Root [1-21-13][ROM] CM10.1 for the evoLTE!!

[Rxpert83]

How is CM10 looking now as a DD everyone? What's not working still? Help a brother out here I miss CM10 but it had too many bugs for me when I was using it. Thanks everyone :thumbup:

Honestly... I'm not running into anything.

There can be issues with how cm handles the SD card but that's it here.

I'd suggest making a nandroid and trying decks latest from irc

 

[SaleenFiend]

Love it! Only issue I find is the SD card routing--PowerAmp won't find my music. I just stuck with Apollo for now. I'm also a fan of Beats.. I want to bake it into this ROM.

CM10 has been my daily driver for a little over 3 weeks now. A record for a flashaholic like me. And I only one ran into an issue with a missed up phone call. Cleared cache and dalvik cache and haven't had a single issue since. In fact I can't go back to sense Roms anymore, too big and clunky for me. Never liked them on the OG Evo either. But with this phone they seemed okay until I tried CM10. Once I had a senseless Rom I really saw how beautiful this phone is.

 

[Granite1]

Ok, is this thing worth trying now? I've stayed away from CM since the BOD issues on the OG.

I "should" just read and see what's up, but: Ate there any major functionality bugs?

I'll probably download this tonight and give it a go.....maybe....

 

[windsorclarenc]

Dude, do it! You won't regret it. Even if ya do, you always have nandroids. I've heard there are camcorder issues but I haven't tested it yet. Never really needed to shoot videos.

 

[SaleenFiend]

I hope they add more customization to the app drawer soon withing the stock launcher

 

[3vodroid]

Sounds good fellas thanks for the info.. Maybe I'll give it a shot and flash it tonight. Decks builds are still better than the nightlys I'm assuming?

NVM just saw your post RX, i will check out decks : )

I have a noob question.
I am currently on viper rom 1.0.0 with s-on hboot 1.15. I know I have to fastboot the kernel to flash CM10. If i want to go back to viper, would i have to fastboot the kernel from the viper rom? or can i keep the same kernel?

I'm pretty sure that's a yes.

I don't have your hboot so I can't test.... but I'm unsure if a nandroid would be able to restore your kernel.

If you were flashing back to viper than absolutely you'd have to. Its the nandroid restore I'm not positive about

 

[kbp08tls]

I read somewhere that the kernel would not get restored when nanding back and forth between ICS and JB ROMs. So yes, every time you go from one to the other, you will need to fastboot flash the kernel.

I'm so glad I'm s-off.

 

[Questhate]

Has anyone else experienced a noticeable drop in reception quality after flashing to CM10?

The Sprint reception in my area has always been... not-so-great, but it's been noticeably worse since I rooted and flashed to CM10 a couple of days ago.

Not sure if this helps, but I'm H-Boot 1.19, and I installed the latest (end of Aug) OTA update from Sprint before I decided to root a couple of days ago. I'm seeing posts about flashing your radio to go along with the ROM, how do I find out what radio version I have?

Sorry for the noob questions.

EDIT: I think my radio version is under Baseband: 1.12.11.0809

 

[Rxpert83]

If you have hboot 1.19 you are on the latest radios

I will say the reception has less bars than it does on the sense based ROMs, but if you actually use an appto show you your signal strength it is about normal

 

[Rxpert83]

Example... open signal maps.

As you can see. Status bar shows 2 bars, but open signal maps shows 75%

 

[Questhate]

@rxpert83

You must be sending good mojo my way because my OpenSignal is now hovering around 65% -- pretty much on par with what I was getting before.

For much of yesterday and today, I could not even lock in a 3G signal, and my ping times were like 2500ms. But then again, I've experienced days with bad Sprint signal before when I was stock Sense. I must be a tad bit overly paranoid.

But it's good to note that the reception signal in the notification bar seems to understate your true reception. Very good to keep in mind. Thanks!

 

[Rxpert83]

Yeah with sprint underway with the network vision improvements you never know how the networks gonna be on any given day.

You can also make a nandroid backup and flash a sense ROM to do a prl and profile update to see if that helps. Then you just nandroid restore back to cm10

I can tell you first hand (I have the same hboot as you). That you need to flash the kernel when you switch back to viper. Had to find that one out on my own after a little bit of frustration. So yes.. Defnetly are going to need to fastboot flash it, or give flash gui a shot. :thumbup:

I've actually had better reception and reception in places I've never had it before. The battery life leaves something to be desired but I'm sure that will come once we start seeing RCs

have you tried the new komodo kernel yet? it has been pretty good for me so far on cm10. its in the list sticky at the top of this forum.

 

[Rxpert83]

Agreed. Komodo is great. I'm running Lionheart governor and underclocked to 800mhz. Still buttery smooth

 

[windsorclarenc]

I thought the Komodo kernel was incompatible with CM10. I must be off to flash it right now then!

 

[Rxpert83]

Nope its an aosp kernel for jellybean

 

[ocnbrze]

yep komodo is running very smooth. i'm underclocked to 384 and maxed out to 1890!!!i'm also using lionheart as well. been running pretty good so far.

[2strokenut]

So what differences in performance can one expect from the AOSP Camera as opposed to the imagesense powered Sense Camera? One of the things I like most about the phone is the camera and I don't really want to downgrade. CM10 looks to be progressing nicely and after playing with JB on a NExus 7 I'm ready to ditch sense. Currently I'm on Viper and it lags so much I feel like I'm on a stock EVO 4g sense rom. I'm about fed up.

 

[Rxpert83]

The camera works fine. Is it going to have all of the software options that sense has? No, but the hardware is still there.

If you're curious, make a nandriod and try it. That's why we're rooted
