[EVO 4G Android Development] fixxxer2008:
as i said i fully wiped today and flashed the rom bare and still thought i had issues, apparently i was looking at the uptime instead of awake time, but this rom doesn't give an option to show that. i do know the battery life is less than desirable.
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
Have you wiped battery stats? Are you basing your battery observations off one day, or have you been running the rom for days and you still are not getting desirable battery life? If you're judging on first boot, then I'm not surprised, because you've wiped the battery stats. If you've gone through 2 or 3 full charge cycles and you're still not getting good battery life check battery history for running processes. See if anything sticks out there. If not, try a different kernel, maybe you'll have better luck with say cyanogens stock kernel. Also, as suggested, you can change governors or lower your clock speed to get even more juice out of a battery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
I think we should switch to mdpi layouts instead of hdpi, maybe the hdpi is making things load longer and causing bad battery life. =P
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
I'm lost.
[EVO 4G Android Development] locoboi187:
Eager for a new final release
[EVO 4G Android Development] thegregbradley:
Me too! The nightlies are super stable. Hopefully they wait and upgrade to 2.3.4 first though :-) I'm eager for that gtalk video chat.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ncfastls1:
Is there any way to disable the screen orientation change when your on any of the home screens?
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
If you're on 1.2.1 no, I don't believe we had implemented that yet. The nightlies do, however, and 1.3 will have ths option.
[EVO 4G Android Development] empiire:
What's the wallpaper used on the screenshots of the Evo on your website (leaves, sun, & tree)? I can't find it anywhere and that wallpaper looks amazing in my opinion, so if you could point me in right way I'd be more than happy. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
Is it not in the wallpaper section of your device (Salvage Wallpaper)?
[EVO 4G Android Development] eniamg02:
Anyone try toasts kernel on this rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:
I'm on it right now. I haven't done much messing around with it yet, since I flashed it. But so far it seems fine, things are smooth. It'll take me a couple days to see how it acts. I'm on nightly 17 btw.
[EVO 4G Android Development] empiire:
Hah, blonde moment... thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darkmx2000:
I thought the Toasty Kernels were Sense kernels not AOSP?
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:
Nope, other way around. Toastcfh has been the primary one behind the CM kernels all along. AOSP is his gig I believe.
[EVO 4G Android Development] eniamg02:
Cool I've been on itas well v4 everything seems very smooth, liking this kernel alot.
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
Toast on #19 is pretty good. Just prefer Tiamat SBC (I'll be that guy).

Anyway, that Talkback keyboard is weird/useful/interesting. Not sure how to explain it. Has that been in this ROM forever? It is definitely fun? to learn
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
Yes it is included in gapps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sag7392:
I'm just about finished setting up this ROM, all I can say is HOLY SH*T!!!! Now I have been ROM hopping a lot lately and I've come across some good ROMs...but this one is well built and so far is smooth and very fast. Damn!

I'm running SZ 2.1.0 CFS and was curious if the Toast's kernels worked well with this ROM...a page back someone stated that he made AOSP kernels and the one he/she is running was good.

Been awhile barnacles10....
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
I have not tried it. Though it should would fine. Toasts kernels are all aosp based and this is an aosp rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
that kernel was good. I seem to get similar performance with better battery out of tiamat though. Still using 3.3.7, have not tried the 4.0.0 yet
[EVO 4G Android Development] sag7392:
Question- On CM7 RC2, I was able to configure my LED notifications through profiles. Is there a way to do that or is it built in? If so, where? Believe me, I've searched and haven't managed to locate it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Marlowr05:
how is this rom different from CM7 RC2?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sry0fcr:
I'm guessing that 1.3 is right around the corner? :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
This is currently not a feature of SalvageMod

Gettin there. =P
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
most notably for me, I beat the hell out of my phone on weekends travelling a lot, especially bouncing from gps and maps to texting to phone calls, so basically my screen is never off and I switch apps very quickly and use almost every feature. for me, the main difference is speed and reliability. Many of the hickups I experienced with CM7rc2 were resolved or just aren't present in SalvageMod. I would kill the CM7 battery in about four hours, here I have no problems going 14 hours heavy use. The force closes and random reboots I experienced aren't here either.

Visually a couple things, no adw, and quite a few settings are different, but I don't care about that, I look for reliability, which is why I'm here
[EVO 4G Android Development] sag7392:
Can you recommend a good notification app that works well with this ROM? I use GO SMS and I have never seen the built in led notification work. Nor does WiMax notifier. I just want basic email/missed call/sms/calender alerts.

