I'm switching phones to an evo... Does evo also use .apk as the application string? Or is it referred to something else here.. Getting ready to set up computer for the evo soon and curious to what is transferable to what I already have.....

Yup, apps are still apk format, as is in the market.

Outstanding! Thanks for your quick response... Does evo also need the computer to revert to stock if I want to switch out roms and kernels and such?

You're welcome...and ehh...technically yes and no..
Yes-If you needed to go to stock, you'd have to download an RUU, to run the exe to revert to stock
No-you really "technically" don't have to use a computer to get roms, because you can use rom manager premium [like 4/5$] and you can download from there. I personally find it easy using the computer though. The same for kernels, download the kernel, radio, ect, then put it on your sd, once that is done, boot into recovery and flash each, separately.

No problem. And it should be the same method, how you flashed roms, kernels, apks, ect. Just now you just need to make sure when you flash like a splash image, ect, to make sure its a PC36IMG zip [for the evo].

There are a plethora of ROMs available. It depends on your taste, if you prefer AOSP or if you want a Sense based ROM. Myn's, MikFroyo's, and Calkulin's are the 3 sense ROMS I use most frequently, and they are all fast and stable, just themed different. AOSP based ROMS you have CM, Evervolv, Liquid, MIUI...there really are a bunch, and everyone I've tried has been stable. You'll just have to go on a flashing binge for a week or two and see what suits you best! Kernels, there are tons of kernels as well. Lots of them. Lots and lots.

i went from a captivate to evo as well. agree with k2buckley on roms. regarding kernels, i would first start looking at roms then after deciding on one, go from there. you'll probably wanna read up on the thread to see if the developer recommends a specific kernel and which ones are most compatible with their rom. i personally recommend any of the netarchy ones, but it's up to you and you'll have to choose which build best fits your needs.

anytime. im a long time reader, first time poster. thats what separates xda from all the other forums; a genuine community willing to help each other out w/o bashing and a minimal amount of the oh so common "use the search button" response, when that person could have easily just provided a link to the OP's question. considering the vast amount of search results, its hard to find a definitive answer w/o reading every damn thread related to the topic.
even tho im rather new to the rom scene, that is the sole reason i feel the least i can do is try to share the small amount of info or advice i have acquired from reading the forums and personal experience and give back to the community.
Last night I installed the NON Rooted version of the leaked Gingerbread Rom.
Everything Seems to works. Signal Reception is way better!!!! I notice it so much more!
Some people said the verizon app kept force closing. Mine did right after install and upgrade. But once I rebooted the phone it never happend again, not once.
Gps works perfectly
Camera perfect
Video perfect
HTC Widgets are now downloadable
SMS /MMS is perfect (before I had some force closes and alot of failed sends, Since install of Gingerbread I havenet had one problem.)
NOT ONE FORCE CLOSE ON ANY APP, this seems like a FINAL BUILD
If you have any questions let me know
Also for twitter lovers the PEEP app by HTC is greatly improved.
I am thinking about flashing it before I get my XTC clip just for ****s and giggles.
There are bugs serious enough in it for verizon to reject it, there is a new build in testing.
I cant find one single bug with it. Ive tried everything. My reception is soooooo much better. In bars and actual call quality. I havent seen one force close in 2 days of use and i have atleast 50 apps installed and tried them all.
Now i cant guarentee its final but boy it does seem so.
If you guys want me to try anything on it let me know.

Has the stock internet browser been updated? I prefer it over the third-party ones, but have found it to slow down under heavy use, especially on forums.
And I guess the obvious, any improvements in battery life? Especially with regular use, no videos or games, just browsing, having sync all enabled, etc.

I dont mind flashing RUU everytime.
As far as other improvments. Well batery life has always been good for me. I get up to 12 hours of use of the phone before it dies. That is great for a smartphone!! I dont play games but im syncing Twitter and 2 email accounts. all pages full pf widgets nd im not stop texting and streaming rhapsody.
Alot of font changes in the rom. Also when you do a factory reset it gives you the option to format SD again. In all honesty this ROM is perfect IN MY EYES!
Guys if this is a sign of whats to come from HTC were in good hands!!!
oh also I notice NO SLOW DOWN or stuttering EVEN WITH LIVE WALLPAPER ON......
Now i prefer sense ...but i can only imagine how much better this phone will be when the devs start dropping some sweet roms!
That is assuming a RUU is available for each update, it isn't always available.

jcase you obviously have alot of experience here,
what is the likelihood that we won't see an official gb ruu? it seems highly ulikely to me that htc wouldn't put it out, or someone couldn't get it out
i'm also in phone limbo till the clip arrives, but flashing ruu to ruu isn't the end of the world as it's been made out to be.
would you care to explain the bugs in this build you've heard about?
I have personally had minimal issues. ( gps icon in top bar doesn't go away ) that's all besides vz app non compatibility
Maybe some of you on custom ROMs have noticed that your second core functions strange, which would also mean terrible battery life and abnormally hot phones.
Well, this is due to something causing the cores to switch governors to "performance" upon boot. The only way to fix it is from a script or other app that controls CPU. That's not all. The second core seems to not function according to specs. It will either always stay on, or always stay off. mpdecision doesn't appear to work properly.
Well, I've narrowed this down to "samsungani" and "samsungpowersound" which are located in /system/bin/. Removing these at an attempt to get custom boot animations working and to get rid of boot sounds are what's causing the funky core behaviors.
The fix is to restore the two files and chmod them 755 as well as chgrp to 2000 to get them back to the way they're supposed to be.
I'm not sure if any of this effects custom kernels but it sure does on the Stock kernel.
The file I uploaded will restore the samsungani and samsungpowersoundplay files to /system/bin/ as well as copy over silent PowerOn and PowerOff sounds.
Wow that's awesome that you figured this out. Great job!!

