I'll hop on the bug finding wagon as soon as I get home from work tomorrow and post up after some testing.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sdc177:
Fantastic! My favorite dev from the EVO side! Mikfroyo 4.5 is the best EVO ROM by far and I can't wait til you get something similar running on the Shift!
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] luckylui:
I be damn mik on the mikshift.. you guys are in for an AWSOME RIDE!!!! Best Evo rom out mikfroyo 4.5, and this one will be too! Have fun everyone. :-D
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] yokken:
Oh my god, best day ever. MikFroyo on the Shift. Loved it on the Evo, it will definitely definitely be my main ROM once these few bugs are sorted out. I love you aamikam!!!
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] cachorropedorro:
It's such a blessing to see devs work so hard on ROMS so that others can enjoy their phones even more. :-) Thanks man.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] aamikam:
guys... as far is i understand the settings is the issue so far.

please try this zip and let me know if it will fix your settings issue.

thanks.

p.s.

make sure u wipe dalvik and cahce.

if there are more issue that you guys have seen and/or this zip wont work... please let me know.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] mcarrion78:
downloading now. it is nice to see some more dev showing love for the shift. will be reporting back any bugs
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jesusice:
Cool. Can't try it now but will later. Sorry couldn't give more feedback before but I get no data reception in my mancave w/o wifi and couldn't turn it on without Settings so didn't spend long with it. It did boot up fine though and seemed to work fine including the camera.

still seems to be a no go on the settings
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] aamikam:
guys.... keep in mind here that once i have a fully working version i will optimize it even more... i just touched the basics... not all that can be done has been done here.

as for tweaks and themes... that will come in the picture later on also.

the plan is to have a solid base optimized to the max... and then u guys will get separate zips to flash mod/theme/tweak of choice using an app that will be built in to the phone... or through a website.

but the app is still in the works.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] aamikam:
anychance u can get me a logcat?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] mcarrion78:
flashed the settings zip twice and still a no go. pm me if you need help with any further testing. im off today so i can sit and test all day
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] mcarrion78:
yeah give me a sec. what are the commands to pull the logcat again. ill pastebin it
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] mcarrion78:
you want a recovery logcat?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] aamikam:
well...

its best if u can give me a logcat from the point the phone starts until u hit the settings button and its not working.

so...

adb logcat>filename.txt

and u hit ctrl-c to stop it.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] pwrmedia:
+1.

The MMS settings were either wiped out w/ a tweak flash, or weren't included. When I went into connection settings, everything was blank.

I'm currently looking into manually entering the info and will report back if it works.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] cafecivet:
I followed these steps exactly. I even formatted system. In order, wipe data, wipe cache, format system, davlik. I also formated my sd card before loading the zip files in case it was something there. If I've missed anything, please let me know.

I still get a FC error on Swype(both the APK posted and from my Beta Email download link) and Mint from the market. I'm starting to wonder if it's my phone, but I can use these on other ROM's.

I'm starting to wonder if it's something unique to some Shifts as some other people have seen FC's with other apps as well. It's frustrating because this really is the fastest ROM out there for the Shift. I've tried them all.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] sarspants:
Fantastic ROM! Aside from the obvious improvements, GPS is 100x better for me. I got a lock within 3 seconds in my basement vs 30-60 seconds outside. Thanks!!!!
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] dumper1234:
Please help. I installed all rom ok, except the animantions. Tried to flash them, but all of them said aborted. Am I missing somethings here? Please advice
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] e240:
Use an app called metamorph from the market. And if u look a couple pages back, he posted a link with instructions on how to use it

Uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't help.

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] dumper1234:
my mms works fine, everything works...great rom.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] fabier:
Thanks!!

Haven't tested MMS yet, but FABULOUS ROM!!

So Clean, So Fast..... I love it! Just customized the hell out of my phone this morning and it would be running like molasses in winter if I had been on the stock rom. Instead, snappy as ever!

Keep up the great work! I'll definitely be checking back for more from you :).

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] BrandoKC:
Nandroid, flash stock ROM, install newested version of Swype, back up Swype with TB.

Nandroid restore Mikshift, then restore Swype from TB.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] AGiLiT:
Confirm FC for Mint. Also: OpenTable, TVListings, AndExplorer. The latter I can do without; there are other file managers. I just like the way it can find media.

