[EVO 4G General] starplaya93:
So is it just me or have you guys noticed significantly lower battery life ever since froyo came out a couple months back. I mean it's not terrible, but it's not nearly as good as pre-froyo.

I've tried numerous roms and kernels, did all the bullsht with my battery and what not, and although the results vary and some rom/kernel variations are better than others (The battery calibration never worked for me, i tried both versions and I am fully convinced that it was just used by HTC to get all the complainers off there back. People have supposedly had results from calibrating there batteries but according to the facts of how batteries work, there really isn't a need to calibrate...but thats beside my point lol, just a little rant.)

ANYWAYS, back to what I was saying... I remember when I was on DamageControls 2.1 roms and how freaking awesome my battery life and performance was, but the moment I upgraded to froyo it's just never been the same again....

Am I the only one experiencing this? It could very well be my mind playing tricks on me, but I highly doubt that...

I'm currently on Myns newest rom and I went a day with the stock HTC kernel, but that was pretty bad so I just now flashed Zyg's kernel...

What rom/kernel variations are working the best for you guys. And before you go on giving me sht about "our phones are different so one rom may be better on mine than yours." or whatever, I really don't care.

Just let me know what's been working best for you.
[EVO 4G General] nuggyunlimited:
Have you tried SBC kernels?
[EVO 4G General] _MetalHead_:
Nooo way man, my battery life pretty much doubled since froyo came out. I'm running MIUI and I can seriously go almost 2 days without charging my phone with a stock battery. Even when I was running Fresh I was getting awesome battery life.
[EVO 4G General] starplaya93:
I've tried one SBC kernel a couple weeks ago when i was using Calks rom and I didn't see too great of battery life on that either...

There's probably something that i'm missing, because I have heard of people getting really good battery life. I haven't really messed around with my EVO in a while... I'll try tweaking some things and see how that goes...

Using Clockwork 2.5.1 (?, flashing right now) so I can't check.

Was on MYN RLS4. Flashed the bundled radio zip linked above, now in this situation. Currently, I'm flashing to RLS5 after a ADB push of the zip file. Edit: Was on BS#6 Kernel

If this doesn't work, I'll flash a deodexed stock 3.70.

Any more recommendations?

edit: Looks like I got past the HTC Evo 4G screen, just waiting for the MYN boot animation now.

edit2: I booted up, thanks for the help. At least I can rest knowing that my radio flash wasn't borked.

Ive had the same problem today on two different evos, with two different recoveries! Both times I just booted into recovery and ran a full nandroid backup, then restarted and it stuck in white screen.

First was with amon_ra recovery. I pulled the battery after it stuck on white screen and it rebooted fine.

Second time was with clockwork. I just now pulled the battery and rebooted..... and it looks to be sticking again.

Both are running Fresh Rom. v3.5.01 I think.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spiicytuna:
Do you have the SDK installed and a usb cable? Hook up the evo, then do: "adb logcat", power on, and post the output. Note: it sounds like it is looping so watch carefully and when you see it looping hit "crtl+c" to stop logcat.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evolishesh:
Do this! download this to you sd card http://www.megaupload.com/?d=PXIYUNSY than boot into bottloader, let the phone search for the file update and this should get you up and running. The problem doing what you did is that that works when a different kernel not htc kernel.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gsjr1:
The same thing happened to me and your link worked like a charm. I was just wondering if after I did this would I still be able to try and flash a different rom? or am I stuck with this one? I am just wondering....as you can see Im pretty new to the rooting game.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mizzos4:
Basically, if you update your radios, you have to also update your rom to 3.70 build otherwise the phone won't get pass the bootanimation screen. Normally, you would update the rom then update the radios. Also, to nandroid or flash back to 3.30 build, you have to downgrade the radios back to the version used for 3.30. I was stuck on bootloop with new radios if I flashed any rom below 3.70, but downgrading the radios to previous version allowed for 3.30 nandroid restores.

[Android Software Development] RyanTBDM:
OK, I know rgv151 has his modified MMS app and so does Koush. I'm wondering how hard it would be to add just signature support to the stock MMS app? I hate having to use Handcent or ChompSMS just for signature and I would much rather use the stock app with signature support. I want to build it into my ROM as well. I tried using rgv151's but its outdated and forgotten. Its not compatible with Froyo. Koush's doesn't have signature support. Anyway, I want to modify my stock mms app (from CM source) and add signature support. I hate to sound more like a n00b but, could someone give me tips on how to do this? Or at least point me in the right direction?

