Question, i made a nandroid backup prior to installing EE03. I ran EC05 with SRF 1.1 EXT4 CWM 3.0.2.5. Now if i wipe 3x and restore, will it completely restore everything? Even the EXT4 and EC05?

Edit: nevermind, i just realized that 3.0.2.5 supports both RFS and EXT4 >_>
[Epic 4G Android Development] dcorn619:
Hi ACS, you never cease to impress. Seriousy. One question though is there a way to bloc the scren from turning on when the camera key is pressed? Sorry if this was asked earlier :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] bdbc:
I don't normally have 4G on, since I don't get it at my house, but with the new ROM installed I tried it out while driving around today. At least once, 4G locked up on me and I couldn't get a data connection until I disabled then re-enabled 4G. So yes, I've experienced a random 4G lock up.

Between FM, a touchy GPS, and somewhat touchy 4G, along with some other issues (eg. laggy RFS), this less than final build is looking more and more unrefined. No offense to anyone of course in saying that, but yeah it has its issues. I'm thinking I may revert to 1.1.0 again for a while, and wait for a nice clean EXT4 frozen version of this to come out. I have faith in the fellas that after they have the time to give the ROM the full ACS tuneup, that it'll purr like a kitten.
[Epic 4G Android Development] daddymikey1975:
After using wifi, I turned wifi off and 3G did not come up automatically. I had to go into the menu, disable the network, then re-enable. after that, 3G came right up.

Another thing I noticed, on froyo whenever your phone is idle, or whatever, you could push camera, vol down, vol up, and power all at the same time and it would immediately throw the phone into reboot then recovery. W/ gingerbread it brings up some "insert smiley" thing.. other than that weird anomaly, it seems to be running pretty slick.. battery life is great for me thus far w/ less than moderate use..

Can't wait for EXT4 version and overclock and all those goodies.. this is good enough for rt. now for me.. SUPER stoked that ACS and their 'source' hooked us up.. AWESOMNESS :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] ScientificOne:
I'm one of the 5000 who received a google music beta invite (by attending the google i/o conference) and I have yet to get it to work on any gingerbread ROM...FROYO no problems, but this ROM and any gingerbread for the nook color, no luck!
[Epic 4G Android Development] troy22:
u said everything i was thinking. but instead im going to use simply aosp 3.1.1.

the eeo3 modem is very good with the simply aosp 3.1.1 rom. havent had any issues and the rom seems to run more smoothly? haha LOVE IT!!

[Epic 4G Android Development] || Acer ||:
Can someone answer my question? =\
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paul627g:
I think the biggest problem is some people keep forgetting this is still a "leaked build". As good as it is there is going to be some bugs. I applaud ACS for bringing this to us and letting us enjoy what to this point has been the best Gingerbread to date for the Epic 4g.

Its real simple if your not happy with it then Odin back to EB13 or EC05 and run some Froyo ROMs for awhile longer until things are a big more polished or a final/official build is available. I personally am D-O-N-E with Froyo, I've seen enough of it to make me sick of the thought of anymore Froyo.

Thanks again k0nane, source leak and the rest of ACS you have given me some Gingerbread goodness even if it isn't a perfect treat to everyone's expectations.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paul627g:
I'm not positive if a NanDroid backup does the modem. It appears that CWM 3.0.2.5 is making a backup of the boot image (kernel) but I'm not positive on the modem. At this point I would say NO it doesn't back up the modem.

Really though, if you have your NanDroid backup and use that then flash the EB13 modem in Odin then what is the problem?

Here is my link to the EB13 modem if you don't have it. Flash in Odin.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DubzEm:
So i finally got CWM to recognize my phone and it started running but now ive been stuck at

push: recoveryfiles/e2fsck -> /system/bin/recoveryfiles/e2fsck

for 15 mins now...

should i exit out or unplug my phone or wait longer???
[Epic 4G Android Development] digiblur:
One thing I did notice is the Wifi on this build is garbage. Lost about 25% coverage. Sitting with a stock Epic and it has coverage and the GB Epic does not.
[Epic 4G Android Development] worldwidepmp:
Glad to know I'm not the only one that noticed that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tmuka:
I've had the same experience. Netflix streaming is great too!
[Epic 4G Android Development] DubzEm:
FINALLY GOT IT TO WORK!!! I exited out of CMW and restarted it and now it works.

Thanks to everyone that helped me out
[Epic 4G Android Development] Phasma343:
performance

performance is horrid!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paul627g:
Yes I have noticed this a bit too, but the trade off seems to be 4g is stronger because I'm frequently grabbing 4g at home when I got it maybe a whole half dozen times on Eclair/Froyo in the last 7 months that I've had my Epic.
[Epic 4G Android Development] || Acer ||:
Thanks, I already have the EB13 modem flashed from Odin.