And by the way, your ROM is the shiznit!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] epmacman:
okay, I must be doing something wrong. I've been on this rom in the past but left due to some flakly gps issues, but I dled the lasted autocomplied build and the stable 1.2.1 and both are boot looping right after install.

I boot to recovery, wipe data/cache(x2)/dalvik-cache(x2)/batt statt/rotation sett/

flash 1.2.1(or build 20) it completes then shows the sprint boot logo once then "salvagemod" flashes and then disappears.

using Build RA-evo-v1.8.0 recovery

Please help :confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jbcarrera:
sounds like a possible bad download try to download again and then reflash I'm using the same recovery and have no issues flashing this rom but i do flash calk's format all as well
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
I would also try updating your recovery to 2.3 amon
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
so did the upgrade to amon 2.3 work?
[EVO 4G Android Development] epmacman:
no, I updated to 2.3 , wiped everything I listed above, flashed it, this time it seemed to stay at the initial salvage mod loading bar longer, but then it just kept looping. I will try to redownload it but, It seems unlikely that both build I dled were corrupt. Thanks for the help though :) I will post after I have attempted again tonight.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thegregbradley:
GO SMS works for me with the built in LED notification. SMS notifications come through the WIMAX LED. I'm on hardware 0003, which hardware are you on?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
If the version you downloaded contains the Tiamat 3.3.8 kernel, try flashing the 3.3.7 kernel instead and see if that helps. If that doesn't help, try flashing the leaked radio.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Sry0fcr:
Wipe system too. It helped with a similar issue I was having.
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
+1, when in doubt, wipe system through AMON.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chrisfales:
Latest nightly 20 is running great so far! Thx
[EVO 4G Android Development] malibu_23:
any1 having issue where 4g signal strength isnt reflected? i get the icon, but i get no 4g bars reflected of it
[EVO 4G Android Development] eniamg02:
Any chance smartass governor will be in next updates kernel?
[EVO 4G Android Development] chrisfales:
Any good themes for this bad boy? Can't seem to find one
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jbcarrera:
Afaik matted blues is the only one

Sent from my salvaged from sense EVO
[EVO 4G Android Development] cds36:
So if there anything new with nightly 20 ? I'm on 17 and its going good not sure if I should give 20 a shot
[EVO 4G Android Development] chrisfales:
I tried 17 as well and liked it. Had no issues with that one either. I just like to flash the latest when possible. Using SZ2.1 kernel with 20 right now and seems great. But not sure if I notice any huge difference between the two.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
You won't see any difference right now. We are currently working on 2.3.4 merge right now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SoFLO.:
Looking forward to 2.3.4
[EVO 4G Android Development] chrisfales:
SWEEEEETTTTTT!!!!!!!! Bring it b*tches!!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] chrisfales:
Edit: FIXED

So just realized after flashing #20 that my sdcard says not mounted or like it's not there. Ideas before I start drastic measures? thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] thegregbradley:
SICK. Excited! Just tried the new g-talk app tonight, didn't work. Hopefully it's a 2.3.4 thing!
[EVO 4G Android Development] sag7392:
I'm on the same version...it has never worked for me, but I'll give it another shot. You have the native notification disabled correct?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ncfastls1:
I noticed the same thing when I was on 1.2.1. 4g would show up but it wouldn't reflect the actual signal
[EVO 4G Android Development] thegregbradley:
Correct. The way GoSMS organizes their settings is a few too many clicks, but there's a setting for "blink LED" under GO sms settings/notification settings/default notification settings/blink LED. It's rather buried in there, but make sure that's selected. My native notification is disabled, and when I get a text it blinks the WiMAX LED.

I also have popup window notifications enabled (basically the only reason I use GoSMS), not sure if that has anything to do with it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sag7392:
Yeah, I've had the setting set since the beginning and it has never worked for me. I also have the pop-up feature enabled as well, and still never worked....the pop-up did, just not the LED notification. I'm just out of luck for now...I don't know.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chrisfales:
#20 is running like a dream for me with the sz2.1 kernel on 004. Any difference between #20 and #21? Thanks for putting this one together and looking forward to the 2.3.4 release!
[EVO 4G Android Development] locoboi187:
4G doesnt work with BeeJiveIM
[EVO 4G Android Development] dougjamal:
When I initially start 4G, I get the icon without the coloring and then moments later, the 4G icon turns green and displaying full strength. A few minutes after that, the signal bars fluctuate accordingly.

