught me... I'm running 4.6 odex... bet it won't run on that right?

Somebody triple face palm me quick!
[EVO 4G Android Development] pongoface:
Yes, but I would like to see 3d cube and other transitions between home screens like launcher pro, adw, and miui. That would polish off this beta nicely. Rather than the slide transition. You know the are going to ask $30 when it is final
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Yeah cho was working on his own ROM and wanted some testers, you might pm him and he might hook you up with link. It's real nice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrwright83:
I know what is mikz rom is but what is the mikcho rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
Chogardjr's version of MikFroyo with all his goodies built right in.

Edit: I heard it was the schizzl....
[EVO 4G Android Development] mdixon4az:
Mik 4.5 with Cho's theme built right in.

EDIT: Missed it by that much...
[EVO 4G Android Development] localguyincali:
check ur PM
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
Wonder if it will run on Mikz????

Edit: Spb shell
[EVO 4G Android Development] killhr:
That looks nice
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
How's this?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrwright83:
Do anybody have any screen shots of the MIkZ rom. We would greatly appreciate it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
You know what??? If it won't run on 4.6 I don't want it. 4.6 is so silky smooth on my phone I can't give it up. I have flashed Miui, CM7, Salvage (which I liked) in the last two weeks and I cannot get away from 4.6! It's just too fast and it all works. If Mik can get me some of that Mikz Blue on this odex version I may be done flashing. I liked the new features but the speed is so addictive!

Great work Mik...
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
Now that's My DAWG!

Edit : headed to pc to thank. Nice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Actually, I just tried downloading and it didn't download fully so I got a parse error also. Try downloading from a computer or a different browser.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xxRAMOTHxx:
Okie dokie
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
That would give a used happy meal toy! Awesome!
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Yes it is very nice. Especially for me because the only thing I end up having to flash is the kernel, which I do at the same time as the ROM.

That triple palm face is archived for future use. I thought the double was good, but the triple is just too much! :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] mijjah74:
I'm liking the MikZ Rom. I can live with now 4g, on wifi most of the time anyway. But, the one thing thats a problem is the phone doesn't shut down, when selecting shutdown, it just restarts. The only way I've found to shut down and get to recovery is to pull the battery. Any one know of an alternative. Ah, nevermind, guess I can use quickboot until a fix is made.

Otherwise awesome rom for a beta, nothing less than brilliant as usual, Mik.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Thanks guys. You can play with my toy when I'm done with it :D.

p.s. I hit both of you up :).
[EVO 4G Android Development] mijjah74:
I can provide some here shortly, just give me a couple minutes.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
Google is my friend :D. I think we (I) overuse them a bit. I should save the double and triple for extreme situations and use the single. Oh well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mijjah74:
I can provide some here shortly, just give me a couple minutes.

Edit: That was weird, my post double posted.

[EVO 4G Android Development] skrape06:
Yeah, as you stated, just use QuickBoot to shut it down. I also miss the 4x5 screen layout, got too used to it, but I'll make do without it for awhile as all else seems to work just great except, as has been noted, wimax (don't have it available), front camera (don't use it), and HDMI (haven't got a proper cable to match the micro-connector yet). It is good, very good.
[EVO 4G Android Development] soundwavedj:
I have never had reboots with this Rom until yesterday and today. Only when I shut my earpiece off before I shut Bluetooth off from the power control drop down. Weird right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sockey:
I had the same problem with phone freezing in recovery after flash of rom is finished. I did the battery pull and instead of doing a nandroid backup, I just turned it back on. I let it sit for about 15-20 minutes and it finally started up. If I wasn't fixing dinner I never would have had the patience. It is working great now. Good job Mik.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jadeboy7:
I've done it with the Sense bluetooth widget with no problems. Could just be the power control widgets.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mijjah74:
Here are some MikZ pics for those interested.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mijjah74:
Here are a few more.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Looks real nice! Is the 4x5 workspace not available yet?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mijjah74:
Agree, fast as usual for a Mik Rom. The things that don't work I don't use, except the Wimax, but can do without. I have a portable overdrive, so my 4g can come from that thru wifi. Got my sbc kernel on it now, so we'll test out the battery life.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mijjah74:
Nope, kind of miss it. Got use to it, like everyone else.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Hmm..Yeah I really like that. I assume that will be something that will get themed for it, once they start doing all that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mijjah74:
Here is one more pic, don't know if it was mentioned but the MikZ rom has a power save feature.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mijjah74:
yep, this thing is lightening fast and as someone else mentioned the colors seem more vivid and clear. Very nice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nick1313:
Yeah I'll definitely give it a try, because I'm a flashaholic. Just reflashed MikCho 2.5 and setting it all back up again. So if not tonight I will get it this weekend for sure. Need to do the 4.6 as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jdeloach:
aamikam is in the process of ironing out the bugs in MikZ, as well as updating and having to theme a few apps that changed.. It may be this weekend before a new thread appears ; )