I don't know if it helps but currently I'm running:

Motorola Sholes (Droid 1)

CM 6.2 or my ROM RyanTBDMod V0.3 (Heavily based on CM)

help would be greatly appreciated, i tried to be as easy to help as possible
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vandelay007:
You are totally all set to flash almost any evo rom....I never change set cpu.....but if its a concern if yours you can always un-check set at boot...

Once you download the rom.zip you flash it from recovery or directly from rom manager since you are using clockwork mod ...

Let me know if you have any other questions
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigbailey1986:
Let me first say by just looking at your hboot I can tell you to be extra careful... now I don't know exactly what Rom you are looking at cause I didn't follow the link (on phone right now) but I can tell you, your phone has to have a specific kernel and make sure that Rom will work with your phone before flashing without the proper kernel.

In the thread just ask will the kernel that comes with the Rom work with your hboot. Other than that enjoy!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evo4gnw:
wow that was quick.

first off, thank you.

second i was going to flash this EVO-NonSense(UPDATED 12/31)AOSP+Gingerbread Elements,OTA 3.70.651.1

i am going to search the thread shortly for my hboot and see if it has already been addressed, thank so much for the warning that was exactly why posted this thread i really appreciate it.

i just don't know exactly what it is i don't know, i am very new to this.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] craigbailey1986:
Well the flashing of the Rom is the easiest part, the new hboot I think but I may be corrected, has to have the kernel with the new camera chips service jar. I would say always just read the first pg to see if the thread has a faq section. Also you did right by just asking, if you get confused just ask another question. Someone will eventually come along to help! Enjoy the community!

[Droid X General] Qwontum:
Hey all,

I'm new to the XDA forums and was wondering if I could some advice regarding ROM development on the DX. I've done some UNIX kernel work and know a fairly good amount of java as well, so I was thinking about looking into developing a ROM of my own as a side project. Can anyone direct me towards some information regarding the porting requirements needed by the DX, or possibly I could help out on another ROM to get up to speed on the process?
[Droid X General] zehkaiser:
From what I've seen around here all ROMs for the DX are made by stripping the stock ROM of MOTO Blur, and adding a few packages that are custom or AOSP. Also, be prepared for people to tell you what to do... it seems to be the popular thing to do.
[Droid X General] bravo1234:

[Droid X General] drod2169:
My word of advice, since there's a locked bootloader, find every kind of work around you can for performance and battery, otherwise, your rom will be like the rest.

My rom may not come with the best options and all the advanced customizations, but i'll be damned if one outperforms mine in performance :) at least.. on paper and in theory, anyways. :) lmao
[Droid X General] SysAdmin-X:
In addition to what drod said... Hit up @Aliasxerog on Twitter! He is currently looking for help with Linux kernel work. He has been working on a new init for the X to bypass the bootloader issue we have all grown to love! If you could give him some help, I'm sure he, along with the entire Droid X community would be forever in your debt :)

Shoot him a message and see what he has to say...

So I had my phone previously overclocked to 1.9ghz back when it was new and hot stuff but then decided to install bacon bits to get my led notification working. Totally overlooked that the bacon bits would replace my OC with the 1.5ghz... I was ok with it since I just want 1Ghz. Shortly after I realized my wifi tether was not working with baconbits and reverted to my previous backup which is pretty much a stock root.

A bit later I attempted to do the kernel flash again and it just sent me to a boot loop. Reverted back again.

Tried OC Neon got a boot loop...

Reverted.

Tried the flippys new zip...boot loop...

Reverted....

Tried new OC neon...Boot loop...

what the sh!t!

bump for some help?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianmcquinn:
Not sure what is going on here, but how were you overclocked previously? Had you already successfully flashed a custom kernel before or were you running a script. If you were using a script, perhaps it modified a system file that is incompatible with new kernels (causing the boot loop).
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dietotherhythm:
On my successful overclocking, I flashed flippys first 1.9ghz kernel using adb.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianmcquinn:
Well, I'm not sure what could help then. Did you try wiping the cache/dalvik-cache when flashing a new kernel (don't expect it to do anything, but you never know)? Maybe try restoring a backup from before you installed the 1.9GHz kernel just to see if flashing a new kernel works when everything is stock...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianmcquinn:
Oh, just thought of something that maybe should have been obvious (if it is the cause anyway). Are you using a script or app like SetCPU to overclock? The kernels you are trying do not support 1.9 GHz, so trying to set that at boot with them may cause your boot loop. Try setting your max frequency lower (maybe back to 806 MHz to be safe) before flashing a new kernel to see if that fixes thing...
