really enjoying this rom, noticed that my memory is usually pretty low, was this to be expected? my gps didnt seem to want to lock, even though i installed the fix, im gonna get outdoors today and really test it out to be certain. other then that everything seems to be working for me.. hope to see a 'remastered' version soon
[Epic 4G Android Development] running_the_dream:
I only use PDA also when flashing the modem.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecartmen:
I had the same issue with with data dropping when I did not flash to the ee03 modem. I still have the same issue with the ee03 modem eve after starting from ec05
[Epic 4G Android Development] steviee7:
love the rom :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] jjjjayd13:
Trying now, and I must say this is 'really' smooth.

Everything for me is working and thanks for removing sprint stuff!

jjjjayd13, :cool:
[Epic 4G Android Development] siirus09:
Well since ACS split, INC/k0 is taking a break and it hasnt updated in ages, I think Ill move here and see how midNIGHT ROM does. Ive always been curious but had no reason to move till now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ungovernable1977:
Hmmmm... think im gonna reflash...battery life is whack, think I need to recalibrate. So I guess the FM Radio is up there with the 'reset button'? Pardon my ignorance, but anyone flash zips off the midnight extras folder? The adBlocking zip??? Are they not compatible with GB? When GB is done and gets its proper tweaks....gonna be like a new phone. Hopefully tide me over till I can get an SGS2... I think the Epic name really cursed us for Epic drama... wow.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Overstew:
I really really really really really want to try this but I depend on my gps too much. If u need any help figuring it out, let me know. I may not be a big help since I don't do roms, but it's the thought that counts. ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] LucJoe:
Go to the acs ee03 thread and download/flash their gpsfix. Worked for me

Only problem I'm having is getting wifi tether to work with 4g. It seems to be set up to disable 4g when there is an active wifi connection... which makes sense most of the time but breaks tethering. 3g tether works fine.

Maybe a wired tether would fix it. Anyone know a wired tether apk that works with this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Overstew:
I heard the dev for the WiFi tether app can't solve the bug (as stated by K0nane). So unfortunately, we're stuck with 3G tethering for now. ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Marlinsfan88:
any chance someone can post a link to the gps fix? was on the ACS forum lookin but couldnt find it even with the search tool. i too depend on GPS from time to time but id rather fix than flash back to EC05 cuz im loving this netflix bro =D

edit - NEVERMIND! i found it lol im blind as a bat =P for future refference for others its right on the first post. i thought it would have a bigger link down with the no CIQ mod but its just a small side note guys incase anyone is havin trouble finding it
[Epic 4G Android Development] schlag:
Thanks ptfdmedic. Your midnight roms are wonderful and have been my daily drivers this year! I love the style of your roms, and grateful for the work of yourself and all the community who keep this work & passion alive!

Gratitude
[Epic 4G Android Development] ungovernable1977:
for those looking for sprint voicemail a couple pages back, go to lostandtired.com and look thru the Dev page for MidNight Extras v5... put that on the root of your SD and flash from cwm. I just did, having account verification error, idunno if its my halfassed setup of google voice, or my horrible sprint signal at home... ill edit this if its a no go, but it looks to work fine. Next experiment... adblocking zip....
[Epic 4G Android Development] walord:
Which version of wifi tether are you using? v.2 or v.3? v.3 which has infrastructure mode requires sprint hotspot to function with 4g, so if hotspot is stripped from this rom 4g tether won't work.

P
[Epic 4G Android Development] LucJoe:
3.0 pre14. Supposedly that's the recommended version? So I have to use infrastructure mode to get it working? I'll try it...

Edit: nothing about infrastructure mode in the options... any tips?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
Guys I will post the gingerbread sprint voice mail when I get a chance today.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Marlinsfan88:
thanks rob, couldnt find one that was compatible with the rom. kept gettin error, install aborted when i would try and flash through CWM
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
Guys please see the OP for the VM apk. Please let me know if that works.. If it does then I'll zip it up.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dtm_stretch:
I just installed it and tested it, it works.