I just wanted to know if a backup would work if the modem ever caused problems for me. Then again, I could just Odin to a different modem so never mind =P.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paul627g:
If you believe in benchmarks that is about correct for a RFS deodexed ROM. Stock usually pulled somewhere in the neighborhood of 600-700 if I remember correctly. RFS on Froyo pulled right around 950-1000 so this is falling right into where I believe it should be with a bit of a boost from the CIQ removal.

Remember its a stock kernel, no overclock, no EXT so your not going to see any speed records.
[Epic 4G Android Development] digiblur:
Hopefully they will have it fixed in the later build....but something tells me it's not going to be.

No 4G here...you have to live in the hood to get 4G here... barely have any cell signal here, but that's what the Airave is for. I only have the 1X version of Airave. So we use Wifi when at home.
[Epic 4G Android Development] diptenkrom:
I assume that thereis not a oc/uv kernel that works with this?

Send from my GingerEpic 4g using XDA Premium
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Nope, not until source comes out ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] fredknex:
so does anybody what specifically changed to make the 4g better? does it affect the old 4g trick where you get your msl and turn down the signal threshold in the settings?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Phasma343:
I am well aware of that. It feels slower than stock EC05. Try loading the Gallery and you will see what I am talking about.

Seems like the 3d accell isn't working on it or is working very poorly
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paul627g:
Correct. No custom kernel because we have no source code.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paul627g:
It may be a bit slower. Remember, leaked build things are completely polished yet, but for what it is so far its good enough to hold me over until the next build/official release.

:D
[Epic 4G Android Development] bdbc:
Noticed this as well. Upstairs directly above my router I would always get 2 or 3 out of 3 lines, but after the change it was barely registering.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bdbc:
If you're still curious, I did a nandroid with EB13 and SRF 1.1.0, flashed to EE03 ROM and EE03 modem, then restored my SRF 1.1.0 backup, and EE03 was still the active modem post-restore. So yeah if you want to change your modem back to 'original settings', you'll just have to re-flash the original. Not a biggie really, but good to know.

Edit: Sorry about the multi-post. Still getting accustomed to using 'multi-quote'.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Phasma343:
blahblahblah. I read the OP, well aware.

I get the feeling this will be like the rest of the updates samsung/sprint have released. It will be another polished turd... no matter how shinny it is... still a turd.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tmuka:
I noticed in QIK that came with stock the switch camera menu item doesn't work. Using the samsung camera app the switch camera works, but the front image is rotated 90degrees...
[Epic 4G Android Development] leatherneck6017:
Mad props ACS!
[Epic 4G Android Development] DroidApprentice:
Even for us stock users, it sounds like the EE03 modem is worth flashing. Would you say it's worth a try? Possible to go back to EC05, of course?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Censura_Umbra:
I CAN'T WAIT! About to install now! I've been using "Leaky" as my daily just to use netflix, this sounds 10 times better!!

I will Reserve this for any updates about this install

EDIT:

I am very pleased with this ROM, My only issue is that is seems to be draining battery faster that I am used to and it lags quite a bit while multi-tasking.

THANK YOU!!!

I will be donating!!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
I read the instructions, so I know this is supposed to be flashed over stock EC05, but is that because this patches the existing system, or just to avoid issues from flashing over several different roms that may our may not cause problems?

Or more to the point for my situation (no access to my computer until later, and little patience, lol), can this be flashed over SFR as long as I reRFS first?
[Epic 4G Android Development] electronicmaji:
And the bump in the mans pants grew three sizes that day...
[Epic 4G Android Development] LakersEB:

Netflix works great with the APK posted, but the post says the market signature has been modified to see the protected apps, but Netflix is not showing up. Did I do something wrong?

Is there anyway to accomplish this computerless? My usb is being a ***** right now.

IE the MODEM
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Yes, and of course.

You don't even need to reRFS first. This will format you RFS.

Nope.

:D :D

You sure do - hence why that one's linked in OP. ;)

Not happening until official final!

It won't hurt you to run without the EE03 modem. It's a worthwhile upgrade when you can. Also, dump that stock cable.

[Epic 4G Android Development] steviee7:
ACS does not release syndicate roms based on leaks, only on full releases, so you'll have to wait for sprint to release EE12 sometime in mid june.
[Epic 4G Android Development] inimitableac:
Lol I dumped the stock usb last year idk wth wrong with this one. I'm praying for a flashable modem.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lafronz:
My 3G hasn't popped up yet but I show signal bars. Normal for it to take a while first boot? :confused:
[Epic 4G Android Development] bdbc:
90 degree rotation with the camera on a Samsung is a common occurrence. It's their fault. *points finger*
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paul627g:
Well if you read the OP and your well aware of it then don't be complaining. Its a leak build, period. Take it for what it is, be thankful that we were given a taste and a few add ons and even now some flashable mods to make it even better.