Edit: Just tried nfinite's 2.0 Stock odex ROM; these things work there.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] aamikam:
i need someone to test out something for me real quick... i need to ask all u guys sorry... i think the v1.0 i uploaded is the wrong one... i feel so stupid.

anyways... please if any one wanna test it out for me real quick before change it up... pm me.

thanks.

edit:

i normally wouldn't ask btw... but as of yesterday... i dont own an evo shift anymore.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bigbad614:
I'll test it.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] strapped365:
okay so i flashed it but i got the white htc screen for a few mins im gonna wipe and reflash once again to make sure it went right i woke up outta bed to test lol

Downloading now over 4g will report back I'm a min
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] geekdaddy:
I'll try it. Generally very happy with this ROM and exceptionally snappy but FCing on xfinity, SMS backup, and others. Also getting some strange "radio resource" errors in SMS although it seems to work ok.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] finalhit:
sorry if this was answered before...but do i need to do a full wipe to install this rom (currently on stock/rooted/bcnice's 1.8 kernel)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] JKILO:
Yes

Sent from HTC Knight using MikShift..because CM7 got overrated like CWM
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] yokken:
used my gps for turn-by-turn a lot yesterday, and my phone dropped the GPS signal multiple times over the course of the day, in the middle of navigation. good thing i knew where to go from there... what the hell? this never happened before, but it happened every time i used navigation yesterday.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] JKILO:
Were you using an oc kernel?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jchappies:
Did you find out if there was an issue with this ROM
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] yokken:
yeah, using the x99 kernel. maybe i'll switch to the standard bcnice kernel and see if it works then.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] david7586:
i switched over to the nfx odex rom to compare apps that consistently FC on me after data wipes, reboots, etc and I've noticed I havent been having any problems. I wish i had a more scientific process, but currently i'm led to believe there are some inherent issues in the MikShift rom. I can also test your updated rom if you'd like.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] geekdaddy:
Ditto -- I really like how this ROM looks and performs but there are several apps that FC on it. Hoping there will be an update soon...
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] cafecivet:
I can confirm the same thing. The apps I had fcing (Swype, Mint, and 3CX IP Phone) on this ROM do not on the NFX Odex ROM. I can certainly tell a speed difference though.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] AGiLiT:
Google NAV or Sprint (Tele)NAV? I always had a bear of a time with the latter on my Hero. Even on stock, I found TeleNAV would get FUBARed on its directions. I would get prompts for turns that I already passed, and even if they were in sync, they never came anywhere near where the turn was actually taking place.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] EricSS619:
Not sure why, but i havent had any problems with the rom.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] JKILO:
I had huge problems with that kernel and gps on Saturday with a 5hr drive lol but yea positive its the kernel
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] JKILO:
And for everyone having a f/c on these apps is it on the 1.0 with green theme or without
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] ahager88:
I don't have ANY force closes with Green Theme. Been running since it dropped.

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] eigerzoom:
i have not been able to get a lock with gps since installing this rom from beta and the bcnice kernel...

i didn't catch this until recently unfortunately

but am certain it hasn't worked since beta/bcnice

most recent flash of the new release i installed the kernel immediately in recovery without booting the new rom first...

not sure if this is part of the problem

thanks for any help clearing up this issue

I always have until I started shifting. Never even tried the installer.

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] SHMaRiM:
Is it possible to have the widget resize feature built into this ROM or is there an app for that? I don't want to run a launcher over the top of sense since the sense widgets aren't available then.

BTW running the 1.8ghz BFQ kernel with no FC's so far but it honestly is slower than the stock ROM??? My quadrant scores are about 200 points lower than before this ROM. However, still snappy so I don't really mind.

Some requests I have are:

*Extended Setting w/ changeable # of rows and columns, as well as changeable # of home screens

*Long press widget resizing feature (so you can position certain widgets just right and change their default size)

*Remove clock from status bar .zip

*More optimization to make faster... ;)
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] EricSS619:
All i got to say is try the kernal that comes with the rom. It is all you need in my opinion, not sure why you would ever need to change it.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] finalhit:
anyone else having problems with the "settings" (forgot the exact name) process force quitting?

whenever i toggle bluetooth or the gps, randomly, but often...it force quits. i don't know if it has anything to do with the fact that i'm using widgetzoid...although it did the same thing when google nav prompted me to enable the gps (which i did), and it force quits.

the OS remained stable, except one time when the OS bogged down to a crawl. i was able to do a proper shut-down, but it was weird.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] karnoff:
seriously how much fast do you want to get? This is easily the fasted rom available for our phone. I'm sure if Mik could make it faster, he would have already done it.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] SHMaRiM:
I honestly feel like this ROM is not nearly as fast as the stock one... Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I'm getting lower benchmark scores. It feels fast but quadrant benchmark software tends to disagree...