Thank for the help testing the vm. I zipped it up and attached it to the OP.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JasonWelbourne:
This and all of the EE03 roms seem to have some sort of issue with busybox. On the previous leak I used nitrality to adjust my DPI. I tried installing it and doing the same thing once I got EE03 up and running and it wouldn't work. After contacting the developer to try to resolve the issue, I tried switching to both of the other EE03 roms. Same behavior on both of those. The underlying issue seems to be that all shell scripts are being run through sh instead of busybox. There does not seem to be any way to spawn a busybox shell on this system. It also does not appear to be possible to update busybox.

Has anyone else experienced these issues? Is there a fix?
[Epic 4G Android Development] :
So does this ROM have the stock Android messaging and browser apps, it does it still have the touchwiz ones? And what exactly do you mean by fully removed Sprint and TouchWiz? Do you mean stock Calendar and Calculator, or everything?
[Epic 4G Android Development] kstephens98:
Yeah, I tried to update busybox without success.
[Epic 4G Android Development] eyecannon:
Big thanks for the voicemail fix!

I flashed it it work... A little to buggy .. wanted to try re-flash.. but CWM recovery is gone and all the one click roots/CWM installs do not work... HELP I cant find direction on flashing manually
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
Slow down :).... Now what are we talking about the ROM or the VW.zip?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rstouder:
I flashed the GB Rom.... it works 4G/WIFi random reboots etc.. but ok... Howerver when I flashed the GB ROM it replaced the recovery program and now I cannt do anything... the GB Rom changed the ID for ROM Manager will not install the correct CWM and I cannt get any of the one step root/CWM installes to work.. I cannt find a adb way to manually install CWM... I have access via ADB odin does not have correct drivers.... HELP!

OK Got ODIN to work going back to stock now.... Then I'll try again..... HTC EVO not as hard to deal with....
[Epic 4G Android Development] runner77:
What are the steps to get the phone back to midNIGHT v5.3?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Devi0124:
Just flash the rom. It should auto convert to ext4. You may want to odin the ec05 modem but everything else is doable from cwm 3.0.2.5
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
NO NO NO. As k0nane stated in the original release and as the title states, RFS ONLY. Ext4 is NOT supported at this point.
[Epic 4G Android Development] walord:
Wifi Tether 3.0 pre14 which uses infrastructure mode (by default) will work as long as you have "Sprint Hotspot" installed on the phone.

If this rom removes Sprint Hotspot, you'll need to use v2.x of Wireless Tether which is AdHoc only but should work with 4G as well.

With either program you need to start with 4G off; start tether; then enable 4G.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Gorguts:
Netflix

No go on netflix here, how is everybody else doing? I get a black screen and then if you wait long enough...a force close. If I hit home its business as usual and otherwise the rom is pretty legit. didint test gps yet...keep yah posted.

My man, killer job on this release, your roms produce the least issues for me thus far....keep it going.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bricky23:
Just uninstall, then reinstall. You can find the apk file at acs swisscheese.
[Epic 4G Android Development] running_the_dream:
I agree
[Epic 4G Android Development] Marlinsfan88:
mines keeps sayin device is not netflix capable. was runnin fine before i flashed this ROM, not sure what could have happened. anyone have a compatible version of the netflix apk? i know it has to be spoofed or something to run properly on our devices cuz ive had it workin before, unless netflix changed something on their end? anyone else have input?
[Epic 4G Android Development] LucJoe:
Go to acs "swiss cheese samsprint" thread. The apk is in first or second post. Uninstall from system before installing new one...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Marlinsfan88:
ahhh awesome thanks bro

edit - netflix up and runnin at 100% over here now =D

Words with Friends Shuffle Sensitivity

I tried searching but found nothing - the shuffle sensitivity in Words With Friends is pretty ridiculous. In pre-Gingerbread I've run /system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha (Settings > Display > Horizontal calibration doesn't really do the trick), but that doesn't appear to be available any more. Any suggestions?
[Epic 4G Android Development] drakens6:
Hey pftdmedic,

nice job on the rom, btw.

I don't know if anyone else was having this trouble, but the default gingerbread Email APK was reaaaallly slow on loading emails for me (exchange).

What I did was:

Ripped the Fascinate Email.apk from 5.3

Put it in my SDX backup folder

Restored w/ SDX (root explorer never seems to do the trick for me)

Reboot, and voila! Email that doesnt suck.

Just figured I'd share my exp.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DubzEm:
I've been running this rom for a few days now and so far I love it, good job guys!

The only issue I'm having is when I power my phone off for some reason I have to pull my battery to get it to turn back on. Anyone else having this problem or should I just re-flash?

Epic Midnight Gingerbread

any chance to get the hardware keyboard patch working on the GB Roms?
[Epic 4G Android Development] jdelano:
Pretty sure this will have to wait until the final GB release and source being available.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jdelano:
Saw this over on the EE03 swiss cheese thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14065419&postcount=1463

they're experiencing the same thing; having changed notification sounds to a sound on the SD Card ... might that fit your issue??

Hope that helps
[Epic 4G Android Development] RushAOZ:
So I couldn't resist amd I flashed this lol a few things.

For the first time ever I didn't need to run the sensor lag fix. The notification bar has never been this smooth. I haven't experienced any lag bad enough to make me revert to clone aosp. But I do notice ui jittering and stuttering here and there I'm typing on the keyboard now... no mistakes or skips. But I think its because I'm not typing fast enough. So far I'm loving gb and the added options its giving. I assume ui acceleraton isn't enabled yet?

is there anyway to enable add block like the other roms
[Epic 4G Android Development] showmrock:
Only one quirk with this ROM......I changed the background wallpaper but the lockscreen is retaining the old wallpaper....anyway to change this/fix it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Grompy:
Can't wait to try this out! Downloading now :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] shiftr182:
I pulled the host file out of syndicate and put it in this (thats where the add blocking is). I have attached a zip file you can flash in cwm, or you can just extract the hosts file and use root explorer to transfer it to /system/etc or put it in the rom before flashing.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mugen678:
Would you mind sharing the apk? I'd appreciate it. It would save me the time of downloading a rom on this slow connection on the work computer....

Is anyone else having a huge battery drain from 3G constantly being active?

I've tried toggling airplane mode on and off, I've tried toggling data mode on and off, those don't seem to work. I've got as many background apps that I don't need killed from running. Running the EE03 modem that this is intended for as well. Something is still doing something over 3G I think but I could be wrong.

Edit: yesterday was the worst incident of this. In a half hour I dropped to 75% remaining.

Going to do a battery calibration and see if that helps.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dbx097:
nul

Removed. My sincerest apologies.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
Not the place for propaganda or conspiracy. But allow me to educate you with actual facts.

There are 2 types of mercury, Ethyl Mercury and Methyl Mercury. Ethyl mercury leaves the body very rapidly. Meaning it does NOT collect in the body. Mercury causes brain damage only through long-term exposure (a fact that gave us the phrase ‘as mad as a hatter‘). Thus if the body is cleaning itself quickly of the ethyl mercury, it doesn’t have the chance to build up and cause damage. Ethyl mercury was found in VERY SMALL amounts in Thimerosal. Thimerosal was removed from vaccines over 10 years ago not because it was harmful but because everyone was freaking out over it and not vaccinating their kids. In an attempt to address the concerned parents it was removed. Thimerosal "toxicity occurs at 100-1000 times the dose that was found in vaccines. Guess what, Autism numbers are still climbing after Thimerosal's removal.

Methyl mercury is found in industrial waste NOT vaccines. Also found in fish and sea food. This type of mercury is very toxic because it DOES collect in the body, particularly the brain. This DOES cause damage. No arguments there.

There IS NO mercury in vaccines any more (I think MAYBE one flu shot is left). The reason You won't find the info you provided in scientific journals is because there is NO science behind. You do a HUGE disservice to society by spreading irrational fear. There have been damages paid for vaccine injuries. These are caused because a particular person has an unknown preexisting condition that reacts to or is triggered by the vaccine. The last time I checked 80 people had been compensated. That's 80 people (while tragic) out of the 100's of millions vaccinated. Population control, really? Because of this type of paranoia 1,000's of children are dying each year now from diseases that were once defeated.

