Where is that thing at? I was looking around and couldn't even find it.

I'm currently reinstalling the OTA and will confirm that Wi-Fi works after initially applying it. If it does, I'll try pulling the Wi-Fi module directly from the ROM, and then add it to the rooted zip.
Cool hopefully it works. Thanks Captain.

PS Sprint optimizer is under applications then all this is where you can disable it.

No good. I even tried taking the original boot.img combined with the updated module, and it's still getting stuck. It did work fine when I applied the OTA directly, too.

Looks like I'll need to look into this further later. Maybe someone else will figure it out in the meantime and release a better (fixed) version.

EDIT: Not even flashing a different kernel fixes it . . . this can't be good :rolleyes:. I'm really going to have to go back and rebuild it from scratch to figure out at what point Wi-Fi gets broken. This will take some time :(.

Bummer I wonder if Sprint threw something into this update to mess it up?

I'm sure it's just me. I don't really know that much and am still a novice at cooking ROMs with Android Kitchen. I at least wanted to get this out there for the community so that it could start to be incorporated into custom ROMs, etc. But perhaps my inexperience won't even allow that :eek:.

Like I said, I'll keep at it as I have opportunity. Hopefully it won't be too difficult to fix.

Thanks for your work and effort. Looking forward to seeing this. My girl was just talking about her current rom is not working right and i was looking for something new to flash. Since she likes the stock rom look n feel, this would be perfect!

I reloaded this Rom and when I went to use titanium backup it said I didn't have root. Not sure if this is useful info.

I had this issue too, but going into Superuser and changing the response to automatically allow got it working. It's the only app I had that issue with. It also says that Android Market isn't installed for some reason? Haven't figured that out yet either. So I have a couple of things to look into.

Nice. i d/l'ed the ruu, but never got around to booting up linux and making the stock root rom. So, nice.
If you get around to it, I'm sure the community wouldn't mind a working version. I'm going to strip all the modifications out of this one and see if it actually works. If not, then I probably did something wrong.

after reading the 2nd page, seems ur having wifi issues. if u check the last stock rom i posted, it also had this issue. I cant really remember what i did but i remember it was an easy fix, i think all i did was re grab the ota and root. I can probably check it out later on today since its friday if u havent fixed it by then. I'm a little rusty, but i believe i still remember the steps to do it.

Pm me if u have any questions, i have a the xda app, so ill be able to reply faster.

Edit: ok, i read over my thread, and i was having bootloops but the problem was connected to the wifi. For my case it was just bad files. i suspect the same here, i would first just take the ota and root it again, just to confirm its not just a bad rom.

I'm about to work on it now. I think I know where I went wrong, so I'll keep everyone posted.

NOTE: It appears this may also be affecting 4G, so I'll look into that as well.

    UPDATE 17-MAY-2013 - Just uploaded a deodexed copy of the latest OTA-based ROM. Other than being deodexed, it's identical to the Odex version.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    UPDATE 18-FEBRUARY-2013 - After a long hiatus, HTC released an OTA which apparently updates some security. There was also a radio update (which you can get to by clicking the radio number in my sig). Right now I'm just posting the base as-is, with the only changes being root and busybox added. I didn't deodex the ROM or update any of the apps (which are COMPLETELY outdated). If I have time, I'll consider doing more, but I wanted to at least get the base out there for others to use. So, please do ;).

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    UPDATE 11-AUGUST-2012 - Version 2.3 released! Mostly bugfixes. See Changelog and download links in Post #2!

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    UPDATE 29-JULY-2012 - Version 2.2 released! See Changelog and download links in Post #2!

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    UPDATE 27-JULY-2012 - Version 2.1 released! Only change from 2.01 is the addition of the percentage battery mod, as pictured here.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    UPDATE 26-JULY-2012 - Version 2 released! Big Change Log can be found in Post #2. I will probably be doing another quick, minor update, because I forgot to update Busybox to the latest version. Expect that in a few minutes.
    UPDATE #2: DONE! Link in Post #2 updated to reflect latest version (2.01). If you already downloaded v2, you should still be fine.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    UPDATE 23-JULY-2012 - Due to several requests, I have created a "more" stock version of ROM, with only the following modifications:

    Rooted
    Busybox included
    Zipaligned APKs
    Wireless N enabled
    Odexed & Deodexed Versions

    Download Links in Post #2.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    UPDATE 30-MAY-2012 - Just extracted the Kernel from this OTA update. Links to Stock & Wireless N modded versions can be found in Post #2.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Original Post:

    I downloaded and posted the OTA here, so I figured I'd try my hand at putting together a stock rooted version of it (since the initial unrooted version was giving my device problems).

    So, this is my first thread here in EVO 4G Development (so go easy on me!!), and while it's not really development per se (it's not like I built any of this stuff), it is a ROM, and this is apparently where ROMs go :rolleyes:.

    So, on to the goods:

    Stock ROM (odex)
    Software Version: 5.07.651.1
    Busybox included
    Zipaligned
    a2sd enabled (if SD card is partitioned)
    Wireless N enabled
    Moved most Bloat & Play Store apps to /data for easy uninstallation (except Quick Search)
    Updated all Play Store apps to latest versions
    Removed Sprint NFL (no longer available from Sprint)
    Talk updated to version with working Video Chat
    Native Screenshot added in

    Everything else is stock!

    Download links in Post #2.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    UPDATE 5/26/2012 - Sprint TV Widget removed (new app includes widget)

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    UPDATE 5/25/2012 - Wi-Fi & 4G connect issue fixed!

    Other Changes:
    Updated Busybox to latest version (1.20.0)
    a2sd updated to latest version (phone will reboot twice after initial flash)

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    UPDATE:

    So, I re-did everything. I had a working OTA (both WiFi and 4G connected fine), and dumped the ROM from the device. I can only assume something is happening during the dumping process, as I still cannot get WiFi and 4G to connect, after rebuilding it from the dump.

    I'm trying one last time right now to get everything working, but I'm not very optimistic at this point :rolleyes:.

    Hopefully someone with more knowledge can help out if this last attempt fails.

    EDIT: Just as I suspected, this last attempt has also failed. Maybe NinjaWolf can get us a working version. Otherwise, once the RUU leaks, it should be really easy to do. I'll do it then, unless someone beats me to it.

    EDIT 2: FIXED IT!!!! The updater-script was missing some symlinks. It seems the newest version of Android Kitchen neglected to put some stuff in there :confused:. At any rate, I used one from a working ROM, and now Wi-Fi and 4G connect! Proof below:

    Uploading fixed version immediately! :D

    New versions are up! Get the quick scoop in the OP, and full change log in Post #2, along with the Download links.

    Enjoy! :D

    P.S. I did a complete re-org of the first two posts. Hopefully it'll be a little more organized now.

    P.P.S. Updated download links (v2.01) now live. Busybox in ROM now updated to 1.20.2.

    hey, nice work. Ive been working on a personal rom for myself using this as a base, but after a few more tweaks Im thinking of posting it up here. Is it find to use your rom as a base? Ill post a link to here.
    It's absolutely fine to use this as a base - that's why I put it together and posted it here ;).

    I only ask/hope that you would offer credit for the base in your thread. Besides that, please, share! That's what the community here is all about! :)
