well its working now, but the problem is, there is no way of telling when it does act up what is causing it.

last night, it was sleeping correctly, running was under 20%. now this morning, it was normal too, then i got in my car to go to work, rode the 45 minutes to work not using the phone at all, in my pocket the whole time. Phone was connected to my parrot in car bluetooth.

when I got to work, i turned the phone on to check it. It was at 91% and when I checked cpu spy, it was evident it was using 100mhz 70% of the time and only deep sleeping 7% of the time.

when i tried last night at home, kept wifi off to not taint the results, it was sleeping 70% of the time.

is there a problem with this kernal with bluetooth?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Custodian:
I have had z problem before. I reflashed. Then z problem was a fixed...but that doeznt mean zhat my resolve will fix it for you my friend...but it iz worth z try my friend...

[Epic 4G Android Development] robl45:
well i should make it clear that I just reflashed last night, complete full wipe, and only installed the bareminimum programs that I need. it was fine last night, just seems to be an issue with connecting to bluetooth.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Custodian:
Yes my friend I totally understanda where ya a comming a from. Since finding out what z bluetooth causes to z brain from a long term use...I have not a use a bluetooth every since my friend...but that is a me......my friend

[Epic 4G Android Development] robl45:
well is it a specific issue with this kernal? otherkernals don't seem to have this issue, well at least no where near this bad.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Custodian:
I'm curious rob, around what time period did you purchase your epic 4g

troll stomping beast
[Epic 4G Android Development] robl45:
original one was launch date, it died. this one I got on March 7th.
[Epic 4G Android Development] robl45:
so I powered the phone off. turned it back on. and then cpu spy said no states available. I had to go to voltage control, and apply settings as boot again so cpu spy would see them. but they were already applied as boot before, so is that normal?

EDIT: it does appear to be sleeping again, but if its going to get messed up everytime I connect to bluetooth, thats going to be a problem.
[Epic 4G Android Development] kos26:
Having a problem with 1.2... or atleast it seems. Phone kept freezing and had to pull battery a couple times a day. Seemed t be when using a browser, dolphin and ff. Reverted to 1.1 and the problem went away. Was running at 1.3ghz on 1.1 and 1.2ghz on 1.2. Now at 1ghz on 1.1.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Custodian:
Well my friend, z spy cannot report any activity back to z user if nothings going on....so when juu turn z phone on, try a bit of browzing and marketing to get z states running...then check z spy my friend...I have ran into this issue once upon a time ago aswell my friend...but it wasn't really an issue..more so a simple type of thing overlooked.

phone should sleep while in bluetooth right? it shouldn't be awake the whole time?

I noticed last night after flash bluetooth showed brcm bluetooth, this morning it shows epic 4g like it should. I still think that has something to do with it. maybe I should try restarting the service or something. bluetooth always makes my phone warm while its connect, that happens with all phones, old and new and all kernals,, so i assume thats normal. but for instance, other kernals, i would get to work, and phone would have drained 4% or so on the trip, this trip drained 7% so something definately different.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
It usually shows brcm Bluetooth (Broadcom Bluetooth) whenever the Bluetooth data has been reset or wiped. I have seen it correct itself after reboot or of course when changed manually. If Bluetooth is enabled and connected to a ad2p device, the phone will not sleep. (will manifest as Android system in spare parts)
[Epic 4G Android Development] robl45:
ad2p means like stereo something or other right? this is a parrot in car bluetooth speakphone type deal. routes the calls through my speakers when i'm in the car. phone calls only, no music, I tried that, wouldn't find it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
I'll turn media audio off on my Bluetooth tonight and test to see if I can match your results.

I have been using Thomas's 1.2 vision kernel with the midNIGHT 5.2 EXT4 Journaling on Rom for the past several days. I use setcpu (although I have been warned against using it) and have my min@200 and my max@1400. I have not had a single freeze, reboot or any other odd behavior since flashing this kernel;) I have run a lot of benchmarks and other testing with games and hd videos with various other apps running in the background and have not had a single glitch. However, I can say that I really don't see much of an improvement on my benchmark scores on Linpack or Smartbench while using 1.2gh vs. 1.4gh. On the other hand, the phone does "feel" slightly more responsive @ 1.4gh;) Great job so far Thomas!

