Athena Update - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I few members have expressed interest in me updating Athena to include some newer modifications. I had planned on doing this as well. However, with all of these new 2.3 ROMs, I am a little hesitant. It is a lot of work, and I really do not want to waste my free time if no one is going to use it.
The update would still be using 2.2 as a base, but include some of the newer modifications found in my Sense ROM. I do not plan on re-basing using 2.3 because there currently is only a leak build available. So vote up top in the poll. I will leave the poll open for a week.

Anything you put your time into, I AM DOWN and LOVE. I'd love whatever you do just don't waste ur time. cos ur time is very precious to many of us!

Thank you for considering this, I personally hope to see a update released. Used your Athena for the majority of my dINC's life so far. Thanks for all you've done, regardless of the poll's outcome. =]

I voted for a 2.3-based update, but I would definitely check out and probably use any Athena update. Thanks!!

This would get me to leave cm7

I always thought Athena had better battery life for some reason. It'd be cool but isn't desensitized sr 4 pretty close to Athena. I'd hate for you to waste your time. You've already done more for the dinc than anyone else, except maybe cm

Loved Athena too but been way more then happy with the desensed 4.0 If you were to update it I most definitely would go back to but I agree that it isn't necessary and you should not waste your time even though I'm sure everyone would love it.

The current Athena is great. I would vote (and use) for the update. Thanks.

To you fools who are voting not to update.. please leave. this man is a genius and is offering his work! TAKE IT!!!

So....I tried out SR4 and was very impressed. I had a couple of minor problems, but I think that they may have been related to installing with ROM Manager. I haven't tried Athena yet, since I've been rocking CM, but it's on the list of things to try. I do have to admit that I'm liking having GB, so I don't know if I'd really use a Froyo ROM as my day-to-day ROM. That being said, I think it would be a crying shame if we lost you as a chef. So let me ask this: If you don't update Athena, are you done with the ROM cooking? Or would you move on to GB once we get some official love? I guess I'm saying that I'd rather have updates for a ROM that I might only use occasionally than nothing at all, but if you have other projects in the queue that might prove more fruitful, then by all means, quick like a bunny!

Agreed! "It's gold Jerry, GOLD!"
I really like Athena 1.2 and SR 4.0, both great ROMs all around with excellent mods built into them. I would love to see what Mr. ihtfp69 could do with a 2.3 base.

I agree he is a genius and don't want him to stop developing, and I said if he did update I would use, but if he has concerns that froyo is dying I trust his judgement. I was/am hoping rather then working on Athena now he would really attack with the GB official. That is all

I've been using athena as my only rom - it's got a great mix imo
i just finally got SR 4 working decent now so i'll give it a whirl but athena is still my goto - nothing else i've flashed can compare

I would appreciate your work and I would flash. I'm done messing with the new sense roms myself and need the stability of 2.2 back. The only downside is nobody is updating there 2.2 roms now. If you do decide to do this I believe it would set you apart. Plus the new roms have no battery life.
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App

As much as I appreciate and would love to try out any new ROM you make. I would say that to me, I will most likely not be using the Athena updated ROM on a daily basis and would rather see you focus your work elsewhere.

Athena is my default ROM. I am currently using SR 4.0 with the sense items removed while I was waiting for the Athena update.
Would love to see a 2.3 based Athena.
Love your work and thanks!

i love the stability of athena and would love to see an update

Holy crap! If you update this I will use it 4ever!
If you use 2.3 as a base and it's not stable I will probably end up going elsewhere. Been using Athena for the past 5 months (I was a ROM flashing whore before) and it's no doubt the most stable, simple (yet extremely functional) ROM I have ever come across. This ROM is very unique. Amazing work!!
whatever ya do though... please keep social networking an OPTIONAL add-on. Try to keep it real to the first Athena.
Thank you for the Poll and thank you for your hard work.

I was using Athena until I started to get the Nov OTA message to update and it wouldn't go away so I stop using it for that reason.... I would like to see an update tho...

cyanogenmod 6 or damadge control

My friend cannot decide between the two he says it feels the same. can you guys tell me the difference besides sense and froyo.
Unified inbox is one
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
each one has it's own link. You'll have to read each one to see the difference.
I think this is a valid question as these are the two best roms out there and I am trying to decide myself. I think I am going to go with the latest Cyanogenmod nightly. There does not appear to be a lot of information on the damage control due to the limited downloads.
I've only used damage 3.2 up until this point but its time for a change.
well id go with CM6 seeing as how damage is requiring a "donation" in order for you to use the froyo damage....dont know how much of a "donation" it is when its a requirement....
however the intelligent answer would be use CM6 right now since you don't have to pay for it and when damage 3.5 becomes available for free try that...

