[ROM][Updated 5-28-12]MazWoz-EVO ICS ROM BETA 6

If you don't need the stuff in the OP for work, then yes, it's that stable. I loved it when I was running it a couple weeks ago.
Just flashed B5 and Mason kernal, and not a single random reboot yet which is unheard of on my evo. Every time if have flashed a ROM in the past, I always go through a couple boots before everything is working fairly stable. Using titanium right now to restore everything, but another awesome release by Maz. I am gald you didn't release early, just to get it out when you origionally thought. The wait was worth it. I need a stable ROM, and this puts other ROMs to shame in that sense. Thanks again MAZ.

What Mason kernel did you use? I flashed just the SBC one and I think my phone has been a little slower with no improvment in battery from what I can tell. Since I flashed beta 5 last night, my phone is roaming a lot more and every time I reset my phone, when it first comes on I always get a message saying Apex stopped working. I click ok and it comes right back on, but these are problems I never had with 4.0 or 4.7. I'm sure the roaming is probably hurting my battery performance too. I just wonder if this Mason kernel is messing with my phone or performance??

The same kernal, 1.4SBC. I am not having any problems with roaming, but my APEX does say the same thing every time I reboot and then it works fine. I am not seeing much speed improvement, but everything seems much more stable. I haven't been using it long enough to know about the battery life, but it seems to be holding a pretty strong charge even with me playing with it constantly and downloading stuff. Totally honest, so far, this is the most stable release yet. I have not had one forclose on anything with the exception of the APEX error whenever I reboot. Awesome job MAZ.
make sure to get a full charge and drain .. give the kernel a day or two to settle in .. im getting really good batt life running maz and sbc mason and was on decks with the set up...
OK will do. I will let it go a few days and see how it goes. I might even try some different radio updates.

Anyone seeing a red border flash by as soon as Chrome opens? Doesnt really interfere but seems to bother everyone I show off how fast the browser is
Yup.

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been replying. I have been in the travel phase of my deployment. I will be out for a couple days before I can get back on. Good luck and I will try to get back to you guys as soon as possible. If it is important drop me a PM and that way I cannot miss it in the threads.
Again I am glad everyone likes my work.
I also wanted to say thanks to everyone that has been donating. Every little bit helps and keeps me motivated to do a good job. Again thanks.

OK, so I flashed tis last night and was very impressed with it. I Smurfed the phone too and saw I am having issues with it so I unsmurfed.
This morning I'm stuck in a boot loop, any ideas?
Looks like a ROM I would wanna stick with for awhile, but don't want any issues as I use my phone for business.
In process of reflashing now

used B5 since it dropped as my daily, and i am yet to have a reboot, most stable ICS for me and I used AOKP, deck, evervolv, gummy...
Yes I admit I am flashoholic!
The build has smurf settings built in. I'm not sure why it broke when you un-smurfed. Hopefully you don't have any more issues

What are you talking about? I'm a dev for my own ROM and still flash everyone else's. I'm a flashoholic, I can't go a couple days without flashing. Yay for boot manager.
As I have previously posted, I have tried all of those ROMs and B5 is by far the most stable. I still have yet to force close on anything with the only exception being when I first boot up, APEX gives me an error, but then it works perfectly. That only started happening after I flashed the Mason kernal. Maz could almost call this non beta once he irons out the few quirks it has. I don't know if it's the Mason SBC kernal, or Maz's beta, but the battery life is killer. I charged it yesterday morning, flashed B5, downloaded titanium, restored all my apps, downloaded a few updates, made a 20 minute call on my BT headset, played about 30 minutes of music on speakerphone, and have been playing with the settings and downloading new wallpaper for over an hour and I still have about 1/4 my battery without ever plugging it in. Any other ROM, my Sh_t would have been dead 15 hours ago. I have a standard battery.
I'm on b5 smurfed out what problems were you having .. might can help

16thlinx,
I'm not sure exactly what your problem is. If I'm not learning and improving fast enough for you, by all means, teach me how to do it better. If my "tweaks" are not good enough, again show me how to do better. I implore you to learn this. It takes time, energy and mistakes.
I am also a real programmer. I develop software for the US Air Force. Over the last year I have written over 200,000 lines of code just for the Air Force. If you count what I have done off duty, I have probably put up more time, and text just in programming than you have flashing your phone.
Just because I am new to developing ROMs, doesn't mean I am a complete "noob" when it comes to programming/writing code/or development in general. I am learning what it takes to develop for Android. It is a separate beast.
Yes, if you want better than what I can offer at the moment, then you need to go with someone who has more time. If you think that my ROM is going backwards, then obviously you have not used too many ICS ROMs.
If you bash everyone that is just starting out, saying that they are not good enough, then you will never get GOOD ROMs. You will get nothing but continuous tweaks and moving of apk files. I have already started de-compiling some open source apks and trying to find some of the issues. I am looking at kernel development. I am looking into building from source. I don't think anyone in here can say they learned all of this in a day, or a week. Most people it takes months to learn how to build, develop and maintain a new operating system. If my "progress" is too un-progressive for you, that is fine. Don't talk trash because it's not good enough. Tell me what you would like "fixed" or changed, and I will work on it. OR, fix it yourself and stop trying to tear other people down.
Any further complaints, issues, or tear downs should be sent to me in a PM and not publicly on a thread where other people have enjoyed my work.
Thank you and have a nice day.16
I'm just glad that someone finally trusted me enough to download and flash. It did get off to a bad start. I should have put more info to start with. That was my fault. I really hope you guys like it. If you do, please click the thanks.11Ok guys I am gonna say this once and once only. If it is not about the roms development then dont post it.
Arguing about if it is or is not development is pointless. Most Developers start out by theming a rom and work from there.
If you think you can do better then by all means go ahead but unless you can do it yourself you have no room to talk about the work others do.
Now I really hope I got my point across. For those that dont know me let me let you in on something. I only give one warning (This is it) and then it is a trip to bansville.10
I understand, just please remember, that even though someone just "themed" a ROM, it doesn't mean they aren't learning. Everyone has to start somewhere. Please consider how your words can stop production of someone who could potentially fix all of your problems/make the best ROM you have ever used.
I have already caught enough flak/ been flamed enough on this thread. Considered giving up the first few days, but if I continue to get posts like this, I will not continue, I will quit and people can lose one more dev because someone decided to assume instead of think.
You have the potential to stop progress. You also have the potential to do it yourself. If that is what you want, continue down your current path. If not, then respect the people who are still working hard to learn this and bring you something new/better/faster.