[EVO 4G Android Development] router54g:
Two issues I'm getting with 1.2.1 on my Evo 4G. Latest radio, flashed from latest ClockworkMod Recovery:

- SD card intermittently fails to recognize. Not mount. The ROM will completely fail to recognize it's even there. I end up having to reboot a dozen times before it finally takes. It's completely random, and I'm not having the issue with any other ROM. Happens both with your kernel, and with Savaged-Zen 2.1.0 BFS.

- Not your fault, but if anyone could get me a fix it would be great. Apps fail to scale to screen size. On CM7 and Savaged-Zen ROM, I can change my LCD density via build.prop and apps like Google Sky Map will automatically scale themselves up to the screen size. On this ROM, they show up smaller, not taking up the whole screen. A huge annoyance, even more annoying than the massively large elements of the default LCD density. Definitely a deal-breaker to have to choose between huge buttons, or a tiny viewport on half my apps.

Having problems with the latest CM7 and this ROM seems to run a bit faster for me anyway. Would definitely like to solve these problems and go ahead and switch over.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thegregbradley:
Damn. At the risk of sounding incredibly obvious, it sounds like your WiMAX notification LED simply isn't working altogether. Worst case is it's a hardware problem, but perhaps it's simpler than that. I suggest these steps, in order of simplest to most complex/annoying, forgive me if these seem obvious:

1. Clear cache/dalvik, and uninstall WiMAX notifier. Uninstall/reinstall GoSMS and see if it works

2. If not, try a different kernel. Or simply re-download (on your computer, to make sure that the download isn't corrupted) and re-flash the kernel you have if you're not on stock. I'm on Tiamat 4.0.1, working wonderfully. But as always, not all phones work with all kernels.

3. Re-download and re-flash SalvageMod. Again make sure to download via computer to assure a non-corrupt download. No need to wipe, just flash over. Possibly flash g-apps as well since so many of them access the notification stuff. I'm running nightly 17 and everything works, you may want to try a nightly since you're flashing anyway and it's fun.

4. Worst case: full wipe & reflash :( But if that's the case, may as well wait till 1.3 official comes out so you can start fresh with a new version.

I hope you can get this working! Surely someone on here has better advice than I if these steps don't work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thegregbradley:
Anyone gotten the new video g-talk to work fully on salvage? I can see/hear the person on the computer side, but they can only see me, no audio. I tried tiamat 4.0.1, tiamat 3.3.8, and godmode kernels, no dice.
[EVO 4G Android Development] router54g:
Solved. It seems the first issue was caused by Clockwork not fully wiping my system. The second issue was fixed by disabling compatibility mode.

Seems to be working flawlessly now. Will report back if SD card problem reappears. Got my fingers crossed though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mindspin_311:
So Google Maps is currently running, and every time I kill it, it comes back.

What's going on here? It seems like it is keeping my phone awake the whole time rather than letting it sleep.

Why is Maps continuously running?
[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:
Do you have stats that shows its keeping it awake? Maps seems to reboot itself and footprint in the bg, on any rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Mindspin_311:
Seems to have resolved itself. Although, Maps is still there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] sag7392:
You're correct on me flashing ROMs all the time. So I have seen it work on the latest ROMs I switched from- Destroyer V2 (CM7 based) and VaelPak 3.2 (Sense based with ASOP elements and still on my SD as a nand). This was using WiMax notifier on VaelPak and the default CM profiles on Destroyer...which took me some playing with to get it working. So I know my LED is working...I can nand back to VaelPak and it works. Also, I have used only SZ kernels with CM ROMs and Net's with Sense-based Roms.

I've done just about all you suggested and still no dice...this was prior to reading your response. I've made a few changes that will work until 1.3 drops. But believe me, I've tried everything I could think of...hell, Vael's ROM has the camera flash, in addition to the LED as a notifier! Freaking sick!

I'll be patient and just hope for the best...this ROM is awesome, fast, smooth, and I get outstanding battery life...not leaving for awhile...at least for now ;).
[EVO 4G Android Development] thegregbradley:
@sag7392 -- I hear ya. I guess what I would try when 1.3 drops is doing the full wipe, then it *should* work as it seems that we have similar Evos. I was reading up at the top of this page and someone jogged my memory regarding Clockwork, are you using clockwork recovery? I use the latest Amon Ra and it seems to work better regarding the wiping process. Also when switching roms, even going AOSP to AOSP, I always do the Calkulin's full wipe thing. And with Salvage, I made sure to flash the special salvagemod gapps, when trying a "newer" gapps with the new video chat gtalk, I ran into minor issues (but not with the LED notifier)...

