So i know theres a lot of you guys out there that have tossed yall's evos into a drawer since moving onto other devices like the LTEvo and such.. myself included.. i jumped ship and got myself a One S and soon to be Galaxy Nexus!
But i figured why just let it be forgotten about? Right?
So with that in mind I bring to you guys a rom that fits right into said category and practically converts your evo into a media device :)

about.png

My mission is simple... turn our devices, from what used to be a phone, into a full-fledged android media player!
Its still a WIP and ive got a few more things to add/remove but all in all its been running for a week or so now now with no problems at all :D

features.png

This has been rebased off JMZTaylor's final CM9 build :)
Awesome BEATS v4 for sound enhancement (thanks ...Awesome... for giving me the green light on this :D)
Walkman from Xperia T (its much prettier! Rizal Lovins is the man of the hour for getting this gem ported over :D)
Google Now :D :D :D (searches work now when typing and having walkman in the list of searchable items!)
Xperia goodies! Launcher with Walkman widget, Notes with respective widget, Clocks, and Weather widget!
Mapped themes button in settings to open Xperia Launcher settings (man that was a pain in the membrane)


A themed SystemUI i did myself :D including new pull down backgrounds, center clock, battery icons and when you switch to percent it shows a percent sign and will turn green when charging ;)

Easter egg: after installing the rom, go delete your cache and dalvik cache through recovery and reboot for some lulz!

Battery is continuously getting better since I've removed the RIL libs and a bin file to prevent the phone from knowing what to do with the radios
Mason 15 kernel baked in :D (the default governor is ok but OCing to 1152mhz and setting gov to Wheatley gives great performance)

Heavy debloated system
Removed as many traces as i could find of access to phone such as:
Signal bars (wifi and bluetooth still show)
No service is finally gone and so are the Emergency call things on secure lock screens
Dialer, contacts, messaging, calendar, email, and many others
Baseband setting and device info, cmstats, and system update (it would FC so i killed it :good:)
if you find anything let me know in a PM or in this thread


todo.png

Remove language packs to lighten up the rom size
Remove unnecessary toggles and more useless/conflicting entries from settings and things like airplane mode from power menu
Theme, theme, theme
Fix anything else that may arise over time or that other people may notice
Follow up with any personal requests from users if time permits

installation.png

You should be either s-off or Htc-dev UNLOCKED s-on to with custom recovery to install (i use amon-ra 2.3)

if s-off use these steps to install...
1) download zip
2) throw onto root of sdcard and take the PC36IMG.zip off if you have one
3) boot into recovery by turning off and and holding vol-down + power buttons and once in bootloader, vol-down to RECOVERY and choose it
3) wipe data, dalvik, system, and boot
4) flash zip from sd
5) reboot and allow rom about 30 minutes or so to settle in :D

if UNLOCKED s-on use these steps to install... (this is the WINDOZE way!)

1) download zip and take out the boot.img file and put it into the folder with fastboot.exe
2) throw onto root of sdcard and take the PC36IMG.zip off if you have one
3) boot into recovery by turning off and and holding vol-down + power buttons and once in bootloader choose FASTBOOT
4) once FASTBOOT USB appears type (hitting enter after typing each line)

Code:
fastboot devices
fastboot flash boot boot.img
5) then choose HBOOT and vol-down to RECOVERY and choose it
3) wipe data, dalvik, system only NOT boot!
4) flash zip from sd
5) reboot and allow rom about 30 minutes or so to settle in :D

I was actually thinking about making something similar to this for myself. I don't use network data at all just a wifi hotspot device that I carry with me. This would be perfect for me... if I still had my OG EVO. I lost it last night while drunk at a bar :(

Edit: FOUND IT!!!! Downloading right now and will test tonight. I pretty much run all Roms with airplane mode on so I am excited to give this a try. I just wish ICS had HDMI that is all that is missing for a true Media Device

This is a great, practical use for our "old" Evos! Perfect for at the gym, airplane, etc. Even though I haven't upgraded to a new phone yet, I'll definitely keep this rom in mind for when I do.

    hai everyone! im still alive :p sorry its been so quiet from me, im actually working on a build now as i type this :p

    one main drawback was that i rebased the rom so i kinda had to port everything i had previously and start over *facepalm*
    the new base is deck's ics...

    i should have rc2 popping out soon but this includes the most recent walkman from xperia T that looks way prettier and more features work :D

    now lets see if this prick boots :p

    you guys can mirror this all you want :) i dont know why mediafire and dropbox are being douchey but theyre very persistent about it... anywho, im gonna be checking out that viper4 audio mod soon! i just got an fii0 e7 headphone amp and it turned a pair of $20 sennheiser headphones that came with a guitar processor into just as awesome sounding as my friends $300 studio beats and made my bose ie2's just damn incredible through my rockboxed ipod classic haha so i'll be able to test the sound all crazy thoroughly :p

    and I Like Soup, thank you very very much for the donation, i honestly never thought at all that i would get a donation as this is kind of a spare time hobby, but all the positive feedback and ideas from the community and such really makes me feel like im actually doing something productive :D plus you bought me a pack of smokes haha you totally rock my friend!

    and an update on whats been going on in uberville, work is finally gonna chill out a bit so ill have more time to do this and i will be ordering an actual pc within a month or so which will prevent me from having to work on this laptop that holds no charge and has a usb fan that my friend rigged onto it cuz the fan on the motherboard failed and it would quickly overheat and emergency shutdown hahaha!

    I got RC2 up in the OP

    HERE as well if yall jump to the end :p

    A few changes :p all mentioned in the OP

    Good:
    New base which is Decks PreBeta 25 :)
    Lastest Walkman :D
    Xperia Launcher with Walkman Widget (finally)
    Mason 15 kernel!
    Removed the RIL libs and it seems to have effectively killed the radio! (I had the device in my pocket at work for about 5 hours not doing anything and the battery was at 99% still bahahahaha)

    Not-So Good:
    Finally debunked the removal of most unnecessary settings but theres more i need to remove :p
    Bluetooth audio randomly stutters (this could have been prevalent before but i didnt get my BT speaker til after nit-picking rc2)
    But through headphones / aux everything is fine :confused: and as for dock.. i have no idea :p

    Lemme know your thoughts guys!
