Ok, so I have been lurking XDA for a long time, and I finally have an issue I cant find resolution for. I recently flashed from Fresh Evo 3.5.0.1 (Excellent job Flipz) to a Gingerbread port by Virus (again, outstanding job) but my Sprint VVM is acting up, even after retrieving it from the Evo Gingerbread leak and doing the TI Backup trick. Does anyone have an apk for Sprint VVM T.5.1.0.60?
I appreciate any help, thanks in advance!
Check the gapps from the EVO-Deck roms, you can extract it from there and give it a try. Link is on my sig
Thanks, I really appreciate it. I can do without 4G, since we dont have it yet in Phoenix, but the lack of VVM was almost a dealbreaker here.
Not to discourage anyone from visiting Deck's excellent page, but I think the link that takes you to what the OP is requesting in a single click is http://www.mediafire.com/?136t28isl75zdgl
No worries, the apk I was looking for was there in both cases.

Hey folks!
A friend gave me a hand getting DamageControl 3.5 on my EVO and I love it. I've been told that 3.6 has some new features so I'm going to upgrade to 3.6. I love all the info that's on this forum, but I've got a couple noob-ish questions, I'm afraid:
Somebody mentioned flashing radios/firmwares, where can I find those? Do I really need them?
Evidently in 3.6 there's new battery-saving features. Should I turn off SetCPU now? Are the two features mutually exclusive?
I like the idea of JuiceDefender, but how does the data-limiting feature work? If I launch the email app, will it turn on data or do I have to wait? Will I still get text messages if data is off?
Hmm, I suppose 3 questions
Thanks for your time!
EDIT: Hmmm, I appear to be in the wrong forum. My mistake... if a mod can fix that would be nice.

Unless you're have horrible signal, chances are you're fine the way it is. I believe there's a thread someone in this board (i think i saw it in the past few days) that was keeping track of the current radios, etc. I personally haven't upgraded my radios since i got mine in July.
Evidently in 3.6 there's new battery-saving features. Should I turn off SetCPU now? Are the two features mutually exclusive?
I haven't checked in on DC in awhile, but see if it says anything in the OP. If it's using Calkin's or Myn's ( i forget who ported it ) SetCPU will probably interfere & do more harm than good.
I like the idea of JuiceDefender, but how does the data-limiting feature work? If I launch the email app, will it turn on data or do I have to wait? Will I still get text messages if data is off?
Never used Defender, but i believe it changes how frequently data is poll-ed for. I would think if you choose to manually search for mail it will turn data back on for you. You will still get texts, but i believe MMS won't automatically be downloaded
Hmm, I suppose 3 questions
Thanks for your time!

Responses in bold above.
Thanks for the quick response! I don't care about MMS, I don't think I've ever had a picture/etc sent to me via text in my life.
How do I tell if I'm using a port? I just grabbed the one off the android store.
OK, OK before anyone starts flaming me and saying read honestly it's too much to read I work and have a family and cant read 1,000 post threads to get my answer.
Now that we've gotten that out of the way let's start with what i'm looking for.
I want a rom that has mostly all the stock things like sprint nav, sprint zone, gtalk, sprint football, flashlight, fm radio etc...... Most of the stock goodies or at least an option to install what i want to install from the stock apps.
Also I want a functioning 4g, 3g and possibly a free hotspot app if not no big deal. I dont want a rom where major things (or mostly anything) is broken.
Now hears the hard part which would prob bring the flame, and please be gentle guys for example virus rom looks like it has some goodies, mikfroyo, and one i really like is myn's warm two point two.
With that said i need to have my phone work not halfway working but fully working web, calls, etc.......
Is it possible to have the best of both worlds with these roms fully functionality with the beautiful customization or is it impossible.
I want opinions or experiences or suggestions and please if your not gonna help my cause you dont have to post.
Thanks in advance to all who help in any way they can
I don't know what your idea of halfway working is, because pretty much all sense roms (besides Desire HD and Desire Z) here have everything working... Myn's is no exception. If you like the way his rom looks, use it. The only roms with outstanding issues (4g and hdmi) are aosp based roms (Cyanogenmod, MIUI, LiquidE). Hope this helps.
FYI, there is a Q&A (questions and answers) section, where this post would belong
semi new
I'm semi new to the android seen but I have used all of the following:
Myn's TwoPointTow
MIUI
Synergy
Virus AirBourne
CM6
Ava-FroyoV9
Frost
Fresh
Out of all of them my personal favorite is Ava-FroyoV9. It does everything I want with no problems what so ever and has a nice look to it also.
Again, just my opinion.
Using virus anthrax and its my favorite so far . Miui looked cool but buggy. And know 4 g. Avav9 was also great myn as well.Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
You don't have to read a 1000 pages to get this info..
the Dev's have all the info your looking for in the first post of their rom threads.
They say wether or not something works or not.. and if it has the stock apps your looking for.. and MOST of them give you the .APKs to install the stock apps after if you want them on you SD card after install..
Simple as that..
Simple rules of thumb:
if its a Sense based rom, everything works.. (Desire based sense roms excluded)
if its a ASOP based rom, no HDMI or 4G yet.
and Almost all of them have the wifi-tether program install by default for hotspot. If not its EASILY installable..
and to avoid flaming wear a fire proof suit. (q&a section, there are no stupid questions there)
Azrael best Rom if u ask me
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
thanks for all you guys response and i will use the q&a section for things like this for now on and Mods if you wanna move to proper section go ahead.
I personally like xxbabiboixx and virus anthrax ROM.. just a matter of style.
funny thing is i work and have kids wife and still im able to post in the correct section and search

