So this is intersting

I was running this ROM and something stupid happened so I decided to reflash. Now the ROM will not install. Everything goes as it should: Odin, CW3, GPS lock, Reboot, Wipe all 3...x's3, ROM installs, reboot; But, then I get the Sammy screen and a vibration sequence of buzz buzz buzz......buzz. 3 quick buzzes then a sec pause then another buzz. 3 secs later the sequence continues.

I have reflashed, wiped again then reflashed, re dloaded all of the files and started from scratch and still no luck.

I can install my last Froyo backup and it works, and I can flash to any other ROM fine.....any ideas?

Maybe if I didn't get the quote from this thread I could agree with you. Like I said, no one likes to read. I am sorry for the length however, my apologies for that...but then again don't read it and scroll on....

Yep. If you go to the link I put a few posts before yours. I outlined everything I did to get up and running with midNight 6

good luck

Galaxy tuner ftw..

This is by far the stupidest post I have read today sorry for the harshness...for lack of a better word right now......that's why i cannot shy away from it....but I will simplify...the 911 **** is too funny that you mention...pure science..... not opinions refute that craziness very easily....2ndly gay marriage and abortion, vaccines are put out there for the sheep to follow...there is plenty of info on what is really going on you just have to dig a little deeper and stop letting the media direct you...basically dont be a sheep....

Wifi on WILL save your battery. I noticed this morning after leaving home I stopped by our warehouse to pickup some keg shells and made my way in to the brewery where I work. Replied to a couple emails on my phone, made a short call and my battery was still at 100%. Unheard of on any ROM for me after nearly 2 hours since being charged. I noticed the Wifi available icon and turned of my wifi thinking it would drain the battery but after another hour with Wifi off it was dow to 43%. Read the post about Wifi saving battery so I swapped to a freshly charged battery turned on wifi (not connected to it tho) and holy crap.... 2 more hours and still at 100%.

Seriously, try it!!!

Droped keystrokes are driving me insane and miss voodoo but loving the battery life. You don't even have to be connected to Wifi and the first I was commuting 30 miles to work so I am sure it was scanning all the networks along I-5 in Tacoma... I know it makes no sence but I ain't gonna argue with it.

Re: the post above me... did you really have to qoute the entire thing just to call it stupid?? That's just as bad as bringing politicial rants into this "development" forum.

Oh, and what hurts?
[Epic 4G Android Development] maxertx:
Installed last night.. works great.. fixed GPS as you stated and also the Netflix. Great job and THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! \m/
[Epic 4G Android Development] adrift02:
Jdelano is correct in that this method will yeild the best results especially in squashing bugs that may pop up.

However, if you are on swisscheese and ee03 you can 3x flash this rom, it's not going to break anything. If you run into issues like I did with GPS, then try going the long route (I had to reflash and cycle modems, though I didn't need to go full ee05 stock).
[Epic 4G Android Development] jok3sta:
Im curious.. how much better is this than the swiss cheese rom.. i installed the swiss cheese rom when it first came out and it was very laggy and buggy. To the point where i had to go back to srf 1.1.. i figure since this iss till ee03 it will be the same bugs.. let me know your experiences..

Tapatalkin' it from my Epic 3g
[Epic 4G Android Development] sponge66:
Has anyone had any luck with the GPS. Flashed the fix but still nothing. This is the second time I've started over to try and resolve this ... any ideas.. I'm out of them :)

[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
BTW.....the wifi deal has been known to help battery for a very long time now....as was said enable never to sleep in spare parts and you are good to go...there will be no extra drain...I have been using this method for months...thought everyone know about it....it is helpful because the phone is not searching for 3g signal....
[Epic 4G Android Development] neuton:
I am still on 5.3 but I looked in spare parts where u said and it was setup exactly like you mentioned so I guess rob had it already like that by default. However is still get very horrible battery life even after I calibrate or use it from full charge. Any ideas?

Also even after using the reboot option I know the first time its used it kills battery cause of a bug, however I used a couple of times and still completely kills battery down to the last bar
[Epic 4G Android Development] adrift02:
Yea, I had a lot of trouble but got it t work. After a number of flashes I ended up dropping down to acs 1.1.1 w/ec05, flashing cheesecake and getting a lock w/ee03, then moving to this. But, if you have troubles still follow the full ec05 stock method. I don't know if it was the lock on cheesecake that fixed it or switching around modems...maybe both.
[Epic 4G Android Development] adrift02:
Hrm please explain how 3g isn't connected/searching and in use when wifi isn't connected. If you're driving down the road it's using both. Periods FTW lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Ok I worded that wrong:eek:....it has an option when wifi is enabled..its not constantly searching for 3g is what I should have said...lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] jdelano:
This version of EE03 has bloatware removed, so it's a little faster than the stock to version.

[Epic 4G Android Development] samuraiinblack:
Logic would dictate this, but for some reason this defies logic worse than some of my relatives. :p

My work has wifi, but it is NOT connected to the network. It is a secured network that I don't have rights to access outside of our computers and handheld scanners. Even then I am not connected to them and I am not prompted for wifi networks in the area. I've driven everywhere locally and over the highway, and even been inside restaurants with wifi. Even when I refuse to hop onto the network there, I am not prompted past the initial scan where it picks up a new open network. I don't hop on because I am not a fan of open networks where anyone can get on and most likely see everything. I only hop onto a public network if I can't get 3G inside the building for some reason. That said, I am pretty much on 3G for most of the day unless I am home for the day or at the gym.

Prior to this fix, the 3G radio was constantly active, to the point where in a half hour fresh off the charger it ate 25% of my charge. Now I hardly get any 3G activity unless I use an app that needs a net connection.

Are you using the right CWM? If you are using the one that converts to ext4 there is your problem. This rom is RFS only. I'm only stating this because folks around here are so used to having ext4 that for them its second nature to assume it will work. In my case, a few flashes ago, I forgot this was RFS only and made the mistake of trying to flash back to an ext4 rom temporarily to get a GPS lock. lol

Agreed. The reason why it isn't known is because some folks don't like to read, and other folks look at that and go "THIS DEFIES LOGIC! NO!" and leave it be. lol I know because I was part of the latter group until I was like eh what the hell, give it a shot, worst that happens is it doesn't fix anything. After losing 25% battery in a half hour run from the 3G radio going ballistic, I figured I had nothing to lose that I wasn't already losing. I have to say the wifi never sleep fix works, at least for me.

Try setting it to Android default first in Spare parts. Then hit it again and set it to Never. I've noticed some things I set in certain apps need to be set again after flashing, even if I have the settings backed up via Titanium Backup, so this might be a similar deal. When I first flashed this ROM, no green dot was set in any of the 3 options for wifi sleep policy, so it may be a YMMV deal.

I'm not going to claim I know anything about how the hardware works. All I can tell you from my experience is that prior to this fix, my 3G radio was going ballistic even if I was in an area where I was well within reception range (full bars, outside, cloudless day) and the arrows were blinking like it was trying to tell me something in Morse code. AFTER this fix, my 3G radio is silent for the most part. I will get the occasional blip unless I am running an app that uses a net connection and that's it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] neuton:
@samuraiinblack

I did what you suggested but when I went back into the policy to change it back to never it was already set there, I think rob has it setup to always go to never because I.set default but when I look it says never?
[Epic 4G Android Development] samuraiinblack:
That's odd. When I went to do it to mine I didn't have anything set at all. Not even Android default.
[Epic 4G Android Development] neuton:
I think it was a problem from when I flashed from 5.2 to 5.3. So I used TI backup and cleared the data and I was able to do it. Now I have to see how it handles the battery. I just fully charged it. And I took off some widgets to see.

Netflix not working

I'm also having troubles with Netflix not working. I've uninstalled and reinstalled it time after time and it keeps saying the same ol' thing...New version of application is found, you must upgrade to be able to use application. It takes me to market and then says...The requested item could not be found. Any help is well appreciated.
[Epic 4G Android Development] iceman19631:
How the hell you get Netflix fixed?!? I been beating myself up trying to get it working.
[Epic 4G Android Development] adrift02:
Are you installing the ACS swisscheese netflix.apk? The one that comes with this rom doesn't work for me but that one does.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:

[Epic 4G Android Development] iceman19631:
As a matter of fact I am....I uninstalled the one that came with this rom and installed the one from ACS swisscheese. Same ol' same ol'. Almost had it at fisrt but it said I needed to have Silverlight installed. After that, I couldn't get it working.
[Epic 4G Android Development] iceman19631:
Tried that as well, but, there is no Netflix on Market. Not unless it's under a different name. Care to explain in detail how you actually did get it working? And without having to install Silverlight?

[Epic 4G Android Development] buggerritt:
Is it just me or is Launcher Pro really laggy and freezing up for everyone? the homescreen goes black with no widgets or icons and after many seconds, it comes back. It seems like it only happens when it rotates. It seems to happen almost every time it rotates, too. I unchecked auto rotation and it seems to not freeze up. Apps seem to auto rotate fine. It's just homescreen that causes a problem for me. It still freezes sometimes when I open the keyboard and then close it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] adrift02:
Hey iceman, sorry just realized last night that netfix was updated. There is an official netflix apk thread floating around that has the new updated version along with patches to enable it in the market. Check the ACS swisscheese thread, someone linked it (last page, 167).
[Epic 4G Android Development] adrift02:
This is just something you will have to live with until someone posts a new fix. The filesystem must have changed with gingerbread because the old "rotation lag fix" method (forced recalibration in terminal emu) doesn't work anymore. For now just go to the LP preferences and disable rotation.

[Epic 4G Android Development] mr_wrong_0:
Yeah I have no GPS at all, but to be honest I haven't missed it too bad. I'll be glad to have it back when we get an official build but for a beta-leak I'm surprised that it's so close good. I've been using it as my daily driver now for weeks and aside from random restarts and no GPS it's been pretty awesome. I can't get enough of the CRT screen off animation lol. I do miss the Epic unlock screen from the swiss cheese sam/sprint rom. I actually like it over the AOSP one. :eek:
[Epic 4G Android Development] mlee0921:
CONFIRMED!
[Epic 4G Android Development] adrift02:
I'm not 100% sure but in the swiss cheese thread I think someone posted a patch for a new boot animation and the old lock screen.

Also, GPS will work for everyone with this rom. It's just a matter of dropping back to an ec05 modem/rom and insuring when you come back you get a gps lock with ec03 using another rom like ACS swisscheese before reflashing this. I don't know which part of the process fixes GPS to be exact but I can gurantee that jdelano's guide will fix it if nothing else proves successfull.
[Epic 4G Android Development] adrift02:
Ok, since the questions keep coming up, I thought I would re-post links to the fixes to make it easy for everyone. I take credit for none of this. I've applied all of these fixes to this rom so they work. Now I just need a new fix for the rotation lag so Words with Friends doesn't shuffle forever :-\

New boot + shutdown animations (much better than stock sprint and stays till the phone is completely off) + camera button fix

[Epic 4G Android Development] jdelano:
I just tried it on mine, it worked OK.

There's a free app on the market called vlingo, it actually works much better than the voice search stock app.

It could be the fact that I have that app installed that makes voice search work but I doubt it.

But give vlingo a try

GPS

I'm missing how to get GPS functional. I've followed directions as far as they go but GPS doesn't start when requested. I'm also seeing an odd bug where the "desktop" is blank until I open the app tray. I apologize in advance if these problems hvae already been addressed or if I'm just a complete asshole and did something wrong.

I love this ROM, but I need GPS. If there is a GPS answer please let me know :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mort3987:
Thanks for the help. I did finally figure out what the problem was though. I removed the stock browser apk, and I guess voice search needs it to work. That's what was causing the crash. Vlingo does have quite a few nice features so I might move to that anyways. Anyways, thanks again.

great rom

I only have a couple of problems with it one of them is not due to the rom and not sure about the other but my main concern is that the GPS does not work at all. The other is netflicks but that is because they did a upgrade and it won't download says file can't be found but other then that this is the best rom build yet that I have used thanks for all your hard work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] revjtanton:
I'm having the same issues.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Dante of the Inferno:
Say, has anyone experienced slow performance or battery life issues? I was listening to music earlier in Winamp (with the screen off for most of the time) for about 80-90 minutes tops and I made 2 phone calls. The phone dropped from 98% to 70% in that amount of time. It seems to last pretty well when in standby, but all bets are off when actual applications run. Now, I just ran a Quadrant test, and the highest it gets is 1095. Is it just because the kernel isn't optimized or overclocked? Again, it would be great if the battery would at least last 24 hours with light usage.
[Epic 4G Android Development] alynch:
That seems to be par for the course for anyone running EE03, regardless of ROM flavor. My own experience has shown very, very odd battery and charging patterns. Like dropping from 100% to 79% in minutes, occasionally.

Most of us who've been using EE03 day in and day out are dealing with the horrific battery life, and schlepping around chargers and/or microUSB cables as we go about our day. I'm pretty close to going back to EC05 because of it, however.

[Epic 4G Android Development] jdelano:
Once gingerbread is released with the source code that developers here will be able to do their magic on the kernel and android to improve battery life and speed.

These are the types of things that you see when you are using a beta version of software.

Mid call reboot

I have been using this version for a few weeks.

Everything has been working well, albeit at a slower pace (it isn't optimized like v5 because it is a leak and there is no source)

My first real issue happened today, I have had no major problems, all voice mail and texts (I use handcent too) come across just fine.

I was on a phone call for about 20 minutes; the phone vibrated a few times (that means things are force closing) and then the phone rebooted itself.

I haven't seen if anyone else has had that happen, anyone?

test drive

i've been using this rom for only a short time and although i had absolutely no problems, everything was working, the battery life just wasn't good enough for me. i also found that it didn't offer me anything over froyo. i don't need a lot of stuff. i just need few things to work really well. great job on the build though. i'm sure i'll try it again in the future.
[Epic 4G Android Development] kshah:
This is a problem of EE03. I face similar problem on stock EE03 as well. It happens almost on all long duration calls.
[Epic 4G Android Development] birdturbo:
Alright so I've been running the ROM for the past couple of weeks and these are the bugs I've run into:

Phone randomly decides to reboot.

Notification light doesn't work. It does when charging, just not when I have a text or missed call, etc.

Cannot send MMS while on wifi.

Netflix still doesn't work all the way. I can log on and search for videos. I just can't watch any.

LauncherPro force closes a lot.

Battery absolutely takes a huge dump while I'm on a phone call.

Hitting the camera button wakes up the device.

But overall, I'm still in love with this ROM. The CRT animation and overscroll glow are too sexy. And I love the green touches on the notification bar. I don't think I'll be going back to Froyo any time soon :)