On a side note, I bought my Epic slightly after release in early Sept. I noticed there has been a lot of discussion as to which Epics could handle extreme overclocking, guess I got one of the "magical" ones.:D
[Epic 4G Android Development] Custodian:
That is awsome news my friend. Your phone may not be as awsome as mine, but I'm happy to see zhat someone other than myself is having a real epic experience! Pz

[Epic 4G Android Development] Leeboy:
Thanks Custodian....wish I could do something to help you:( These goddamn phones are so touchy that what works for one guy just f's up another guy's. Guess the only thing I could recommend is starting from scratch. Every single time I flash a new rom I always ODIN back to stock FIRST. Everyone says that u can just wipe 3x and flash is B.S. .......unless ur just flashing an updated image of ur current rom. Wiping does not do anything to the rom image, which normally isn't a problem unless the rom is unstable to begin with. In that case, u must ODIN a stable rom to ur phone to flush out all the "demons" and start fresh. When u just wipe and flash a stable rom over a corrupt one this is what causes a lot of problems for people. You end up with a corrupt rom "image". One other thing.....I've been doing about 2 weeks worth of reading and reasearching these p.o.s. 16gig sd cards that Samsung includes stock. Every other forum I visit, other people with different Samsung phones but the "same" sd cards are getting a lot of data corruption even after reformatting. This was a major issue for me, every time I would flash a new rom the phone would start acting up 12-24 hrs. later. Certain little things that were supposed to work either stopped working or caused other problems for me. I had numerous files "dissappear" from my sd card even though they still showed up on "Root Explorer". The file name was there but under "properties" it showed 0bytes. I finally went to an old Toshiba 4gig class 4 card and all my problems with different roms disappeared. I just wonder how many people that are having problems with different roms acting up on them should try switching their sd cards to a higher quality one. I don't mean to ramble on........but ever since I started ODINing back to stock before flashing ANY rom and reformatting my sd card (not the p.o.s. stock card) I haven't had any problems with most of the current roms here @ xda;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Leeboy:
Anyone who has a little time on their hands.....go ahead and research the sd cards that Samsung includes stock. Every other forum I visit it does'nt take long to find a **** load of people who are having problems with these cards. Just Google it:(
[Epic 4G Android Development] musclehead84:
Thomas don't listen to the haters on here. I've been on this kernel since it came out running at 200/1450 the while time. I've even had it at 1450/1450 for benchmarks. No lockups or freezes at all. Just cause your phone can't handle it doesn't mean he should take the download down and remove the 1.45 step. My last phone couldn't handle going last 1.3. I didn't complain and ask the developers to take out the 1.3 and 1.4 step cause my pone couldn't do it. I'm staying on this kernel for a while. My phone has never been this smooth and fast before and I've flashed everything there is. Please oeipke stop *****ing to the op to remove an oc step just cause your phokne can't do it. Stay stock if you want to whine or are afraid of bricking. Thanks

[Epic 4G Android Development] itisagoodname:
I had some issues with mine, the SD card is usually the first thing i change. I have an ADATA 16gig class 10 thats working quite well. I have it partitioned ext4, linux swap, and fat32. I can move all my apps to my SD using Ti backup and it runs just fine. Only thing is the icons of the moved apps sometimes dont show up on startup. All i have to do is restart launcher pro and it works fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Custodian:
Boom-shockalaka!!!!!!!!!! And that's real talk! Everyones phokne cant handle these here kernels!!! Again...overclocking is a risk to begin with. So is undervolting.

I know this is the wrong thread to be bringing this up.....but I've had soooo many problems with the stock sd card, that I can't help but wonder if this is a major problem with everyone else's phone. There are too many other threads I've read where the rom devs get blamed for bugs in their roms when its the damn sd card all along.:eek:
[Epic 4G Android Development] Leeboy:
Thanks......but unicorns r for girls!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Leeboy:
Some people are really missing out.....Been pounding this kernel to the limit all f'in morning (now on performance mode 1400min. & 1400max.) with wireless tether running for 8 hrs. and the phone plugged in! Running "cool" @ 86 degrees:eek:
[Epic 4G Android Development] anavias:
It seems to me that the RAM undervolting is the most risky in terms of possibly causing bricks. Since the screen is the biggest drain on power anyway, can we try a screen UV only version?
[Epic 4G Android Development] phdeez:
Wish I would have found this earlier. I did something similar this morning chris41g. I had Vision1.2 kernel running fine for >24h, and had done multiple shutdowns/boots but never a reboot (I used Reboot Widget this morn). Anyways, I already exchanged mine at the Sprint store since I have TEP, but I bet this might have fixed it.