If it doesn't work after doing a calkulin's wipe (or better yet, phillysfinest triple calkulin's wipe) using Amon Ra's recovery, then wiping using Amon Ra's wipe functions, THEN flashing a fresh download of 1.3 stable when it drops, I'm out of ideas, haha :D Good luck brother :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] beatstork:
How is battery life compared to cm7?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sag7392:
Yeah, I always do a full wipe using Calk's zip and I do it manually for good measure for every ROM I flash. I also haven't used CW for a long time...I'm on the latest RA right now. Yep, I flashed their gapps as well. I've done everything I could think of...kind of humorous to a certain degree...it's all good though.

Thanks for assisting though!

Edit- I'd be damn...I saw my first WiMax LED light up after a text that wasn't answered...but not after that...I may give another kernel a shot, just to see.
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Thanks for making this amazing rom. The only problem that has obviously been stated before across the gingerbread nation is the gps. For a while, many of these gps features have been a problem on 2.3.3 android platforms. Is there a solution or a work-around to these problems? I'm thinking about ripping the sdk from the android site and just build it for the evo without any inputs and see if the GPS problem persist. I'm wondering about the Nexus / S owners, are they running into the same problem ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
I know for me its great but, im on a extended battery. The best thing to do to get the most performance out of your stock (if you have stock) battery is do the cycles. Make sure you clear all the battery stats within the recovery mode. Once that's all cleared you should test the real performance of your battery. I don't recommend an extended battery; hence it adds unnecessary bulk but, getting another replacement.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cds36:
Just noticed that my led isn't working for SMS or mms messages using go SMS also.

[EVO 4G Android Development] barnacles10:

***Update***

I finally got the WiMax notifier app to work! Here's all I did- I picked up the latest working verison from here post #335....installed it and set what I wanted the LED's to do (blink red and green), turned off the LED notifier in Go SMS, restarted and BOOM it worked. I don't know it if works for Gmail yet, but it does for SMS...which is enough for me. Just wanted to pass this on...

Edit- Just confirmed that Gmail LED notifications, don't work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] NetEndeavors:
All,

I'm running the nightly builds (currently #22) along with Tiamat 4.0.1 (SBC) Kernel and "Updated GAPPS with Google Talk Video (2.3+)" AND "Google Talk w/Video & Voice for 2.3.3 roms CONFIRMED WORKING"

Since Saturday (and a few Nightly builds back), I've been able to send Text Messages but have not been able to receive any.

Does anyone have any thoughts on what I need to tweek, remove, reset or etc. to get inbound Text Messages working again?

Thx in advance,

Dave
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
i had that problem a while back. Wiping the cache and dalvik in recovery worked. It's the obvious one, but I would start there
[EVO 4G Android Development] NetEndeavors:
I ended up going back to a Sense ROM, did a PRL (already had 01115) and Profile update per some google searches and then restored the #22 nightly build along with thier Google apps but not the others and not any kernel update.

Things are working good now... I'll start applying other things doing a backup between each one hoping to get it all restored or figure out which breaks it.

Thanks for the suggestion though!

Dave
[EVO 4G Android Development] cds36:
Hey guys are your led lights working for sms or mms texts ? mine aren't but they do work for emails. Thinking of going back to 1.2.1 as i know they were working then.

wifi is working fine for me..
[EVO 4G Android Development] Frizzanko:
so far, this is my favorite rom out of the gingerbread ones, i like how minimalistic it is, how close to vanilla it is

as long as it stays this way and gets full function, this will remain my main rom. thank you!!

Are you using the SBC-bnice kernel too? Trying that now but seems like i still cannot connect to WiFi.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Visionikz03:
Yes its a lil slow to catch up to changing light but it works... wat i love about gingerbread is the new feature where u tap in the words and it gives u a draggable slider to correct mispelled words rather than having to keep pecking @ the screen to get the cursor in the right position. This will be well worth the wait once it becomes a stable rc. Great job devs!

So after flashing this Rom I was in love.

16hours off charger, 60% battery remaining

CM @35 kernel with SBC for CM

Wifi Working.

After taking screenshots of my success and preparing to upload them, the rom started rebooting every 2 minutes. I have been unable to get it to stop rebooting. So for now I am going to reflash back to Myn's and wait for a more stable release. On the Upside the results I did get were extremely promising. I look forward to the future updates.
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
This was my experience as well. I can also say my battery life was outstanding. Out of nowhere random reboots every few minutes. I wiped and reflashed everything and the problem is gone... for now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dwd3885:
so which is the best of the gingerbread roms so far? It seems that all three have issues with GPS, Wifi and video recording and kinda hit a stand still-at least nothing updated last night. I'm sure when one gets it figured out they all will. But I was just asking. Coming from CM 6.1.1
