Sorry for the late reply but yes its a 32b Rom and as far as wifi i havent tried it out yet if it doesnt work plz let me know.

does the music app work ? in other releases it would force close. if it works ill flash and give it a try

well, i tried it and the keyboard FC. also the lock screen jumps between lock and main screen. it wouldnt let me make phone call or text. i will wait for further updates. just fyi to everyone else.

Will I be able to flash this on my phone and then some 32a kernel patch??
Or will that cause a brick?

Same here locks up keyboard on setup... nice looking rom tho

Just a thought here... and if not I understand. But could you make a version that simply has everything installed to /system which will make the rom incredibly fast even without swap. That way we would only need fat32 and linux swap partitions. I understand that it would mean no apps2sd but that really isn't necessary... If you're unsure check out Evil D's nano Sense v 1.1 to see just how fast fast can get. http://bit.ly/1GOfDS

That is a great idea and I will look into that I'm trying to fix the keyboard issue as we speak and most likely it will be fixed on the next release I am running it on my phone as well to catch most bugs the music player is very buggy I will work on that too and the autorotate as well

Dialer closes upon any number being pressed. Making it unusable.
Google contacts are not there... even after managing to get signed in at the setup.
pressing "del" in messager backs you back to the thread messaging screen.
Lock screen flicks.... does pretty much anything with keyboard.

Google contacts aren't there by default with pulse roms... you need to go to settings and turn sync on for contacts. It's off by default for some dumb reason.

about to start my first root/rom

Hello group,
Wish me luck. I am about to start my first root/rom install. Going with Andromeda. This will be applied to my 5th replacement phone for the auto shut down issue. It just arrived. I am getting tired of getting replacements and waiting for a good one so that I can go to 2.2. I have read the guides. I have a couple questions that I can't find a clear answer on.
1) I already have a paid version of mybackup pro. Can that be used instead of titanium?
2) My phone is up and running on the stock 2.1. Is it normal to restore all apps, data and system settings from the 2.1 phone to the 2.2 install? Are the system setting compatible between the two?
3) I think I recall some mention of writing down some number from your original phone so that if you have to set it back to stock for warranty. I don't see that in the official instructions though. Is there such a precaution necessary?
Thanks in advance.

1. should owrk
2.Never restore system data. Your just asking for trouble if you do.
3. Back up your efs folder from system and copy it to your pc. As roms chnage android id and imei

cool thanks for the quick response. Nubish question from your response. How do I backup the "efs" folder I don't see it using the phone to browse the files or mounting the phone via usb and browsing via the pc. Do I have to root it first?

Yes you will need to root it first and then you will need a files explorer that will allow you to get to the system files. I use Root Explorer my self. One of the few apps that is well worth the money

good luck with the first go at it. I just did the same the other day and must say best decision I made with this phone.

What everyone else said is good. I would also back up your contacts and write down your APN settings. Some ROMs change the APN.
Contacts:
1) Contacts > menu button > Import/Export > Export to SD Card > you will get a vcard file saved to your sd card. You should also back this up on your pc.
2) You can also sync your contacts with your gmail account. I usually take the vcard from earlier and import it into gmail.
APN:
1) Settings > Wireless and network > Mobile networks > Access Point Names > just write down the settings in case they change in the future.

Instead of this nonsense

You will be nothing but happy after flashing. I do not mpost much on here, just read and read, but this site is excellent in finding what you need. I ran Phoenix for a while and it was very good, but I have flashed Serendipity 5.0 with the latest Speedmod kernel and its working great. Battery life seems to have improved for me with this combination.

So did you flash?? What was the outcome? Success? Check out Ceszar's continuum theme for Andromeda, just love that along with Andromeda 2.0

I'm curious too as to how everything went for you.

Yes i flashed. running andromeda for the past couple days. seems fine. much faster and the gps lokcs in seconds now. with 2.2 i can now use skype, flash, chrome to phone and use the power button for the camera shutter. All wins for me. I am not sure I get any more battery life out of this setup. I have been playing with it non stop, so I don't have any real world numbers on the battery life. I also learned that mybackup pro can't restore apps backed up from 2.1 to 2.2 I tried 3 times and every time the apps would fail at some point and I wold have to hard close them.
I have noticed a couple times that I have lost the data connections either on wifi or the 3g. Not sure it's the rom, hardware or just plain bad cell sites. but on reboot the connections were fine.
Over all impressed with the dev team for adromeda. They have an irc channel and there seems to be someone always there to answer my questions.
--pat

Just an update.
I rolled back to the untheamed 1.0 andromeda and then applied the DMT Dark Theme. did not like the battery meter so loaded modded circle one. Pretty happy with the look now. See the attached running launcher pro.