I had my phone off the charger, reconnected it, it seemed a little slugish (live wallpaper slowdown), so I thought a reboot might help, rebooted it and nothing after that. Tried ME's hard reset procedure with no luck.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Leeboy:
Hell ya! I always wondered about that too. Every time I check my battery usage the screen always takes up 80% or better. Whadda think devs?
[Epic 4G Android Development] bjhill2112:
I had all sorts of weird issues trying to run anything with 1.2 when running higher than 1.3 - or when UVing. I had it running okay, but to be safe I switched back to 1.1.

On another note:
[Epic 4G Android Development] brendan802:
I have been getting 2000-2400 quadrant score on this kernel until I saw the problems people are having so I went back to 1.1. I had no problems when I ran it the 2 days that I did and I rebooted many times and drained the battery a few times too.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Leeboy:
Seems like the only people that r having problems other than just the overclocking aspect are running roms with journaling off. Personally I think all of this journaling off **** is for the birds. Everytime I've tried a rom with it off I getting nothing but force closes and long term data corruption. You don't gain anything to speak of as far as speed (2% or so). So it reads & writes more times who cares? I have'nt read anywhere where someone has fried their chip because of too many reads or writes. While it is possible, I can guarentee none of us will have these phones long enough to ever see it. I've flashed my phone more times than I can count and have been on EXT4 since late Dec. I ran terminal emulator last nite and I still have only 5 bad blocks....same that I started with:eek:
[Epic 4G Android Development] s9ortner:
I had journaling on, so that isn't the issue.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Custodian:
You sir do not have a unicorn phone afterall you have a zordon phone. I only ****s with journaling off. And my **** destroys worlds, it is the light in the darkness, the y2k captain planet, the goku of modern day technology, motha ****ing boss....rick ross, with vision kernal my **** str8 flossin on you hoes..yeeee!!!!

[Epic 4G Android Development] musclehead84:
Hells yeah........ I have journaling off as well.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Mutiny32:
While I don't think the issue within 1.2 is caused by having journaling turned off, I still agree with you. Using a non-journaled filesystem on a device that can easily be turned off with a battery-pull or have a hard-lock that requires a battery pull is simply playing Russian Roulette. It's not a matter of if, but a matter of when you will have data corruption that completely breaks the phone. There is little, if any, performance-loss with journaling enabled at all. Actually, EXT4 was designed completely with journaling in-mind and disabling it was an afterthought which required a patch to the Linux kernel to even allow it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Leeboy:
While I'm also an avid bowhunter/3d shooter......the same logic applys to phones and bows......does'nt matter how fast it is if you can't hit what ur aiming at......as with other things in life. All I know is my phone is FAST & STABLE and will be 5 years from now:D
[Epic 4G Android Development] robl45:
is 70% deep sleep time on cpu spy normal or do most people have much higher?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Nope, that's very good actually :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Top Nurse:
If you have been running ext4 for a while and change to journaling with ext4 you will notice a major performance hit.

Sent from Bonsai 7.0.3
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yeah, there is definitely some performance loss.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Leeboy:
Some performance loss yes....but how much of a performance loss will shutting off journaling cause in the long run when your data starts to get corrupted. I'm not gonna keep reflashing my phone everytime something goes to hell with it off. I can speek from experience.....I flashed the newest ACS Rom, let it "settle" for 20 min. then downloaded Smartbench from the Market, ran 5 tests that averaged around 2300. Then I shut the phone off, booted into recovery, did a nandroid - to enable journaling and booted back up. Ran Smartbench again, this time averaged closer to 2350. Had one test around 2400. Slightly better yes, but not worth the instability. Very fine job on the rom by the way, I'm not saying anything bad about ur rom.......just prefer journaling on. I've done an extensive amount of research on Google about this and the verdict is in.....STABILITY WINS.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Hey, to each their own :) I've used it both ways, and honestly, I like both journaling on and off.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Journaling on here also,never bricked the phone,but it borked the file structure or somthing,couldnt format data...
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
I think you have that reversed,you said you got better scores after the nandroid backup/install,,,just pointing this out to anyone else that reads that post...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Leeboy:
Yep, sometimes u feel like a nut. Sometimes u don't.