Nah, the zip will only be adding those files back to /system//bin/ if they were removed, like in order to get support for custom boot animations.

Just flashed it rom definitively seems alot more responsive I was seeing the lag and just had some plain weird stuff going on glad we have a dev lime you to find stuff like this and squash it. Do we need to flash this after we flash a rom obviously your rom will have the fix so I'm not worried about it but for others who arent using your rom.
Edit: is there any way I can test to insure both cores are doing what they are supposed to be doing like an app per say

Well, it really only will matter if your current ROM includes a different boot animation and/or removes those files. In any other case, it will do nothing.

OK thanks again love the rom I know you get asked this a lot but if you ever need a tester let me know I use to test for mijuah but my son stole my s2 so I'm bored now lol.
Zip applied, and I had to duplicate the process to confirm what I thought I saw:
Been running blazer 1.6 for a few days now and I honestly don't know what (if any) boot animations are built into that rom, but in the spirit of testing (and flash addiction) I used this zip.
This is what I noticed (and duplicated to confirm)--
Chainfire's live dmesg/logcat (I used paid versions) were replaced by this zip file.
When I "reinstalled" the first attempt found no boot animation files. I attempted install again and this time it did indeed "repair" the logcat/dmesg boot screen.
This is my first dual core so I have no experience in these apps working or not on such phones.
If this is wide spread then perhaps chainfire might want to look into an update to his code, if this is specific to the sgs3 then maybe we have deeper issues to delve into.
Sprint...LF9...Blazer1.6...no other customizations

My co worked who used to have an ET4G and now has a Galaxy Nexus stumbled upon this MOD. Knowing how must of us running any jb ROM have low headphones/aux issues I thought I could post this to try and help.
There is a tiny problem though.... I flashed this last night. I successfully booted my phone but once everything loaded my phone froze up and just powered cycled. I tryied flashing it with different gapps combinations and different jb ROMs. So with that said... do any of you devs or anyone that want to try to modify this MOD for our phones?? Maybe it will bring a solution this this bug?
Thanks in advance to anyone willing to try this and provide some input

From what I can tell from my testing on the E4GT, your headphone and bluetooth volumes are tied to the speaker media volume originally. I haven't seen it in any other builds of CM10, but it seems fairly common in the E4gT's roms.

Never got such things in CM10.1 for all 3 devices I installed it on, but if your goal is that simple, reverting to CM7 (highly recommended, speediest of all ROMs I've experienced, because it's GINGERBREAD) or even stock FC09/FC19 is a good idea.

Because every phone reacts different to every ROM. My epic hated cm7, but everybody here loved it. You have to try several different ones out for yourself and see which one you and your phone like best.

You may not be a new XDA user or new to flashing, but you have two replies here saying why answering this question is moot.
Either follow Andy's suggestion, or follow mine and frost's and flash roms until you find what works best for you & your device. Plain and simple, lol.
It probably looks like I'm being an asshole here, but we've had this asked so many times over the nearly 4 years this phone has been in production. It got old years ago, and the answer never changed.
Peace out guys, not everyone's a flashaholic I know, but yeah I had been one for about a year and tried so many ROMs so that's why I have a suggestion. If @dertdezzy just lacks time like I do now, then forgive him and let him fetch my answer and enjoy GB, but meanwhile @nikon120 's got a point in there, if there's time you should really use your brain and hand to sort these subjective things out.
Maybe it's time to shut this thread?

Come on, an epic 4g is an epic 4g they are not built differently one at a time..if the same rom works different for some people then its because they are doing something different..I'm sure there's a few roms that people in general agree on as one of the most stable, or the most lag free for example..just in general of course..its not that serious to where I have time to flash a new rom everyday, restore all my settings and set ups just to find the "perfect" rom for me

Come on, an epic 4g is an epic 4g they are not built differently one at a time..if the same rom works different for some people then its because they are doing something different..I'm sure there's a few roms that people in general agree on as one of the most stable, or the most lag free for example..just in general of course..its not that serious to where I have time to flash a new rom everyday, restore all my settings and set ups just to find the "perfect" rom for me

Actually no. There are differences based on tolerances on how the die is cut for the processors. Some could handle overclocking to 1.5Ghz and others could go no higher than 1.2Ghz. I have 2 no longer in service and at one time running identical software my computer would only recognize one...reinstalled drivers on computer and both were recognized again, Agreed that in most cases it is something different in software and matching up phone for phone in a purely clean flash should yield same results. Now throw in 3rd party apps and themeing and game over.
Yup you right u right, nuff said! But would cm7 and older roms tend to be more what I'm looking for with speed, less lagging and freezing?

They're pretty much stable and good to go. You will have more space for apps on a Gingerbread rom than a ICS/JellyBean rom. Also you should have less RAM used on Gingerbread than the other types as well.
Really you just have to decide either TouchWiz or CM based. If CM, then which OS type. After that point, it's pretty easy reduce the rom list.
On cm7 for past week or so...PERFECT!! EXACTLY what I needed, thanks to the good response I got