That looks really good.
I wish I had seen this thread before you installed that new ROM. I would have told you that stickies are for sissies.
Do it all from the seat of your pants and depend on luck. That's what I say. (j/k)
Do you see that business about restoring all system data? I tried that yesterday, I think it was. Got a good install of Paragon RC5. I think I then tried a full system data restore from TiBu. Rebooted the phone and it started back up so that it required a PIN to unlock it. I guess because I had been using that function before install of RC5. The PIN did not work. Tried this method not only once, but twice. Finally figured out how to use TiBu for real, I think. Makes me wonder if these locking schemes are worth using. I suppose they might buy you just a little bit of time in case of theft.
If you get to jonesing for something new, check out the ROM mentioned above.
Glad you're happy with your efforts!

Glad to hear it all went well for you. And I like the look you got going there. Seems like you did great for your first time

[FIX] [AOSP] Easiest GPS and VVM Fixes

I'm writing for 2 reasons.
1). The zip file in the current AOSP VVM fix is outdated and you'll end up with either the Ghost notification and a notification to update VVM, which will fail
2). There are too many GPS fixes that just don't work
If you didn't make a Nandroid of your phone, Stock/Rooted, find on on here and flash it, after you make a nandroid of your current setup.
Once you're in Stock/Rooted, open market and make sure VVM is updated. Then d/l Titanium Backup and make a backup of VVM.
Now, nandroid back to your AOSP setup, and extract the app from the Titanium .apk backup.
The actual name is com.coremobility.app.vnotes-6334abeb61350a3ac2629cb6dc18c56e.apk.gz
Unzip that and extract com.coremobility.app.vnotes-6334abeb61350a3ac2629cb6dc18c56e.apk to your sd card. Using Root Explorer, or whatever you use, install the apk.
Open TB, and restore data.
Open VVM, compose a message to yourself.
Done
For GPS Fix, I do the same thing. Go to my Stock/Rooted ROM
D/L GPS Status
Open Maps, and get your location
Open GPS Status, click on menu > tools > manage AGPS
Click clear, then repeat and this time click Download Data.
You'll get a lock.
Open dialer and dial ##GPSCLRX#
Then put your MSL in the password box (You need MSL Reader form the market for this)
the phone reboots.
Then reflash your current AOSP Nandroid, go to maps, then go to GPS Status again, and d/l the data. You should get a lock!

I tried that GPS fix twice with no luck/lock. Plus its a bit of a hassle and pain if you dont have a nandroid of a sense rom. Also I found using the GPS status program, I had to release and refetch the AGPS data every few days and was often a unable to lock.
However galandy has made an impressive GPS flashable fix found {here} - all credit going to the original developer of this.
I get instant GPS lock, 1-2 flashes from the GPS icon on CM7 Nightly (newest d/led at midnight) and I'm locked.
There are several listed in the post. I used **NEW** - Qualcomm Vision GPS Driver v1.1 (recommended)

The Galandy fix didn't work for me and a bunch of people who've posted said the same thing. (Not to take anything away from his fixes, they were genius)
The whole idea of what I posted is you gotta have a sense ROM, and some of the custom ROMS have the epst bug, where the code does nothing in the Dialer. Hence my saying to use a stock/rooted ROM, which will always work.

I was unaware of this method not working, I have used his fix on at least 20 EvO's without an issue.

I understand the idea of your post, I was merely trying to add another suggestion to your post for the people out there that don't have a nand'ed stock/sense rom (such as myself), or that did not want to flash one.
I understand that most roms out there do not have the correct/working ESPT. Please do not let my post count here lead you to believe that I don't know about our beloved EvO's.

As I stated in my OP I was unsuccessful in my stock/sense rom fix attempts.
But if my advise/help is not needed/appreciated on this thread, then I shall go elsewhere.