Froyo is only a flash away if your dissatisfied...;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] littlepr:
Ok, first of all I have to say nice work guys. Can't wait til source is out. Once question. Does the FM radio work?

[Epic 4G Android Development] DubzEm:
I have two question 1st) Why doesnt the remove ciq get rid of sprint id and all the bloatware i thought it was suppose to do that or am i wrong?? 2nd) has anybody been able to get launcher pro to work on this?? for some reason i cant
[Epic 4G Android Development] Phasma343:
I never said I was complaining, I was posting up the performance for others to see.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Phasma343:
Didn't try launcher pro, but ADW works fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] pixlz:
so far so good. a couple of bugs i notice is that when i'm in 4g area, when the 4g sleeps, it doesn't always wanna wake up, which freezes any data use on my phone.

also upon full charge light does not change from red to blue.

^_^; don't suppose any fixes are in the works?

other than that, phone seems to be ticking along okay.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Tahde:
Very nice! So far so good. Again, thanks again for what you guys have all done. This is great!
[Epic 4G Android Development] pvtjoker42:
So far I'm liking this leak. Been running all day. EE03 modem seems to make a difference (I spend most the day at work with little to no signal.) The only thing driving me up the wall is the keyboard being WAY too slow (again, like stock froyo.) I'm assuming the keyboard tweaks from the various other roms for Froyo were made possible because of the kernels so trying any of the various zip's to tweak keyboard speed are useless yes? If I could get better response from the keyboard, this thing would be virtually perfect until the official Gingerbread release comes out and gets properly tweaked (ext4, etc) So anybody know how I can adjust the keyboard for now?
[Epic 4G Android Development] bdbc:
CIQ is big-brother-type script embedded in practically ALL stock software and functionality on your phone. Read the 2nd (or 3rd?) post in thread SRF 1.1.0 for more info on that. Bloatware is whole pieces of software implanted on the phone by Samsung and/or Sprint, which are useless and/or money-grubbing and/or inefficient in their purpose, etc.

I used Launcher Pro on this just fine. It was one of the first things I did, since I am quite particular in the layout of my home screens. You can freeze TWLauncher once Launcher Pro is in place. You might even be able to uninstall it, but I haven't tried that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Phasma343:
TWLauncher can be uninstalled no problem.

GPS not working for me

i flashed the GPS fix twice and still no luck. if anyone has methods besides re-flashing the entire rom, let me know.

awesome work so far.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paul627g:
CIQ removal has nothing to do with the Sprint ID application or bloatware.

ADW EX works very nice with this.
[Epic 4G Android Development] twolostminds:
4G does the same freeze all data on sleep for me :/
[Epic 4G Android Development] tbob18:
Seems quite good, gps works and most other things seem fine.

The biggest problem I have is that when the screen is on, the CPU is pegged at 15-20% usage all the time (system), when the screen is off it jumps down to about 1-5% like normal, I am using system panel to monitor it.

I have tried freezing all kinds of stuff with titanium backup, just to see if it drops and then wiped 3x and flashed again with no luck.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dtugg:
I know that RFS is slower than EXT4 but is this mostly a benchmark thing or will I notice lower performance compared to SRF?
[Epic 4G Android Development] intheb0x:
i need some assistance really bad .

i downloaded that gps fix and went to flash it, when i went into clockwork recovery it converted everything to ext4/

now no matter what i do, i can flash anything or nandroid anything it goes right back to recovery when the phone is rebooted.

i cant do anything with it, it always goes back to recovery no matter what i flash or restore.

my phones been down since 1pm and im unsure what to do, this is the first time i had access to a computer.

is it time to odin?
[Epic 4G Android Development] urirx98:
deoxed EB13 to GINGERBREAD?

hey, just wanted to thank you for your work, u guys dont get thanked enough. My question is how do i install this since im on build " Supernova2.2.2.EB13" Kernel is 2.6.32.9 . I have never used ODIN before and was hoping i can just flash this ontop using CW2.5 or the newest version, i downloaded it but dontknow how to get it updated/, any help would be appreciated, thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] castro08:
Look at this, modem is awesome!
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecartmen:
for the people with issues with 4g i did this..... i started all over from the start...

odin to ec05

root the phone.

place phone into cw 3.x

flash ee03

reboot and when seeing samsung pull the battery

go into odin by doing 1+power buttons

odin modem have f.time and reboot checked

reboot

then 4g should be fine

turn on 4g and let it connect and test a web site

now turn off phone

go back into cw3

clear cache and reset phone options 3 times each

now flash the ciq removal

reboot

test 4g

turn phone off and go into cw3

clear cache and reset phone options 3 times each

now flash the over scroll

now reboot

test 4g and over scrool

turn phone off and go into cw3

clear cache and reset phone options 3 times each

now flash the fm radio.

now reboot and test 4g and all

FM radio may not work as it did not for me with stock headphones
[Epic 4G Android Development] RSPC:
Odin? YES... and please read through the OP first.
[Epic 4G Android Development] apatcas:
yeah... it's odin time. or you can try the reRFS trick
[Epic 4G Android Development] abrognlie:
So, everything was running great after I installed the rom (everything according to the FAQ and OP), but after about an hour, while I was re-downloading some apps, things went to hell.

