0.0.4.1-RC1
Alright folks. I've cleaned up the scripts in AlterROM 0.0.4-RC1 and included the SystemUIs with 70% black transparency (hotfix 1) into one complete zip. I've flashed this zip repeatedly over the last 24 hours (lost count of how many, but I'm sure my phone still loves me
) and each time I flashed the AlterROM folder was created on the root of my SD card. Upgrade installs (which simply use the previous install configs stored in the AlterROM folder) work properly for me.
If you were having difficulty with the previous RC1 release, please attempt a Clean install of the version linked in this post or the OP and report back if the AlterROM folder still fails to appear. I was unsuccessful in finding a common link between those affected, but I did rewrite some of the code used by AROMA, so it may fix the issue. I've tested with and without pre-wipes, re-partitioning and just straight no wipe installs, deleting the AlterROM folder each time, and everything seems fine for me, but I would like confirmation.
If you are already on RC1 with the current hotfix and have an AlterROM folder in SD, then there really is no need to flash this but feel free to download it for any future re-install needs.
On another note: I believe I found the issue that kept me from releasing the Modify Install option, but I am doing further testing to be certain. If all goes well, I may have another RC up as soon as this weekend, provided I can get the pending requests and bug fixes in on time.

That's odd. It should only create that directory at the end of an install. It's a function of the cleanup script.
FYI . . .I just did a fresh install of AlterROM v0.0.4.1-RC1 and there is no AlterRom folder on my SD card ? I'm using amon ra 2.3. would it be in another folder perhaps ?
edit: i used lionfish kernel if it helps

All sbc kernel is now fix with the ffc. Ca1ne fix this for all our problems. If you want undervolt already kernel, go with lionfish. If you want to tweak yourself go with underworld. If you have no idea and just want to keep it minimal, go with classic. All great kernel but one will work better for your phone
Try another fresh install over that one and save the log and PM it to me, please.
Does it do that with the stock browser?

I'm going to revert the notification drop down to transparent white with black text to prevent the black text issue with some apps.
The log . . can you explain how to do this in simple man terms and I will do when I get back from work. . .
After install is complete, there is a save logs button. Right before the reboot/finish screen.

61AlterROM 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!

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!

Recent Quick Fixes
*These are quick fixes that I've posted throughout the thread to resolve current issues, between fix releases.
>Stocks Fix: Deodex |Odex*Fixes FC issue with Stocks app on version 1.0.06RC2 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.5AlterScript
*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...
5Version 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. - Odex AlterROM (Experimental)
