Awesome, I've been waiting for this.

I'm getting fantastic battery life on my 2.0.1 right now, so I'm a little hesitant to give that up. Could anyone post how their battery life is doing over the next couple days? Especially those of you who went from 2.0.1 to 3.0.0? Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] p3dr0maz:
Battery Life (Screenshot)

I have no qualms with battery life. This is with almost no use since i got up and just came straight to work. But that's from 100% when i unplugged it.

For those who do not want to click on the link. It says 7H 17min since unplugged and im @ 65% battery left.

I guess that avg's about 5% / hr with little to no use. Should be better when CIQ gets removed.

Also off-topic: It's 4:20 here *wink*

A few questions:

1. There was some talk about over clocking this kernel out of the box, is it over clocked, or should/could we with CPUset?

2. Coming from 2.0.1, DK28 and other kernel, should we be doing a batter stats wipe?

3. On an older version of bonsai, ad blocker was included, is there a reason why it is no longer included?

4. Is JIT compiler on and working in this release?
[Epic 4G Android Development] JPhantom95:
I flashed this over my phone while I was running the Genocide kernal and noticed SetCPU still allows me a 1.2Ghz overclock. Was this included in Bonsai 3.0 or should I be worried?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Randy_T:
I'd recommend just going to the Carrier IQ website to learn more: www.carrieriq.com
[Epic 4G Android Development] Randy_T:
Your questions are answered in the Release Notes.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Randy_T:
Some of your questions are answered in the Release Notes.

It is a constant battle to provide applications that, if we provide them, have to be protected apps. ie. installed in /system/app Makes a lot more sense to me to let you add the apps you like and maintain them through Market. We have over 3000 people using this ROM now, so it is going to be tough to come up with an app combination that everyone is happy with.

JIT compiler is enabled and working.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nathan951:
One thing i missed with eclair is the volume rocker options.

It use to go from (silent all) to (vibrate) to (Ringer Volume...)

On that subject the silent option in the pull down is useless that's what the volume rocker is for.

It should be for something useful like:

1. Data network mode.

2. Used to toggle Performance/Batter Saver mode...

(over clocked or not......)

3. Brightness FULL/Auto

(so you can quickly set full brightness to show off ur phone, or when outdoors....)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Randy_T:
Not sure why you are having as much trouble as you are. Best approach right now is probably to either ODIN to DI18 and let us update your modem in the Bonsai install process or ODIN EB13 and then install Bonsai.

The FCs are due to data incompatibilities. Given we save your apps and data, we may run into cases where an app that is in /system/app on our ROM is not compatible with the data you have in your /data partition.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nathan951:
Ok i didnt know that blocking ads was an app, i thought it was something in the rom, what app was it?

I read the release notes, but it didn't say if you over clocked it, so i guess it safe to assume you decided not to...

And should users assume to do a battery stat wipe? or hold off until next release?

Thanks again for this rom

[Epic 4G Android Development] Randy_T:
I think you probably found the answer to this in the FAQ.

I've just started adding some features to the kernel that I believe would be needed to get TVout to work. Was hoping it would magically work, but it does not. I too have an interest in seeing this work if at all possible. WIP

We switched to toolbox in the kernel /sbin which is part of the initramfs due to limited space there and a need to preserve functionality. toolbox is MUCH smaller.

You will still find busybox in /system/xbin/busybox along with the other symlinked functions. No idea if either of them exhibit the sleep bug. Might be worth reporting that to someone...

Great job Bonsai team, rom of choice currently.
[Epic 4G Android Development] squshy 7:
whoa.....what?

you HAVE to be kidding me...

so we can root our phones, tether our 4g to xbox live to our hearts desire, and remove IQ agent bloatware....

and you meant to tell me ONE guy can't even TRY to get a function enabled that's in every way harmless, and is in fact a HUGE marketing advantage that the EVO has had over the Epic since their inception, without getting a cease and desist letter for something that he didn't even have working yet?

im absolutely appalled...utterly disgusted

i would do it just to spite those bastards

(my apologies for the thread jacking..please don't respond to this)

I made an assumption you would read the Change Log on that same page... :)

Battery wipes are just good hygiene.

Search for "Ad free" in the Market. There are also many others you will find with "Ad block"

can someone, please answer these questions?

I did see where someone posted clockxxx.apk but it wont install. and im sure it doesnt have the smart alarm tones with it.

I have pushed it to they system/app folder but it has wrong permissions and i get an error when trying to fix permissions on it.

am i the only one that uses the alarm clock?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rsp35:
i have the same issues with wifi not working. i've rebooted and nothing has changed.

Good alternatives in market.i use alarm clock 2 free version and a red bell for graphic
[Epic 4G Android Development] musclehead84:
Only other thing I can think of is to try reflashing the rom. I was having this problem when I tried out acs rom. Everytime I tried to turn on wifi it would just say turning on and then turn itself off.

No, download this zip from their 2.xx bonsai apps removed... don't blame me if the evil dictator Dr. CIQ attack your face after you install any of them.

muhahaha

http://code.google.com/p/bonsai/downloads/detail?name=v2.0.1_AppsRemoved.zip&can=2&q=

If only it had the gallery so I could simply pick a wallpaper... anyone use any other apps for this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mjacobsen:
I flashed Emotionless Beast immediately (as always!) and I haven't had a single issue (as always!). I followed his instructions perfectly (as always!). If you don't remove gmail, he warns you that you will have fc's.

I just wanted to point out that Mystery's theme is beautiful and works perfectly with Bonsai 3.0.1.

Your issues, David, are due to something else, not the ROM.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mjacobsen:
I use the stock clock (it is about my only stock app!). I grabbed it from the Bonsai 3.0.0 zip. When you put it in /system/app you have to "su" then "chmod 644 ClockPackage.apk" via terminal, then reboot (although pushing it in with sdx app remover is supposed to work too).

