you can change the governor in the cpu settings. there are threads that explain what the different ones do. i would recommend using the sz or the interactive x for balance of speed and battery life.
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
I'll back that up. Personally I use sz because on interactivex i was getting really high android system usage and spare parts told me it was running 94% of the time. It varies phone to phone though, many have had good results with it.

I have spoken.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Rally187:
Ohh lol right ill try interactive x and monitor it. Thanks guys. Good community love here.

I am not able to get the gps to acquire signal to start navigation... i have download gps status and reset the gps still not working
[EVO 4G Android Development] jta462:
I've never had a GPS issue with any of Savaged-Zen's Rom/Renditions. That said, you may need to start over. Wipe EVERYTHING restore Nothing. Make sure you have 05/17 gapps.
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
I had the same problem; updating to 2.3.4 breaks the "GPS fix" many had to do for CM7. Good news though, by performing the same GPS fix done way-back-when for CM7 it fixed it for me. Just a reminder ...

1) Nandroid current setup

2) Wipe and boot to stock (not port) Sense-based ROM (I used MikFroyo)

3) Get MSL Reader from the market and get your MSL (6-digit number)

4) Dial ##CLRGPSX# and when prompted for your password, input your MSL

5) Reboot your phone (it will prompt you)

6) Once rebooted, open navigation and run Navigation (or you can just open Maps, I just did navigation because I was already out and about) for a good 2 minutes to ensure constant lock

7) Reboot to recovery, wipe, then restore Nandroid

8) Boot to SZ and enjoy that navvy goodness

Its a bit cumbersome, but my GPS works flawlessly now.

Edit: to prevent future "it didn't break it for me" ... it broke it for some (I got the solution from someone else with the same problem).
[EVO 4G Android Development] malden1:
I did all that and it worked for a little but now i always get "searching for GPS" i am using the NAV app but Maps finds me on the map without any problem.
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
The other app that I always couple my GPS stability with is the GPS Status app, available free in the market. Whenever you open it, it redownloads fresh aGPS data, which helps find the signal much quicker.
[EVO 4G Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
So what can I do to get my Evo to connect to 3g? I always have 1x showing. 4g works fine.

This always seems to happen with CM based ROMs. I have tried everything I know... radio and Wimax are updated.
[EVO 4G Android Development] trixr750:
just flashed RC4. its been on the savaged zen monkey screen for a while.....what should i do?!?!
[EVO 4G Android Development] cheflarry:
Just a thought try to go into airplane mode then turn of airplane mode.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cheflarry:
If it is still there now pull the battery then go into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik. Also if u are coming from another rom or rc3 u need to do a full wipe (cache dalvik android secure boot and data)
[EVO 4G Android Development] keebler021:
Keep in mind too that Sense-based ROMs cheat by not showing when you actually go into a 1x area. They always have the 3G icon in the taskbar. AOSP ROMs are more honest about that, which makes it look as though they're in 3G areas less. For what it's worth :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
Yes, but I'm never ever showing 3g no matter where I go. I'm in a Chicago suburb so you'd think the area is 3g. My speeds seem pretty slow. I can connect to 4g fine when I'm in a 4g area.
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
Sorry, I don't normally follow this thread, but I read your posts and thought of something you may want to check for your 1x/3g issues.

Flash back to a sense rom with a working ESPT apk. Open the dialer and enter ##3272# (##data#). Select edit mode (or view mode just to check). Check the following setting: evdo > mode = automatic. If the mode is set to "sprint only", you could be forcing your phone to choose a weaker tower just because its a sprint tower. You can restore back to this rom, that setting should be persistent. Hope this helps, good luck.

[EVO 4G Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
AWESOME! Thank you for the tip. I'll do that now and hopefully have good news to report back.
[EVO 4G Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
By the way, there isn't a way to do the dialing codes on a GB or ASOP ROM?
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lookn4me:
Install issues

No matter what I try, this rom just will not work.... I have wiped a million times, to include cache and devlik, and when it boots every part of the "htc setup" & sense FC's constantly. Any ideas? Otherwise sadly, I will have to try another rom....
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:
I believe those codes will only work through the htc dialer. If flashing back just for checking this setting, I'd suggest using a froyo sense rom just to be safe.

