Geek For Me is proud to present:
Fresh Shift 4.1.1
for your Sprint CDMA Evo Shift!
Included V6 SuperCharger in /system/xbin/V6_SuperCharger_u8.sh for those who want to use it.
Thanks to zeppelinrox for this. I am NOT the dev and won’t be supporting any questions with this script as it’s extensive. Please visit the original thread if you have any.
Added Fresh Updater (v1.4.0)
This will allow you to get fresh rom updates and mods straight from fresh updater
Check http://link.geekfor.me/updater for help on using it
Added some helpful text prompts to hopefully alleviate questions from when people don’t read the FAQ.
Removed some deprecated options to clean up the menus
NOTE: While you can still use fresh updater to download any updates/mods and then flash manually, it will only reboot and flash automatically if you’re using TWRP recovery. It will NOT work with clockwordmod to flash automatically.
Downgraded busybox to 1.18.2 to resolve some scripting issues
Updated DarkTremor apps2sd to 2.7.5.2-1
NOTE: DarkTremor apps2sd is not working on the Shift. If you are getting issues with FC’s or your phone rebooting when you install apps then run: adb shell a2sd remove
I’m looking in to this but I’ll most likely be removing it entirely as the dev for DT no longer supports it.
UPDATE: Spoke to the DT dev who wasn’t sure why it would be doing that however said that the project is abandoned and he won’t be looking in to fixing it. So I will be removing apps2sd in future versions. If you are getting the reboot issue when trying to install apps then you MUST remove it: adb shell a2sd remove
Updated Vending/Market to 3.3.12
Updated SuperUser to 3.0.7
Not every mod in this rom is outlined here if it was done in a previous version. Check the full change log here: http://link.geekfor.me/shiftchangelog

Why am I getting FC’s on gmail/market/voice search/whatever?
FC’s can be a common issue when /system/app contains an app that you already have on /data/app. So if you get a FC on gmail, the market, or something similar, then it can generally be fixed 99.99% of the time by either wiping that particular apps data (Settings < Manage Applications < All < YOUR APP < Clear Data), or going in and uninstalling it which will actually force it to use the one /system/app.
Or, of course, can be fixed 100% of the time by doing a full data wipe before installing! I have verified this rom as 100% FC free (at boot at least) so if you have issues, it’s your particular setup.
Why do I get invalid signature when flashing?
This zip is signed the same as I’ve signed every other rom for the last 2.5 years but was getting invalid signature from TWRC 1.1.1. So make sure signature checking is disabled. You can compare the md5 below to make sure your download is good though.
Is this Ice Cream Sandwich? It says it’s version 4.x?
No. This is version 4.x of Fresh Rom. The Android version is always in my change log and unless it’s tagged as a dev rom, will always be the newest official OTA, or possibly a beta tag for a leaked OTA.
How do I setup V6 SuperCharger?
http://link.geekfor.me/v6supercharger
How do I remove Carrier IQ / CIQ?
http://link.geekfor.me/carrieriq

I always listen to the community as a whole and if enough people want something then I will generally add it to my rom. So feel free to ask. However if it's something that only a few people want then I request that you do it yourself and submit a mod/theme/patch for the others to use!

Install Notes: This update does not require a data wipe if you are on a stock-ish Sprint/Sense rom. If you are coming from another rom then a wipe may be required. Always perform a nandroid backup before flashing.

Fair warning: if you ask me something that is already answered in the forum, the change log, or these release notes, then I'm going to ignore it. Sorry.

Road map for next version:
All changes included in newest version

Thanks flipz for pushing this out. I have been running it since you let the donors have first crack at it. Ran really smooth with stock kernel,but as I like to play and try things I flashed dodgejcr's ext4 conversion and his 1.6 sense kernel . Things is pretty snappy only runnin it at 900mhz,smartass and BFQ.If there are any issues will report them,also is there and Odex version in the works? Thx for giving us shifters another option.

I'd be interested in knowing if you have any issues flashing roms once you do the ext4 conversion? The updater-script mounts it as ext3.

He has a zip that you flash to convert back to ext 3 then I flash any rom the mounts as ext 3 then flash the rom,then back the rom up flash the ext4 zip,restore the nand the flash the ext4 kernel an bam you have fresh shift runnin ext4.

Yeah FDX's method would work but for some reason, even while the filesystem is ext4, CWM and TWRP can still mount it as ext3 for the ROM flash. I havent heard of any problems with it just yet. As a suggestion, it would be awesome to have a sort of 'universal mounting' going on in the updater script to prevent any bugs that MAY occur.
Like I posted in my thread:
Code:
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
would use busybox to mount the /system partition regardless of FS type. Hope this helps you. If you need any additional help, let me know. Ill be happy to help in anyway I can.

They are in his/her original post.

@ dodger, flipz and fdx after alot of reading it seems that you can use the call for ext3 to mount both ext3 and 4 without issues.
so all our updater-scripts sound work without issues
Nice to see you around flipz

when i downloaded app it would reboot

holy crap flips made a fresh rom for the shift, i loved your roms for the hero man!

Can not install Apps every time I try it reboots, i cleared cache partion and Dalvik cache. also did wipe data/factory reset. issue still there. any suggestions? thanks for all your work on this rom, my guess is I'm missing something.

I just downloaded and reflashed. Not having the issue you describe,so maybe it could be a bad flash or a bad download of the rom try re-download and re-flash it. Make sure to wipe everything 3x's .

I just tried installing an app and it rebooted as well. It doesn't reboot until it hits the "installing" part after the download. I tried it with fastboot on and off and still the same thing.
I'll try wiping and re-flashing everything again and see if that makes a difference.

the first one was Google Music, and the second was Astro file manager.

So this is a stock gingerbread sense ROM?

Stop ota notification fix

Better way by RWNube:
Here is what should work:
Open Root Explorer, browse to /system, mount R/W, long press build.prop, and select Open in Text Editor.
Find the line:
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/SCH-I510/SCH-I510:2.3.6/GINGERBREAD/EP4:user/release-keys
Change this line to whatever the new ROM's equivelent build.prop's line is. I suspect that just "EP4" needs to be changed to "FP1".
Save the changes to the build.prop file.
Restart twice or more. I had to restart 3 times to get data back.

Verified this is working!
EDIT: It's some how working for me, but didn't work for most people. Here is the working method to fix OTA notification:

If you don't want the ota right now and sick of the popup do this to fix it....go to system/etc/security and rename the otacerts.zip to otacerts.zip.bak it shouldn't ask you to dl the update anymore until u rename it back without the .bak

I tried this and it keeps saying "Operation Failed." I know that I have root access and have never had problems renaming system files with the File Manager app that I am using. Could it be that the update notification is currently active in the status bar? Any help is appreciated. I want to wait until Eclipse 2.0 comes out and am getting annoyed by the system update notification.
EDIT: I was able to get the file name changed. I recently restored my phone and it lost my File Manager's settings. I just had to go in and allow the FM app root access. But for some reason I am still getting the update notification. Any ideas?

Same here, made the change still getting update notification.

It still notifies you but the window doesn't pop up anymore with this fix, and if it's still popping up delete the update in the cache using root explorer

Tried installing this as well and still no luck. I'm not sure if me being on eclipse 1.4 w/ pbj makes a difference, bit I will try editing build.prop to see if that works. Thanks anyway!
UPDATE: Modifying the build.prop file seems to have worked! I will update if anything changes.

Absolute System Tools has a nice build.prop editor.

For those trying to modify build.prop and don't want to buy Root Explorer, use Root Browser Lite (free) from the market. It has root privileges (assuming you're rooted on your phone) and has a built in text editor for changing the build.prop file.
I changed my build.prop file this morning and only had to reboot once. Everything worked upon reboot and so far no update pop up!
I'm running Eclipse 1.4 with PBJ kernel.

Worked like a charm, everything worked after first reboot as well. Haven't received another notification.

This method worked for me as well. I restarted, had no data, turned data off, then back on, and all is good. So far, no more notifications. I'm running eclipse and pbj.

Where is the update?
Got the notification.. Where is the thing at? A .zip file?
Where is it stored at? I looked on both my Charges in cache directory (there are several) can't seemed to find the update file or what looks like one. Anybody know filename and directory it is stored in.. Would like to delete it..

[Discussion][ROM][S4][WIP] CM10 on HTC One S [Nightlies] PLEASE READ FAQ in the OP

(all credit goes to xkonni, intervigil & the others behind CM10!)
FAQ / Q&A​Some known problems/bugs & their (hopefully working) workarounds:​
Note: before complaining, please try a clean (wipe everything at least 3 times) installation first!
& PLEASE READ AT LEAST THE LAST 5 PAGES OF THIS THREAD!
Wi-Fi is not working:
Make sure you flashed the right boot.img with fastboot
if your Wi-Fi Channel is higher than 10, try a lower one
try changing your wifi country code in Settings / Wifi / Menu / Advance to e.g. Europe or US
App-Switch is no longer "Menu" by default:
go to Settings - System - Hardware keys
configure it like you want
Do I need to flash the boot.img manually in fastboot?:
No, if you're using TWRP and are on a Hboot-version lower than 1.13
Yes, if you're using any other recovery (like CWM)
Yes, if you're using TWRP and your ville has the Hboot-version 1.13 or higher
Phone doesn't boot beyond the CM-Bootanimation:
download the boot.img for the build you're running here, or extract it from the .zip you flashed
flash the (right!) boot.img in fastboot
if you erased/deleted cache in fastboot, go into recovery and erase it again
Notification LED's don't work:
go to Settings - Display - Notification Light - Use custom values
Set it (green/red) for every app just like you want it to be
App XY doens't work:
try clearing cache or/and data
try fixing permissions
Massive battery drain & device is getting hot: (should not happen anymore)
enable 2G only
update to the latest radio, fix permissions and clear the caches
try a simple reboot
turn off Google Now & location history (you will still get the answercards when using voice search)
reboot everytime after you are using camera or gallery
turn off/disconnect GPS Services, reboot & keep them unconnected/turned off (thanks to djsubtronic)
[advanced: deactivate gallery & try e.g. Quickpic & ICS Camera (don't forget to reboot after using camera)]
turn off WiFi if you don't need it and you're not connected
adjust the screen-off time & the brightness
recalibrate battery
"SIM Network Unlock PIN" gets asked for: (should not happen anymore)
just hit "Dismiss"
only a handful of ringtones are shown: (should not happen anymore)
download the app zedge
download & set the ringtones you like just as you like
Sound/Music/whatever only plays through the speakers: (should not happen anymore)
unplug your headphones & replug them
download the widget Wired Headphone/Headset Fix
place it on your homescreen & use it

Please tell me what to add/delete!
hey folks,
I decided (& asked for xkonnis permission) to open a new thread where we can talk about the new features and things that (don't) work yet to keep the original CM10 DEVELOPMENT Thread clean!
Nightlies can be found here:
http://get.cm/?device=ville
[watch out that you DON'T FLASH CM9 OVER CM10!]
please note that atm these builds (& the nightlies!) are not stable, & you should only flash this if you are REALLY comfortable with it.
You should also be experienced in flashing & fastboot, adb & other stuff.
If you aren't then better read, read & read!
Nobody is responsible if this breaks or bricks your phone other than yourself!!!

did you delete everything before restoring? perhaps JB adds things that are not overwritten by an ICS backup?

Tried installing the build with today's date, and it won't boot like everyone else reported.
Going to try yesterday's build and see if there's a difference. Will post another update with the results.
---------- Post added at 11:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:36 AM ----------
Got yesterday's build to boot.
No data or other radios (of course).
Most other things seemed to work. Butter is very nice and I love that lockscreen.
The auto-re sizing widgets didn't work, that is: When you try to put a widget on a page that has some space, but not enough for the widget in it's native form, it didn't re-size automatically.
--------UPDATE--------
Installed today's build over yesterday's and wiped cache/dalvik and it boots and it looks like I have a cell signal! I'll report back shortly!
Also meant to add, I am using TWRP and did NOT flash a boot image.
Will make this a rolling update as I'm still playing around. Will try installing today's build on top of this to see if that's successful.

One issue I had was, after installing today's build for the first time over yesterday's, it got stuck on the "Android is upgrading..." screen. Had to go back into recovery and wipe cache/dalvik for it to behave. Same thing after installing the Gapps package. Then it booted after a few minutes (first boot might take a while.
Still playing around, will report more successes/failures in a bit.

Flashing the latest zip
Mine gets stuck on boot animation then it just freezes.
I wiped cache n dav and got to android is upgrading but then it gets stuck at 'android is starting'

Try flashing, the one from the 17th first, boot up, then go back into recovery and flash the one from the 18th right over it (don't wipe anything). It should boot after that but will definitely take several minutes.

I ran this only for short while but here's what I've found:
WORKING:
Data
Gapps from here: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/aosp-c...nexus-s-guide/
Linking to Google account
GMail
SD Mount Works
NOT WORKING:
After using a bit phone started lagging, got force closes on various things
Phone does not work, can't make calls. Phone rings if you call it but freezes and phone app crashes if you try to answer.
Other issues:
1. After installing today's build for the first time over yesterday's, it got stuck on the "Android is upgrading..." screen. Had to go back into recovery and wipe cache/dalvik for it to behave. Same thing after installing the Gapps package. Then it booted after a few minutes (first boot might take a while.
2. The auto-re sizing widgets didn't work, that is: When you try to put a widget on a page that has some space, but not enough for the widget in it's native form, it didn't re-size automatically.
3. After trying to install 1 more app (Camera360 for fun)then the screen went black and wouldn't turn back on. Tried wiping caches and rebooting, but it hung on boot again.
INFO:
Also, I am using TWRP and did NOT flash a boot image.
Had to go back to ICS for now since I'll be running around this afternoon. Will keep playing with subsequent builds though. Seems like we're getting close! These devs are awesome!

Do these jb roms come with Google now, and the new voice search?

Couldn't find it on CM10 but it's possible I just missed it (since I wasn't really looking for it).
BiteBlaze's ROM has it though.
Not sure if you're aware, but you can get a somewhat function versions of Google Now running on ICS (I've had to work on TrickDroid, CM9 and Liquid ICS so far) here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1749045 Voice search does not work yet, just cards, but they're pretty cool.

Holly crap!
The cm-10-20120718-EXPERIMENTAL-ville (the newest one) booted!! I thought it froze but ten minutes later jelly bean! No joke! :victory::victory::victory::victory:

Anyway to get 50GB Dropbox?

I saw a custom rom (I am not rooted) in the Verizon Section and I was wondering how the guy was able with custom to give people acces to 50gb dropbox , would it be possible to give non-rooted users that option? 50GB Is really a lot for me and it would be perfect. Otherwise I use Google Drive/+2Gb dropbox as free option.
Thanks!

1. Force stop your current drop box app
2. Clear all data
3. Remove the app
4. Download the zip file from this link
MOD EDIT: Link removed. We do not support gaining dropbox space in this manner as it is not paid for. Dropbox will take it back as well after a little time passes.
5. Be sure to put it on the root of your sd card or internal storage
6. Boot into recovery
7. Flash the zip from step 4
8. Reboot your device.
9. Android will show updating, let it do its thing
10. Sign in to the new drop box app
11. After a few minutes get 48 gigs free for 2 years.
PROFIT.

I came from Nexus I was rooted but I've been reading about data issues on verizon s3 with cm10/aokp
I have mixed feelings about rooting on s3

You can root by several different methods. You can flash a stock root in ODIN or do other things. Just because you root doesn't mean you need to run CM10/AOKP. Rooting is just giving yourself SU (admin) permissions.

As mentioned, you don't need to run anything other than the stock Touch Wiz if you don't want to..
Rooting is a separate thing though; I rooted so I could install Google Wallet, TiBU, etc.. and just because!
I am also holding off installing CM10 or anything else, until things have settled down a bit... (thats just me..)
I rooted using the method from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1792342
With this method, you don't need to flash anything.
My mother could have done it, it was very easy!