FYI, the version from the zip has smart alarms, I use them too).

Hope that helps.
[Epic 4G Android Development] badbeats:
Forgive me, I have only been using Bonsai for 2 days...

If i update to the new ROM will I lose the apps I have downloaded?

Also If I try a theme such as gingerbread or honeycomb will i lose my apps?

And if I use one of those themes can I still use wallpaper?

Thanks and sorry for the newb questions.
[Epic 4G Android Development] yellowxboy:
thanks, i was freaking out as to why i couldn't find my alarm. haha
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
U won't loose any apps cuz it auto backs up and restores ur apps. If u flash a theme u still won't loose ur apps and yes u still will be able to use wallpapers
[Epic 4G Android Development] musclehead84:
After you update you can just reflash your theme.

If it is more than a couple of percent then you *might* have battery issues. For some it doesn't cause any problems, others have reported various issues. Toggle airplane mode on then off and it resets it.

[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
I had a similar issue the first time I used CWM 3.0.0.6 to convert my system to ext4. There was some corruption in the Bluetooth and WiFi settings. I never nailed it down and just wiped data to fix it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
I'm using AdFree.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
Also, some of the Themes will restore the stock Gallery.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
It's supposed to be good for performance and battery.
[Epic 4G Android Development] henboffman:
Just a heads up that most themes aren't working with the CIQ fix. In any event, the new rom is great, and I have a question regarding this roms installation process. Since this rom includes a kernel, should I be wiping battery stats every time I flash a new instance of this? i.e going from 3.0.0 to 3.0.1?
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
Not necessary unless you think your stats are messed up.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
I'm using the Honeycomb theme, no issues here that I've seen.
[Epic 4G Android Development] henboffman:
Yeah, the honeycomb theme supports noCIQ roms. I think the same guy made that as the gingerbread theme, so hopefully a fix comes out soon.
[Epic 4G Android Development] intulsa:
I'm curious about this. I can't get adfree to update anything. After installation I tried to update with adfree and no matter how many times I updated with adfree it didn't udpate the host file. Host file stayed at 25 bytes with just the loopback as the only entry. It always updated on the other roms I've tried. I pulled a full host file from a previous rom and dropped it in and now adds are blocked. Am I missing something here? Should be easy, update in adfree, host file has been changed but I don't seem to get that. What file does it update, does it go somewhere other than system/etc? If so, it's not updating mine. I'm confused :confused:
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
Try opening Superuser, click on AdFree, then hit Forget. Now try to update the host file again, and click allow when prompted by Superuser.
[Epic 4G Android Development] unxguyjr:
I have tws bug..updated prl have not rebooted to check..I have made it a habit to always hit airplane mode when powered on..just to make sure
[Epic 4G Android Development] unxguyjr:
TWS= Time Without Server....this is a CDMA signal lock issue, the phone does some default to try GSM instead....putting into Airplane mode then back out resolves this until you reboot the phone.
[Epic 4G Android Development] intulsa:
Yep, that did it. Thank you. I did noticed that the su list had it as allowed although it evidently wasn't working. Is this a common occurrence?
[Epic 4G Android Development] joedhimself:
Hi, anyone get wireless tether to work on this rom? I tried clearing data and updating the patch someone posted earlier and still no luck. I'm on version 2.0.7 of wireless tether. If you have it working please post if you have a diff version or method please. This rom is fast and smooth and don't want to revert back :)

Thanks!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
Depending on the type of root your previous rom was using, the SU binary data might not work the same as it does on Bonsai. You may have to do the same procedure for other root applications.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Kelvala:
What I have noticed:

Stock browser (for me) when doing pinch to zoom gets blocky and a slow refresh. I switched to Dolphin and all is well.

If I reboot my phone 5 or 6 times in a row, my battery life goes from 100 to 14%. Yes, I have recalibrated twice already.

Shortcuts were disappearing off home screens: FIX--> go to Settings->Applications->Manage-> then select the app and hit MOVE TO PHONE. No idea why this worked before and not now, but the MOVE TO PHONE keeps it where it should be.

Stock Alarm (for those looking how to replace it) -> I put mine back with Root Explorer, changed the SYSTEMS/APPS to R/W, pasted and rebooted. I have it tied to my fancy widgets and I like how it displays the alarm on my lock screen along with the countdown/stopwatch (time out timer for kids :D )

FC's - I noticed that all of my FC's were fixed when I went into Titanium Backup and wiped the data.

Hulu - works great! Works in Full Screen mode to in Dolphin Browser.

SprintUpdater - still looking for this one. Yeah, I use the Sprint Apps..lame, I know. :)

Everything is GREAT! Thanks guys! Excellent work :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
Try using the same procedure that intulsa used to get AdFree working. It might be the same problem.
[Epic 4G Android Development] robl45:
is it normal for it to bounce between 400 and 800? mine was sitting there doing 400 at the lowest, switched to conservative and it dropped right to 100.

I saw where k0nane had posted a zip with the necessary libs to fix this. Said it would also apply to the bonsai rom.

For those of you who have restored the original 3d Gallery, there is still a bug that causes the Gallery to make the g sensors go runaway and use battery in the background. This was present in dk28 and seems that it has not been fixed in eb13. This behavior was not present in di18. Not sure if the market version causes this also.

To see this in action, after a fresh boot, open Spare Parts, and verify nothing else is using the sensors. Then open the gallery and close it(the camera will activate the gallery also). Now after a few minuits, go back into Spare Parts, and check sensor usage again. You will see that the gallery continues to keep the sensors active even if the Gallery process is not running.