---Just thought it might be safer to steer noobs in the journaling direction since shutting it off can be frustrating until you learn how to "talk dirty to it";)
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
The journaled version of 1.1.1 will include the "best practices" of supercurio - so while it won't be as fast as no-journal, it will be as good as journaled gets - and safe.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Leeboy:
Thanks man.....yes, my scores were better with journaling off.
[Epic 4G Android Development] XxLostSoulxX:
For those who have problems and keep saying its everyone elses fault its only yours. Your liable 4 what you do to your phone. Some phones can't handle any O'clock or UV. Just stop complaining about it that its the kernel or roms fault. 1 rom doesn't have abything to do with it. 2 the kernel may have an issue it may react different to each and every one of our phones. 3 if that's the case use a different kernel and see if that's the issue if not its YOU. As said by everyone and their moms Everyone here will try to help but *****ing will not. Point Blank. /Rant Over/.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Leeboy:
SWEEEEEEET MAN! You guys f'n Rock. Looking foward to it:D
[Epic 4G Android Development] cyberdog433:
Good stuff, but I've found a possible issue with the tweaks on verson 1.2 of the kernel. - This is NOT related to any overclock as far as I can tell through testing. Occurs even at stock speed and below and seems isolated to a single cause.

After installing, if you press and hold any shortcut/widget on one of the home screens to say move it or delete it, you'll get a Force Close error for TwLauncher the moment you release or lift your finger from the shortcut/widget.

Anybody else have this quirk or know of a fix? (I did try clearing the Dalvik cache, didn't help).

[Epic 4G Android Development] gabe2gg:
not everyones phone will get bricked running 1.2, I ran it fine with incredible battery life and no freezing
[Epic 4G Android Development] intx:
so did i, for a week.

i rebooted multiple times, powered off multiple times.

of course being as unlucky as I am, the time I do go to flash a different kernel to avoid it, it happens.

Why would you risk bricking your device? It's simply stupid. I can't tell you what to do with your phone, but it's IMO very silly to even risk it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
All the info so far sounds exactly like what happened in the bonsai beta. If that's the case, it's only a matter of time. Not every phone will brick within the first 24 hours. Some take longer. It's like doing a crap load of drugs all at once. Some people will die the first time they try it, and some might have better tolerance.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Top Nurse:
Just curious what your even doing here on XDA with a statement like that? If you can't afford to race don't modify your engine...

[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
LoL,well I sorta agree,but if people are getting bricks,and its more and more every day I'm sure,then it is sorta stupid...

I don't agree with the racing anology,for instance,if a company is selling a part that is supposed to give you 5 more ponys,and everyone buys that part; Then a month later finds it causing problems for 10-20% of people that bought this part,its recalled. Now say you heard that its causing problems,would you go out and buy this part,I don't think so,why,because your not stupid...
[Epic 4G Android Development] musclehead84:
I got a little worried today. I have been running this kernel since the release with no problems at all. My first phone bricked on bonsai so i definitely want to be careful this time and i also have an awesome phone this time that can handle so far any overclock. well i was playing around and then it started becoming like the phone was stuttering and slowing down. then i got a text message and my music sounded like a speaker was blown and it was skipping. I was like oh no. so i did the four finger into recovery and luckily i made it and flashed another kernel. Dont know if my phone would have bricked or not but i was worried for a little bit. i might flash it back. no other kernel seemed so smooth on for me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] robl45:
so I drove home today with bluetooth on and deep sleep was around 50% or so instead of 20% like this morning, so I'll ask yet again, is there any app that i can use that will pinpoint what the problem is? clearly there was some problem this morning, maybe it interacts with wifi turning off and bluetooth connecting when i leave the house? I just have no idea how to pinpoint the problem.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
To tell you the truth,I've noticed this slow down today as I'm running Vision 1.1 now,I wonder if the no2chem files are causing the skips,and slow down,because I bet most of us have them installed also...

Edit::: And about 10m ago xda app froze on me,all settings for that app were reset upon reboot,that could be an app problem... And I'm running the modded EC05.tar,and that includes the no2chem files; I'm still at 100-1000mhz setcpu.

Sorry my mind was on another analogy where the parts are $50,000 racing engines. Some blow up on the dyno and some make it down the strip 10 times, but you still pay $50K before they make it. And just so were clear this analogy is right on because only a small percentage of people have bricks or blow up on the dyno. ;)
