Thanks! Got in touch with sprint. They fixed everything.

Yeah, you may try the new radio. It resolves issues like what you are reproting. And what Stock ROM did you try? And what Radio do you currently have?

That's the baseband right? I have installed 0.97.10.0808

Eeek, that sucks! Here is what I use to test if its my ROM or the Sprint service, although not FOOLPROOF, it usually will indate a mass failure on sprint side.

Go to this page: https://pictures.sprintpcs.com/login.do?cp=login

If it doesnt pull up or you cant log in Picture mail is down sprint wide.

Good Stuff! Hows that for yer fix ;)

Ok, so you do have the latest baseband.... Thats good.

When you installed over the prior ROM what did you wipe exactly. Walk me through your processes.

Also, in that 1X area can you confirm no other Sprint phone is doing the same thing? Prefferably an Evo 3D if at all possible.

You know the weirdest thing happened I went back to my nandroided 2.3.4 backup and all my stuff was exactly the way it was supposed to be but my os version was 2.3.3. I will try and flash back to your rom later tonight and I will let you know. Thanks.

Fixed the incoming call issue. It was my Airave access point. Ever since the new update my phone must not be fully compatible with it anymore. I unplugged it and immediately started getting all incoming calls. Thanks for the support and keep up the great work on this killer ROM.

How do I undo the transparent notification bar mod? Some notifications can't be seen (voicemail details, CNN details for example).

@Scrosler:

Totally unrelated to your rom but I wanted your opinion.

What is your take on this new dual core kernel? I already know that benchmark scores don't necessarily mean anything but I am seeing some consistent issues by several users that have flash this new kernel and it isn't as fast as it seems to be.
 
Re: [ROM] CleanROM 2.2 -8/27/11- GB 2.3.4 - The Best Never Rest!

Can you make a mod to have unlimited windows for the Internet app? Other ROM's have that feature and it is quite useful. Thanks

Hmmm... Well I know benchmarks are not "supposed" to mean anything but if you go by bench marks it does mean something. To those people I say... I guess 0 to 60 doesn't mean anything either? They may respond with "No the car is made for top end speed." Well that benchmark app only measures what the application developer write it to measure. So if changing kernels makes it run faster or slower on those functions then all apps will run faster or slower on those functions.

I guess I dont know what I am trying to say but read carefully: If your benchmark score slows then simply put... Something is slowing down. Granted Quadrant is not dual core capable, so if it tests out performance on single core and that single core scores lower... well... then that single core is running slowe on those functions. Thats the truth my friend.

But... You get back to the age old debate... Are benchmarks accurate? I say yes. Others will say no. I really believe that if quadrant score goes up or down then overall phone performance goes up or down.

And lastly.... I think benchmarks are good for measuring performance but at what point do we really need them? This phone HAULS ASS out of the box. Shouldn't your eyes and other sensory input be the real test?

(Bet you were not expecting all that for an answer? lol)

Eventually, yes.

Scott - Thanks again for all of your work with this ROM. Everyone I know who has a 3D is now using it. You're a genius.

Hoping you may have some insight on this.
My signal has always been less than fantastic when I was on stock, but I was always able to get a 3G signal. Since I flashed CleanROM and the new radios you linked to earlier this week, I'm hanging on 1x. I believe it's not the rom, but is there any way it could impact the signal?

Is there a better radio out there or any tweaks to boost signal strength. I've seen the threads on XDA to boost 4G and 3G speeds but no dice because the signal is awful. This is the 4th handset so I know it's not a faulty unit. Any ideas, o wise one?

Thanks

LOL, thanks for the lengthy answer. I wish there was a definitive way of proving how much better or worse a kernel is other than the "yeah it feels faster" placebo effect.

Seems like everyone loves this rom...... I'll install tonight this will be my first time rooting.