This is of course your opinion. I believe Fresh is the best Rom out right now. And my opinion is equally meaningless. This is not a major life choice...
I understand practical threads dealing with problems and technicalities but these threads which either ask for an opinion as if it were fact (or people responding with their opinion as fact) or asking about things which are easily found out on your own by taking two minutes to read seem utterly pointless and clutter the forum.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Yeah, tell your "friend" to just try different ROMs and see which is better. If you don't like one, wipe and flash another. Sorry . . . if your "friend" doesn't like one. . . .
DC 3.5 has a lot of issues. CM would be your best bet for froyo. For based off of stock you will probably want Fresh or DC.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
If you want Froyo, these are probably the top 2 canidates. It will more than likely come down to Sense or no Sense. CM6 is a bit farther in dev than DC 3.5 but both still have their issues(like every Froyo rom for our phones). Most of the issues are similar across the board. I've run every CM nightly, RC1, and both DC betas. RC1 is the least buggy, but DC's beta 3 will def be much smoother. If you're happy with your current 2.1 rom's speed and stability, stay with it. If you wanna see what your phone is capable of with a few nuances on the way, try out a Froyo rom. The devs have just about everything working. You can always NAND back.
my friend decided in CM 6. thanks guys.
I loved DC 3.2.3 it was smooth and practicly error less. With that said I jumped to RC1 CM6 and I am loving it. 2.2 and I am not going back. One thing I will say is that CM6 has its settings more integrated into the rom and The old DC had an app to adjust the rom specific settings. For now my choice is CM6.
I know someone mentioned something about donating. Once you choose a rom you like I say donate and be thankful. I know a lot of us spend a few dollars here and there on apps in the market so whats a 5 or 10 dollar donation for a rom.
Honestly, both RoMs are great and both have some of the same Froyo issues.
I tired them both, and I actually went back to 2.1.
Froyo may be great and all that, but I can't notice much of a difference in anything I do on my phone versus 2.1.
All the people dying for more FPS, MFLOPS(whatever that does) must play a lot of game or something because the only way I know I'm getting more fps or mflops is if I run an app specifically designed to test it.
Not at all bashing Froyo because I'm sure it is amazing, just that the Devs here at XDA have made the 2.1 roms so fast and smooth that I can't tell a difference between them and froyo. For me, the battery life and virtually bugless 2.1 roms beat the 2.2 roms for now. Tell your friend to play around with a few, make a nand on one he likes and go from there.

They don't require a donation. He was sending the beta out to anyone who had ever donated to him, ever, including during the Hero ROMs.
People just donated to him now so they could get an early look at it. It wasn't quite up to TrevE and damageless release standards, so they let the people who donated beta test it. You could seriously send them a dollar and they would let you test it. When it's ready for prime time, it will be free.
I've a nandroid of both CM6 and DC 3.5, and they are both great ROMs. I go back and forth pretty much as each one is updated, and it's hard to choose one over the other. I personally like sense, and it doesn't slow Froyo down one bit, as both ROMs test almost identical in quadrant, stdev, and linpack.
When I use CM6, I miss sense. I just like it. I know, I'm in the minority, whatever. When I use DC 3.5, I miss the ultra customization that CM6 allows for, right from the menus.
I'm still undecided, but it will probably be DC in the end, just because I do like sense so much, and from what I've seen, there aren't any drawbacks to it, at least in DC 3.5.

[Q] Do you use a azrael rom???

UPDATE!! Ric is back on board and actively working on Azrael 4.0!!! THIS IS INDEED GREAT NEWS! I am going to leave this thread open just to continue showing my support for his work and would appreciate it greatly if every Azrael user continues to show support here in case he ever needs to be reminded again. Thanks to all that contributed in persuading him to continue developing this awesome Rom!
So Ricsim78 has recently posted in his thread for the Azrael Rom that due to too many complaints to his Rom that he may or may not end up hanging up the towel for good and ending the development of his Roms. Personally this saddens me. So i ask here.....Do you use any of the Azrael ROMS?? Did you use one and switched due to issues?? Should he continue to build his ROMS??? Read his original post .......

