I rooted my evo yesterday, so I am still completely new to how things work. (Though I have read the forums for a while)
I know I can flash a custom rom to fix the 28FPS limit I am getting, but I don't have time to completely wipe my phone and rebuild everything again.
It's kind of looking like I just flash a kernel? but I am not sure and I don't want to brick my phone.
Is there a way to just fix the performance limitations (i.e. FPS limit) and keep my stock 2.2 and all my settings/preferences?
Thank you.
I searched but didn't find anything that made sense.
Phone:
Evo w/ stock 2.2 (UnrEVOked3 root)
You should be able to just flash a custom kernel, but I don't know how those work on plain stock. Make sure you nand first.

I have rooted stock 2.2 with Kings kernel #9. Works flawlessly. It's hard for me to go back to regular once the FPS is unlock.

Just flash the zip file from recovery. Make sure you do a nand backup before you start flashing the kernel.
Thanks for the info.
I will give it a try later.
Can I flash any kernel? Or how does that work?
I was looking at snap 8.2. Is it compatible with stock & sense?
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=733099)
Also, once a kernel is flashed can you update it without problems or doing a full nandroid restore?
Thanks again,

No. Go for Netarchy's or Kingklick's kernels for 2.2 Sense roms. Snap is only for cm6/AOSP style roms.

I'm using hero 4 on stock odex with no issues and great battery life.
Thank you.
I will read into each kernel.
Any suggestions on which is best/worst?
EDIT: Thought I would post some links to each kernel you listed:
KiNgxKernel
netarchy-toastmod
I couldn't find the link for Hero_over's kernel. The forums search function is down for some reason.
Please correct me if those aren't the correct or official links to the kernels.
with netarchy it says:
An important note for Clockwork mod Recovery users:
Clockwork Mod is reportedly not wiping correctly (ie; if you try to wipe cache/dalvik-cache/data/etc it's not actually doing it, or not doing it right)
You may want to consider using Amon Ra Recovery instead.

not wiping correctly may cause your phone to bootloop no matter the kernel(Fresh's seems to be particularly sensitive to it), you should be ok though. If it happens just keep redoing it till it works.
I'm using netarchy's 4.1.9 cfs ATM and it's working great. Smooth as butter.
king kernel is really good, thats what im on right now. medium use: 500+ texts, wifi on, data on, hour of browsing, 30 mins of music playing, live wallpaper. with all that im hitting ~13 hours and im at 8% right now. king kernel is pretty good, nice and smooth too

Wow! that is double my current battery time with stock and everything turned off to conserve power.
Should I use BFS or CFS?
Can I back it up my kernel so I can reflash it if I ever need to?

im on the latest king kernel which is BFS (the king kernel #9)
as for backing up your kernel...i dont know...(didnt know that was possible). once you unlock fps, you'll never want to go back.
edit: also forgot to add that my screen off is underclocked to max:245 and min:245. so that made a HUGE difference in battery life

There really is no generalization for which is better, BFS or CFS. Every phone is slightly different in build due to margin of error in production. Some people have great results with BFS where others do not. I tried both extensively on Netarchy and much prefer CFS (better performance and battery). Why? I don't know. It just works for me. You will probably have to do some experimenting of your own.
Edit: Also concerning recoveries, I would go ahead and flash Amon_RA's recovery over ClockworkMod just to avoid conflicts. Amon works with everything is very straightforward to use.

Rom Manager won't work with Amon_RA, will it?
I still know very little about root abilities so I would like so stay with something easy like rom manager.
And are Nandroid back ups interchangeable between recovery images?

you can use rom manager to install ra, but then all you'll be able to use rom manager for is to download roms. Which is still ok - some folks prefer it this way, because some things shouldnt be too easy, if you know what I mean. If you let a tool do all the work, what do you do when that tool breaks or is unavailable, and you have to do it manually?
ra can only be used outside of rom manager. Nands cannot be used between ra and clockwork - if you backup with ra, you need to restore with ra, and if you backup with clockwork, you need to restore with clockwork.

