Which USB cable did you use for the .zip transfer/ODIN, etc.? I'm telling you, the stock cable as well as many other cheap micro USB cables simply suck and can easily result in a bad flash... Had me stumped for a while. Now every time I flash, I do a CLEAN flash, wiping everything out via ODIN and ensuring everything is peachy keen on my computer before the process, then re-downloading my apps via Android's desktop market. Works like charm.
[Epic 4G Android Development] skandranon314:
I never use the stock cable. I always use the same cable. I got it with my moment, and have flashed everything I have ever put on two diffrent epic's via the same cable. This is the first problem I have not found a solution to yet.

I should mention, I have redown loaded the rom and flashed the new version already.

Thanks for the reponse however.

Sorry for the noob question, is there a way to get any add ons besides the am/pm fix, I would like to have some of my sprint aps like telenav navigvation, sprint football and sprint zone, I would also like the original clock don't like the alarm clock that comes with the rom, other than that rom runs great I love it very smooth good work!

Yes they can be pulled out of an orignal rom. When I'm at a computer I will try to find and upload them.

Coming back to this after trying the gingerbread leaks. Got sick of the reboots, so here I am :).

Question, can I restore the data I had in gingerbread? The ROM after flashing works just fine, but I've been having some trouble after restoring data. When it boots, at the ACS logo, it'll do the buzz, buzz buzz buzz, and then loop this over and over never getting me to the homescreen.

Help!
[Epic 4G Android Development] CLZJCasper:
Im definitely excited to hear about 1.3 dropping. My phone is beast as it is from speed to battery life. I will be doing double triple and quadruple checks daily for the debut of this ROM lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
This drives me nuts. I seem to have more problems going from Gingerbread back to Froyo. I don't when I do the opposite. I wouldn't restore data from Gingerbread on your Froyo setup. It may work but installing everything fresh eliminates a variable if you have a problem. I use AppBak from the Market. It saves a list of your apps and it takes you right to the Install screen in Market for each app so you can fire down the list and install them fresh.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ceelos09:
Dnt know if this is the problem or not, but its worth a try:

Try reflashing your kernel n see if that helps.

Edit: Just read JC's response to this. So my best guess is that any data backed up from a GB build that is restored over to a Froyo build might not be 100% compatible. I also think I've read someone encounter this problem before, now that I mention it
[Epic 4G Android Development] bondosho:
Yeah, that's what I thought. It's all good though, I've just taken this as an opportunity to get rid of all the apps I never used. Thanks for the reply.

[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Its great that people feel that this ROM is one they can ALWAYS count on. It's going to remain on my SD card as well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bondosho:
I completely forgot how good battery life was with this ROM. I'm at almost 10 hours of decent use, and I'm at 57%. How is 1.3 going to improve this? I'm anxious to find out.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I wonder if that's possible. If Hotspot hack is baked in, that drinks my battery..always has. I have a feeling people will say battery isn't as good if they use it. I am conflicted about having Google+,Maps,Latitude (apps that run on their own) installed until I need them. I was trolling the SGS2 forum and they are buying an app called "BetterBatteryStats" that supposedly shows what apps are zapping the battery (maybe how much) I have to get that to try it out.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mbartels:
Don't know if this is an issue with all ROM's or only this one. When I soft restet my battery meter goes way down. Today I was at 63% and did a soft reset. When it booted back up the battery life was down to 28%. This is a pretty regular occurence for me. Anybody else experience this? Any idea why it happens? My battery is calibrated so that's not the issue.
[Epic 4G Android Development] LordFuzzy024:
I never reboot or soft-reset my phone for that exact reason. I did it yesterday, i had 72% battery before, then did a reboot, only had 27% when it started back up. I always Power down, pull the battery, then boot back up.

Side note: Anyone have any idea when the new ROM will be launched?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ree$e:
Yes I can't wait still loving 1.2 never had a Rom that my phone touch and agreed with like sfr. Great job sfr team!!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] mbartels:
So does soft resetting actually lower the battery life or just correct the meter? Let's say I'm at 70% battery life and soft reset and end up at 40% after the soft reset. Had I not soft reset would my battery have died when the meter showed 30%? This makes no sense to me that soft resetting could physically cost you battery life.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
No, the battery meter loses track. Your battery would still be at the 70%. Worst case scenario, your phone drains down to the low battery warning, but then simply stays there for hours since the battery isn't actually dead.
[Epic 4G Android Development] LordFuzzy024:
No the battery isn't really affected but the System thinks it Dead. When it gets down to 10% Android starts to freak out. Usually i just shutdown, pull the battery, and start it back up. After the restart i am usually back to pretty much what i had started with before the soft-reset. I avoid Soft-restarts and the Reboot option all together.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sonicthrust:
I love this ROM but I have been having a lot of problems with Bluetooth dropping the connection but it still says it is connected.

Does anyone have any idea why it is doing this?

Also, when I put the clock into 24hr mode it moves the time in the top bar off the screen. Fixes?

I am at a complete loss. Not sure if this is ROM related, but I have exhausted all my other options and I need help. Starting to think this is a hardware problem, but I am not sure.

The problem is often my phone will act as if I had just long pressed the home button and the recent apps / task manager pop up, pops up. It seems to happen often when I open the keyboard, but also at many other times. It really doesnt seem to matter whats running as killing everything does not help. It has gotten so bad I had to start from scratch and reflash. Sometimes it is the menu button that starts acting up not the home button.

I have gone back to a stock odin, then went from there.

I was convinced it was go launcher, as the problem seemed to start after I tested it out. That was not the problem. This has happened on three diffrent launchers.

So the only thing I am left with that we share, are this ROM (with Twighlight kernel).

I was running this ROM for a long time without any problems. Not convinced it is the source of this, however I am out of ideas.

This problem persisted though a odin. I don't understand how that is even possible.

WARNING. I am new to this kernel stuff, so take it easy on me. lol

I just upgraded to Syndicate Frozen 1.2 Final and the Genocide Kernel. Before, I had Syndicate Frozen ROM but another (probably stock) kernel that I didnt upgrade.

Now that I've upgraded to thisROM and Kernel, I can't get my bluetooth to pair and my reception seems to have gone way down. I constantly have people telling me Im breaking up over the past 2 days while using it whereas that rarely ever happened before. The bluetooth button on the pulldown menu lights up as if it were on; but cannot locate any device when scanning to pair.

Is this the kernel, the ROM, or both? I need a suggestion because bluetooth is a must for me and my business; as well as good reception. Thanks in advance.

Posted this in PPC originally, but then realized this was the real thread that had the most activity for the ROM. Thanks!

If I helped in any way hit the thanks button
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeffro18:
If you are looking for a new kernel for this rom, you should be looking at EC05 kernels. An EE03 kernel is for certain gingerbread roms. You can flash an EE03 modem on this rom or any modem with any rom. The top 3 kernels for this rom are vision, twilight, and genocide. Read about all 3 and see which one works best for you. It seems no 2 phones will react the same, so your best bet is to just try them out yourself after reading up.

[Epic 4G Android Development] jeffro18:
Modems are also something you have to test and see what works best for you. Results can vary in different service areas and on different phones. EE03 has been one of the better ones for me in the northern chicago suburbs. Give it a day or two with each one you try and run it through the paces. I usually do multiple speed tests with 3g and 4g, and test gps with gps test or gps status apps. Also just run it through your everyday functions and see if you drop calls more or less.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rustyt22:
I figured it out. Im an idiot and just needed to delete my old connection from my jawbone. Just going to play with the EE03 modem and see if that fixes my issue witht he losing signal. THANKS GUYS!
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeffro18:
There are different leaked builds of gingerbread. Devs usually reference which build their custom rom was based on with those tags. EE03 was an early gingerbread build, the most current build is EH17 right now. Once you have a rom up and running you can flash any modem you want over it. Its a bit confusing at first to see the same tags identify different things.
[Epic 4G Android Development] The Root:
Sounds like something I'd do. Try all the modems. They can differ vastly person to person and area to area.
[Epic 4G Android Development] omair2005:
any devs still working on sfr 1.3, if so any updates on progress? pardon my ignorance if already answered :o
[Epic 4G Android Development] ScottSNX:
So if you're not having any problems with data/calls you should basically stay with the stock modem, or are some roms being built that you have to pick and choose a modem to go with it?

Sorry for my noobishness, but it's kinda hard to find basic terminology definitions for these dev terms. I've only been on Android for 6 weeks after coming from WinMo for 4 years and Palm before that. I did A LOT of flashing with WinMo and even dabbled in deving but I know nothing about Linux and Android but I'm trying to learn.

My kid is in college 1500 miles away and she's the one that has the Epic (I have an Evo 3D). When she came to visit for the summer I introduced her to rooting and customization and she loved it but doesn't have time to really get into it now as she's taking 17 units right now. So I basically do the legwork and help her through some of the stuff over the phone or over Logmein.

Is there a FAQ you could point me too on some of the terminology? I didn't see it in the main Epic FAQ in this forum.

Not used to the whole Odin process, wish I had a phone here that I could practice playing around with and experimenting with different modems and other things.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeffro18:
Follow this to qbking's videos. He does a great job with them.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1009997

I usually try different modems to see if it improves my 3g and 4g speeds. Also some seem to make your gps lock on better than others, and give better or worse call clarity and signal strength. Sometimes if you flash a rom with odin a new modem will flash with it. It depends on the available packages with each rom. Usually they are cwm flashable, which will keep your modem the same. If you are on a current official froyo build you will be using EC05 modem. To see what modem you are on just hit the menu softkey>settings>about phone>and look at the last 4 digits on baseband version. Before you flash anything it is best to thoroughly read the op several times and read as much of the thread as you can. After a while you just absorb the info.
