Is everyone able to access them? When I tap it, it causes android.phone to force close. I hope I didn't miss this issue in the forums, or perhaps it is just me? Anyone else seeing this?
Btw, I'm running deodexed stock MC2, with the Perseus kernel and a couple basic mods, like hotspot and 4 in 1 reboot. Thanks
I am able to access them. I am on deodexed stock MC2 with hotspot, but not perseus kernel or 4 in 1 reboot. I almost never get any force closes. and I almost never reboot my phone. I have 309 hours uptime right now, and i have my phone running at 1.8ghz.

Nice! Yeah, I have no complaints about the phone or the ROM either... they rock! I just have that one issue for some reason. I forgot that I also have the hiddenmenu.apk from a previous ROM to allow for changing prl. But that's about it..
lol yep i have that one too. even though i almost never change my prl from the ugly 2000 prl anymore since sprint sent me an airave finally...

Ah ok lol, we have pretty much the same setup then, except for the kernel. Perhaps later I'll try the stock or another one
i think i was getting some force closes a few months ago when i was trying out other kernels, but i cant remember which ones i tried. Its been so stable and fast for a few months i haven't wanted to do anything to mess it up lol
edit... I got this speed test a few months ago too.

i am on completely stock rooted with as few mods as possible because my AllshareCast dongles don't work if my system says "modified" in about phone/status. i think i am even on stock mc2 recovery right now lol (i had to put stock recovery back on to get the status to say "Normal", even with using triangle away... :-/ oh well though, my phone is happy this way lol the only reason i only have 309 hours uptime right now is becuase almost 2 weeks ago i fell asleep without charging my phone when the battery was low :-/

Wow nice! Yeah, I have gotten speeds like that once or twice, there are one or two particular parts of West L.A. here that are really HOT on Sprint LTE!
Anyway, a quick flash of the Saber kernel didn't fix my mobile network settings force close.... I guess I'll try the stock kernel later and see. If that doesn't fix it, I must be missing something, lol.
I finally figured it out! I started thinking about things that I had either frozen or removed with Titanium Backup, and it was Sprint Connections Optimizer! I removed it because I didn't like how it kept turing on wifi when I was out and about, trying to connect to useless networks. I restored it and just kept it frozen, and now I can go I to my mobile network settings.

Best Rom I have Found is MIUI. But want to have more updates. Would like to know where you get the weekly updates or better yet can some one tell me how to add it to ROM Manager then I can just get the update there.
Here is what I have Tried so far
WarmTwoPointTwo RL5 (Great Rom if you like Sense) Good Job
EivO 2
Ava-froyo
Koni Elite
CM7 w/4G (Really Great Rom) Just don't like the dialer
HTC EVO 4G got First Day. Rooted 2 weeks ago.
More updates? MIUI is updated weekly, which makes it one of if not the most often updated ROM there is (excluding CM nightlies). Anyhoo, I agree with you wholeheartedly that MIUI is the best ROM out there and would like to personally welcome you to the MIUI family Not sure about ROM Manager because I prefer to do everything manually (not to mention Amon > Clockwork). Here is the link to the MIUI forums where you can grab the updates.

Miui
Thanks Downloading now ..... Been trying a bunch of differant kernels as well.
Really like this rom...
Any word if there will be 4g added soon?
MikFroyo is also one of the better (if not best) Sense roms.
I use Miui as well.
No need to make this thread though lol...

I know they are working on adding 4G but I have no clue when it will happen. The problem is that the ROM is actually developed in China and is closed source, the guys who give it to us just do the porting and translation. So it's up to the Chinamen to add the 4G, and since there are no EVOs in China, I'd imagine it's not a top priority for them.
4G is a big deal here in the usa. Is there any want to donate to them to get the job done sooner?
Thanks in advance
Donate to the Chinamen? I'm not sure. I'd post that ? over at the miui-dev forums. Keep in mind, they didn't build the ROM for the USA or even for the EVO. It is made for the N1 and the awesome devs here are the ones porting it. I would just sit tight, we'll have it soon enough.
Ok, this build is pretty much the same. But I love it. Iphone 4. Theme
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
The bulk of the differences between builds are under the hood, but new features do get added all the time. I know there is supposed to be some big UI overhaul coming soon but couldn't tell you when.
Love love MIUI, just wish it had better battery life. Phone is losing 10-12% / hour just sitting idle, wifi or 3g doesn't make much difference. I need to try another kernel for sure, just not sure which one and hoping the update this week (if it gets released for Evo) fixes some things.

Go to miui-dev.com and join in the fun. If you like tweaking, flash the mods and try out some themes.
The mods they have posted are kinda blah.
One bug I found is the time on the text messages is like 6 hours off on the popup and
where it displays all of the threads. When you go in to the message it displays the right time. Little bit of a pause on lock screen.
Overall this is the Best rom I have tried.
Just get 4G and I will never look back.

That's not a bug, it's a setting. Go to the text app, hit menu then scroll to the bottom and hit advanced. Scroll down to where it says Sort SMS by date and make sure that slider is off so it says sort messages by time received locally. That should clear that up.
All the roms except cm have this issue.All ya check your "Battery" in settings and see if "Media Server" process is eating up your battery.It should not be running period,but on my phone it uses 10-27 percent of my battery.
If your phone gets hot,most likely you have this problem.It usually starts after taking some videos or pictures.
Devs been ignoring this annoying problem,so i will throw in $20 to whoever fixes it.Hoping for other people to donate too.This is a serious problem on a lot of ics phones.But my Epic Touch 4g doesnt have that problem and Media Server process never runs on it like it does on my gs3-Thats how it supposed to be.

It might be media provider.apk. possibly secmediascanner.apk or secmediaprovider.apk. I'd try wiping the device completely, redownloading, then reflashing. (You can restore data after since the media scanner/provider is a /system app.)
Edit: on the epic touch, the cause of this was a theme that had included a wrongly compiled media scanner.apk.

I'm on Freegs3 and don't have this showing up in battery at all. Do you have your media syncing to anything? Like an auto-upload to something, dropbox/box/G+/etc?

I always wipe everything 3 times,so that is not the problem.Maybe its just Blazer problem,or maybe i removed some apk that was needed when sliming down my rom.

No one ever wants to hear this, but, if you are having this issue across several ROMs then it's time to consider that perhaps it's an issue with your phone and not the ROMs.
I read you removed 40 apps or so from Blazer. Maybe you removed an app that's needed?

As good as this phone comes out of the box, it can be so much better. I've already put one of the JelllyBean leaks on mine and it's far better than ICS stock. Plus, I love being able to customize the look of it....just my opinion.

Because it's none of sprint's GD business if I want to watch netflix, hbo go, surf the web, or do anything else that I would do anyway, on the bigger screen of my tablet when I'm on the road.
I found another reason to root a "perfectly good phone" last night. For the past few days I was getting strange instances where the phone would seem to freeze up and then I would get an error of "Unfortunately, TestService has stopped. [OK]". I also noticed that I could no longer copy / paste text.
It seems that there is a bug that can cause the clipboard to become full or corrupted. There are only two known ways to correct the problem:
- Factory Reset,
- Empty the clipboard folder (Root required)
I am relieved that a maddening few days is over and my phone is working normally again.

It seems roam control is defunct (based on lack of basic response and updates), but I see no reason reason another developer could not step in and offer a viable replacement.

I wish there would be some headway on this. There's been some change in the past two days that leaves me with 0 signal in my office and, of course, it won't stay on roaming and keeps bouncing back and forth. I don't know if they're having issues at this one tower, or if they have changed the direction of the antenna, or what.
I was looking for this as well to get my phone to force roam in places I got bad service. I had the app on my EVo, and EVo 3D and got spoiled. My service sucks at work and home even with the Airrave. This is what I did and it works for me.
- download this Hidden Menu apk View attachment HiddenMenu_No_Root.apk and install it
- download this zip View attachment Modded_VZW_PRLs.zip
- Once you download the Modded Verizon Zip. Extract the files. Rename the PRL that says 00002 to Test.prl. (Feel free to try other PRL's. Just posting what works for me). Use Move or Copy (My Files stock app, Astro, or whatever you use) to put Test.Prl on root of Sd Card, (not ext card).
- Once its on the root of the SDCard storage turn off your wifi, and your data.
- click on the Hideen Menu app (apk) you downloaded and installed already
- tap launch settings> ##DATA#Menu>View>PRL Write.
- After you tap PRL Write the phone should reboot.
- After reboot Tap Menu>System Settings>About Phone>Status and you should see this below

If it does you are now roaming. If it doesnt. Then try again. It usually works if data and wifi is off. If your looking to go back to Sprint. Just update your PRL the normal way. This wouldnt be considered "on the fly" like the roaming app, (without a reboot) but its fast, close enough and does the job for ME. If this is a repeat of what everyone already knew, ignore this obviously. This is for ppl that may not know or the search button isnt working for you.... I'm using Jelly Bomb btw. I know it doesnt work on AOSP Roms. Dont know about the others.
**I'm sure everyone knows the consequences for roaming too much on Sprint. I actually had my account terminated before for the same. Which in my case worked out. They terminated the contract but not my line, phone number or account so I was able to come back as a new account. May have got lucky. Dunno & dont want to find out. I try to use it just AS NEEDED and go easy on the DATA roaming as well. I monitor my bills just to be sure.. Dont get lazy and leave it roaming all day everyday because your content with having service everywhere like I did. Take it off when in places you have Sprint service.
Hope this helps
So................ I am in the middle of building my MC2 H20 ROM and I will see about putting this in my ROM maybe as a toggle option in the dropdown, and in settings. I will see what time permits. If I finish the rom before this is complete I will focus on this.
So my phone has been having these weird lock ups when it's in deep sleep it will just stay locked on a black screen and I would have to pull the battery. I will list the roms I have used and the trouble shooting I have done. I think it might be something with TW since CM10 by Hakcenter works perfect and does not lock up even after 3 weeks of testing but I can't stand the volume bugs and microphone bugs so I couldn't keep it as a daily.
Trouble shooting
-I have not under volted or over volted any roms
-I have not under or over clocked the roms. They run at 300Mhz Min and 1000Mhz Max
- Switch governors from Pegasu to Smartassv2
- Tried 4 different Roms SHOStock v1.0 and v1.1, Project X 3.3, 3.4 and 3.6, Recalked in JB Latest Deodex, Jellyverse Latest
- I am NOT running any lockscreens
- Rotation setting is always set to manual aka auto rotation is off
- Latest PRL for Metro PCS
- Tried 3 Diff kernels for TW Agats Based and avoided 1.4.0 due to bugs
- Tried installing apps one by one painstakingly slow and they're not the culprits
- I am not running DS Powersaver
-Agats 1.3 and 1.4.2F Kernel
How do you recognize its locked up? Trying to power on? Does it show any light or flicker? Or just doesn't come on when hitting power button?
Mine I thought was locking up and such and it was my power button choosing when to respond
That's my 2 Cents lol
Hope you get it situated brother

The screen wont turn on from the power button but the power button works flawlessly when it doesn't lock up. I apply about 60-70% of the button down and it will unlock so the button is on point.
I have been through 2 phones with power buttons and the first time as you (not saying your ISN'T locking g up) I thought mine was locking up but it was the power button... So I had to plug it into a charger to power it on and then unlock.... Then ofcourse somebody introduce to me the app gravity that made me not need it.... Atleast until I got a new one

Did you try sxtp's kernal 0.5? I have been using that one and I get 1/10th the lockups I was getting with the ones cooked into the roms.
IMO, when you root and change roms, you have to expect a few lockups every now and then. Just part of the game with my phone.

I never once experienced a lock up like these prior to jellybean roms. I'm thinking it's something to do with TW since CM with JB 4.2.2 works flawlessly.
I thought I saw you post in the CM thread you were getting lockups with it too?

That CM thread i just offered advice to others to avoid lockups from what I've read. I'm pretty sure I didn't post it was happening on CM though.
Edit: Oh I did on the nightlies but that was dirty flashing the Official over the gentlemen's CM.
I'm the exact opposite, on TW roms no lockups ever, but on CM I always get 1 or 2 a day guaranteed.

Back up device to you're PC and Odin gb27 rooted full restore one click...
I think a clean slate would help...
Also...I would imagine , since you're a knowledgeable member , that you wipe data,cache,dalvik..when flashing. But do you ever go in and format the system...you can actually format everything but sdcards..and be alright. I never do. I just format the system. So nothing gets left behind.
Just my thoughts...on what I would do in this situation..good luck. Let me know how it goes.

Yes sir I've done all those. I even had to do the whole GB27 rooted full restore a few times not due to this problem but due to the Yellow triangle issue.

Hmmm...I'm stumped...I'll try looking around, maybe I'll see something that we've all missed while searching. But that is a puzzler..

I agree, I've been looking around too but I keep stumbling upon the same types of replies. It's usually about messing with the cpu, a different lock screen or rogue app.

Been running CM10.1 The gentlemen's edition and have not had a single lock at all.
Locked up twice since flashing a TW rom. Does anyone know anything that could be causing this? What exactly is the google services glitch that i hear can cause this on some phones?

What kernel are you running? I know some people have problems with Agat's v1.4.2 and v1.3 seems to work better for them.

It happens on both 1.3 and 1.4.2F. I really can't seem to figure out what is causing it and i don't think a logcat will actually show anything.

So your device is unresponsive, even when plugging in a charger? If this is the case, you may not even be able to grab a logcat. I would say this definitely sounds like a kernel issue, but on all those different versions... doesn't lead me to believe that's the case. And this only happens on TW based roms? Multiple Roms by multiple developers... Do they all include the AIO mod? I ran into major issues placing my theme into the latest AIO.