The phone rebooted itself, and whenever I brought it back up, facebook would FC and give some strange error (something about *#999# .txt or something) and the phone's radio wouldn't work. It would initially report that it was in airplane mode, but if I took it out of airplane mode it still wouldn't turn on and acquire any kind of signal.

I'm going to redownload and reflash everything to see if that helps.

Oh, and before that, it would constantly ask me if roaming was OK, no matter how many times I clicked the "never ask again" box.

Hopefully the reflash fixes the issues, because it seemed like a great build up until that point.
[Epic 4G Android Development] intheb0x:
have read through the entire op and followed everything to spec.

im unsure why it reverted back to the 3.0.0.6 cwm.
[Epic 4G Android Development] intheb0x:
tried that (reRFS), i have that file on the sd card, in the end its back to 2.5.0.1 cwm and i restore RFS stock rooted nandroids and it still goes straight to cwm when rebooting

even if i load up the ext4 converter i flash a ext rom like SRF and it finishes like normal, then when rebooted goes right back to cwm like it didnt even take.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dandog96:
Hi, I'm sorry, I might have done somethng wrong but the rom is functioning realy slowly.... like touchwiz is slow... I did re rfs and wiped everything then flashed this rom. Help is apreciated
[Epic 4G Android Development] LakersEB:
The OP says to use 3.0.2.5, is there a reason you're not?

Edit: Also, I'm pretty sure an ext4 restore on 2.5.0.1 would lead exactly to the problem you're having (not booting).
[Epic 4G Android Development] intheb0x:
thats what i used lol, the one linked up. im unsure how it ended up back on 3.0.0.6?

anyways im Odin'ing now.

I reflashed the rom several times, never could get a gps lock. I then odined back to EC05 (reboot) and got a lock and then odin'd EE03 modem (reboot), flashed EE03 rom (no wipe), and GPS works flawlessly (I know it's not what you wanted).
[Epic 4G Android Development] musclehead84:

[Epic 4G Android Development] || Acer ||:
I feel bad for those who can't get GPS to work =\

I can't even drive yet and the GPS locks right on to my house instantly; I'm just running the EB13 modem and I haven't even flashed the GPS fix.
[Epic 4G Android Development] LakersEB:
When I was unable to get GPS to work I tried Sprint Nav (first time opening it, ha) and it would not work either.
[Epic 4G Android Development] LakersEB:
The GPS fix is no longer needed, was only needed for those who downloaded the ROM before k0nane built it in.
[Epic 4G Android Development] || Acer ||:
I'm pretty sure I'm one of those people since I downloaded the ROM within the first 5 minutes it was released from the first mirror that doesn't seem to be available anymore.

But, I could be wrong.
[Epic 4G Android Development] FrameCityJackal:
Cant send texts...I get a network setup error 2112 its telling me to call customer service.

Only started to happen after I dld touchwiz 4.0 and GPS
[Epic 4G Android Development] squshy 7:
Yeah no gps here either, even with the updated rom...so I'll probably try going to ec05 and back...

Is odin required to get back to ec05 or can I just flash the rerfs version?

[Epic 4G Android Development] intheb0x:
Ok,

im back up and running with this rom,

i flashed the gps fix and my gps is now working, i seen the lil location icon pop up when it was giving me some directions, when before it was just searching.

all is well again LOL
[Epic 4G Android Development] || Acer ||:
Just realized I can't receive texts. I can send them, though...

Could updating the modem fix this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] FrameCityJackal:
Yep yepperz :/
[Epic 4G Android Development] ydoucare:
That's what I had to do also.

I know at least one other person has mentioned this, but anyone else notice some pretty bad choppyness in touchwiz (homescreen and app drawer), as well as scrolling through menus (settings for example)?

I'm guessing it might be related to the processes that are eating CPU cycles as shown in the screenshot below. Been doing this constant since I flashed last night, so I started over from scratch a couple hours ago from stock EC05, but still a lot of CPU usage from those same processes. Everything works fine other than that, GPS locks solid, etc, but this problem still persists. Just wondering if anyone could confirm whether they see the same thing on theirs?

Basically the last 3 processes in the list: Android System, events/0, gp2a_wq
[Epic 4G Android Development] LakersEB:
