I'm not really sure if it violates any kind of xda stuff, so dont shoot the messenger. But a good idea for this would be to add some game emulators. nesoid, snesois, gensoid for example. rom leecher is pretty good at finding games as well. As far as I know you can use any game that is no longer being retailed. As for emulators, they are 100% legal and all those I listed are freeware. Just a suggestion to make this a bit better and functional.

bad idea.....if you want to pirate roms and play games you never played for then you do it yourself and not force the op to do illegal stuff.

ya'll better wish me luck yo.....

If you get the slideme market place you can download the emulators from there, only the n64 one costs money.. as for roms just find torrents

It removes the phone functions and its to be used on retired evos or if you got an evo off ebay with a bad esn.. no phone, messaging, anything.. just wifi, media, and all that

By chance, is this compatible with a2sd? I use my old Evo for games, emails and such. I still have 100+ apps on it.

This is definitely unique,nice thinking brother.

roids87 · Aug 25, 2012

Excellent idea, I'll keep in touch with any bugs. This is exactly what I use my og EVO for ever since I picked up the LTE.

It looks good, but if you could do something similar with a gb rom so my mom can use this as a minitablet and Skype her friends

mmm ill look into it, i can't make any guarantees of the success rate though.. if we try with Sense i highly highly doubt it will happen because of the framework dependencies, buuut i can see if the latest cm7 would handle it without fussy fc's and whatnot when i have a chance to

The emulators are FREEWARE. They are perfectly legal. As for games, once again, pretty sure they are fine to use as long as they aren't retailed by the original company any more.

My point about xda is that I don't know what is ok to put in the roms themselves, I'm not a dev. Just a guy with good idea...

ElfinJNoty · Aug 25, 2012

Back when I got my Gnex... one of the first ROMs I installed on it was the BlackIce 40.5. Evo owners have had a port for a while now and I've been running that on the Evo while moving on to Baked BlackBean on the Gnex.

Soon as the Evo was deactivated I had the same idea of using it strictly as a media device. I striped down the black ice ROM quite a bit and removed anything network related to reduce battery drain. With an extended battery and screen off I left the evo playing music accidentally in my luggage during a recent trip to Dallas for 4 days while visiting family. WiFi was on and music playing, after 4 days I still had 8 percent battery.

You've got a great idea here... encourage starting from an ICS aokp base for optimal settings and theming options. Running a DPI of 180 also makes things look slightly better. You can use an app such as Titanium to freeze things first before removing to ensure there are no app dependencies prior to removing them. Truly, u can just disable mobile data and edit the build prop to disable network communications on any existing ROM. WiFi access is a must to implement this as a true mini tablet option. I was considering this all with a paranoid android port but gave up on the idea as it hasn't been a priority for me.

Good ambition my friend, I will keep an eye on this and I am available to test anything for ya... at least compare it to my personal set up to see if there are improvements.

Check build prop property

ro.cdma.home.operator.alpha
Change value from "sprint" to whatever you want it to say instead of sprint or no network.

Can't remember if that was the right adjustment, don't have my evo in front of me, that's just off memory

ill give that build prop tweak a look and definitely the 180dpi mod

thank you for that idea

i remember when i first flashed aokp i had problems with my play store connecting via wifi any even tethering off my one s and had to do some build prop tweak that was oddly enough gsm tagged.. these lines were what caused my headaches

Code:

gsm.sim.operator.numeric = 0
gsm.sim.operator.alpha = 0
gsm.sim.operator.iso-country = 0

and then when changed it to

Code:

gsm.sim.operator.numeric = 310120
gsm.sim.operator.alpha = Sprint
gsm.sim.operator.iso-country = US

and reboot gave me my play store back way after i first took my evo out of the drawer

Setup Fix (Temporarily)

if anyone had gotten stuck in the setup wizard with a fc message after hitting Next on the screen where you put in your name

Unfortunately, Google Account Manager Has Stopped"

and then it looped you back to the Location Consent screen and couldn't get out of that..

i've attached a fix zip for that issue

just add your google account in the play store and it should be all good for now

Kreatur3 · Aug 26, 2012

Oh how I wish...

I wish someone, on the evo 3d forum, would make something like this. A small part of the screen doesn't respond to touch and would love to use it as a media device lol.

I know what I'm using my evo for after I replace it.

evodev · Aug 26, 2012

when i upgrade later this year I will definitely check this out.
edit: I gave you a thanks, and also I voted on this thread and boosted it to 3 stars, since a hater (only one to vote i guess) gave it a 1 star.

I could try and blind build it but I wouldn't be able to test it prior to release as I don't have a 3d

If you got that bored I'd be more than happy to test. Its my dead device anyway so wouldn't matter if something didn't work right.