I am going to make a few different versions of Azrael X Final, keep this thread updated as progress is made, but I think I have been shown the way by the community here.
I appreciate all the people who do support me. I am forever grateful but I am pretty disgusted by the acts of some people on here. There are lots of ROM options here, so I am sure there is a good new one to pick up.
Nothing lasts forever; maybe my decision will reverse, maybe not. But as it stands, I begin work on one final release of Azrael X. It will be called just that and may well be my last public release of my ROMS."""""
Some may have issues with his Rom but i have not experienced any of these issue nor have any of the other 15+ HTC EVO's that I have flashed his Rom to. Plenty have requested that he use a different base for his Rom. I disagree with this as well. His Rom is plenty fast and plenty stable and if you have problems with how he makes his stuff.....try something else or learn how to develop your self. Its that simple. There are PLENTY of other options to chose from. If your like me and your incapable of developing your own stuff....take what you cant get and thank these fantastic developers that do everything they can to make our good phones the best phones they can be.
IF YOU VOTE ANYTHING OTHER THAN YES, PLEASE DO US ALL A FAVOR AND POST YOUR REASONS HERE. PLEASE LIST ANY BUGS YOU EXPERIENCED. THANKS TO ALL OF YOU THAT PARTICIPATE.
I will only use Azrael roms....Ric's support for his roms is secound to none!!!!

yea you said it. 10 fold.
Yess!!! Thats what im talkin about!!! Everyone show your support for this amazing rom here and maybe, just maybe we can convince him all his hard work has not been in vain!!!! (cross your fingers azrael lovers!!) thanks guys!!
Ok so I flashed my Evo about a month ago and I tried a few different ROMs and I have been on Az's for the whole time. I love it and won't flash anyone else's ROMs now. Please don't go Az.
Ric should do what makes him happy. I did however vote for how much I like his work though and the selfish part of me wants him to keep making them. If he were to ask me, which he hasn't of course, I would say to always listen with an open mind, but not to ever worry or sweat about what the negative folks have to say and concentrate instead on enjoying the process of his work and the majority of us who enjoy it. Here's to you Ric, thanks for everything that you've done so far, I will appreciate it and you no matter what.
I personally don't use his ROMS but I do think losing a Dev from the community because of a few bad apples is poor form. It's too bad he feels this way and I think this thread is an awesome show of support!
I love his roms. I personally love the way sense looks and he keeps that look. Its snappy reliable and awesome on battery life. I hate animations and this rom has the best ones I've ever seen. I use the phone heavily and at 11pm it still has 40% on the stock battery. Everyone says there rom has great battery life and they don't but AZs Rom does. I would like him to continue his dev work but if he must go then that's that. And we should remember his awesome work.
Sent from my EVO rocking AZ using XDA App
I have been a supporter since the day I rooted my phone. I have had no issues at all and definitely hope he changes his mind. Excellent work and thanks for your passion.
It is my ROM of choice and now use it exclusively.
I love the X rom...
I think the trouble most people have is from the different kernels. I run his rom with the stock #15 kernel. It's the only one that flies on my Evo. Any other kernel sucks!
I use it, and its the only rom ive had NO problems with. Id be very disappointed to see the development of this rom stop.
Az I used 3 other roms before flashing yours, and yours is the one that I liked best. I tried a few of the other roms from the devs that I liked on my hero but I didn't like theirs as much as I love yours. So if you do decide to go please add me to your mailing list. I would be honored.
P.S. I check every day to see if you have posted an updated rom.
Take care my friend
Sent from my Fast as F*ck Az'ed out Evo using the XDA app.
for me is the best so far, even convinced my co-workers to give it a try, and they love it too
I have never used Azrael's ROM, but that's just because I've been stuck on a different ROM for a while now, and haven't strayed from it yet. It saddens me to hear of this, possibly losing a dev from the community. I love having so many options for different ROMs, and I find them all to be great, and have different tweaks and features that fit different scenarios. I have never heard anything bad about Azrael's ROM, just the oppositte actually, people praising it. I am not up to par on the type of comments people were saying about it, that prompted his (for free!!!) decision, but I find that terrible. People should show nothing but respect and support for the devs here, and the hard work that they put in. And as far as I know, it seems that most of the devs here work together, and trade info and what not. I hope that people step up and show him support so that his decision can be reversed.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and that is what the thread voting and rating system is intended for. BUT there is a very small handful of members here that need to learn to show some respect! Life isn't perfect and neither is each and every custom ROM. Those who down rate a ROM thread because they have some technical difficulties are morons!
I have yet to see a ROM thread where the dev does not ask the community to please report any issues you find. So how can anybody be so dumb and down rate just for spite?
Rick, I can totally understand how you must feel to put a ton of pride and effort into this nice custom ROM to have it all crushed by a few idiots who can't see past their own selfish moronic ego's. It's a shame these members can't somehow disappear and take their ungrateful selves far from this community and never come back! They will surely continue this childish behavior on other ROM threads. This community would be much much better off without this small handful of ungrateful [email protected][email protected]$!!! Please forgive my French...
Do what you think is best Rick, I totally understand. My advice is to sleep on it a few days and start over... there's always new things coming down the pipes and mabe one day you'll feel better about your much appreciated work. Don't let a couple of dumb punks distract you. We all know your work is at the very top of the list without a doubt. Those couple of spiteful members casting bad votes means nothing to this community. Believe me we ALL know you are the real deal when it comes to your work and awesome support!
Yes and i have never had a problem with his Roms. Hope he never leaves. Rick you rule!
a few words
I've been a longtime Lurker who does not post anything but I had to give this man some much needed appreciation. Hands down this Rom is the best that I have tried here. Its silky smooth while maintaining speed and awesome battery life. I really hope he decides to keep developing but I cant fault him for choosing not to. By the way I just donated to you ric. Hope this helps out the coffee fund.
The ONLY issue I had with his 3.0 rom was the tethering. Not the hotspot but the Android tethering. To this day Im not to sure what happened with it as it just quit on me one day. I didnt blame the rom itself if people read my posts, but I also know I sure as hell wouldnt vote someone down (whatever that is actually lol).
My little brother was talked into (by me), into using his 3.1 and he loves it,cept the android tethering is not working for him either. So other then the tethering issues (which im now leaning more towards rom issue, as im now running Mik and its working again flawlessly), his works been pretty awesome.

