Camera seemed to work fine before and after for me at least. In fact, I never had the world clock problem either? Oh well. I flashed the fix anyway.

Oh, and bump: let's not let this ROM fall off the map completely. People looking for a very stable Sense 1.0 ROM can't do much better than this one.

World clock issue is only noticeable if you don't add the Weather apk during the AROMA install.

This just happened to me tonight -- it was fine a day or two ago -- but now I can't install any apps from Google Play Store. It always says "Error processing purchase.", even with free apps.

Cleared data for Play Store, but it didn't help.

Any ideas? Thanks!

I finally found something that works for me when this happens. Go to menu, applications, manage applications, all, and click on google framework, clear it, clear google play store too and either boot first then try to download an app or just go straight to the play store. I spent hours reading forums and such to get a fix for that.

If anyone is having wifi issues, I read through this whole thread and used this one...Worked like a charm. Download Rom Toolbox, go to performance, auto memory manager, and lower the levels. My levels were set at 10 I set them at 7 and BAM got wifi....BOOOYAHHHH! CREDIT FOR THAT AWESOME FIX GOES TO volk9029

I have been messing with this evo 4g for almost 2 yrs and everytime I ask my fiance a question he just says READ. Only time I ask a question is to clarify that I am doing it right.....In this forum its very important

Like Robobob1221 said, v1.0.2p is a PATCH ONLY. It is a small 175Kb file and not a full ROM. You would need to flash v1.0.1 first, and then flash the patch.

I've never seen an equalizer specifically for xLoud, before. I usually just use one from the market. That being said, if anyone knows of one, please link it and I'll update the ROM with it.

ALL: I have my OG back now, but there is a new addition to the family, so things are pretty hectic. I'm still around and working on various things, but not nearly as actively as I was. Once things settle down at home, I'll be back in full force. ;)

Battery Life with Underworld VS Classic

On my first flash I chose the Classic kernel. Battery life was bad. Drained with the phone off.

I reflashed and chose Underworld kernel. Standby battery life is great. I didn't touch my phone for 8 hours and the battery only went done 1%. I will say that if I am using the phone, battery life is not so good. I made a 40 min phone call and I lost 40%. That might be a combination of older battery and just that the EVO doesn't have a good battery life even on stock rom.

How is everybody else "screen on" battery life and under what kernal?
Just curious.

ROM is great.

Update the kernel to the latest version for best results. The kernels included in the last version of AlterROM Redux are depricated. Also, make sure to allow time for the kernel to settle. Try changing the governor and/or IO scheduler for the kernel. No combination of kernel/governor/scheduler will work the same for every device, due to varying hardware versions and some other things that are beyond my understanding. You just have to play with it and find the combination that works best for you.

If you are having the same issues across multiple kernels and configurations, grab some logs and I will see if I can find what is causing the drains.

    AlterROM Redux (Codename: CHIMERA) is a custom Android ROM for the HTC Evo 4G (Supersonic) which aims for optimal speed, rock solid stability and a high level of customization. Based on a highly optimized version of the 4.67 OTA update, but with most of the SenseUI removed, AlterROM gives you the stability of stock without all of the overhead of Sense 1.0. Utilizing the powerful AROMA Installer, AlterROM gives you the power to choose exactly which modifications you would like in your ROM when you flash, from alternative launchers to custom kernels and everything in-between. AlterROM aims to allow you to make your phone truly yours!

    Downloads, Installation Instructions & More

    Installation Instructions
    1) Backup Apps/Settings & Do a Nandroid backup
    2) If coming from another ROM (even the original AlterROM), Wipe all through recovery
    3) Flash update zip & follow on-screen instructions
    4) Reboot
    5) Give the ROM a few minutes to settle on first boot. Depending on how many optional apps you've installed it can take some time for the everything to startup and the performance to normalize. Be patient.
    6) Enjoy!

    RC2 Release

    Version 0.0.4 RC2 is up!

    Check the OP. There are new installation instructions. Don't forget to take a look at the changelog if you are curious as to what changed.

    I really wanted to include the 'Alter Setup' option that I've been working on (formerly described as 'Modify Install'), but even after a full rewrite of 800 lines of code it still does not want to function properly. I wanted to give you guys a release, since I know it is overdue and people have been waiting, so I've blocked the feature in RC2. For now, a Clean Install will do much the same as the Alter Setup, but you'll lose app data (but not the apps themselves, if choosing the Backup/Restore option), since it will format /system and /data.

    Thank you all for being so patient on this one! As always, post bugs/requests/etc here and I'll handle everything as soon as I can.

    The final release of 0.0.4 is coming next and, if I feel it is worthy, it will become version 1.0.0, proper. This one is going to take a lot of time, as there is a LOT left that I want to do and need to learn to have AlterROM to the point that I am willing to give it 1.0 release status.

    AlterScript
    *Included in AlterROM Redux as of v1.0.1

    AlterScript is a script created to maintain AlterROM. It is still a W.I.P. and some features (such as Odex) are experimental. Always make sure you have a good NANDroid backup before doing any system wide changes. Use at your own risk. YMMV.

    For best results, it's recommended to run AlterScript through ADB, rather than directly on the device. Not sure why, but the Odex option will occasionally freeze the phone. Nothing is damaged, but it requires a battery pull (or adb reboot) to recover.

    Location on AlterROM: /sdcard/AlterROM/scripts/
    Download Latest Version: Current in AlterROM Redux v1.0.1*

    Options:
    • Odex AlterROM (Experimental)
      If you odex AlterROM, you'll need to immediately reboot to recovery and wipe cache and dalvik-cache. Script will reboot device upon completion. Also, you will need to reodex after every version or mod flash and possibly clean install some version.​
    • Re-optimize Performance
      This will re-optimize performance settings to AlterROM defaults. Nothing more, nothing less.​
    • Cleanup AlterROM
      Coming soon...​

    Version 1.0.1 Released

    AlterROM Redux v1.0.1 has been released!
    Please check the first 3 posts of this thread for details. Changelog in AROMA installer.

    THINGS TO NOTE
    • Odex has been completely pulled from default support and is no longer an option in AROMA. If you are currently running 1.0.0 odex, you will have to perform a clean install. I am sorry for the inconvenience here, but odex as I had it was causing a number of performance/stability issues. You do not have to perform any pre-wipes. The installer will not wipe sd-ext, so if you are partitioned for apps2sd, you should retain your apps. Always be sure to have a backup of anything you care about, though.
    • After flashing (Install or Upgrade), you will have a couple new folders in the AlterROM folder on your sdcard. 'morph' is a placeholder for future NinjaMorph mods. 'scripts' contains AlterScript, which is detailed in post #3.
    • AlterScript odex option will not always work on the device. Use
      Code:
      adb shell sh /sdcard/AlterROM/scripts/AlterScript
    • NinjaMorph mods and updates to AlterScript will be posted in posts #2 & #3. These are a W.I.P.


    The Future of AlterROM Redux
    I just want everyone to be aware of the fact that I am transitioning from the OG Evo to the new Evo 4G LTE and will not have my OG for too much longer. I feel this ROM has reached a level of maturity that does not require me to make major changes to the system, so all that is left is maintenance and little tweaks here and there which can easily be done without needing the device in hand. I will continue to work on AlterROM Redux, but the changes will likely not be major ones. If there are any major changes to the system that require heavy beta testing, I'll call for more testers, but likely things will continue on as they do now.​
