wireless tether works - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

With the [Kernel]netarchy-toastmod, updated for 2.2 - Version 3.7.6c
And wireless tether 2.0.5 pre 6 however the download speeds are very sporadic so it takes a few min to load each web page. Does anyone know what else we can do to the kernel to get this fully working or do we just have to wait for source?

This is the most i got, may be with the kernel source we wil get more!

You should probably list what ROM you are running, and maybe change the title because wifi tether doesn't work with all 2.2 ROMs, and Netarchy's kernel doesn't work on all 2.2 Roms either. People who are may want more info than you are offering.

Nevermind my questions- I got it to work!!! searched computer for "tether" and it pulled multiple files from my copied sd card titianium backups- found tether 2.05 pre 4 and it worked. thanks for the leads.

I've been waiting on flashing 2.2 until Wireless Tether works.
So fresh3.0.1 and netarchy 3.7.6c kernal seem to be working? How are the download speeds? Is anything else broken when you flash the kernal? I heard that the camera might not work after the kernal flash.

Been running it since last night on fresh 3.1.0.0 and everything's working except google goggles.Camera will only show that its taking pictures in 3mp after you flash the kernel but as long as you have your camera set to 8mp before you flash,it will still capture in 8mp.

Wifi Tethering After Root possible?

I rooted my phone and since I'm like everyone else and don't want to pay 30 a month for wifi tethering, I downloaded 2 apps that do that: Barnacle's and the other wifi tethering app. Neither of them work, anyone have any ideas how to get this accomplished? I figured that since we have root now and there are netfilters in the kernel that we shouldn't have a problem.
I can't get Wifi Tethering for Root Users to work either

Try different versoins of wifi tether. I know on the hero side 1.6 was the only one that worked
to clarify, this is with android 2.1 using the userdebug RUU, not stock 2.1 or froyo 2.2, right?
now that you have ADB access, when you open one of the apk files to test it, can you monitor logcat and paste the results/errors it throws back here for us.
those of us w/o an EVO yet, less than 24 hrs, can try our best to help troubleshoot and give recommendations. hopefully it won't be too difficult!

just throwing out ideas to help speed up the process, not sure how much detail will help them?
might want to include version number of the userdebug rooted RUU we're using and/or radio version?
Joey, give me a few minutes to figure this out and then I'll post the logcat.

as far as I have read, when you test this in normal android mode you need root access.
you'll have root access in normal android mode if you flash flipz's STOCK ROM with root from the custom recovery.
wait does it work for the Stock Rooted Evo Rom posted in the forum? just the standard sense ui rom with superuser ?

Overclocking kernel

I'm not sure if anybody else asked this question, since I couldn't find similar topics on the slide forum, so here goes.
I just rooted my phone and flashed it with the "unofficial" release version of slide rom, since this is my first time rooting, and I tried to flash this: "dopio" OC cm-2.6.29.6, for my overclocking kernel. But when I do this, the phone refuse to start up, it gets stuck in the splash screen. If I don't flash it, then it works fine. Anybody knows why?
I didn't want to go with CyanogenMod 6.1.1 because I can't find the google addons and I don't want to jump right on to CM7 just yet (not sure if I can live without the sense widgets yet, lol). But if CY7 RC2 has most, if not all, of the functionality of the slide sense rom I'm currently using (like wifi hotspot, or maybe a built-in oc kernel) then I might as well flash that.
Thanks and sorry if this has been answered
.29 kernels are not compatible with the newer roms, you must either use the built in kernel or miguels smartass kernel (.32 kernels) (some1 would have to pm you that kernel because it was removed)

ah, no wonder. i tried to look for miguel's but couldn't find it. but just switched to CM7 RC2, feels awesome, just need to get the market to work, it keeps FC on me... but if anybody has miguel's kernel, please do pm it to me

Which gapps did you flash, it should be the universal 0120 or 0115 gapps.
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide
I knew I had the 307, but looks like I got the 120 with no problem even though it gave me an error message... I'll give the 120 a shot, since 307 didn't give me Market at all.
edit: ok, the 120 works for cm7, so I'll give cm7 a spin again. cm6 still doesn't have market with gapp 120.
If you like sense then flash the gratious slide rom on the mytouch slide forum. If not that then wait for the gingerbread sense rom that is about to be released. If you flash the gratious sense rom, then don't flash a overclock kernel over it because it already has it with the rom.

yea, i'm having trouble finding miguel's kernel.
i've been having on and off success with the kernel found in CM6. Can someone PM me the kernel? Looked everywhere, but couldn't find it.
The gingerbread 0115 and 0120 gapps won't work on cm6 I don't think, you need the 1220 or whatever ones there were from december for froyo, and there's a 307? Jesus, how often do they even have to be updated, all it is is the market apk and the gapps installer apk
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide
Ahhh, no wonder. Well, I guess I'll have to revert back to CM7 RC1 if I don't want to deal with Market problems then. When I tried to download the gapp that came with CM6, it gives me 404 error, so that's no good unless somebody can pm me the froyo gapp.