I am on the fence about installing wallet. I have seen some things in threads I didn't like.
I shop at cvs a lot, and would like the built in loyalty card function...

I think I read somewhere of people getting wallet bricked meaning they lost their security certificates until a final version launches.
A few people claimed a brick after trying to flash or, but who's to say what their software setup and extent of mods were.
I am stock rom with just the Google now flashed to my phone. I rooted via some thread here that rebooted the phone a few times, installed SU and that was that.
That's all really. Is it cool? Worth it? What's your personal opinion?

Rooting is one thing, but to flash a zip requires a custom recovery. What version of custom recovery are you using? I've spied 5.8.4.8 as specific for the Verizon S3. But this post shows 6.0.1.0. Confusing.

Non it isn't hard.
Get a free app called ez recovery from the play store, or get rom manager.
Once you have root, ez recovery will allow you to choose the type of recovery and you just click reboot and get into that recovery.
Select the recovery, click flash, then reboot.
The complex stuff is kexec related, which this does NOT require at all...
If you want stock you can select that too.
From there you can flash the zip.

when I try to dl that DB zip is says something like file is not commonly downloaded and may be harmful. Can someone confirm that zip file in the link in the 2nd post works without issue?

It works fine. It's not going to hurt your computer, that is commonly a chrome message, and happens often with zip archives that are going to be flashed.

Well, there is always the possibility of causing problems, but personally,i just followed the guide here and I did not have an issue... if I had to guess, I would say most of the issues are from folks flashing rooms and not resetting Wallet first. I think there is a fix for that issue now though... I'd have to look.
I will say it is pretty cool to be able to pay with your phone! The first chance I got to use it was earlier today paying for parking at Denver....
Obviously if you aren't comfortable with it, you don't have to install it... the other reason I did it was because Verizon decided I couldn't have it

Does this work for the Galaxy Nexus????

I see no reason why It would not.
Just do the same as I described above, and see what happens.
Cannot hurt, its just a bit of code inside the zip that gets flashed that says you have the HTC version of the app that tells dropbox to give you 48 gigs.

Dude, Yes. Thank you! I have installed and can confirm that it is working.
For everyone looking to do this: Just keep in mind that if you do not have an existing account, (or have not done it yet) they will make you complete "5 steps" before you actually get the storage, all easy simple things though.

As far as the 50 gig DropBox accounts, you guys do realize this is only temporary (I forget how long they give you) & when it expires you will either have to pay for the additional storage or revert to whet you had previously??

I have my own personal build of Carbon with a few extra things added, that status bar CPU temp being one of the things. I'm not a Carbon Dev so I can't answer your question but I can try.
What do you mean by "personal data", your internal storage?

What method did you use to update? Flashing via recovery or Carbon Delta?

Actually i had a very old carbon rom(**012014). then i flashed the new one, downloaded it a 2-3 days back and flashed it today. did now wipe any thing. then after boot the system asked me to update i think thats the carbotdelta thing. So i actually did both.

What nightly version does it say in About phone? Are you sure it didn't wipe because you were using an old version? Can you still put files into internal storage?

im sure i didnt wipe anything, since its the same carbon i thought it wasnt necessary. current version is carbon-kk-nightly 20140615-0050. my apps with app data is present and yes im able to move data to internal.
Usually in case if something gets deleted its the apps and app data that gets deleted and the internal storage is safe rite. do u think the carbon delta way of updating could have done that.

Carbon Delta "should" be keeping your storage. Also in recent builds of Carbon they added the option to keep data/Xposed/density when flashing a new nightly (Persistence in Carbon Fibers). If you can still move files to your internal storage then it's definitely not a corrupt partition.
I'm not sure why it wiped your internal storage, sorry. Did you delete any folders in your storage when connected to a PC?

You can't change the contact list automatic pictures, it was a change made in AOSP for 4.4.3, to match the same placeholder image as in the Gmail app. (1st letter of contact's name). You can try taking one out from an old nightly but that will probably break things.
