Re: OMJ's HTC EVO 2.3.3 Custom ROMs | GingerBread 4.12.651.1 | *Updated 5/22/11*

I was reading a site about a possible netflix fix, and discovered something....

u can use ES File Explorer to mount /data & /system

after opening ES filer explorer, menu, settings, root options, check the 1st box, I selected HiAPK ROM...I would assume you would only check the 2nd box if u needed write access.

I have installed Screen Filter, but although it dims the appearance of the screen, it does not seem to help with battery life.

Other than that, love the rom!
the brightness bug wont be fixed until HTC releases the source code for the GB kernel.....so until that happens, we just got to deal w/ it (including me).....personally, I don't think the battery drain is all that bad.

Hey OMJ I wanted to thank you for giving us this awesome ROM! I love it!

The only thing I cant get to work is the speech-to-text. Every time I try to use it the microphone does not show any activity as if it were hearing my voice and it just stays there as if I was not talking at all. Let me know if there is a fix for this or if its something I will need to deal with for now. Other than that everything runs perfect.

Thanks again!

Anyone else get fc's in the weather channel app when trying to load radar? Think every odex rom has done this.

Can I install 5/22 ROM on top of 4/26 without backup/format/restore?

OMJ did that Netflix fix work for you? I haven't updated to the latest GB ROM yet. I did try that fix and it still won't play the movies. It just kicks me out. Works perfect on my wifes stock EVO. I will probably update ROM tomorrow. Thanks for all your work!

I wouldn't recommend it. Two different ports. I wipe no matter what on every new ROM flash. Why take the risk of screwing something up?

Hi Uofajac,
Thank you for your answer.
>Two different ports.
I thought this is the same port with minor changes - am i wrong?

How do you do backup/restore on gingerbread? Titanium? what about home-screens restore?

I used TB to restore all apps from a Froyo rom AND the following which surprised me since I went Froyo-GB...

Text and MMS
Call log/history
Bookmarks
Wireless Access Points

Did NOT attempt any settings from TB nor the Desktop

Re: OMJ's HTC EVO 2.3.3 Custom ROMs | GingerBread 4.12.651.1 | *Updated 5/22/11*

I'm still using OMJ_EVO_2.3.3_Gingerbread_v5.0_odexed-signed.zip - I haven't updated to v1.3 because this one actually has 4G running for me. This screen brightness really is killing my battery, I use both my 3500mah batteries to last a day. Sound about right? (I use the hell out of my phone) - I used to last 1.5 days on two batteries on froyo

I installed the newest GB version and when i try to open the sense 3.0 lockscreen.apk it says it is an invalid file and says cannot open file when i click on it?? i have tried downloading it multiple times.

Edit: file would not open by clicking on it from internet->settings downloads
Used ES File explorer to open the apk and it worked fine.
