New OTA - EVO 4G General

Anyone using the new OTA notice any significant difference in the camera?
I know there was a whole new APK and libs for it, so it should be different. I just want to know without flashing

Devs are currently going through the new RUU that was just released a few hours ago . They are still sorting through the changes in the Development section . Information at this time is still limited but bare with them . Im sure they will find good stuff in them if there is anything good put into it . Now if they do something about the charging bug / battery issue *Ducks behind couch to avoid incoming objects*

What charging bug and battery issue are u talking abt?

The charging bug is when you charge your phone over night and unplug it drops to 95% or 90% right off the bat . Or the fact the phone doesnt charge extended batteries very well . NOW back on track LOL the OTA .

This isn't a bug but how the battery is designed to charge so the battery lasts longer. Been this way since the evo came out.

I just loaded this up to test the kernel power draw and man is it low. I'm talking about almost half of CM6 with Snap 7.5 which was already by far the best. I don't know if I'm reading the log wrong but it's only drawing 30 mA @ idle - Snap 7.5 is low 50's. This ROM/Kernel should have crazy battery life.

Maybe I'm a little tired but after taking 15-20 low light pics something seems much improved. Focusing is fast, and the flash doesn't blow out the picture or look like an 80s polaroid anymore.
Again, this could just be in my mind, I'll try to compare to some old pics and post the conclusion.

@creyc: I think you are right. The "nuclear blast" flash in low light seems under control. Also focused very quickly.
@Award Tour: How do you measure the drain?

where's the dev forum? I couldn't find anything in EVO 4G developers section. Can someone drop the link here?

I'd also be down so long as I can get back into download mode
Yes you can still get into download mode by pulling the battery holding both volume up and down plugging it in to the comp and then putting the battery back in. And I will messaging everyone back later tonight or tomorrow morning.

As much as I support this project, Sense has been shown to be an ass to port due to the closed sourced software. I believe the only phones to receive Sense by devs are those with similar hardware to HTC phones, such as the Nexus One and Desire.
But, good luck to you!
Wow impressive data working that's good
Just want to ask if everythings going all right?

GPS fix, and the cause of many issues

I seen a few threads on GPS fixes. I read them and still see some people having issues after applying fixes. I found out something interesting so it's my turn to post a fix for the GPS issue.
Here is what this will fix:
taking a long time to get a fix.
Not being able to keep a fix.
Not accurate data.
GPS consuming more battery then it should.
I can tell every one who is having trouble still right off the bat that they have their TB's overclocked.
I found out something interesting while trying to get from point a to point b a few days ago. All of a sudden I was having all sorts of issue that I never had before. After futzing around to try and find a solution I focused on the only thing different then usual.
I had my TB overclocked to 1.5GHZ when I normally don't go much higher then 1.2GHZ. mostly not to drain the battery.
My unit took several minutes to get a fix, and when it did, if I started moving again,(driving down the road) it completely lost the fix, or it was sporadic at best.
I lowered the clock speed to 1.2ghz. Killed all apps for a fresh start. Started navigate again, and I got a fix in less then 10 seconds. And it held a fix.
I put the clock speed back to 1.5ghz and I lost the fix again. Problems were occurring again.
I was able to get a good fix at 1.3ghz, but it took a tad longer, still under a minute to get a fix, but at 1.2 it works flawlessly.
Apparently the chipsets used for GPS don't like too high of a frequency above normal.
If anyone is having an issue with GPS, lower your cpu to 1.2ghz or lower. Kill all apps. then restart your GPS software.
Hope this helps any one having issues out!
Great theory, and may be true to an extent. I don't oc and today I could not get a lock to save my life. And I was in wide open lake country where a lock should have been instant.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Yea I dont OC at all and Still even with a couple of patches Ive tried, it still dont work right.
My gps has never worked correctly since I got the phone. So interesting theory, but purely circumstantial and unscientific testing. The issue comes about from XTRA code being incomplete in the framework.jar. This is needed for fast locks. Secondly, the radio needs updating. Both are present in a yet unreleased TB ota.
Why you see wildly different results is that eventually, even a standalone gps locks. Fiddling with settings and so forth, you eventually get a lock. Once you have lock and keep it 'warm' with somewhat regular use, you get the illusion of your gps being fixed.