Was the 404 from the cyanogenmod latestversion wiki page? Those links should work. Huh. I don't have a copy of the froyo gapps. What market issues are you having with rc2? My rc2 is working fine, maybe I can help.

was having trouble downloading/installing apps from market, then somebody told me to uninstall the update on market and that did the job. the only strange thing is GPS signal seems to be really weak comparing to before rooting, i used to be able to get my location in my dorm before rooting, not anymore tho tried reflashing the newest radio and all that stuff already, but i guess i can wait till the stable version comes out.
edit: o.o the download link for cm6 gapp is good again, but i think i'll stick with cm7 for now, it works better for me.
GPS has had some issues with cm7, it's well documented. Be thankful it works at all, a lot of people still have broken wifi and gps

New update kernel

With the new update for the evo can I now use that kernel on other roms that run 2.3 with sense 2.1 and will it fix the brightness issue?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Depends on the rom! Just from my experience the version MIK tweaked from the MikG v1.0 - Re-Engineered GB Sense 2.1 + 3.0
[Kernel] - 2.6.35.10-htc-kernal_and18-2 - from the OTA:" worked for me on misfits and of course miks rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1038967
It is in his OP thread.
I am running Gengersense B4, and I spent today updating to all of the new radios. The last thing I did was find the kernel included in yesterday's Gingerbread OTA, and of course, my Wifi now says "error".
The brightness problem with the leaked GB kernel is fixed, but my wifi no longer works. Anyone else with this problem?
I'm using Sac's Kingdom Rom V4 and the new kernel fixed my brightness issue (also made everything run much smoother).
Ya I updated all that crap and then my phone wouldn't sleep. Sometimes don't fix it if it ain't broke. I will probably try it again though.

Did you update to the 2.15 PRI? I know the 1.90 was quirky with newer baseband versions and was causing wakelock. I went with 2.15 today and also update the radio to 05.02, and I'm not getting any wakelock.

There are 2 kernels out one for the stock ota update and one modified for all other ROMs make sure you have the right one .

Just curious, why are you on such an outdated version of MIUI?
Cause everything works..and ICS builds still have some question marks...small ones but there still there and i use my phone for business so everything has to work.
I tried a new kernel and the stock one is better so....
Everything works in 2.3.2, also...
Which is 2 months past the one you're using
2.3 didn't work on my evo...12.9 was the smoothest for me...every evo is different

You can flash the rom over itself without wiping data and you'll be back to the stock kernel.

Yea well once i find a good stable rom i dont update really unless it has a new feature i want.
Back when i was on myns warm 2.2. I was on RLS3 and it was awesome..smooth,great battery. So i didnt update to RLS5 for bout 3 months after it was released. But i gave in for the notification bar quick settings. But RLS5 never gave me as good battery life as RLS3.
So once i find a good rom/kernel combo. I stick with it.

HDMI mirroring rom

Hello, I have a few dummy Evo 4gs. Not active on cell network
I want to use it to play YouTube videos on my big screen led with HDMI.
Can someone point me to a working ron that does HDMI output mirroring?
Ideally I would like a fully baked rom. Something I can flash and HDMI mirroring will work for YouTube playing.
Anyone got any recommendations?
HDMI mirroring functionality is found in the kernel which is interchangeable between ROMs, its a commonly found feature in all the best kernels available.
Take your pick.
I would recommend one for you.but you didn't mention whether you're running a Sense or AOSP ROM.
If you're looking at flashing any ROM then pick whatever ROM and flash the kernel afterwards.
Me personally I run MikG 3.1 (Sense Rom) and the Classic Kernel (Sense Kernel) and use HDMI out all the time automatically outputs when plugged in.
Ok in will try mik rom. Is the classic kernel a separate flash?
And if I install mik rom, it's hdmiout baked in the rom? Or I have to install an additional apk file
Best combo I have found on the OG EVO is decks reloaded Rom with the baked in mason kernel. Then use the HDMWIN app just make sure its granted SU it does not always automatically prompt it. I use Hdmi on a daily basis without issues.
I found many decks reloaded Rom and kernels, could you point me to the right links?
Also how do you get the market working therre

I'm going to assume you are talking about Myn's 2.2 as I see you have a question on this. Myn's is a sense rom so you don't need to flash gapps.
Did you sign into your google account as the market is tied to it. Have not been on that rom in forever.
Kernels get flashed in recovery. For Myn's rom you can only use Froyo kernels.
Wow...
Yes market is the "play store".
Mason kernel is baked in
Flash gapps GB gapps right after Rom in recovery. Just like it instructs to do so.

It works on stock rom but if you like that stock rom feel but 20x better I would suggest trying tommytomatoe' s classic rom. So much time and effort has gone into that rom it will blow you away. Also made by one of the greatest devs the OG EVO has had here. Please do yourself a favor and flash it even if it's just to try it out.
