Voted!! 5 stars!!! i like myn too, but i had to only give him 4 so mik could win!!

when i'll get a chance to.

thanks man... but i dont think it a competition... so give whoever what u want.
[EVO 4G Android Development] killhr:
++1 i would love that too

And also Mik or anyone else who wouldnt mind leading me in the right direction i have searched this forum but didnt come up with "restore wallpaper apks" thats what i put in so if anyone doesnt mind telling me how to do this i appreciate it ..Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] blockhead428:
Just go through gallery and select removed wallpaper. He's already said that there's no sense in putting it back onto the internal storage when they just take up space. All you're missing is being able to select the little thumbnail wallpapers.

I want to switch to amon_ra from the cactus wiping pain of clockwork. Can I just do the "flash alternative recovery" from ROM Manager? It's supposed to use RA 2.2.2

Will this make me have to reflash Mikfroyo again? Will it give me cancer? Eat my children? Abuse small penguins?
[EVO 4G Android Development] selders59:
Just placed a vote for your rom here on the site aamikam. I know you said it is no competition with the devs. But your rom is the best in my opinion. I have yet to run a single rom as long as I have been running MikFroyo.

I would not go with 2.2.2. Check out the link from my signature below and get the test 003 version of 2.3 (it says test, but works like a champ for everyone who has tried it so far!) Place the zip file on your sd card root and flash just like you were flashing a new ROM! (Wipe caches first).

Is there a way too pull the bottom dock from the regular 4.4 rom? I want to use it for launcher pro. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Don't know if this problem was posted so I apologize in advance if it was.

Flashed the rom and loving it. However, when listening to music and the lockscreen comes up, the album art does not show. Has anyone seen this and if so is there a fix?

So I've been reading all this stuff about amon_ra vs clockworkmod and from what I can tell there really isn't that much difference. I know at first amon_ra was the only one that backed up wimax but now clockworkmod does it too. I keep reading that amon_ra wipes better but I've been using clockwork since I rooted my phone and I've never had any issues flashing things. As far as backing up or restoring I've never had any issues like amon 2.2.1 did (I know, I know just wipe cache and davlik and it works okay). I know it's not difficult to flash it to flash to amon to try it out I'm just trying to get your opinion about why it's superior.

Find any of JKLong's posts (trust me, there are a TON in here), and he's got a link in his sig.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jklong03:
WARNING: The following rant is purely "personal opinion" and doesn't represent the views of aamikam or any of his other followers:

I think it is superior because like aamikam...Amon_RA is very responsive to issues (and the guy doesn't even own an EVO) and although there was the small glitch with needing to wipe caches on the 2.2.X series, that is gone with 2.3 test 003 (link is in my signature). He is just a guy who seems to take great pride in his products, doesn't seem to make any major mistakes in what he does...is willing to listen/incorporate design and implementation suggestions from users....just all around a more pleasant experince IMHO. He is already looking at changing his recovery kernel to use the sd card "kb_lookahead" fix to see if that speeds up restores...

I too had clockwork after I first rooted my EVO last year using Unrevoked. However, coming from as far back as the Cyanogen ROM for G-1's, I missed Amon_RA and went to it shortly after unlocking. And I am glad I did, because unlike others who upgraded radios/pri's etc when the new 3.70 OTA hit the streets, those of us using Amon_RA didn't have the problems Clockwork users did.

Sorry to take up so much space in aamikam's thread with this ramble...but I think he would agree to support devs who are responsive and care about their user's experience as much as Amopn_RA does (and while he is good, he is no Miko by the way!:D)

"My name is Jeff, and I approve (but didn't have to pay for!) this message...."

[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Something odd is going on.

1) Whenever I plug my phone into my computer with the usb cord, it is automatically mounting as "Disk Drive" even though my Default Connection Type is "Charge Only" and Ask me is checked. This has been happening for 2 days now.

2) Random files on my SDCard have deleted themselves. Lost all of my videos except one and 1/2 of my Removed_Wallpapers. This just happened.

Odd.

Ideas?