I don't mean to be ambiguous, but it really depends who you talk to. Some people swear by RA, and insist that clockwork doesn't wipe properly. Other people can conclusively prove that clockwork does indeed wipe properly, and use that with no issues. Personally, I use clockwork, but do all my flashing and wiping manually and not through rom manager. The only time I ever had any issues was a while ago, with an older version of clockwork.
I also think that clockwork has the benifit of not requiring signed zips, but don't quote me on that.
edit - just wanted to add that some devs will specify one or the other to be specifically used for whatever it is that you'll be flashing. So if they say to use X to flash, you better try using X to flash before asking why you're having issues
idk im new to trying kernals, but im running fresh 2.2 and im only getting 31-33 fps.
using kinklicks bfs 9 kernal
any help?
I have tried most of the kernels listed. For me, the best has been Netarchy's 4.1.9.1 cfs. It is smooth and has not had a single glitch, which I can't say for the others I have tried. The second best I tried was the Baked snack battery kernel #5.
cfs or bfs? What I found was that bfs gave slightly better benchmark scores than cfs, but I had a lot of odd problems or glitches when running bfs kernels (mainly scrolling lag in some apps, and some apps fcing randomly). haven't had any problems with the cfs kernels. Frankly, I haven't found any advantage to bfs because, while it seems to give better benchmark scores, in actual use it seems much slower and more laggy to me than cfs.
Clockwork or AmonRa recovery? I have used both, only had a problem once (boot loop), and that was with clockwork. Since then, I have always used Amonra's recovery to flash with. When flashing just a kernel just wipe cache and Dalvik cache, then flash the kernel. As long as you do not wipe data (reset) you should not lose anything when you flash the kernel.
Oh, and when you do a nand backup, it backs up the kernel you are currently using with it. So you can easily switch back and forth to test by restoring your backups.

I rooted my Evo yesterday and flashed myns rom. I like the stock Rom that my phone came with and I would like to return to it. I would like to improve battery life as much as I can but with the stock Rom. So my questions are, Where can I download the stock Rom? I have hw 004 and it came with 3.30.651.3 second question is, what could I do to the stock Rom to improve battery life?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Sprint Lovers is a very close to stock rom, your best bet probally lies there. After that, you can try running a few apps like SetCPU and Juice Defender. You do have to pay for SetCPU from the marketplace though, so it may not be your first choice.
A task watcher or killer also helps, I tend to lean towards Watchdog over something like Advanced Task Killer. You can also try AutoKiller Memory Optimizer, but if you don't know what you're doing, I'd suggest leaving it on the standard settings.
Is the stock available for download? Let's just say incase of warranty purposes and I had to unroot

You should ALWAYS nandroid backup your current phone image before flashing any ROMs. If you would have, you'd be able to easily revert to the stock.
It is available somewhere, but not sure where for 004/3.30.

Watch out, doing that nandroid recovery doesn't get you back to the stock rom for Sprint warrenties.
What you want is How to Unroot the EVO in 2 steps. After that you can take it back to Sprint with no worries whatsoever.

In these forums are rooted odex/deodex versions of 3.30.xxx.x. Choose your flavor. Improving battery life is subjective at best and the answer comes from you trying anything and everything. People can tell you what works for them but you should take it with a grain of salt, try it, and expect the worst.
Personally, I improved battery life with one simple solution...extended battery. I have tried many roms for the evo and have settled on a rom I built myself. It's funny because I flashed kernels and roms trying to find the best for me and I ended up making my own and using the stock kernel (I have also extended the stock kernel but that's a different animal).

Again for me I settled on a stock rom I built. I still uninstalled all the sprint stuff and I found that uninstalling every single sense related gibberish helped improve my evo overall (battery, speed, responsiveness, memory space). My info/personal experience is also subjective but you can take it, try it, and if it doesn't work for you nandroid restore is your friend and lifesaver.
Good luck.
Thank you very much. I don't thing your being a ****, I Google a lot of what I asked I just can be a bit ocd and wanted to get info from a forum I trust. Its been a while since I did any flashing but I pick things up pretty fast. I'm gonna try sprint lovers next since its close to stock and experiment with others until I find what fits me best. Again thanks for your input.

Sounds like you are running with journaling off. If you have an improper shutdowns on a ROM without journaling you will get corrupt data resulting in FCs. Get good data on your phone, pick a ROM and enable journaling and flash.

Assuming he's on the Eg22 random rom, he probably doesn't have journaling off since the ROM comes w/ Journaling on.
To the OP, I'd try reflashing the ROM one last time, or if all else fails, Odin back to stock EG22, and then flash a rom. Sometimes a clean start fixes everything.
Hope everything works out.

I agree with T980; SRF 1.2 is probably the most stable ROM with the best battery life. If you don't want EC05 and insist upon EG22, I would first Odin using Chris41g's kernel/root, or flash the stock EG22 update by Decad3nce. After that loads, then flash your EG22 ROM. Personally, I had the best experience with SuperHijacked ROM after the Decad3nce flash.
I have read up on some sites, but still sort of unclear. I have a EVO 4G, on sprint, on the stock rom and rooted 2.3.3, I have removed all the bloatware and am curious about Overclocking the phone.