Where the [email protected]!$ did Myn go?!

Every ROM I've EVER used has come outta Myn's repository. I've been stuck on his stuff like super glue. The last ROM he's released was 3 months ago for a first release Z port. I mean even flipzmode takes forever but he's had at least two more updates. I even figured he was waiting for an official GB OTA and base a new ROM off that but no green light still. Where the hell did the Guy go?! I suspected he moved to a different device but devs always USUALLY announce stuff like that. He still may have moved . Oh, and.don't flame me all you assholes just waiting to jump my ass. I've been on XDA forever just don't post. I know you guys live for crap like this but give it a rest. Its a question.

He is still around, he has been working on a rom called Synergy with many of the other developers. I just got an e-mail from him last night with the latest nightly. I wondered the same thing about a month ago, so I donated to him and asked to become a beta tester. It took a week before I heard anything back, but he e-mailed me, thanked me, and told me he was working on Synergy with xXxViRuSxXx and a few other developers. I joined Virus's Beta click a long time ago and now recieve e-mails from him and MYN. They are both still around and the rom looks like it's coming along real well. Shouldn't be much longer and you will probably see a release of it on here. If you don't want to wait, you could always donate to him or Virus and get access to it that way.
i've been using the nightlies since 05/31. It's a pretty sweet rom.
Too bad it's a closed beta (I didn't have to donate, but testes/devs/themers have privileges ) otherwise i'd link you.

The latest Kingdom is way better man!! At least in my OP.....it's 100% stable and seems as if everything is working.
You could, I don't know...go to one of the threads for his ROMs and see if there's any action, any posts from Myn.
There's always USUALLY a lot of action on one of those threads from both fans and Myn himself when a new ROM is nearly out or out.
Well, at least it's nice I guess that you realize that you're coming off like a douchebag.
Read the various subforums; if you had you would have realized that Myn is involved in the Synergy rom. I don't even use any of his roms and I've known about it for a while now.
He hasn't gone anywhere:

Instead of asking other people to do your leg work, you could spend an hour reading through the threads to see which one suits you best. Each ROM has its quirks, features, and customizations depending on the dev.
That said, I agree with everyone else. Nils' is my personal favorite. Runs smooth, no issues that I can find, and it's very appealing visually.