I also used clockwork recovery and never had any problems with it..kept hearing now ra recovery was better so I finally tried it out (v1.8.0) a little while back. the first thing I noticed with the lack of all the folders from my SD card (v1.8.0) which I actually prefer ...because I have a lot of stuff I flash for my sd card..so if I want to go to the top of my zips/roms/mods I would to have to go from the bottom up...or down through all of the billion file folders to get to the top : / so then I tried 2.1/2.2 and had nothing but problems so now I'm back on 1 8 0 :-D
[EVO 4G Android Development] jklong03:
Not going to touch that one mitch!!

However, I find Koni Minimalist to be very "clean" and uncluttered...kinda what attracted me to the original "Re-engineered" series of stock roms.

Plus, the Clock font is just "cool" if you ask me and I like the "minimal" notification icons!!

So whats the diff between the "normal" version and "engraved"?
[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
Nope. That's a limitation of CDMA. No Sprint of Verizon phones can. You can on wifi or 4G, but not 3G.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jklong03:
:DYes, I would completely wipe my sd card...(don't bother backing it up first)..wiping all data...download a fresh copy of the ROM, your Recovery, your WiMax Keys, your bootloader and reflash all of them...and then post a reply to this because you did what I suggested...what the hell do I know??:):););)

But seriously Mitch...this may well be at least a "wipe cache/dalvik-cache" time and as hard as it may be to think of....perhaps a "wipe data..factory reset" (Oh no he didn't say that...did he?")

And of course, I am sure you have mounted your sd card to your computer and done a Dos repair on it already? (did you reboot after the files disappeared and look at the "Lost Files/Folders" directory on your FAT32?)
[EVO 4G Android Development] live2ride96:
I've been using Amon Ra since my Nexus, and have had no problems. That's why I use it. Never had a reason to change. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I'll take reliability when it comes to my recovery.

Mitch - I am wondering if maybe its the Ziggy BFS kernal? My phone has beenacting kinda strange today as well, and I noticed the connection message last night while my phone was plugged in. It popped up like 4-5 times within 3 minutes.

The other thing I have noticed today, coming outta sleep, the phone kinda seemed to stumble for about 30 seconds where it seemed like it was locked up, but then recovered. I thought maybe the smartass was set to low and my phone didn't like 245 anymore, so I raised it up a notch, but noticed it later on in the day as well. And least but not last, I was on a call with my wife a little while ago, went to hang up, and my screen wouldn't come back on, none of the buttons worked, yet I could still hear her talking. Had to pull the battery to get the screen to come back on.

I know I have read several posts on Ziggy's ROM's and it seems they are hit or miss with certain EVO's. Gonna reflash the kernal and give it another shot. Maybe something went amiss, even though I don't know how...
[EVO 4G Android Development] aamikam:
Its done by me... I took it out so its not a bug... I will need to make u a a mode that will bring it back if u want... but that will take me sometime to do cuz I'm busy with other things.

It actuality says it in the changelog btw.
[EVO 4G Android Development] 1BadHEMI:
Let's talk ext3

Okay, this is running through my head, and was just wondering...

ext3 partition sizing. Why do you recommend 512mb? Why not 1GB or 2GB if you have a large sdcard?

Any drawbacks going with a larger size partition?

And 1 last thing for those of us running Apps2sd, when making recovery's, should we backup the SD:EXT paratition?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jstn76rs:
Not sure of there is a fix but its that way by default. This is one of the many reasons why I like this ROM and the need to check this thread every 15min.

Ok, I'll bite here....2 questions:

1)By "armons" are you really meaning "Amon_RA", if not, where is this "armons" recovery located??

2)If you meant Amon_RA...what version are you using and..how the heck are you able to rename backups before you do them??

[EVO 4G Android Development] Kudzus:
First, I want to thank Mik for producing a great rom. I’ve been lurking here for a few weeks reading ever post I could. I have to say the members here are the BEST!

I install the rom and set up a2sd on the stock sd card ( labeled as a class 4 ) it writes as a 2 but, reads as a 9. Strange, but I left it running because it seems to work. Installed all my apps, then installed Ziggy’s ztest-EVO-BFS-011511. Now the good part, installed Quadrant. No over clocking or anything

First Pass … 1321 Second Pass … 1419

Thanks to this rom and all the helpful people in here.