I hope this works for you; its worth a shot anyways. Oh, and you'll need your msl code to enter edit mode. Look for a msl reader app in the market if needed.

Sent on the go, from my evo.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Lookn4me:
any ideas??
[EVO 4G Android Development] jta462:
You shouldn't be having any HTC anything's. Seems like your coming from sense and its not wiping correctly. Only thing I can say is use RA recovery, wipe system and everything else, flash rom n gapps same session, boot. Restore nothing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] twister99403:
just a suggestion but anyone having problems with flashing this rom should use calkulins format all...I had issues until I used that...

http://http//www.mediafire.com/file/4241pf1t7r5u41f/Calkulin__s_FORMAT_ALL.zip
[EVO 4G Android Development] alwaysbelieve1:
It didn't have a Sprint Only setting, but I did have it marked at CDMA only because I remember a long time ago someone said it would get better battery life that way. I don't know... I switched it to Automatic though. I haven't been away from my wifi area yet to check it, but I will let you all know once I do.

I really appreciate your help.

EDIT: OK just left the house and we have 3g!!! YESssss!!! Thank you so much guys. You are AWESOME! :) :) :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] coiledwire:

Hey SZ. Can't wait for the Nexus S 4g versions. I'm dying over here. Ha. I know you guys are on hold, but I believe your Rom/Kernel is gonna spin heads on the NS4G forum. Ill be patiently waiting. . .
[EVO 4G Android Development] noahguz:
Yea you need to make some new versions. I'm getting the nexus for about a month or until the new EVO comes out. So, get on it :)

Does the RC4 ROM work nice with new gb firmwares that htc released a few days ago? i cant get a clean install of the RC4 to get past the zen monkey boot animation.
[EVO 4G Android Development] eazzy28:
How do i properly install the savaged-zen rom? Im stuck at the loading screen. I did a full wipe and I reflashed several times. Any help???
[EVO 4G Android Development] mwielgosz:
Sprint will not allow me to upgrade to to the Evo 3D. Right now, my $75 upgrade will come in for September. Currently, they are running a special where you can get bumped to a full upgrade if your $75 is active. I've tried everyone, attempting to get them to give me the $75 now so I can get bumped to the full upgrade, allowing myself to get the Evo 3D for promotional pricing. Was a long shot that didn't hit.

Anyone who would like to sell an Evo 3D for promotional pricing or would like to donate to my Develop E3D fund, email or click the donate link on my user page.

Thanks!

[EVO 4G Android Development] 18rmiller:
I have no navigation, does it come with this ROM? I have a backup of the navigation app but there is no option to restore it when I go to titanium backup
[EVO 4G Android Development] mwielgosz:
You need to install gapps
[EVO 4G Android Development] 18rmiller:
Just did and it worked. I thought I had already done it. Only problem is that all the gapps are at the end of the apps list instead of in alphabetical order. Any way to fix that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ckeathley:
diales codes

May I please have the dialer codes for this rom. None of the ones I know work. Like ##data# etc. I have even tried *#*#data#*#* Thank you
[EVO 4G Android Development] mwielgosz:
Dialer codes do not work on AOSP ROMs on the evo. If you need the dialer codes for some reason, you need to flash a sense based ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ckeathley:
Any ideas how to push a prl then?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mwielgosz:
If you want to update your PRL, you need to nandroid your current setup then flash a sense based ROM and go to System Updates > Update PRL. Then just restore your nandroid backup.

Of course, don't confuse this with PRI which can be updated through recovery.

I was recently experimenting with getting the Profile and PRL to update on AOSP ROMs for the Evo using proprietary files from different AOSP sprint phones, but the test was a failure...sadly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ckeathley:
wow, what a pain. I just want good battery life that aosp provides... and want to bow away from sense but this is a must to be able to update my prl with one I have on my sd. Thanks much
[EVO 4G Android Development] lordtinuviel:
havent try this rom, how good is it....
[EVO 4G Android Development] Toney Starks:
is there a way to kill apps by long pressing the back button like on other aosp roms

cant figure it out for the life of me on this rom
[EVO 4G Android Development] badvcr:
No, the devs didn't get to that point .

It has been a long time since the last update, i think the devs moved on to new phones, i can't blame them for that... this rom felt to me like it was going to be one of the best if not the best and most advance, well it was promising .

i guess all is left to say is THANK YOU, to all the devs that worked on this rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Toney Starks:
i wanted to flash tiamat kernel, the 3.37 version

and i was wondering can i just flash it and not go thru the whole process of nandroid backup, then wiping everything (dalvik cache, battery stats, etc)

can i just flash it without doing all of that
[EVO 4G Android Development] GeneralSky2004:
You never HAVE to do a Nandroid backup, it's just a feature to save your ass in case something goes wrong. You're more than welcome to wipe/flash without doing it.

With Kernels, I don't usually wipe anything, I generally just flash them. If anything though, you could wipe the cache. There is no reason to wipe your data for a kernel.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Toney Starks:
thanks buddy 'preciate it
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
While you are correct that its advisable to backup, and that its not necessary to perform a full wipe, wiping both Cache and Dalvik Cache is highly recommended. This is especially true when doing major kernel upgrades (like from .37 to .38) or when changing different makes of kernels (like from Savaged Zen to Tiamat).
[EVO 4G Android Development] Toney Starks:
is there a way to manually kill apps on this???

since long press doesnt work on this
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
Going into manage apps and force close that app.

GPS issue

I am Running RC4 "right out of the Box" have not changed kernal or made any other changes. My GPS keeps breaking, I have tried all the usual gps fixes listed here and some will work only for about a day.

Gps is not having trouble finding me it seems that it will not turn on. only happening on AoSP roms. I searched this thread and was unable to find anything similer happening to anyone else.

SORRY IF I MISSED SOMETHING

Love this rom... so if anyone has any ideas of a permanent fix please help
[EVO 4G Android Development] jayshocka:
Wow I really killed this thread
[EVO 4G Android Development] Big-O-Devil:
cant wait to see where this rom goes .... great work

[EVO 4G Android Development] lviseth:
I've done the whole wipe process but, I can't get passed the zen monkey boot splash..been waiting for about 30 minutes...

Is there something I'm doing wrong?
[EVO 4G Android Development] thedudejdog:
You are doing it wrong by flashing a dead rom. No updates since may. Choose a different rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lviseth:
So..I won't be able to flash RC4?
[EVO 4G Android Development] linsalata28:
No you should be able to flash this its just not going to be updated anymore .

If your flashing using cwm recovery try using amon ra recovery and make sure to wipe everything but your sd card.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lviseth:
--

Thanks! I'll give Amon Ra a try later. :]
[EVO 4G Android Development] linsalata28:
No problem let me know if that works for you.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lviseth:
Okay...so I've got Amon-Ra. I did factory wipe, cache wipe, and dalvik wipe. I flashed the rom, and I was finally able to get passed the monkey boot splash. But...from there, I can't get passed the "touch the green android". It's showing me so many different types of force closes. :[

----

I re-read your post, So, I select all the wipes from the menu except for sd wipe?
[EVO 4G Android Development] linsalata28:
Try to go back to recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache then go to other and fix package uid mismatchs or what ever its called that will fix permissions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lviseth:
Yeah, I've done that also.. it still sows a bunch of fc's. I'm currently reflashing. Hopefully this 10th time around will be fine. I really want this rom! -____-
[EVO 4G Android Development] linsalata28:
Try a new download of the ROM something may have gotten messed up on your first one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lviseth:
I downloaded a new one and now in the process of it flashing. It has been about 20 minutes....how long should it take? Would it make any difference if I said my carrier is Cricket? Since, on the boot flash, it does show Sprint. :/
[EVO 4G Android Development] linsalata28:
I have no idea I would think it would flash cause you can flash ROMs not even linked to a carrier but I'm not sure though.

Maybe try the nightly versions of sz.
[EVO 4G Android Development] linsalata28:
Try these maybe.

[EVO 4G Android Development] lviseth:
I tried an RC3 rendition and RC4 rendition. Although, to no avail. They come out with same results. They would get to the android set up screen and open up FC windows. I tried fixing permissions with Amon Ra but, it doesn't work. I've given up. think I'm going to give it another try with a clean sd card. Maybe that'll make a difference?? I'll post an update sometime later this week.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jtadak:

Flashed this rom and it's working very well!! fast & smooth!! keep the good work
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
If you look in <SOURCE_DIR>/devices/htc/supersonic/supersonic.mk you will see it calls <SOURCE_DIR>/build/target/product/full_base.mk

looking in <SOURCE_DIR>/build/target/product/ you have full_base.mk.

# Get the TTS language packs
$(call inherit-product-if-exists, external/svox/pico/lang/all_pico_languages.mk)

# Get the list of languages.
$(call inherit-product, $(SRC_TARGET_DIR)/product/languages_full.mk)

I copy <SOURCE_DIR>/build/target/product/languages_full.mk to <SOURCE_DIR>/build/target/product/languages_enUS.mk (this can be named anything). Next edit the languages_enUS.mk file until only PRODUCT_LOCALES := en_US is listed. No \.

PRODUCT_LOCALES := en_US

Update full_base.mk to say

$(call inherit-product, $(SRC_TARGET_DIR)/product/languages_enUS.mk)

For the Pico TTS stuff, change in <SOURCE_DIR>/build/target/product/full_base.mk

$(call inherit-product-if-exists, external/svox/pico/lang/all_pico_languages.mk

to

$(call inherit-product-if-exists, external/svox/pico/lang/PicoLangEnUsInSystem.mk

This is a pretty quick/dirty change to get a enUS only build, and it's possible I've missed something. This works for me on CM7, not sure about this ROM, but it should be similar. Basically you are changing .mk files around a bit.

[EVO 4G Android Development] tracerit:
there are no LED notifications enabled, is this a Gingerbread limitation (on the EVO)?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mwielgosz:
It's not a limitation at all for GB as CM7 has led notifications built in. I have not personally tested the led notifications, but it is definitely something that will function by the time this hits stable. (Or possibly even beta)

Post sent from Tapatalk Pro
[EVO 4G Android Development] tracerit:
i should clarify that i meant LED notifications with the left side LED. CM7 uses the right side LED whick blinks at a much slower rate. none of the other Gingerbread ROMs have a functioning left side LED for notifications, it's functioning for charging though.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BlueHarford:
No alpha2 has busybox.. not the app but the fucntion built in... im using it fine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] aimbdd:
Its weird.... it said i had no root until i changed it. Accept... i just had to flash again because i messed backing up the rom, and i had no problems with it this time. So i am going to guess it was just a bad flash. Awesome rom! very fast and smooth.

[EVO 4G Android Development] jta462:
hope Mike doesnt mind. Keep a few things in mind here. 1. This Rom is no longer and i'm just a flasher and have no Dev skills. 2. ive seen new kernels and i believe someone else is restoring previous progress of SZ but has nothing to do with this OLD rom. 3. there will be no support for this link. 4. This was the best ROM i ever experienced on multiple devices and wish DEVS were locked in rooms and had no lives as to supply us with such heavenly ROMS as this one once was. i have several people still running this on the OG Evo and works fine. I dont remember all the steps for flashing and setting up, like if you need to flash gapps in same session ect. . . anyway here you go.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Neipas09:
I just looked on my phone's SD card and i still got SavagedZenMOD RC4 on it.

And in the folder i have gapps-20110517

So i'm pretty sure you have to install Gapps right after the rom is installed if you want them on your phone.

I honestly can't remember if the Market comes on the rom without installing gapps or not.