That's hardly the case, and I don' even know why you'd say that.
Explaining why I posted this shouldn't be discouraging you or anyone else.

I apologize if this has come off dickish. There is no tone when text is involved (the current mood/attitude of the reader fills in the tone of the original poster) and I perceived this as a bash to my alternative.

I hear ya, not all meant like that.

I have no GPS issues but android system is devouring my battery on decks rom. That's GPS drivers causing that? I've flashed every GPS driver I can find including ones I've used in the past on other evos and none are working for me now. Any ideas?

[Q] MIUI v4 doubts

Hello,
I post my doubts here because I can not write in the development subforum yet, and I have several questions about this great ROM.
I've been using it since MIUI v4 was published and I have some questions that I have not managed to solve, because they are problems that in the official MIUI ROM are solved, but in my g3 not, and I have not found references to this problems in the forum.
- Can I change the icons? I find no where I can do it.
- How will the problem of preview of the camera? Today comes the build 2.4.6 MIUI and in this there is no problem, and there are programs that I need to use it and do not work because of this problem.
- When I connect my g3 to my pc whit the data cable, my pc din't see it. I have the "Debug mode when USB is connected" activate. It's a bug or I have to do something special to fix it?
- I can't use any other ringtone than the ones that comes whit the ROM. I can select any song of my SD, but it's like selecting "none" as ringtone. How can I change it?
- Why don't you delete the torch app that it's useless in the g3?
Finally I have to say congratulations to all the developers for a great job. It's amazing what you are doing!!! Than you!!
Sorry for my bad english.

me too like miui alot
- use opre 1.2 for usb connection it works really good
- camera preview is a bug which is yet to be fixed so be patient
-about the ringtones i too have the same problem which is also will be fixed ,message and notification works fine but ringtones does not work properly gives me a head ache
-you can delete the torch application , may be in next build they will do it
- you can change the icons themes-customize-icons ,but i dont think you can change an individual icon like we do in launchers ,call icon is going to be fixed in the next build or hotfix
-devs are on it you just need to be paitent and if you cant try someother rom until they standardise it ,and hope for the best

Thank you very much sudersanmurthy ,
I know that this are minor "bugs" in a ROM, but there are no cuestions about it in the post of the MIUI v4, so I don't know if this are only a problem of my g3 or of the ROM, and I only want to help the developers to make the better ROM for our g3. I've tried other ROMs, even final versions, and are more instable than this one!!
So I wait till the end of t... well, the time the developers need, of course

No probs its good to see this thread anyway beacause i too cant post it on dev section yet so this makes people like us discuss about the doubts

If you have a force close with the miui gallery ! uncheck the installation from unknown resources and then try to open miui gallery ,because i ahd FC when restoring from titanium and Play store never opened always FC , after unchecking all worked fine i dont know why
So when i use titanium i have to lift the ban for unknown resource and i get the error " package installer has stopped unexpectedly " but it restores the application though

Can somebody tell me how good is the video playback, video playing on this rom?

Issues after instalation
After i instaled it, mi phone stoped detecting mi sim card, i had this problem with other ics ports to, none detected mi sim card, can u help me? Also with ics, mi wi-fi seems less powerfull than with froyo or gingerbread, it detects less network, what could it be?

Disable pin lock. They did something since build 3 which causes it to not detect it if you have a pin.

I have always checked the installation from unknown resources, because I use Titanium more than the phone.apk!! and I never can use the Play store, always FC, so I install the app from the PC, or restore it with the titanium, and I have the same error that you say, and Titanium restore the application anyway.

Video does not play yet , but if you insist you could try vplayer for playing videos (correct me if i am wrong)

I flash and reflash and always have the same problem: In the proces I lost my 3g connection!! Till I restore all the apks with titanium, I can't connect my data access. So, I want to know what is the apk that I have to restore to have my data connection. I know the APN configuration of my operator, and create it, but this isn't the solution. Thank you

I want to know how much does the theme work
For me if i apply a theme only the icon and lockscreen changes nothing else changes and if i apply some themes the icons are not properly placed hope they fix this soon because i love miui because of its cool and clean interface but the devs have important things to fix other than themes anyway i really appreciate their work but cant wait to see the hotfix ,hope the communication gets fixed soon

You should first reboot your phone after applying the theme and see if that helps.

HTC Themes Problem

Hey guys, I'm trying to get into HTC Themes and when I try to sign in with my Google account it just keeps saying "We are unable to connect to the HTC servers. Please try again later" I've tried rebooting my phone and logging in with other methods but it keeps coming up. Can anyone else confirm that it is in fact the HTC servers and not something silly going on with my phone? Thanks!

Same problem here. Rooted, s-off, cleanrom. No clue what to dI at this point.

Hey guys, I'm trying to get into HTC Themes and when I try to sign in with my Google account it just keeps saying "We are unable to connect to the HTC servers. Please try again later" I've tried rebooting my phone and logging in with other methods but it keeps coming up. Can anyone else confirm that it is in fact the HTC servers and not something silly going on with my phone? Thanks!

Might it require an HTC account?

I have an HTC account and when I put my email and password in and hit log in and says please wait then a few seconds later I get the unable to talk to HTC servers error. See the attached picture for the exact error.

Exactly the same problem here.
Vanila Htc One M7 — it happens regardless of the way I try to sign in, gmail or htc account.

M8
Where you able to figure it out im having the same problem with m8 developer edition.

I am having no problem. I went to the desktop theme maker site first. Maybe that is required to wake it up on your phones.
https://themes.htc.com/#/landing

Went to the site, even created a custom theme there.
I then tried to launch themes again, no good...

Don't cry too much. The themes created kinda suck. You have no control over colors. They are picked by the app from those in the wallpaper. You can end with pinks and purples which aren't my favorites. As for icons it's easier to use a stand alone icon pack. Only thing that is really useful is that you can change fonts. Then again, the choices are limited.
I want to do things like change notification icons, the colors in Quick Settings, and NavBar icons. We need Xposed. I have Alpha 2 installed and tried Xtended Settings. Phone froze on boot. Did learn latest TWRP will do a Restore of ΠΣΘ ROM. So that's something.

I don't want to be a drama queen, sorry.
I just want blinkfeed to have a black background as it used to do before the recent update, I'm not even interested in fonts or icons.

I think we are expecting too much from HTC Themes. The only way I see to get the colors you want is to use a solid color wallpaper or one with four quadrants and the four colors you want.
As to not being able to log on, maybe they are doing some sort off staggered roll-out and it is out of our control.

Yeah, I still can't log on, getting the same error that I posted earlier.

I was missing the HTC Account service. If you go in to settings>App Manager>All, see if you have "HTC Account", if it's not there, it's not going to work. Not sure where or when I disabled/deleted mine... but I just ended up flashing a new rom on mine. HTC Account is back and it's working.

Doesn't look like I have anything called just "HTC Account". How can this be added? I am on CleanROM 3.0. Thanks!

I am not sure, maybe the cleanrom thread would be more help. I was using cleanrom also... perhaps Scott didn't have it in there at some point? Since it was recently mentioned that he wouldn't be working on a lollipop rom, I have since switched to Adrenaline and voila, "HTC Account" is there and running.

Ugh, I just went to post that question the CleanROM thread but it's closed

Oh man, that stinks.
When I was having the issue, I searched a bunch and came up with nothing. Definitely did not seem like a common problem at all. There were some older posts on a different htc product and how missing that service caused the same error that you and I were having, but the people that had the issue simply had to re-enable the service. Not reinstall it.
I tried reinstalling cleanrom, no wipe or anything, and nothing, still wasn't there.

Blahh, that really sucks. Anyone have any ideas I can try? Thanks!

I suggested early on your probably needed and active HTC Account. I was on CleanROM and thought I I had it there too. Have you all gone to Accounts and Sync and hit the "+" key and added it? It ain't there unless you add it. I do have an app visible in TiBackup called HTC Account. I also have HTC Checkin Service and HTC Connection service which may be pertinent. Maybe HTC Backup includes it. That seem to be readily available to download.
Just some ideas.
Edit: Unzipped CleanROM and there is NO HTCAccount.apk therein. Looked inapp and priv-app so you are on to something. I think there are some all stock ROM dumps in the Development thread. Should be in one of those.
Another thought. CleanROM is Kitkat. Do HTC themes just work on Lollipop?

Great rom so far, had to change the boot animation though, reminded me of the stuff people would put as their backgrounds on iphones in the earlier days of jailbreaking.