Bty, I ordered a 16g class 10 today

[EVO 4G Android Development] 1BadHEMI:
Have you been talking to my wife also? :D Yeah it was pretty strange. It happened once last night after flashing the Ziggy BFS kernal, but that was on the 1st boot, the phone just happen to ring before I could reboot it. She's just pissed that she is stuck with AT&T for another year and a half cause she HAD to have a iTurd 4, and now she likes my MikEVO better :p

Possiblity! I just reflashed the kernal. 1st boot was kinda funny though as Sense kept trying to sync something, the phone was VERY laggy. Once I was able to get in, I ran Terminal to make sure Apps2sd was still happy, which it was, rebooted, and all is fine now. I hate the way BFS kernal's are when they are 1st installed. Anyhow, made a few phone calls and it didn't lock up like before. Come to think about it, I don't remember clearing the cache nor the Dalvik after I reinstalled 4.4 last night. Maybe that had something to do with. But I did get the connection messages last night though, and I have never had that happen before...

Might wanna try reflashing the kernal to see if it clears up?

Ok,

My phone is crazy. It begins to heat up every single time that I plug it in to charge. USB/ac doesn't matter. mA output of charger doesn't matter. Kernel doesn't matter. Apps running doesn't matter.

Spare parts reports nothing

OS monitor reports nothing

System panel reports nothing

Watchdog reports nothing

At some point today it reached 108 degrees ... this is ridiculous.

I've been plugging and unplugging all day trying to single something out

Luckily this method of testing has been bump charging me too ;-)

So I'm sitting at 38% trying to charge it up so I can re-do everything and start afresh. I'm just gonna wipe everything and partition my card and then we'll see....

Any suggestions while I'm waiting to be charged? ?

Did you previously run an SBC kernel? That may be giving your trouble. Reflash your recovery and wipe battery stats and switch to non-usb kernel.

Just flashed the new Ziggy CFS HAVS rom. Seems just as snappy as the previous BFS kernal. Gotta dig more into though to see if the wake locks are still happening.

Ran a quick Linpack test and scored 36MFLOPS, and Quandrant scored a 1490 on the 1st run for what its worth...

With this new rom, reading the post Ziggy made, do we have to setup the VDD? I was a little confused with that? Of course that doesn't take much :p

Ziggy Kernels

Sorry I had to get in on this. It seems to me after LOTS of testing different roms that build 3.70 does not like BFS kernels. I have tried many different BFS kernels on many different roms and it seems something always happened from screen lag with temporary lockup to a partial reboot with flickering white screen to a complete reboot. I never use BFS anymore and really on MikFroyo there is no need to. I did have a problem with the last two ziggy releases with random reboots. That would be CFS 010211 and 011511. So you guys are not crazy just ziggy is not ready for Mikfroyo, its too bad ass for his kernels.

:cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] a senile fungus:

Funny thing is, I was running Nets 3.2.1 BFS HAVS noSBC before and NEVER had a issue with stuttering or lockups...

The only kernel thus far that has taken all the abuse I can give it is 2.6.32.25-netarchy-toastmod-4.2.1-cfs-bfq-havs-less-smartass. I also think I have tested my phone to half life because I have another tester like myself who says he can overclock to 1.228 but I get reboots everytime I try. But I can also say that in my testing with all kernels that overclocking is inconsistantly fast past 1.1152ghz. Again just my own results. With all the new Evo versions out everyone will have different results. I have a #0002 and my wife who refuses to let me root hers has a #0004. If she ever lets me root it I will have a wider range of results. But thats all can give you for now.

@Mitch

Trying to revert a2sd back to stock settings. I don't have my card partitioned. All that i have is dalvik to cache.

I've run a2sd check

It says that dalvik is symlinked to cache

So I run a2sd nocache and it rebooted

But dalvik is still symlinked to cache...

I'm thinking a2sd, or my lack of understanding of it, may be my issue

I'll probably end up wiping and reflashing all tonight. But I'm still trying to troubleshoot
