[ROM]ODEXed CyanogenMod-7 EVO Fried Green tomatoes TEST v0.92 [update 04.23.2011]
First and foremost, the credits:
*cyanogen and crew for CyanogenMod
*aamikam for optimizing the system and apks
*aamikam for being a smart cookie
*jubeh for the proper dexopting order (slightly different for gingerbread)
*evoKings for sending me on this project
*XDA and community
*Sprint for Evo
*HTC for Evo
*Google for AOSP
*others...
Secondly:
This is 100% Stock CyanogenMod v7.0.0 as found here. All that I have done is dexoptimized it to reduce boot time and allow for a more optimized system because the odex files are preloaded and do not utilize dalvik.
A few release notes
*You are responsible for your own actions
*This was a project done by request so please forgive me if there are any issues regarding this ROM
*I have done some extensive testing for a week before releasing this
*This rom can be used as base for other developers (in fact, it was evokings who wanted an odex base. Eyes peeled for acs and company)
*Existing themes may or may not work (untested), but will defeat odex nature of rom
*This is for the EVO
*This is completely experimental and simply for fun
*I am not affiliated with cyanogenmod and company. Again, this is just for funsies

This is an AOSP-based build with extra contributions from many people which you can use without any type of Google applications. I found a link from some other project that can be used to restore the Google parts, which can be found below or elsewhere in the thread. I've still included the various hardware-specific code, which seems to be slowly being open-sourced anyway.
Visit the CHANGELOG for a full list of changes and features!
All source code is available at the CyanogenMod Github!
If you'd like to to contribute to CyanogenMod, checkout our Gerrit instance.
INSTRUCTIONS:
- First time flashing CM 7 to your Evo (or coming from another ROM)?
1. Unlock/root your device and install Clockwork Recovery via ROM Manager or Amon_RA's recovery image (You MUST be NAND unlocked!)
2. Do a Nandroid backup!
3. Update your radio if necessary
4. WIPE
5. Install the ROM
5. Optionally install the Google Addon
- Upgrading from earlier CM7 or nightly build?
1. Do a Nandroid Backup!
2. Install the ROM (your Google apps will be backed up automatically)
HOW TO REPORT BUGS OR PROBLEMS?
- Was it a hard reboot? Get me the file "/proc/last_kmsg".
- Was it a soft reboot or a "boot loop"? Run "adb logcat" and get me the full output.
- Pastebin links preferred
- Please use the issue tracker whenever possible!
Please visit the CyanogenMod Wiki for step-by-step installation walkthroughs and tons of other useful information.
The preferred method of installation is via ROM Manager, or you can head over to the CM Forums for manual downloads.

I will indeed give it a try, Tommy. As always, you are appreciated for your work and dedication. Thank you, my friend....
Hate to sound like an idiot but a little more clarity around this please:
"and allow for a more optimized system."
Also, would themes created for CM7 work on this version?
Will download and see about these tomatoes...hahaha

nice work ! i take it the gps bug is still around ?
Sweet. I love your mods for MikRoms and CM7 is a beast of a ROM. This is like a match made in heaven.
One question though, you never really answered if themes work....
I am not familiar at all with cm7. This was a project another dev asked of me. So if there are gps issues in cm7 stock then there will be in this one i guess. I didnt modify anything.
As for themes , i havent tested any myself. They may or may not work. I know for sure that old themes will most likely be deodexed though so that will defeat the purpose of odex...in that case just use the regular cm7 to avoid issues.

Frequently Asked Questions(Last updated On 6/12/11)
F.A.Q.
*This F.A.Q. Will be updated wiith every release.
What is this rom about?
This Rom is "Inspired" By the Original Rom "Sprint Lovers" created by chris1683, while keeping his twist that he added and adding my own litte tweaks into the latest ota(4.24.651.2).
What Bugs are in this Rom?
The only bugs are the ones in the ota.
What is the diff. between the "Standalone" and the "All-In-One" Update?
The all-in one Update flashes the rom with the latest radios. The Standalone is made for those who already have the latest radios, but if you unsure, just do the all in one.
Why do the "Uninstallable Apps" FC
This is due from older version of that app still lingering in your data, which conflicts with the standalone, flashing the all-in-one will fix this, or reinstalling the app will also fix this if you flashed the standalone.
Are sense 3.0 features in this rom?
No, as that would make it not sense 1.0, but after i finish this rom, i am going to start a new rom with those features.
When is the next release coming out?
IDK, when its done.
I will add more to this F.A.Q. Later, tell me if i need to add anything specific.

Agreed. I always ended back on Sprint Lovers, was a very stable ROM. Can't wait to try this!
Sent from my HTC Evo using Tapatalk
WOW this will be great to have good old Sprint Lovers in my back pocket again!!! It was always my safe, goto ROM when I bricked my EVO!
Take a look at Leo's base, it's very similar to the Sprint Lovers! But thanks for stepping up for all the sprint lovers fans such as me!
Great news! I really liked Sprint Lover's and got a tear in my eye when I installed the stock rooted OTA 2.3.3 . . . . hopefully now with yours, I will once again be able to remove the bloatware I don't want/need . . . can't wait for the mods (battery percentage, no debugging notification, etc) to be incorporated . . .
Agreed, I always liked sprint lover's rom so I will for sure keep an eye on this. I might flash it today and check it out
We're comin from a pure power source.
Cant wait!

This will be a community driven rom, from the beginning to completion. Your requests, reports, testing and assistance will be what makes this rom successful!
A community driven, CarrierIQ free, minimal base rom from which we let you customize. Nothing I hate more than downloading an amazingly stable rom, that has a bunch of unwanted themeing, apps etc. The goal here is to provide a stable rom, with essential performance, and UI experience tweaks without overloading you with themeing, Angry Birds RIO apks, Pictures of my pet rats etc.
Note: I Need testers, ideas, bug reports, and suggestions! Please voice your opinions!

Do a stock theme first (probably easier that way)
Just add the tweaks and mods first while keeping the regular look (w/ overscroll and off animation though) so then you can add the themed version later.
That way people will have the option to flash a slimmed down version of EH17 with the freedom of adding their own themes or tweaks to it.
Just a suggestion (I like stock, lol. Would be great to see a ROM that's stock but with mods and tweaks and no bloatware all in one ROM)
Please keep up the GREAT work!!!

Simply AOSP 4.0
NOT SO STANDARD DISCLAIMER:
I, nor any of the ERA team is (are?) responsible for bricked phones, damaged SD cards, bad flashes, hurt feelings, crying, sleepless nights, restless leg syndrome, constipation, Cher, or any of the other various things you may encounter by installing custom firmware on your phone. Reboot into recovery, wipe everything 3 times, select ROM. Those are your instructions. Anything you do outside of that is on you.
Changelog:
Completely new base ROM used. Ecooce's as-of-yet unreleased Frankenstein v.4 was used as the base for this version. Ecooce provided a very stable, very small ROM that works perfectly with the Simply AOSP we've come to know and love.
All of the latest and greatest build.prop tweaks have come together to create a very fast and stable ROM with excellent battery life.
Volume Hack (Thanks mkasick)
Hotspot Hack (Thanks necrosan)
RFS/EXT4 Compatible (Thanks Officerpolabear)
Wifi scan interval set to 5 minutes to save battery
Simply Settings theme app included
Original Moto Droid 1 AOSP wallpaper (The one that started it all! Well, sort of...)
Genocide 2.0 Kernel (Thanks Rodderick)
Root/SU in ROM rather than kernel, feel free to flash!
Journaling On by default
No default memory-killing settings: compatible with v6 supercharger and other great scripts (by popular demand!)
Audio files and sound defaults from Cyanogenmod used for alarms, notifications, ringtones, and UI. Really can't get more AOSP than that!
I know everyone says this, but there really is a lot included that isn't listed here. There was a lot of moving and tweaking until just the right mix was found.
Huge thanks to TheDub, JohnCorleone, Ksmullins, Compkid, the ERA Team, and a whole slew of other people that helped with testing and answering questions. I couldn't have done it without you!
A COUPLE OF NOTES:
Updated Changelog
We tried to correct all of the issues that people had mentioned; all of the original UI notification sounds are back, tts service has been put back which should correct any navigation fc's, Revolted kernel is included. Also the same hotspot hack files are included in this that I used in the ERA EC05 ROM, so everything should be good to go there.
As always, let us know what you find! Download Link Below!
HUGE, HUGE thanks to pvtjoker42. He has been instrumental in getting this release out as apparently my internet service provider forgot the "provider" part and I've had no way to upload this. Also his persistence and reliability in testing this ROM have been invaluable. Find him and thank him.
This is EC05 based
The lockscreen mod is NOT built into this ROM. A tough decision to make considering it is one of my very favorite mods, but in the end it detracted from the AOSP feel of the ROM.
After to speaking with TheDub who was kind enough to let me update his ROM, he has suggested not including other themes with the Simply Settings app. While there are many great themes out there, I have chosen to respect his wishes.
You will find the standard Froyo, Touchwiz, and Gingerbread themes included.
This ROM is small; about 117 MB actually. That was one of my goals because if you're anything like me I download a LOT of ROMs directly to my phone. That being said, there aren't a lot of apps included in there. Please make sure you have good, recent backups of anything you may want.
With all of that being said, please download and enjoy! I will be checking this thread OFTEN so please come back and let me know what you think. We have done a lot of testing with this and haven't found any ROM-related problems (personal note, don't try and load 137 apps all at once. It slows things down. Yep, that was me...)
Please let me know if you have run into anything and I will try my best to help you.

This is based off of Froyo. I try and leave all of the leaks to ksmullins and I kinda fool with all of our EC05 Roms. Until GB drops, that is, and I'm out of a job!
The hotspot and volume hacks are included but the lockscreen isn't. In order to add it (and I haven't tested this theory) I would think it best to use an AIO Mod rather than just the lockscreen mod as they seem to modify some of the same files and I'm not sure if everything would be functional afterwards.
Also, JohnCorleone and a couple of others had tested with various EC05 themes and found no problems. I would venture to say that 'most' EC05 themes should work just fine.

As long as you are on the most current CWM and wipe everything 3 times you should be fine. I've personally flashed between GB and Froyo countless times without any problems.
Anyone willing to provide some "sexy screenshots" of this ROM?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
If no one else gets any put up I will try to get some screen shots tomorrow if I can. (That turned out about as non-committal as possible...truth is mine doesn't look like stock anymore but if need be I can reflash and take some.)

Awesome, I'm flashing this ASAP...
Will you... marry me? OH also, i'm having a bit of trouble with system sounds. Is it just me?
Thanks!! Wow, a new Froyo ROM, this late in the dance! I'm psyched!
JohnC or KyleS- any advice on themes? Do the B-Reezy themes that Kyle modified with Maddog's lock mod work ok? I will be trying out myself later- gotta mow the lawn first.

The purpose of this thread is to keep people updated on the status of various ROM's for the VZW SGSIII, because although the search button is our friend, sifting through pages of progress is cumbersome for a few of us. This is not a babysitting thread, though - I'm not posting hundreds of links to different pages and answering ROM tech support questions ( at least not all of the time ). If you post pending issues with the ROM, we can get them here and also post work arounds and fixes in a centralized area so as to not clutter the ROM sub forum. This thread will have THREE major parts.

I will be adding more ROM's as they come and as I have more time to. At night when my wife and daughter are passed out, I test these ROM's extensively. I also decompile and check everything out, just to see what might make one tick. You can post any questions you have here, and this way the devs have a centralized thread to look at where major concerns can be posted and fixes/updates/patches can be relayed just incase you missed a reply/skipped a page using the xda mobile app/etc.

Part 2: Complaints, Workarounds and Fixes
---------+++++-------------------+++++-------------------+++++-------------------+++++-------------------+++++----------
Q: I lost my ability to do direct call from text after flashing this rom, and a theme.
A: I'm willing to bet you didn't realize the stock mms was replaced by the AOSP version. Luckily for you, forum post #298 in the Jellybean Domination v7.2 thread has a stock MMS fix, that is also themed blue.
Q: I flashed paranoid android and i lost complete cellular service, and I have no IMEI! Why would they make a ROM like this?
A: It's a fault somewhere between flashing this rom and K-Exec doing it's job. We don't know exactly whats causing it yet. But chances are if you would have READ you would have heard about this being the number one RISK as of right now, and backed up your EFS/IMEI accordingly. A link on how to do just that is in the first part of this thread.
Q: SynergyROM people said that tethering works and VZW Mobile Tethering is broken. What gives?
A: I could have sworn they included a different WiFi hotspot app that works off of one touch. Look for it
Q: Google Now isn't working. I installed the APK and all it says is initializing.
A: As far as I know Google Now is a jelly bean addition, correct? We are on Ice Cream Sandwich. We can't really expect everything to work. A working google now can be found in the Paranoid Android ROM, which is AOSP and Jelly Bean'd.
Q: The Dev(s) of (variable) ROM haven't replied to me or addressed my issue directly. Whats the point of being a dev?
A: This is not the Devs job. The Dev makes the ROM. The Community flashes, tests, and reports bugs/problems. The dev then finds the time to fix these issues when he/she/they can. You're not a twelve year old in a ROM candystore where every ROM is a Daily Driver until this bootloader situation gets handled properly.
Q: Awesome Beats doesn't seem to be working, help!
A: Just because it's on there doesn't mean it's supposed to work. It's experimental, and some people have given the nod and others the axe. Your model may vary. I do have a modified SGSII version of a beats script I've been working on that i've test flashed on mine that works, and I'll pass that out after some more testing and after I find the creator of it and get his/her permission, at least so I can give proper credit for the original compiling.
---------+++++-------------------+++++-------------------+++++-------------------+++++-------------------+++++----------
Hey guys, this is for you. It looks like confirmation of the efs/imei backup working on more than one person. This comes from Paranoid Android thread. I hope this helps!
It is now.. I have data AND voice. Where previously I did not.
itsmefu is correct. I used the backup from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29201792#poststop
To elaborate, I went from:
stock rom->rooted with root66 rom->made a backup of my IMEI/EFS
I did not know this but for some reason this phone views our internal storage as SD CARD whereas the actual "physical" SD CARD is named EXT SD Card... so when i first backed it up I was unaware of this... but I had used the method I linked to back up the IMEI/EFS. So that there is an EFS.BIN on my EXT SD Card.
I than updated my kernel to the latest OTA->updated my baseband to the latest OTA (I advise rolling back to the previous baseband as this baseband is HORRIBLE...)
|_->downloaded the vzd2 image recovery from this thread->downloaded JB GAPPS->downloaded paranoid droid
|_->booted into recovery using three finger method->data wiped->cache wiped->dalvik cache wiped
|_->installed PARANOID ANDROID-> installed JB GAPPS
|_->rebooted... and my data/voice was broken.
SO:
went back to recovery->nandroided back (^ok sorry i forgot I nandroid before the whole installing process...)
|_->got back to root 66 rom with root.
|_->downloaded terminal emulator
|_->followed the instructions to push the imei/efs back into the phone.
|_->rebooted.
Working data and voice. Got 4g/3g/and VOICE (<-the MOST Important).
Repeated the appropriate steps to install Paranoid Android..
Now i have working data/voice.. 4g and 3g.. Going to roll back to previous baseband though as with this new baseband I'm dropped 4g, 3g constantly at the areas when i had constant 4g and 3g! 
---------- Post added at 01:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:06 PM ----------
I can't really confirm but I know I had ALOT of zeroes in my IMEI with broken data and voice... so I'm pretty sure I had it, as I lost connection to network in total.. basically a broken phone but a working wifi tablet? haha.