Still my favorite ROM however...

Anyone have any insight into making a theme for this ROM? Can I just take the Green Theme and winzip my way into the .apk's and change the pictures with same format, size, and filename?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] aamikam:
u gave me some ideas here... but some of the things u asking would require me to be the maker of the ui itself.

as for benchmark results... i never take it seriously... bottom line is... does the phone perform faster (opening tasks, etc.)... does cpu work less, is there more free ram.

i think using my rom u will see that the answer to those 3 questions will be yes.

i did make a tiny mistake with v1.0... but that will be fixed in v1.01 or 1.1 that should be out probably tomorrow.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] SHMaRiM:
Those are just ideas... Figure I can contribute some way since I don't know how to make a ROM myself.

And like I said, the phone is snappy as F***, the benchmark results are just lower. Maybe I shouldn't take them too seriously.

I love the ROM so far though and got plenty of ideas for modification.

Question... Will there be a way to flash v1.01/1.1 and maintain all of my application and stuff?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jchappies:
GPS lost signal today after about 5-10 min of use. I'm OC to 1.1mhz and battery temps went to 109*, Don't know if its the ROM or OC or a combination of the two. Never locked back up and i shut it off after ten min.

Hope the new version can fix this

I turned the clock down to 1.0mhz to see if this will help.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bobtsunam:
I'd like to second the motion for a zip to remove the clock from the status bar. Trying to do it myself at this point with no programming experience.

<Blaze One>
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] aamikam:
ok... here is the thing... i dont make zips the alter the odex file... i change it myself...

since i dont have the phone any more it will be hard to do... cuz i need the phone to do it... kinda.

i will see if i can work with someone to give u guys a mod like that.

but, the q is...

what other thing should stay with that mod... cuz the file that will change... has more than just the clock removal edits in it.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] yokken:
You should always take benchmark scores with a grain of salt. Just because a score is higher doesn't mean it will perform any better in the real world.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] finalhit:
Are any of the mods for this rom compatible with stock? Namely, the tether hack?

i dont need a signature
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bobtsunam:
Thought about that after I posted. Prolly easier to just build it in. I just want the clock gone since I have widgets and the one in the status bar is just taking up space. I'm gonna dig into tonight and see if I can figure out how to do it myself.

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] SHMaRiM:
I'd say keep the other normal stuff. Maybe have an option for battery removal aswell since plenty of other people use a widget for battery life (however I wont use that). I just don't really need the clock.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] popasmurfn23:
I thought mikeshift said it didn't matter if you have the phone are not to cook up a rom because all the android was the same or something like that?

Nevermind i just read more of the thread 'poking my turtle head back into shell'
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] bckoolaid:
are there any mirrors available for this rom? Trying to download from the OP but the site seems to be down.

EDIT: Site is working again.

If you're using mikshift it'll flash over fine with no problems..id wipe dalvik cache just to be safe but that's up to you..btw its an amazing theme
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] JKILO:
Also I've been beta testing 1.1..as far as I know its pretty much ready..I'm working with mik to try and find what's causing swype and other apps to force close..I should have a solution within the next 24hrs..if not I'm sorry..but the f/c issue is the only thing I have to work on since I have a 24hr shift lol imo I'm pretty close to having it figured out
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] NYCHitman1:
I put the Honeycomb Blues theme w/ Mik's ROM on my wife's Shift which I just finished rooting yesterday evening. I actually like that theme a lot. The boot animation is awesome.

Assuming 1.1 gets the bug fix for f/c instead of making it a flashable fix then thatll be included as well as dsp manager is installed..some apps have been updated to newest version and a couple more optimizations as far as space is concerned..aamikam does alot of work and its impressive how hes doing this without a shift :) the thanks is all his

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] popasmurfn23:
You can stay on stock and do a nandoid backup and then just grab those files from the OP to enable the XotXpot Xack and flash that file or if you got a perm u kan just DL wireless tehter from market and allow SU permission and wallah.
