Flashed over 1.1.1, I just wiped caches just to be safe, but left my data intact. Works like a DREAM. Only lock screen I have issues on is the 4 corners one, but I always had issues with that.

For those of you whining about not finding a video... Read the OP? Fully? And other bugs? uh... Modded software. It is gonna happen. That is all there is to it.

All in all, this thing works FLAWLESS, and is MUCH faster than my last flash of 1.1.1. Am definitely looking forward to what you guys are doing with GB!

On a side note. My girl got an Epic (FINALLY) last week and 1.1.1 was giving me issues on the flash. Gonna give this a whirl on her phone tomorrow night and go apechit. Love the puzzle lock screen, I think that did it for her! lol.

Think I am going to flash Genocide, because my SetCPU still limits me at 1300... Unless Genocide was the kernel for 1.1.1 (as that was the only other ROM i have run)... then I dunno what the heck my lack of full over-clocking is? Any help?

P.S. Kies is the SHIZ-SHAM-FIZZLE-SHOP-POP!!!! WOW!!!

I'm lovin da NEW SFR, but on the puzzle lockscreen, I'm guessin dat we can have our wallpaper as the lockscreen anymore, just the ACS?
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
On simply blue and the background was transparent so it gave you the illusion that it was your background but in all reality it wasn't. If you would like to change the images your self there, in framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi. there regular pngs so if you keep the save sizes there's no special editing needed
[Epic 4G Android Development] nikon120:
That showed up when I only had a missed call. Someone else may have experienced the what you explained above, unless swype was being swype. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] VAnative21:
So pretty much all I need to do is copy ALL the .png files from the other lockscreen .zip and place them in the framework folder or how does that work? If you had the time could you do it for me or is it time consuming/complicated?
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
Except that it will break the lock screen and any other additions to the 1.2 framework files that weren't present in 1.1.1
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
I guess my copies of the last three versions has been special, then - I've been able to update my PRL, profile and firmware on all three (as long as an update is available, if course, but no error when there isn't an update)

Try starting over with a fresh Odin, something is corrupted and a re flash probably won't fix it
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
It is very simple. Just get the framework from the other puzzle lock screen. Extract the apk like you would a zip using 7zip or winrar. Navigate to the directory I already pointed out to you. Find the puzzle lock screen images. There all pngs no .9s to deal with. Now open up the framework from the rom with winrar or 7zip. (don't extract just open). Navigate to the same directory and just drag n drop the images

I'm running 1.2 with genocide 1.1 final. While playing music or any ringtone... If you move ur finger across the touch screen it garbles up the sound, causes a lot of distortion. Anybody know why?

[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
for me this dont happen but I read some time ago by disabling something in the voodoo app cured this problem
[Epic 4G Android Development] tsperez:
Good advise but a major undertaking. Not sure I want to risk doing that since everything is really working well with my current setup. I had the same good fortune with 1.1.1. My main issue is that I have missed out in the last 3 PRL updates. I thought that flashing to 1.2 would fix my problem but no such luck.

Anyway, thanks for the advise.

Hey everyone! First off I want to say amazing ROM! I am only having one issue and its with the Market place. Everytim I try and download something I get a FC. I have already cleared the data and the cache but to no avail. This was a fresh odin install and I am on the genocide kernal final.zip. any ideas?? I really don't want to have to odin again... thanks in advance...
[Epic 4G Android Development] The Root:
My advice is to install Impaler's market. If the edify zip doesn't work, just pull it onto your desktop, put it on your sd card, delete vending.apk from system/app menu and paste the imalers app into its place. You will like it.

I didn't mean that in a bad way = I know for a fact that 1.3 exists because a couple of folks I know were testing it ...... I just meant that since we now have official GB , should we now just wait for SRF GB instead ? will that be the ACS ICS by marcusant ? will there be a different one ?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rojasj:
I was testing out other EI22 roms to see how they are going and there isn't anything that great out yet at least I feel there isn't I'm just on the deodex stock rom. I guess I'll sit around till I see another rom, it doesn't hurt to try them as long as ya back up your system. It's fun, but you already know that. Lol.

[Epic 4G Android Development] xtrezpasor:
Can I flash any of those gb roms over this directly without having to odin?

And imho I don't think we will see 1.3, but I'm hoping for 2.0...
[Epic 4G Android Development] big_bake:
What you need Odin for, at least with ACS ICS, is to get to the EC05 modem. If you are already on the EC05 modem, you can do all your flashing via CWM.

until they realease 1.3 im not going to give it any thought. its been in a testing phase for months. all that build up for nothing.

I'm running SRF1.2 with genocide kernel. What happens if I run the update for the Gingerbread release?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ultro:
Haven't done it myself, but I've read that it will download, but not install. If interested in official Gingerbread, you're gonna have to update the modem to EI22 found here, then flash the ROM of your choice.

crashing issue w/ Syndicate 1.2: Did I miss something?

Ok, first off, I wanna thank the ACS team for making this amazingly fast, smooth ROM, you guys changed me from hating Android to loving it, my phone has been working not like a new phone, but BETTER than a new one! Excellent work, guys! :)

Now onto the issue at hand: On two occasions in the past 4 days, I have had my phone crash/freeze up. This I would expect to happen on anything anyways, it happens to us all. However, both of these occasions required me to take out the battery to reboot the device, it simply would not get out of the frozen state ever. The first time, it crashed when I tried downloading an image off the browser. During this occasion, I did not know about the Journaling, which was disabled. So I had to reinstall the ROM, start over, acquired the zip to enable Journaling, (if I understand correctly, Journaling should help the phone fully recover from a crash in which the user had to improperly shut down and reboot as I did with the battery).

About 24hrs ago, it crashed again (so it went a good 50+ hrs of constant use, few proper reboots here and there). This time, it was first slowing down, and the browser was starting to display things really oddly, with horizontal colored lines randomly placed in the picture. Since I also had a ton of apps running, I went through RAM management and did a level 2 cleanup, then it picked up fine. I proceeded to use the browser again, and the lines came back, figured I'd try Opera mobile, but then the phone crashed as I tried to go back home from market.

Has anyone experienced any issues like this? Any bug fixes/updates I might have missed? Apps to beware of?

I'm still gonna stick with this ROM even if I have to recover every two days, still much better than the garbage called stock ROMs, lol, those are terrible junk!

Update: Crash happened twice today, but wiping dalvik cache (3x) and reboot recovery worked...for now...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Quicksand Jesus:
FYI - I went back to this ROM again to test some things. I noticed that Google Apps Device Policy does not work with this ROM. That makes it a no go for me as we use this to force password and encryption settings to my handset. I thought maybe if I posted this now then things may work in the next version?

Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
A couple of things:

-What kernel are you on?

-Are you overclocking?

This rom does not flash it's own kernel. You may want to try a different one, judging by your problems. Also note that this thread and it's rom have not been touched or updated by the ACS team since it was posted in June. You could read through the 300 pages worth of people asking the same questions you're asking over and over and over again...

You could also try a different rom. There are several EC05 updated roms besides this one that are not stock. :rolleyes:
[Epic 4G Android Development] agentjonnyb:
I'm apparently on kernel 2.6.32.9. Any recommendations for other kernels to try?
[Epic 4G Android Development] TPMJB:
This might be an odd question, but how did you bake in the lockscreen mod? I was thinking of making my own rom (removing SprintAndroidExtension.apk as well) to flash to my friend's phone(s) and was wondering how you got that on there. I remember 1.1.1 didn't have it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
The kernel version number will likely be the same for all of your options, it isn't a unique identifier. Do you see a boot logo from the kernel on startup? Genocide kernel is easy to notice that way, and the (hard to find) most recent Twilight Zone has one that is kinda obvious.

I recommend Genocide kernel, it was the most stable for me on EC05
[Epic 4G Android Development] m5james:
I'm completely content w/ SRF 1.1, I never got around to 1.2 since it didn't come w/ its own kernal for some reason, so I'm in no rush to jump onto 1.3 until I know its done, so they can take as long as they want.

In the meantime, is there something I can remove using SDX Stock App Remover so I don't have to get hourly reminders that Gingerbread is available for download? I can tell when random crap is going on w/ my phone because it gets hot around the flash/camera, then when I reset, my battery comes back showing like 30-40 percent less. Sending me reminders is one thing, but damn, Sprint!
[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:

Using that will freeze your system updates. You can manually enter the code listed with Terminal Emulator, or use something like Titanium to freeze it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dps33:
I have ACS Frozen 1.2. I just got Update notice for EI22 Gingerbread. Should I install or no? I am guessing this update notice is from Sprint and not ACS. Do I need to wait to get EI22 GB from ACS Frozen?

What is the difference betweem ACS Frozen 1.2 and ACS ICS V4 with EI22 GB?
[Epic 4G Android Development] syntheticexctasy:
I suspect that since we're rooted, it's not a good idea to use an OTA update, however, I've not tried. I'm curious to know as well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rmingee:
I used Titanium to freeze the system update service, and rebooted, but it is still putting a reminder in the notification area that an update is there, I suspect because it had already downloaded it. Anyone know what I need to remove to make it stop that? It's not that big of a deal, but I really don't want to go to stock GB by mistake.

I also would be interested in opinions about how ACS ICS V4 compares to Frozen 1.2. I've been very happy with the latter, and feel no compelling need to switch, unless ICS V4 is seen as markedly better in some way.

-- robert
[Epic 4G Android Development] icecold23:
I believe if you change the system/ build.prop to the proper EI22 information, you would be able to avoid having the phone prompting you to update.

You will need the correct EI22 info to change...

ro.build.description=SPH-D700-user 2.3.5 GINGERBREAD EI22 release-keys

ro.build.fingrtprint=sprint/SPH-D700/SPH-D700/SPH-D700:2.3.5/GINGERBREAD/EI22:user/release-keys

No guarantees...but this should work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] agentjonnyb:
Thanks, I'll try that one out! I think I must be on the kernel from Syndicate 1.1, as that is the previous ROM I had, and that one flipped out right on the first boot. I admit I am a bit new to flashing this other stuff to phones, I used to use WM6.1/6.5, and that was just a simple matter of flashing just the ROMs, no kernels, modems, etc. So far my phone has lasted since Sunday with no major crashes.

Also, I forgot to mention, I am still on froyo, not gingerbread. I haven't done much research as I've been far too preoccupied with school, but I haven't heard anything about gingerbread that's given me any motive to update to it, doesn't seem to have any UI changes, not impressed. ICS on the otherhand...so freakin glad that FINALLY stole all the best features of WebOS and WP7 GUIs to make things, namely multitasking and notifications quicker, easier and more intuitive!

ACS SyndicateROM Frozen 1.3??

I just got the EI22 OTA update notification this morning. Do we have any updates on when SRF 1.3 is going to be released? I keep hearing "soon", and that it's being tested -- but that's what I've heard for several months.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nikon120:
SRF 1.3 is Froyo, since the SRF line is only built off official Sprint/Samsung releases and has been in testing/QA for the last few months. Assume no timeline for the release.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sandman512:
Subscribing as to get rid of the OTA update
[Epic 4G Android Development] YBLEGAL1605:
I've been loving 1.2 as well.

OTA notification is annoying. Changing build.prop config works, but appears to mess with market. Market asked me to agree to terms again, and it doesn't appear to be giving me the same app search results.

Appears there is process polling the system version on boot every single time. If I revert my config back to stock identification, the update notification comes back. There is a higher level process that needs stripped or disabled.

Hoping for a cleaner solution!
[Epic 4G Android Development] siirus09:
Agreed. Theyve been using the word "soon" for over a month now but no concrete word or even a public beta. Meanwhile ICS and GB are officially out and the rest of the Development board is starting to pass us by leaps and bounds. I completely understand this is a side hobby for ACS team but 'soon' should be used for 'by next week unless my phone catches fire' not just to keep us here waiting :p
[Epic 4G Android Development] Squiggy45:
Since all of the hard work done by the devs is done for free, I would be hard-pressed to ***** at them. What I've done instead is move to a GB-based ROM. If SFR releases something compelling, I'm free to try it out.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sandman512:
Squiggy,

If you don't mind me asking, what GB Rom did you use?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Squiggy45:
I'm using Legendary ROM, [URL="http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1339217"}found here[/URL]. I'm really digging it. SFR 1.2 was my daily ROM for months, but I really wanted to make the move to GB and after loading Legendary, I'm glad I did. The phone is more responsive, more battery-efficient and just works great. I've had no issues or bugs (looking for wood to knock on!)
[Epic 4G Android Development] TPMJB:
I can't vouch for Legendary rom, but I've found ACS ICS V5(as of now) is pretty good. Low amounts of errors and it runs smooth. Honestly very distraught that this rom has received no love lately. It was the best rom available for the Epic in June.
[Epic 4G Android Development] capt_peo:
I love this ROM and for the Gingerbread I'll wait for them to make it as well!
[Epic 4G Android Development] nikon120:
I thought I was gonna wait and finally gave in. I'm running Legendary rom and I never looked back. Glad I made the jump. SRF 1.2 has quite a few annoying bugs that are finally no longer an issue for me on this rom.

I jumped over to Legendary ROM. I didn't think anything could beat SFR 1.2, but I was wrong. Legendary is faster and snappier. Battery life is at least as good as SFR.

[Epic 4G Android Development] jered6323:
The update will just fail before it installs, and your phone will reboot without harm. I was curious and tried to update my girlfriend's Epic, and all she has is Root, no custom ROM, nothing, ONLY Root, and the update would not install.

OK well my fiancée clicked accept and was like oh hey babe three a gingerbread update for my phone. So i freaked and made her pull the battery lol.

But do not when? :mad: I am waiting. So why anyone will wait for 1.3 for couple of bugs and stick with froyo when you have GB out? To me seems like waste of developers time. I see people are moving on to Legendary and ICS v5, I did not see anyone moving on to CleanGB? Any one ahs tried all to see which one is the one?
[Epic 4G Android Development] vwags:
Yes. I went to Legendary with the Samurai kernel and everything is working great. 4g, GPS etc. Battery life is better for me that it was on SFR 1.2.

I flashed acs ics, very smooth. id recommend it. As for sfr 1.3, I'm waiting but im not anxious for it anymore. There are other roms out there to try guys.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
For real. If an SR'G' ROM comes out, I'm sure I'll try it. If you guys haven't jumped to any EI22 ROM yet, you're seriously missing out. I would start with either ACS ICS or ERA Legendary. Both are quite good, and I haven't had any significant problems with either. I haven't tried any other ones, but I'm sure they're solid as well.

Plenty of people making add-ons and such to get things just the way you want them if there isn't something you like in one of those ROMs.

Wifi, GPS, all that stuff works better for me now than when I was on Froyo.

There is a 0% chance I'll go back to Froyo, ever.
[Epic 4G Android Development] big_bake:
I'm gonna echo these guys. I first jumped on the GB leaks way back when and they didn't run right, went right back to my nandroid of SFR 1.2 and stayed there til official GB came out. Went right along ACS to ACS ICS. The rom has been great and the newest version (v5.5) has a lot of cool features like the scrollable task bar and a really neat themed swype skin. Great battery life and GPS works better than it did before. I never really had major issues but it seems faster and more accurate.
[Epic 4G Android Development] UnicronAlpha99:
Agreed on GB being the way to go. ACS ICS 5.5 is very smooth and fast. Froyo was always buggy on my Epic and seemed to eat itself every 30-45 days no matter my setup. Gingerbread hence far has been pretty stable... one random soft reboot and then a misread of my battery percentage which seems to happen at times on my Epic after a reboot, i.e. going from 60% to 20% after a reboot. I know the 20% is inaccurate and it is simply and error in the way the remaining charge is being read by the system.

Overall it's very smooth and responsive compared to Froyo.

Still rocking this rom. Anyone have the su binary outdated popup upon reboot. It updates then when i restart its back to the previous version. Running genocide kernel.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mouseglider:
Yes, I do, it happens with Superuser v3.07 - if you go back to Superuser v3.06, I believe that version will keep the binary stuck after reboot.

Even though I am having that one glitch if I stay on Superuser v3.07, I am hoping that they will fix that. It doesn't seem to matter if you update the binary from say 3.00 to 3.03. I have run it with and without the updated binary, and it doesn't seem to impact the performance or reliability.

Then again, I might jump to GB when everything is tweaked - hoping that a real nice stock GB rom with all the glitches fixed will arrive soon!