Please update and say that the backup is at least working.. so it is a verified backup in a sense. So people won't be as scared as before since then the backup was a HUGE if. I can verify this because I made the backup, lost data & voice compeltely, and than rerolled backup and now have a working phone!

May want to make sure it's confirmed on more than one device and total IMEI loss before adding to the main post.
Rather clutter than people flashing and borking phones because of bad info. Mods delete this after a solution has been found and then no more clutter.

Are you talking about the lift to call motion here? If so, that has worked for me on both versions of nosympathy's ROM as well as the most recent synergy ROM.
Pretty sure if the stock MMS gets replaced by a theme/ROM direct call gets borked.
Didn't say it was won completely working, but it's better to have a backup then it is to flash and then be pissed off. One if the main reasons I made the thread is just so people can be aware. There are plenty of roms and same day developers and assholes and trolls, but we need more people helping instead of demeaning. At least now they can look and SAY OK, there is a huge warning in red regarding k-exec and AOSP Roms. Instead of people dev bashing it can help. Also I don't consider this thread clutter.

It should work on any rom based off of mine. Synergy is one of those.
He is posting it mainly because there are some themes out there that default the stock ICS mms.apk instead of the TW secmms.apk that is in my bases. No one had a working deodexed secmms.apk until I released my first base.

Absolutely. Before no sympathy it's safe to say we were stuck, in a way. His tremendous work happened after these themes were being created, and people were blaming the ROM and that's clearly not the problem, and unfair.
Great work by the way no sympathy.

Thats why I suggested the OP to update the thread with the backup to be at least confirmed working for more than 1 person-the orginal OP of the backup efs thread and me-so far... Because than at least people will be less afraid. They still have to be cautious as even getting root is not 100% safe if you don't follow anything to the T.
Well said slic!

Thanks glad you agree with me! Because apparently Farabomb thought it was clutter... which in my aspect I think at least having it worked twice should count as a fundementally WORKING backup vs. a "THEORETICAL" backup... Because realistically till this happened to me we only had one case which was the OP of the EFS thread.. so it wasn't only in theory that it would work.
And i'm pretty sure for a 15 numbers string theres only one way of messing this up..
Btw, thanks Chad for posting what i wrote in the other thread up. And my apologies if it's a bit long, people said they wanted a detailed transcript so I did that..
LOL!
I'm glad it's long. The way people work on xda sometimes, long descriptions and transcripts are needed. I want everyone to work together, because all we will do is benefit!

Oh.. sorry than. Cuz the two sentences seemed to go hand in hand lol.. And it's cool man. I'm not in IRC. I'm at work lol.. no IRC on government comps! :silly: Yeah that's why I told the OP to post that the backup was working but as already stated FOLLOW EVERYTHING TO A T AND YMMV since that part of the info hasn't changed lol.
Well you can try paranoid android rom now with no worries <--less worries- since I was the unofficial guneai pig... thank god I fixed it though lol. I also just got my 4g working again, had to reset my radio to LTE/CDMA/GSM it was set to GSM/CDMA auto. Reset it with the phone info app. Now i can see if it's better than the last baseband.
Will keep you guys updated.
