Wheatley is the governor. I believe it was based on 'ondemand' but dont hold me accountable. It'll make your phone run fast, but is also battery-friendly

SIO is a scheduler, this one is voted he best because it makes your files secure, and allows faster write speed. If you want to change to these settings, I recommend the app 'NoFrills CPU' it is free on the Play Store

I didn't even think to test this. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I'll look into it.

Update I used HDMwIn and it worked just fine. My HDMI monitor was showing me the exact same thing as my phone. I tried both portrait and landscape. I played a video. It all seemed to work without a hitch. Is there some other method I should be testing?

how did you get it to work?? the first time i tried it, my phone read the cabel but the second time it didnt and just froze my phone and had to reboot. what i did was first startt the app then plug the phone and tv in(tv first then to the phone)..

I plugged in the cable first with my monitor in DVI mode. I started HDMwIn and glanced at the settings. I pressed the enable button, switched the monitor over to HDMI, and it was there. I had actually never tried HDMI on my phone before, so that was kinda cool. I was glad to see it worked so easily. Kudos to Team Win.

My general rule of thumb with these sort of things is that the device that's doing the output (e.g., evo) should be sending output through the cable before turning on (or switching over) the input device (e.g., monitor, tv). Basically, I don't like to have the input device looking at an empty signal. I don't know if there's any technical merit to this but it's always worked for me. I adopted this method after my TV kept going, "Welp, there's no signal here so I'm just gonna switch back to the cable box" whenever I'd try switching over to PS3 before turning on the PS3. lol

The version that he linked is both FSO (File Synchronization Off) and SBC (Smart Battery Control).

If you want another version, you can get them here: http://atyoung.blogspot.com/

The following thread is an excellent resource for this stuff.

That shouldn't really matter. It's CM7-based and uses CM drivers. The changes presented by Lewa are mostly cosmetic, far abstracted from minor hardware differences. The meat and potatoes of porting it is the process of going from GSM to CDMA, but again CM7 offers everything necessary to do that quite easily. If there was some sort of distinction to be made between 004 and 003, then it would be at a much lower abstraction layer, more directly associated with CM7 (not Lewa). But to answer your question, I only tested on 003.

I appreciate your quick and descriptive response. I took a gamble and installed your ROM and I have to say, so far it's kicking all the others asses as far as performance is concerned. Battery life also seems to be pretty good compared to most roms I've installed over the last 2 years since I've has this phone. You got a good thing going here. You have my support.

Let the ROM 'settle' and you'll be blown away.

cmf04 · Jun 16, 2012

Loving the rom so far, I have been using it for the last few days..pretty solid. I use Savagedzen 2.2.1 kernel and get awesome battery life.

Two things I noticed are:
1. Call waiting doesn't show who is calling.
2. The messaging app doesn't show the names and pictures of the contacts in the individual thread for each.

Keep up the excellent work.

Will you post the lock screen so I can test this?

What I.do is click the themes app, then hit customize. I select the lockscreen option and I downloaded the five rings and ICS 4.0 lockscreens.it'll download and I can apply it, but once the the screens turns off, the phone reboots directly to the bootanimation and loops

Outside of this issue, I like the ROM way over base CM7. It has that new look that MIUI brought to ROM's but still keeps all the features that the phone can accomplish. Great work

See, that's what I did as well when I tested the new version. I only wiped caches (incl. dalvik), and I had no issues at all. But when I did a "super-wipe," I got the boot loop issue like they were describing.

So I rebuilt the ROM from scratch and tested after super-wipe. No issues this time around. So the version in the first post (@everyone, check MD5 to be sure you have most recent one) should resolve boot-loop issues.

I'm still not sure what caused the problem. Hopefully it doesn't happen again.

This new build did fix the boot loop for me. But I still get the blank lock screen after a while if I enable the Calendar widget. I have disabled it for now and so far no issue with the lock screen.

I tried copying the whole main.xml file into google translate. I am about to flash to see if i can get it to work.

Edit: Didn't work

After digging into it a bit, it looks like folks with other devices have problems with that particular lockscreen. I'm not sure what causes the issue, but I'll see if there's a way for me to resolve it (maybe it's just some bad math in the animation timings or something?). I'm inclined to chalk it up as a problem that the theme author needs to resolve, however.
