EVO 4G auto shutting off & not turning on - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey. Over the last couple of days my evo has been automatically shutting off and im not able to turn it on unless I do a battery pull first. I was running MIUI 1.12.9 with tiamat and switched over to cm7. 1 with tiamat. Happened on both roms with same kernel. Swapped my extended battery back to stock and still happened. Has this happened to anybody else?

This has happened to me before. I was using an alpha build however. Try flashing CM 7.2. It is in a thread called "latest cm nightly". It has never given me trouble using timat 3.3.7!

what troubles me is I ran 7.1 for months with no issues and had been running miui for about 3 weeks with no issues and all of a sudden this starts happening.

Been running Fresh 3.1.0.1 since it launched, but I'm ready for a change. I'm heading to either Baked Snack or DC. Just put DC on my wife's Hero, and it reminded me of how much I liked it before.
Of course, the real question is, which kernel are we using?
Latest CM6 nightly

Im running a slightly modified version of SteelH's stock deodexed Froyo with Netarchy's 4.1.9 kernel. Run's smooth as butter, OCs like a champ and the battery life just keeps getting better and better.
CM6 8/25. there seems to be something up with 8/26

[Q] CM7 ROM or EI22 ROMs

Just curious, I've been using the CM7 ROM since the last update. I want to try a EI22 ROM but want to know if the bugs and other problems are worth it. this CM7 ROM I have been using had been the best ROM I ever installed, no issues, my wifi always works, GPS, no reboots. The only small issue I have is no charging when the phone is off.
Just want a few opinions from people who went from CM7 to EI22 roms.

Best ROM for me, hands down! I installed since 10/22 release, never had to reflash or a random reboot.
I've read a few comments about the new EI22 ROMs, but nothing to really motivate me to even try them out.

CM7 all day every day!! Especially now that CM7 has been updated on 11/24 its flawless (well at least on my phone). It doesn't have 4g but who needs that anyways. Anytime I need fast dl speeds I'm always on wifi.

but how can i record a video on CM7, the recorder app automatically stop each time I press the record button. any ideas?
you cant record videos on cm7 yet. its an alpha staged rom. the ei22 builds right now are just as.good if not better as of right now. I get no fc's on cleangb. no reboots, no stability issues and also full features.

Reason it freezes is because you need a hboot higher then eng .076

Well just checked my phone and after a fresh install it says its running anthrax already
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I just started using Anthrax so I can't really speak for it. My go to kernel is the Evo 4g Freedom-v0.9. I would link it... but XDA doesn't trust me yet . You can search the EVO forum or find it in the stickied Detailed ROM Wiki.
I second Freedom.
Freedom v9 is an amazing kernel, i am using the Energy rom, which comes with chopsuey baked in. I recently switched to the anthrax v004 kernel, and my rom is much snappier, and the my battery life almost doubled! my vote is for anthrax!
Im running anthrax with SET CPU set to 245/1036 and screen off profile 245/245 and interactiveX. Been off the charger since 8AM and am at 70% left. considering 10% is wasted when you take it off the charger right away, this isnt too bad...
Anthrax totally!

MikRom thread - Anthrax kernel
This thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1038967&page=1613)
will NOT let me reply due to lack of number of posts (very frustrating, but a bit understandable) but I was inquiring about the Anthrax kernel. I'm currently running More Freedom v0.9, and it's slowed down or become sluggish lately. I'm running MikG v2.5.
My two questions are:
will this Anthrax kernel help?
If so, does it also have Bluetooth HID capability? I have a new keyboard and finding a driver for Android is about impossible.
AND, I guess a third. Assuming it helps, how can I get it or where I can download?
Please apprise me if possible!
Thanks!
I think this may have something to do with your h boot. Scope out caulkins thread on radios, wimax, etc. Hope this helps

Thanks. However, I should have noted that this ran pretty well for a while. I've ordered new batteries that are on the way, thinking that the battery might be the culprit. It seems to wane quickly nowadays.
I did not want to leave my phone with the Sprint tech for 1.5 hours to pore through my phone while he did a diagnostics test. I just didn't feel comfortable doing that. He'd assuredly come back and tell me the phone was rooted, blah blah blah, warranty voided, nothing he could do and that's the reason it was sluggish.
After I moved to this it worked really well for about 3-4 months. The last two months it runs out of memory and the battery fades quickly. The only thing I can really point to perhaps is Tweetcaster. Seems to be a big drain on everything and there's no clean exit command for it, unlike other apps, so it runs all the friggin' time if you instantiate it.
As for Anthrax kernels, I've heard some people recommend "test 9".
Do most of you here recommend that as well?
I really need someone to pm me the anthrax kernel.
The test 9 version works amazing on my phone. I'm running mikg*3. 0

Before flashing the anthrax kernel you should wipe dalvik-cache, flash kernel, wipe dalvik-cache again, reboot, let phone sit 10 minutes, and then reboot again. Search xda for the kernel install information to make sure that you are installing it correctly. It's the best for my evo thus far and I have had no problems. It's baked into the shooter E3D rom. Try it, you won't be disappointed.

CM9

IS there a cm9 build with no sod?

I've had problems with SOD even on the reloaded CM9. It wasn't terrible, but it happened every once in a while. No HWA sucks too.

Major battery drain on Calks E4GT 1.6 ?

I flashed calks 1.6 the other day and noticed big battery drain. I reflashed today just to make sure. Drains about 20% an hour in my pocket. As soon as I start using it, it drains so fast i can watch the percent countdown lol. It dropped 20% posting this. Its also charging weird. When I plugged it in it was at 65% and in 20 min it was full. This is very odd because I used this rom many times and it had great battery life. Anyone else experience anything like this on their E4GT ?

Must be a bad battery, how long have you have your battery? also have you removed battery stats?
Try using phone at maxxed out power until it drops to 0% then recharge battery until full, I recommend overnight.
And get back to me...
I don't think its the battery unless it went bad overnight lol. It was fine the other day. Something weird happened a few weeks ago i dont know if it has anything to do with this but I flashed a rom that I had flashed before many times (phantoms blazer ics) and it aborted the install. I reset my phone with sfhubs one-click , formatted it,
And tried flashing a new rom and same thing. I posted about it in Q&A and no one really helped out too much. I tried everything new downloads, new kernels you name it I tried it. And it still happened, everything I tried, to flash got aborted on el26. It was so odd cause it was doing it to old downloaded roms and the el26 I've been using since ics . I could flash a gb rom in el29 but as soon as a flashed el26 and tried flashing something it would happen again. The only thing that would flash successfully is calks format all (every time)So I got frustrated, and i stayed on stock rooted el29 for a week or 2 since no one would help. The other day I figured id try again off a fresh reset and new downloads, and it went fine, I flashed a few roms but decided to go back to calks 1.6 . And now the battery issue ? Should I wipe battery stats? I don't really know what that does. Btw I reflashed and it didn't solve anything, still draining. I will try running it down and charging overnight. Any other suggestions?

Btw I've had this phone with the same battery for about 5 months now
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
Did you flash back to gb ?
Or flash another Rom but imo its probably due to an app installed that's not ready for ics
only thing I can think of is I downloaded the T.5.3.0.32 VVM for ICS. The one I downloaded is supposed to safe for ICS. You think that could be draining my battery?

Time to upgrade to a released rom....
Calk's 1.6 is based on old, unreleased code and isn't supported. Calkulin has moved on and no longer dev'ing for this phone.
I would like to but I liked that rom for its stability and battery life, but my question is why is my battery life bad now. Ive ran this same rom (same download) before and it was great. Why the bad battery life all of a sudden?