Any Sense kernel should work. As long as it says it's for Sense and not AOSP you should be good. Probably wouldn't hurt to do a backup just in case it doesn't boot.
Yeah I already made a Nandroid Backup, Im kinda paranoid with the wont boot up thing lol. Thanks again guys.
Make sure u use a GB kernel on a GB rom or you will lose camera and video capabilities
We are legion, for we are many.
You must use sense based kernels on sense roms, and aosp kernels on aosp roms. Some can be interchanged, but expect broken things; Wimax, wifi, camera, etc.
As long as you're backed up, if it boot loops, just go into recovery and restore. Everything will be fine. Add a side note, download titanium backup. Will eventually save your ass one day.
Edit: also, as started, must be same platform too. Can't use GB kernel on froyo and vice versa

Okay, so currently my epic is on BML, and I've been considering switching to MTD. I'm using the Legendary Era ROM and Seppeku Kernel, and I'm loving my phone so far and don't really want to change anything. But, MTD does look very promising, aswell as the new update, plus I'm getting sick of my phone bugging me to update.
So, my question is... How can I convert my current ROM backup to MTD? I know there are links to switching to MTD, and I plan on using those but I just want to make sure I've got my backup switched over to MTD aswell, so I don't lose it. But I've got TB pro, so I'm not TOO worried about it.
Umm, one more thing... If I upgrade to EL30, will I have to re-root? Also, will the process be the same and will I be able to restore my old backup?

Yes if you upgrade you will have to reroot... you can't update unless you go back though because you can't update while running a custom rom... if you wanna just keep your current setup for now until legendary updates to mtd but wanna stop the update message then just press install now... it will fail... pull battery and reboot... hope this helps you out... also the threads that you were refering to teach you how to convert your backup... pretty much just renaming files... ext4/rfs to yaffs2...
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
El30 would not be a good replacement for your current setup. Its still missing most of the tweaks and hacks.
If you are just tired of the update bugging you then let it try and update. It will fail and you can pull the battery. When you reboot there will be no more prompting.
Legendary doesn't have an mtd version and while its possible to convert it I wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless they are comfortable finding all the into on their own. If you really want mtd the best is just switch to the latest cm7 nightly and start from scratch. You will have no shortage of things to feed that flashing addiction the
I loved the LegendaryRom 2.2 myself and that was what I was using for awhile. MTD is the bomb though, and if you want to switch now, I would recommend MarcusantROM v3 MTD. Otherwise just stay on Legendary until version 2.3 comes out and is available in MTD. Also, a lot of people have had problems with the EL30 modem, so I would just stay on EI22 for now. If the modem ended up not working for you very good, then you would have to ODIN back to EC05, then upgrade back to EI22. Save yourself the time.

Okay... so, I know if I want to convert my legendary backup to MTD I'd have to go out and figure out how to do so myself. I don't have a problem doing so, it would be a learning process for me and I don't mind learning more. That being said, do you think it's worth it? I'd like to give marcusant's rom a go, but that being said i'd like to be able to switch back to my legendary rom if needed. So before all, i'd like to switch my legendary backup from BML to MTD first.
So, for those of you on MTD, what are some of the pro's you've noticed so far? Any cons? And yes, I've read up on the MTD thread, but i'd like to hear some opinions on this. That being said, I might just end up switching to MTD tonight.
And about EL30, I guess I'll wait until Legendary supports it. Samurai already supports EL30 though, correct?

I'm on an MTD Epic, running Marcusant's ROM Revival V3 w/ Shadow Kernel for TW v.04 kernel. Let me just start by saying that I was on the verge of switching to the Epic Touch, but thanks to this forums Devs dedication and hard work, this ROM,kernel and, E22 ICS theme have brought new life to my device. I've noticed better battery life and responsiveness on MTD. Just IMO this has been the best thing to happen to the Epic 4g since Ext4. Sorry for describing everything I have running...it's just THAT good lol. Try it out, you can always ODIN back to BML.

Most definitely. As long as the Dev has worked out everything properly, you showed be fine once it's converted. Just make sure to follow all procedures as usual and if the Dev makes the ROM possible to auto-switch to MTD then your good to go. If you have to switch to MTD yourself and then flash the ROM, look around the Development forum to find your answer. For a fact MarcusantROM Revival takes care of all that for you. You can always flash that ROM to convert and re-flash the MTD ROM of your choice. Good luck!!

Absolutely! I have been running RC 2.1 on MTD since MTD conversion procedure came out. Just remember to change themes you have to mount system in CWM just before flashing, then unmount before rebooting. Other than that the only thing you'll notice is all the extra app space and stability!