Yeah, I'll agree with everyone (minus the troll). The OC may be affecting your problem, or seem like it is. But, me, from the time I walked out of the store my GPS has not locked a single time. Glad I've still got my not-much-better fascinate to use nav with hhaha.
Currently, using the unreleased update I mentioned, I wait a maximum of 10 seconds on q cold lock, and I'm overlooked to 1.5ghz.

Lots of post-EG22 builds

Don't know if it's important, but I just noticed there are 4 post EG22 builds.
EG29
EG30
EH02
EH03
I reckon it's about done, eh?
EH04 and EH05 too.
yes, judging by these builds it seems like they are almost done and doing small stuff like making sure apps are working as they should and optimizing code and such. I remember when i had my hero they always sped up build rate before release (2.1).
Oh yeah, I see the EH04 & EH05 now, but how can that be? That would be tomorrow & the next day's builds... Has Samsung figured out how to bend time?

In development you have UAT QA which leads to this multiple builds drama. Everytime the QA tech kicks back the code the devs go back recompile the fix and they have to stamp it with a new build number.

[Bounty] $50 for a wifi calling echo fix

Straight up. I am currently using ZenDroid 2.1.1, but have encountered this problem on several roms and so have others. The person on the other side gets a horrible echo. I just moved to a house where my reception is horrible, and I need this to work properly. My wife and I both have vibrants.
The bottom line - be the first to deliver to me a non echoing, functional t-mobile wifi calling app for froyo, and I Paypal you $50. I prefer to have it work on zen droid, but if there is no other way, I will change to another froyo rom to have this work properly. I just have to confirm it has fixed my problems before payment, and $50 is yours. No BS.
Anyone up to the challenge?

Yeah I saw it, what I am looking for now is actually to get the app fixed , if someone has the time...
Everything he said makes sense, and I will have to try the volume thing to see how it works. I posted this before I saw what he said on the ZenDroid thread.
As far as the incentive, I think it is a good idea. I am totally not trying to be a smartass, when I say it would not be the first time something unfixable on this phone was fixed by some great minds on this forum. I'm trying to motivate someone to try and overcome a difficult, perhaps insurmountable obstacle.

NP, and, certainly not trying to push. I am not an EDT fanboy, but I have tried at least 8-10 2.3.4-2.3.5 ROMs, just about giving up, and saying Nexus Prime is prolly less than 2 months away. On a final whim I tried Asgard, and with this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239713
despite myself, I actually have working GPS that is equal to or better than any FroYo ROM I have used. I am on my 3rd replacement Vib. and the first 2 sucked wind as far as GPS went, so I KNOW bad GPS. I saw another poster (and I should have bookmarked the quote) say something to the effect that anything that could possibly be a GB bug he has managed to experience on his Vib. +1... The problem is that no 2 phones are the same, so YMMV, but I am now, albeit reluctantly, a believer that GB can have awesome GPS. Just my 4 cents.
I use my gps on a daily basis as a must for my business and im on miui revamped and have been for a couple months..these guys have got the gps goin on,its fast,accurate and i haven't driven off a cliff or into the ocean yet.
So if your sticking with froyo for that reason....your missing out.
Good luck with your wifi calling endeavour

Thanks nick. Is a form of wifi calling working on miui? Did not think it was, guess its the only thing keeping me off it now. Things changed for me moving to the new place, but after a few hiccups, the studio should be at 100% in about two weeks. Its always something, right?
I would have tried your rom earlier, but I just lack the time to do the switching around nowadays. Had to go back to froyo and stay for awhile.

Can somebody make a cwm flashable file which removes the battery low indicator for the camera, camcorder and video player? I believe K0oanne did it before. It would be nice to have for our phone again since we have the official gingerbread rom. It would be nice to merge this with the shutter sound off tweak and the auto focus off sound tweak.

PM K0oanne he done it before he would know. I figure he is busy with CM7. I made some changes to the camera app. It is the apk itself. The last time he did it he just modified the apk. But I am not a programmer so I don't know what he did.