It's unlikely there will be an update. OVOrene moved on. Though apparently he got another DINC so, who knows - maybe there will be an update. I wouldn't hold my breath.
Nils' Business GingerSense 3.0 is the one I'd go with except I don't like the dark theme.

Eh, in my book the first ones to ***** dont have dicks..my mind process agrees, glad for your comment though

Am I alone? Or......

Anyone else BORED?! I wanted this phone so bad, and I was extremely excited when I first got it in December. Its still a beast of a phone, but the flashaholic in me is BORED! (Especially coming from an EVO 4G) Am I alone in this?! When AOKP/CM9 first arrived it was exciting, but the TW ICS leaks got old pretty fast. And who wants ICS anymore with the arrival of Jelly Bean! It just seems as if everything has slowed down CONSIDERABLY....and I get why....it just sucks!

If you're bored then you aren't taking full advantage of all the incredible ICS ROMs available.
Take a walk on the wild side and flash a new one each week until someone ports Jelly Bean, but I wouldn't hold my breath. I'm sure if it can be done one of our Devs will do it but most of them are focused on getting source for ICS right now so they can improve on their existing ROMs and build new ones.

Jelly has been out for like 4 days
if you want things that fast get a nexus
I found myself to be "bored" as well, but then I realized that the reason was because of the stability I was getting on Blazer 4.0 (four months of use!).
Still looking for my fix, I started testing out all the new offerings on here. I ruined one GS2, "unbricked" it, bought a white one, then stopped in the GS3 forum to see that PH was making a Blazer rom for that too.
So I picked up a GS3 to keep me busy in my down time.
You could probably go back to your Evo and start having fun again since our work is so boring over here.

+1 why not create your own ROM instead of insulting all our devs here, why do you need to complain for something that you didnt even developed or created
Where in irc is everyone?

Bored seems to be a strong word. I don't think it's that the devs stopped working because there's still plenty going on. They are working hard with what they have but that's just the thing - they don't have a lot to work with. No source, nothing.
Things might be a bit more "exciting" for you if we had real access to Cyanogen or just AOSP in general but we don't. No offense to the devs involved in AOSP roms and the AOKP rom, but they are highly hacked in order to make them work decently on this phone.
For one we're dealing with the Exynos processor - not the S4. Also, Samsung sucked on their source release, from what I understand it was incomplete and will probably be the same with ICS. There's also the emergency call issue the CM team found which is why our phones not supported. Again, that's because of the incomplete source Samsung gave us citing 'proprietary code' being the reason it was incomplete.
So if you'd like to tell someone how bored your experience is with this phone - tell Samsung. Otherwise it's falling on deaf ears around here.
I stopped coming back because way too many people complain about everything...oh well

I'm only bored because I have found a stable daily driver.
Yes, it's exciting to have the latest, but ****s got to work.
Major props to chris41G and crew. I throw money at these guys as much as I can because without them, you would truly know what it is to be bored with your phone... Amazing stuff these guys are doing without source! :highfive:
i am still on aokp 37, even tho 40 is out i'm holding out for source. it's just sort of a pain to backup and reflash and set everything when i feel like it's so close to being "next level". 37 does have a few hiccups but it's been my daily driver since the day it was released.
with the gsiii out and jellybean as the new hotness, i really hope sammy doesn't hold out on us too much longer.
all that said, i don't think it's fair to criticize the scene here at xda (not that "being bored" is major criticism at that) as it's really samsung holding everything up.

Come on dazed don't put on your sensitive hat. Dude didn't mean it as an insult we all love your work. And appreciate just like all the other devs. I think a lot of his point is really contributed to how the leaks have just slowed down. And how jb is basically out now and we still don't have the official ics update and source for our phone. I feel the same way and I am a flashaholic too. But I am confident once we do get out update plus source we are really gonna see a whole new world open for our device. It's just patients

I don't have my "sensative hat" on, I was just stating that if he's not happy go elsewhere. I don't put my stuff on the level as other devs here anyway. I dont consider myself a dev. The things they do are amazing. I would've never released anything without them and their work. So at least so some consideration to them and word it more to Samsung if that's what he's complaining about.