You need to understand that by promoting this false information you are helping no one. There is NO conspiracy and no government cover up. People like you cannot wrap your brains around the fact that we simply DO NOT KNOW what causes Autism. You guys said it was mercury in the vaccines. Mercury was removed and Autism rates are still climbing. Then you guys said it was the vaccines. Parents stopped vaccinating their kids. Not only have Autism rates continued to climb but now kids are dying from whooping cough and measles. When does this insanity end. The truly sad part is that vaccines work best when everyone is vaccinated. People like you put other peoples kids at risk. I take this very personally because ignorance like this is literally killing people.

Please keep your paranoia to yourself post it somewhere that promotes the use of tin foil hats. Not here.......in a ROM thread that is simply trying to promote Autism Awareness.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Uthman:
I learned something new again about Autism today
[Epic 4G Android Development] rygran87:
Exceptionally well put!

Back on topic. This ROM is very smooth. I had lag issues with the Swiss Cheese EE03, but this seems to have fixed it perfectly. I truly appreciate your hard work. I've read your blog several times and admire yourdedication in al aspects of your life. Keep spreading Autism Awareness and sharing your stories. Thank you a thousand times, sir!

Can someone point me to how to install and remove .apk's?

I have been looking thru the site and can't seem to find a how-to...I checked the wiki page and the only thing I found there was what can and cannot be removed, but not how to do it.

Thanks.
[LG Optimus 2x] nomedor:
This seems to be the best solution if you just want to stock mounting in cm7, I don't know if build.prop changes with every new nightly so you'll probably have to edit it after every flash.
[LG Optimus 2x] TheMorpheus:
That's why it didn't works!

Thanks for bring it up! I hope someone will help you becouse the way stock roms mount sd card is way better!
[LG Optimus 2x] gaeng4665:
pushing it up, since this here is an interesting topic. It does indeed make more sense to mount sdcards like the stock roms mount it...

Hopefully someone can figure this out.

Also i noticed that if you do not mount emmc/_ExternalSD it gets recognised by the pc and otherwise not. This could be coincidence since i'm struggling hard with mounting my sdcards to my mac...
[LG Optimus 2x] nomedor:
Unfortunately you are right, after this trick pc can only see the external sd card!

Maybe this isn't the right way to do it or somehow it needs to automatically unmount before you connect the phone on pc and then on disconnect remount it again.

Sadly my knowledge is limited, but I think that a real developer can do it in a heartbeat.
[LG Optimus 2x] freerunner:
I'm not a real developer, but I remember that the modified fstab has to be put inside the kernel ramdisk.

I have found these two perl scripts somewhere on the net. They can be used to extract and repack the boot image. Could be possible that the base address has to be modified to work on the O2x, haven't tried it myself yet.

Zip including the scripts are here:

h t t p ://tuxfighter.de/Share/Scripts/

___
[LG Optimus 2x] webstar1:
This is easy peasy lemon squeezy :p. For me at least since ex-dev.

Instructions:

Get root explorer (cba giving adb commands on my phone)

Mount r/w

Go to etc/vold.fstab

Mount r/w again

Long press the file and click open in text editor

Now at the bottom swap the mounts. Sdcard to /mnt/emmc

And

emmc to /mnt/sdcard

Save and exit.

Delete backup and reboot.

I will post a flashable zip if you want soon.

DONT FORGET TO THANK ME! :)

EDIT: just read first post properly. It should work on every boot. It is for me on my g2x. Try my easy method
[LG Optimus 2x] nomedor:
The problem is that I can't find a way to mount external SD in "/sdcard/_externalSD" from vold.fstab where /sdcard is internal memory, just like stock rom.

It should be possible...
[LG Optimus 2x] webstar1:
Have a look at the stock vold then
[LG Optimus 2x] ranrick:
I copied stock vold into CM7 and i got neither internal SD nor external SD then.
[LG Optimus 2x] TheMorpheus:
I've already tried that. I can't understand why people are not interested in this :(
[LG Optimus 2x] ranrick:
yeah, there are almost no applications which can use /mnt/emmc. So 1 partition is almost useless at current situation.
[LG Optimus 2x] Sckank:
Any progress?
[LG Optimus 2x] webstar1:
Y dont u put all your pics,videos and music in emmc and leave sdcard for application data?
[LG Optimus 2x] katun79:
Because we have to do It for EVERY new photo/Video :(
[LG Optimus 2x] nomedor:
Stock's ROM vold.fstab is mounting /sdcard/_externalSD but this is not working on CyanogenMOD, it could be a CM7 "problem" after all!
[LG Optimus 2x] katun79:
No update? CM7 way to mount sd sucks IMHO! :(
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
if you want to test it (please do a nand backup before!), than try my kernel and add the -internal flag to it.

Download this

rename to vorkKernel-080611-internal.zip

and flash it.

It is untested, because I don't want this behaivour and I made it because a user requested it. So no gurantee that it will work etc.
[LG Optimus 2x] nomedor:
Bennee:

From what i see in vold.fstab file in the flashable zip it only swaps paths...

Any luck mounting external sd in "/mnt/sdcard/_externalSD" ?
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
there is a additional mounting script + some permission fixes. Should be called on every boot up (mount /mnt/emmc /mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD).
[LG Optimus 2x] krogoth:
But it doesn't... _ExternalSD is empty with your kernel.
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
ok 2 ideas left. Will update post with two zips.

Edit:

Added the flag for you

Test1

Test2
[LG Optimus 2x] krogoth:
Sorry... Both of them doesn't work...
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
Than a custom ramdisk needs to be created. Hrm I had hope that it was easier :D
[LG Optimus 2x] krogoth:
Welll... Terminal scripting works correctly. Init.d is just applying scripts too early, before the commands from vend file are applied and system mounts them.

I think that simle script which will wait ~2min after boot to apply "mount /mnt/emmc /mnt/sdcard/_externalSD" would be enought. Of course _externalSD folder must be crated before that.

I will look into it, if I will find some time.
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
Ohh that's a easy one... I will do a update tomorrow ;)

Edit: ok new one Link (a check if _ExternalSD folder is there will be added later)
[LG Optimus 2x] katun79:
I'll try to modify my init.d/mount script.

I'll post here if that will fix! ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
Should be fixed with test3. Added a sleep 240 (2 min sleep then execute script).
[LG Optimus 2x] krogoth:
Kernel test3 is not booting up. Maybe You added sleep to boot sequence? :)
[LG Optimus 2x] ranrick:
confirmed +1
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
erm nope :D new Script (without the dir check thing)

Hrm without a flag it is booting fine (so it isn't kernel related : / ). But anyway. Something changed. The script isn't ignored anymore.
[LG Optimus 2x] krogoth:
But if You will put sleep in Init.d shouldn't it halt whole boot proces for 240s? Will device continue booting with this?
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
Argh. I found a way.. :D just wait a bit. Need to adjust some stuff in my script
[LG Optimus 2x] krogoth:
I hope You will succed :)

If it will not work. We can make small apk, with permission to wait for BOOT_COMLETED or time triggered and let it execute terminal script. :)

For now I'm using a small walkaround. Instaled terminal from market and added su and mount as _externalsd to initial command :D Now i have to just run terminal after each reboot. It's better than nothing :P
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
Test4

Best flash it after a fresh cm update. It should work... hopefully or I need to go into awesome experimenting mode...
[LG Optimus 2x] salvatore94:
I've found this line in build.prop of CM7:

# Mount the internal SD card, too
ro.additionalmounts=/mnt/emmc
[LG Optimus 2x] krogoth:
Flashed over existing build, doesn't work, Will try with clean later.
[LG Optimus 2x] krogoth:
After changing this, external is still not mounted, and emmc is even empty
[LG Optimus 2x] Benee:
ok but the mounting is working?

Edit: The problem is, that the ext sdcard is mounted, after the complete system is up. The mounting from scripts or such stuff is done way before this point. In other words the script way won't work.

If you guys are using tasker I can recommand the execute plugin. You could add a new task there. This would be the best way.. no work is needed etc. I could setup a tasker profile for you, if you want ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] salvatore94:
But we can edit the original mountpoint of the external card?

For example, now the internal memory is mount to /mnt/sdcard while the external memory is mounted to /mnt/emmc. We can mount it directly to /mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD ?

Is easier than mount ext memory to /mnt/emmc and then to /mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD
