I installed Juice Defender, and currently have the default settings enabled (free version). One of the settings enables data for 1 minute for every 15. When data is disabled, what do I lose access to? I assume general push functions will only turn on for 1 minute, meaning Trillian, Gtalk, mail, etc, correct? What about SMS? Those still come in real time, right? That's not data as far as I know, but I could be wrong. I'm at a conference with fairly flaky 3G coverage inside, but still need to receive texts and calls. Mail can be queued up every 15 minutes, that's fine. IM functionality would be nice, but I need my battery to survive the day so I can live with the loss of instant IM communication provided I have SMS.

dissss posted:SMS still works without data but you'd have to experiment with GMail/Talk push - sometimes it seems to take a while before it starts working again after turning data on and I have a feeling a minute won't be enough. Perhaps you'd be better off just switching data to 2G only and living with the slowness. Thanks for the info. I ended up playing Angry Birds most of the day, and data stays on with the screen. My battery life was great. They do have wireless, but A) it requires a web request anytime the connection drops, which is annoying, and B) obviously push and crap won't work unless I refresh a web page every time I unlock my phone after inactivity. Problem solved though. I might even buy the full version.

I love Wifi Tether. It was a little confusing that it was in the market, since I had to install a totally different version to get it working on my EVO. Stuck in the loving Phoenix airport yesterday, their wifi was not working at all, so I installed Wifi Tether and was happily browsing for a few hours while a few other travelers were asking how I got the wifi to work. Then I used it at my dad's house to supplement his satellite internet. Now I'm downloading Fresh 3.5.0.1 using it rather than paying $5 per day for hotel internet. Hopefully my upgrade to Fresh goes well, because if not I will lose internet access . post-update edit: I finished flashing the radios and PRI at my work's holiday party. Everything went fine. No data wipe, no FCs in GMail or the Market. I luckily skipped the Fresh 3.5 donor betas which had some mild issues, so 3.4.whatever to 3.5.0.1 was painless. The reboot option in the power menu is nice, and the wifi/data/gps/etc toggles in the notification pulldown are great. I can drop SwitchPro from my homescreen now, but probably won't because I'm running out of stuff to keep on it. SLOSifl fucked around with this message at 07:23 on Dec 22, 2010 |

brc64 posted:The EVO was my first Android phone, so it may have just been the root process for that phone when it first came out, but I distinctly remember having to flash a rooted stock ROM as part of the process, which of course wiped out everything else. I guess my question is, does this process root the current stock ROM without wiping anything?

I gave MIUI a shot on my EVO yesterday. After it first booted, it couldn't read my sdcard. I rebooted and it would just vibrate 5 times and blink the notification LED. Pulled the battery, tried again. Turns out it's stuck in Qualcomm Diagnostics Mode, something about the kernel command line being set incorrectly. My bootloader somehow reverted to S-ON. I ended up grabbing the latest PC36IMG and flashing back to stock. It will only boot when connected to a computer, cannot see the sdcard or charge over USB when powered on (because of qualcomm diag mode), and "reboots" after about 3 minutes of use. By "reboots", I mean it shuts down, vibrates 5 times, and blinks at me until I remove the battery, hook it up to a computer, boot into fastboot, select Clear Data, select No, and then let it boot.\ I believe some part of the MIUI image caused the issue, since it was initially responsible for its own kernel command line, and qxdm took effect on the first boot after the flash. Either way, I'm taking it to a Sprint store today to get it replaced (I hope). Other than qxdm, it's stock as gently caress right now after all my repair attempts.

I've seen a potentially similar issue, where the UI in general gets stuck. Certain apps won't draw some activities, but they respond to input. I can type in some text boxes, but the text doesn't appear. Stuff like that. CM7 RC4, EVO. A reboot fixes it of course, and it seems to build back up over time.

Make sure you clear data and cache when going to CM7, and expect the first boot after the flash to take a long time. 5 to 15 minutes in some cases.

EVO 3D temp-root: http://therootofallevo.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=76 After following the directions to get temp root, I pulled su and Superuser.apk from my EVO 4G. I was able to install busybox. ShootMe is able to acquire root, but it produced garbled images. edit: Root seems to get lost, for any reasonable purpose anyway, after a few minutes. ADB shell still displays a # prompt, but it appears that /system loses rw permissions despite indicating that it is still writable (remount says it succeeded).

I rooted my 3D the other night, and it reprovisioned automatically. Superuser works, most root apps work, busybox is installed. But for some reason, Titanium Backup can't get root access. Any ideas?

Codiusprime posted:I know this is pretty basic but have you tried clearing data? And if that doesn't work possibly uninstalling the app and re-installing it? I've had that problem a few times and it's usually fixed by a re-install. I did that the first time, and cleared data, reinstalled again to be sure. No change. Oh well, I'll wait for a good ROM and do a full wipe at that point.

Custom kernels don't work on the 2.3.4 build until HTC releases the source anyway. Custom ROMS based on the latest OTA are affected, newest method of rooting or not.

I've been playing with MIUI on my 3D for a few days, and holy poo poo, it's my new favorite. My wife played with it for about 1 minute and asked for it on her EVO 4G too. Bluetooth works, the in-call volume changing bug is gone, Market works without any extra effort again. Setting the DPI to 270 (mostly) fixes some of the alignment issues with lockscreens and widgets on the 3D while the devs work on a fix. quote:Try starting from scratch again using the steps in this thread. At the very least, you should be able to get TWRP recovery up and running again. Just a note if you are using Boot Manager and TWRP and come across that problem. I find TWRP vastly more organized and easy to use compared to Clockwork, so use it if possible. SLOSifl fucked around with this message at 00:04 on Sep 29, 2011 |

Krittick posted:Would sure love to know how to unlock my phone when this MIUI theme I installed doesn't actually have a working lockscreen and sliding the indicator does gently caress all. But since you did a factory reset, use an LCD density changer, or edit build.prop to set the DPI to 270. If that doesn't describe your scenario, I've heard that tomorrow's release of MIUI will have some widget, lockscreen and alignment changes.

This week's MIUI update for the EVO 3D is incredibly stable and smooth. Last week's fixed most of my problems, and this week's fixed the last one - no need to change the DPI to 270 to get properly aligned widgets and lockscreens. No 3D support for viewing yet (can capture in 3D), and no 4G, but this ROM is so goddamned smooth I can't imaging going back to CM or Sense. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271824 If you're not on MIUI and want to try, nandroid, wipe everything and flash this one. It's easily my favorite ROM.

Stunt Rock posted:And for those of us without 4G coverage 3D is the only thing lacking. The only question I have is if it's possible to get Sprint Visual Voicemail back on MIUI? It's kind of essential for me. * If you don't have a reason to skip Google Voice integration on Sprint, it's very useful in a lot of situations. Calls, voicemail and texting from tablets and the computer and group filtering, customizable call screening, etc. And it works out of the box on any Android device so there is no worry about finding a carrier specific app for custom ROMs. edit: Depending on which devices are turned on in my house, I get up to 4 notifications of a text/call/voicemail, and because of that I don't even keep my phone nearby when I'm at home.

Yeah, you boot into Clockwork/TWRP/any custom recovery and use the backup option. I do not know if nandroid backups are tied to the recovery that they were created with, but I think they are. If you're rooted already, you can use ROM Manager to flash Clockwork Recovery. It's not the most elegant, but it works. Where supported, I like TWRP if only for the better organization of the menus. If you're upgrading or flashing a ROM, make a backup. If something goes wrong and you can't fix it, you can just restore the backup and *everything* will be exactly as you left it.

Did you wipe the cache and data partitions when flashing MIUI for the first time? Clear them and flash again just to be sure. You mentioned you cleared them while dealing with your nandroid issue (no idea there), but did you try MIUI again since?

Wiped data, cache, dalvik too? It so, assuming it hasn't booted by now, pop the battery and try again. I had this problem when I flashed CM on my EVO 4G a long time ago and it scared the poo poo out of me.

# ¿ Oct 10, 2011 22:00 |

Yeah, you'll need to wipe everything when making major ROM switches. The official HTC unlock requires, as far as I know, flashing the boot partition from fastboot. It's an extra step, but it's not particularly hard. edit: Since you already have used fastboot, it's the same command. fastboot flash boot boot.img (which you can pull from the MIUI zip).

You should be able to find an RUU to revert to stock on an EVO 3D. Or root it, make a nandroid backup, and reflash it if needed (if they won't notice a custom recovery).
