Root [ROM] MidnightRom: Sense 1.5.4

Very impressed here. I did a full reset/wipe and have had no reboots so far on 1.1.9 (don't want to jinx myself). If No-Frills CPU is to blame, it hasn't effected me yet (running the xondemand profile, 1.566GHz max). I have two voip apps running constantly (sipdroid and grooveip) and wifi never sleeps, so there is a low level, but constant demand being placed on the phone.

I also installed google voice and the search widget. Google voice thru the search widget seems to work flawlessly on 1.1.9. I pushed it pretty hard with a dozen requests in a row, which would have hung it in 1.1.6. But.... google voice thru the capacitive search button is wonky, maybe I missed something.

Besides the wifi reconnection issue (don't know yet if it's still an issue with wifi never sleeping now), I'm finding a minor bug with the installed task manager reporting zero memory usage for every app so far except for settings.

How did you install google voice and search?? I would like to install that.

Again, it works great for me only through the search widget. It took some experimentation, but I was able to get it working fairly easily.

First I downloaded and installed the Google Now zip from this thread-> http://androidforums.com/evo-v-4g-all-things-root/574566-mod-jelly-bean-voice-assistant-google-now.html I then used the app Root Explorer to go to the /system/app folder where I deleted the file GoogleQuickSearchbox.apk (you can rename to GoogleQuickSearchbox.bak instead). When it still wasn't working I re-installed the Google Now zip and put the search widget on the home screen. The first time it will take you through the Google Now setup.

You probably could eliminate the first step and rename/delete the GoogleQuickSearchbox.apk file then install Google Now, but theres no way I can confirm it.

Do I just flash the file to the root of the sd card then??
 
1.1.9 seems to be working very well with my phone... had a lot of reboots with 1.1.7 . None yet to speak of. Running pretty much as flashed. Did a FULL system wide wipe [except SD]. Installed apps [APPS ONLY, NO DATA] thru Titanium. Great ROM thus far! SwipetoSleep works on Lockscreen only in my findings... no big deal tho... would like to disable Swipeto completely... is that possible? I like my power button just fine. :)

Wifi reconnects fine... haven't used Tether yet tho....
 
I looked but can't find if this Rom has the 4g working. And if it does is it with s on or s off

All Anthrax kernels after 8/7 (somewhere around version 3.0.2?) have WiMax 4g working without needing reboot.

So yes, current 3.1.7 kernel has 4g working.

Re: s-on / s-off... if you use 4ext you can be s-on with smartflash, if no 4ext then follow the fastboot method. definitely works with s-off.
 
"-Updated kernel to 1.1.7"

Is that supposed to be 3.1.7?
I know Anthrax has a 3.0.x & 3.1.x line going; but not a 1.1.x?

Have you disabled any HTC apps from starting? I remember this happening to me a while back.





Why you have to remove the signature on the stock message app :( I liked it

I didn't think it was ever an option?