hahaha. lol. this is hilarious. cause i have kids, wife and a job also and just like CheesyNutz i was able to find all the information i needed by putting the time in to search for what i needed to find. it also didnt take reading 1000's of post's. but that is beyod the point...... oh wait no it is the point. he knew that he was going to get flamed for not wanting to search the forum for the info he needed. instead he just went ahead and started yet another thread asking the same question asked in other threads. maybe that is why you have to read 1000's of post's.
Okay with that being said...... I personally like AZRAEL rom and the stock sprint apk's are included in a folder that is added to the sdcard when you install the rom.
I just rooted my evo, and I'm loving CM7. I do have some questions, tho. I keep reading about a sense gps fix and updating prl to work properly with CM7. My gps works just fine I've used it. What is a prl update anyway? Do I need to do these thins if my phone is already working properly? Any help would be appreciated.
If your gps works, leave it alone. The PRL is the roaming list so you can connect to a tower; you update it on a sense rom because you can't in AOSP.
What to look for...
I too, just recently rooted my Evo and am running CM7.
Running my speed test app, it's reporting slower speeds than before I rooted. Is that common or do I need to update/change something?
Plus, what should I look for to know when it's time to update the radio/wimax?
Update: Was looking at other threads, came across ManD5 which is supposed to help check md5. Am I on the right track?
Update #2: Found what I needed in another thread. Sorry to bug you all...took longer to find what I needed.

Well glad you found your info, and not bugging, but at least you actually looked, unlike a lot of people here. And that comment wasn't directed at either of you.

Well, Thanks for taking it easy on me.
Seen some of the other threads around here...it gets brutal sometimes.
Does anyone know where I could currently download an older Evo 4G Rom, called
"Evolved Rom Shifted RC One"? Loved this original Rom, and dumped all my EVO files, after I upgraded to my new Cell signal dropping SGSIII phone. I recently went back to a new original Evo 4g from Amazon.
Appreciate any help!
would this happen to be the rom you wanted? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1091799

Thank you for your suggestion, I tried your Rom recently, however I experienced difficulty with extreme lag. I appreciate your taking time to assist me with an alternative Rom!!
Take care,
Download seeder (the app) and see if it helps any with the lag issues
If you dont know what I'm talking about, look up "seeder entropy generator to produce significant lag reduction" and go to the XDA thread hit
Then just download the latest apk (its attached to the original post)
Now install and open it, make sure "suspend rng service" is checked and tap the "enable" button in the top left and you should be good, if its working the bar at the bottom will shoot up and either be completely green or almost completely green/filled

I have been switching between NOS 2.01 and NuSense One and neither of the latest builds have Verizon Visual Voicemail functioning correctly. I do not currently have enough posts to post on developer forums but did not want to just post useless posts to meet the quota. Has anyone had any luck getting VVM working with 4.3/sense 5.5? Maybe someone has a separate flashable zip that can be applied. I have searched and cannot find any source. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Not that I know. I have tried with other Roms on other phones and had the same problems. I finally just said f it and just started using Google voice

It seems like it worked on NuSense RC3 but camera was broken. Now in RC4 camera fixed and VVM broken. NOS 2.01 I can get to vvm to work but it reports media type not supported when attempting to play back message. So close yet so far away.

I'll check it out.
Working on a new build...
I recall dealing with this on the Thunderbolt and Dna as well and it shouldn't be too hard, except that I don't use it to be able to test.
May take one or two more shots at it to get it nailed down, hopefully not.

Thanks for the response. I have been trying to figure out how to get the problem posted to your thread. I have been flashing roms for years but apparently haven't been using xda. Thank you for your hard work on this Rom. It is awesome. If you need someone to beta your RCs I would be happy to. If you need me to try out the vvm tests I would be happy to as well. When I bought the One after running over my gnex, I thought my flashing days were over... So glad they are not. I thought I was a pure vanilla man, but I am suprised how much I like sense. Then add in 4.3 with sense 5.5 and it is awesome.
Thanks again for your hard work. Hopefully soon I will be able to post my findings directly to your thread .
I have a question

Did you ever come up with a fix for this? Im on the new viper rom that released the other day and miss some of the VZW features.
I remember this from my Droid Incredible days, it was a prop.build fix back then:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=953746&highlight=vvm
Change ro.HorizontalVVM=true to false, and use the attached app
Not sure if this will work or not.
You have to re-boot, and may have to rename the original VVM client to like bak or whatever
