New rooted OTA ROM, the new HBOOT that would break S-OFF is removed. I grabbed the Odexed version (Shooter_2.08.651.2_odexed_rooted-signed.zip). http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1223979 There will be a software update from HTC after this installs, two updated apps, one is similar to SPCS4G, it's safe to install these. Updates after that may not be so don't blindly accept updates. I also installed the Radio & PRI Update, and the RPM. These are PG86IMG.zip files you need to flash from the bootloader. DO NOT install the hBoot 1.50.0000 image, that will break S-OFF, it's linked there just for completeness.

MindlessHavok posted:What the gently caress is this? How is it possible to look at that for an extended length of time? The ONLY redeeming part of that ROM is the dialer is halfway decent just because it's minimalistic but the tabs across the top ruin it. It's just ugly as hell all around. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

letsgoflyers81 posted:I was partial to Fresh on my EVO 4G before going to CM7. I hope it supports the 3D soon. Fresh has indicated a 3D version in the pipeline, but it's been a while and nothing yet. I'm trying out Cleanrom now, it's a lot like what Fresh did. No terrible theme, minimal add-ons, and no experimental performance enhancements. Mostly removing extra crap and some nice add-ons. The new animations run smooth and are actually a nice addition. Definitely recommended if you want stuff like the GPS crosshairs and debug icons removed but don't need any extra fonts or awful colors.

Stunt Rock posted:I'm not sure who recommended Warm for EVO 3D but my god the screenshots are misleading. They make it seem like it has this normal flat theme that is just translucent, but instead it's one of those ugly overthemed pieces of poo poo like every other XDA piece of poo poo ROM. I tried it as well, and I actually don't mind the theme.I did notice that Rosie was pretty heavily modified, but I always run LauncherPro, so I completely understand some hate if you run Rosie as your launcher. I only ever notice it in the notification pull-down and it's not bad, just very green. It has a lot of Cyanogen-like UI options that allow clock removal and some Sense tweaks on the fly, which is great. All I've done for customization is Roboto, everything else is either decent or customizable from inside the ROM. Roboto is available directly from the Warm updater app. Battery on Warm is decent, better than Clean ROM on idle. I pulled my phone off the charger over an hour ago and I'm still sitting at 97%, which is what it was when I disconnected from the charger.

ExcessBLarg! posted:So HTC makes me a bit angry. That said, if you have an Evo 3D or Sensation it's not so bad. The official unlock works "well enough". The fact that you have to "fastboot boot" recovery to flash kernels is silly, and I wish they'd fix that, but it's an inconvenience at worst. They're doing it to higher-end phones that people get pissed off about if they're locked. They aren't unlocking other phones if they aren't publicly shamed into doing so. Not much of a mystery to it, people aren't badgering them about the Design 4G because anyone who knows about rooting/unlocking will buy the E3D.

ninmeister posted:So I'm seriously considering using the official HTC unlock method on my EVO 3D. Whats a good rom at this point? Its sounding like CM7 is pretty crummy so far and seems to be somewhat abandoned. Suggestions? Fresh is the stock ROM minus CarrierIQ and some very minor tweaks. Solid stuff, no themes or anything weird. Doctor rear end in a top hat posted:I don't think you're supposed to take it any lower than 300MHz or it will have problems waking up. It may depend on CPU, but this has been my experience. I just lower the upper clock speed limit when the screen is off and I never really notice it.

Ciabatta posted:Thanks for the info! I had heard of people wanting to incorporate automatic GPS stuff with emergency calls, but I didn't know that had actually happened. I didn't think of network-side issues either. On the network side there's nothing special about 911 on a per-phone basis. The network receives geolocation and relays it to law enforcement, the switch that terminates the call identifies it as 911 as well. The network determines where to send the call based on the tower location. In the event that maintenance is being done, carriers aren't supposed to flush 911 calls to take a piece of equipment offline like they can with other calls. This is not too common, and happens after 1AM since events that affect enough calls are FCC reportable. The CM team has no way to test anything they do, like ExcessBLarg! said. There are ways to test 911 if you're a carrier, but as "some guy" you're wasting their time and tying up a 911 line that someone else may need and it's not going to go over well at all.

trilljester posted:Anybody successfully get cron to run on a rooted Android phone? I tried some Market app that was Cron4Phone or some garbage like that and it never worked. I imagine it was being killed by internal task manager to Android, because tasks never ran. Not cron, but there's an alternative that works perfectly. Get Tasker, install this plugin, set it to run at a specific time, and now you can run scripts/commands on a schedule.

brc64 posted:I have a fairly new Evo 3D which I did successfully root/S-OFF. It's running an older firmware (before they even added the screenshot feature) so I figure it's probably worth updating. I don't much feel like changing ROMs and setting stuff up from scratch again at the moment, so I'm fine sticking with the official stuff as long as I don't have to wipe. You might clear your cache first, but it should be fine. There were radio updates so grab those if it doesn't include them.

FlyingCheese posted:The latest version of Fresh added a dancing droid animation when you receive a call from someone that doesn't have an image set on your phone. This animation lags my phone so hard I can't even slide the lockscreen ring to the Answer Call button. It just freezes for a few seconds and the caller goes to voicemail. There is a patch you can install from the mod updater app that removes it, but doing so also clears any other mods you have installed. What mods do you have installed that it disables? I was able to turn that off and add the ICS font just fine.

FlyingCheese posted:It disables the "ultra fast rosie" or whatever mod that flattens the 3D effect when you swipe to different home screens. It's quite nice actually because you barely notice that it's 3D and it speeds up switching screens. I don't use Rosie so I never even noticed.

brc64 posted:Are there any tools that can help me diagnose why my phone seems to like rebooting itself constantly? I'd like yo at least try to narrow it down to being a hardware issue or software issue, since the behavior began shortly after installing the rooted stock update and latest Evo 3D radio. Mine did it too, rolled back the radio and all is well again. I'm still on Hboot 1.4 with the revolutionary unlock so I haven't tried going fully stock on the newest update to see if that helps. I am still getting the better battery life this OTA was supposed to give and the radio didn't affect speed tests noticeably so I'm staying on the old one for now. EDIT Grab the 0.97.10.0808 radio from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193101 EDIT 2: Reading the end of that thread makes it seem like this is affecting others. EDIT 3: After more reading, it seems that flashing just the radio without the RPM/SBL/PRI/RCDATA/TZ combo causes the reboots. Flashed and rebooted, data and voice working. Will report back tomorrow on the reboot situation. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21374142&postcount=131 Also, it looks like flashing these separately can be a very bad (brick) thing, so either do the all-in-one or nothing. 900ftjesus fucked around with this message at 05:16 on Jan 23, 2012 |

Will report back tomorrow on the reboot situation. 12 hours without a reboot. I can update again after 24 hours, but it never took more than an hour or so when I only flashed the radio firmware. If you're flashing the Evo 3D up to the 2.17 ROM, definitely flash this zip and not just the radio. This doesn't update hboot, only the radio bits you need for the new radio.

I tried Koush's for a bit when it was free and brand new and it didn't work but it was alpha/test quality at that point. I already bought PDANet a while back and it's been rock solid on every phone without root.godzirraRAWR posted:I know you're talking about the Bionic here, but I have never been able to get android-wifi-tether to work in my Evo3d. I've gone back 3 versions, and made sure to select the HTC EVO 3D device in options, but I can never seem to connect. Try 3.1-beta11. Set device profile to EVO 3D, setup method Softap, enable encryption, check Wifi driver reload, and check Routing Fix. Leave everything else default. I'm on the latest update running Fresh, so pretty much stock.

ExcessBLarg! posted:That amount of detail isn't necessary. If they even ask, you can say "to test phone software" or something like that. You should call your PSAP, schedule a 911 test call, then call at that time and if you want you can ask for your geolocation just to make sure your phone knows where you are when you call 911.
