I should have been a bit more specific. I didn't have access to my pc last night so I reverted to v2. The way you suggested was the way I installed v3 on Monday and didn't have much of a problem untill late last night. I suspect the gingerbread keyboard from the market causing some of my issues.

What is the name of the music player in this rom?
[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
It's Miu.

ATTENTION:

I've linked a different AIO patch. Flash that over the Egret version, theme, etc. to get wireless tether to work. I think, at the cost of the 8-lock. Hopefully I can sort this.

[Epic 4G Android Development] younggangsta_s:
Too many bugs with this ROM. No Google Apps. Maps, Navigation and Talk force close when you install them separately. 3G and Wifi signal is weak.

I'll wait until you iron out the issues.
[Epic 4G Android Development] viper786:
This rom is great except for the navigation force closes. Hopefully you have a fix for that soon.
[Epic 4G Android Development] thatdudepoops:
There should be a Gingergoodies folder on ur SD card after you install the Rom. 3-finger boot in recovery ...install zip...find Gingergoodies....select journaling off.zip..Badda Bing eh

Current RandomROM 2.3.4 Standings

Still having great difficulties with pre-installed apps on Gingerbread, looking into it. Currently my phone is still out of commission until I get a different one Monday or Tuesday.

In the meantime, I'm trying to make all 4 mods work together, and idle testing the battery life on my wife's phone.

The bad news: "Eagle" Version lost 80% in 12 hours.

The good news: "Egret" Version has only lost 10% in 16 hours.

Idle testing involves a Factory Reset, Fresh Install, Superfreeze Command, No Other Changes, and No Usage(Idle).

If these numbers remain consistent, then this indicates that the Epic could be left on for more than 6 days! Obviously varying usage will diminish that time, but this still remains astonishing.

This install consists of: CWM 3.1.0.1 EXT4, EE03 Modem, Clean Installed "Egret" Version
[Epic 4G Android Development] thatdudepoops:
Actually compared to others this has excellent wifi and 4g speed...didn't check 3g but was pulling 8m-dl on wifi, 6m dl on 4g...double of most others

RandomKing any ideas on the google apps nd gtalk? I had it working breifly
[Epic 4G Android Development] il buono:
The Egret version does have great battery life. Without the Superfreeze command the phone only lost 1% in 8 hours (idle and calibrated battery). The only difference being I'm using the EG22 modem. I haven't had any force closes yet so that's awesome! Also, I got a benchmark of 2100!! After flashing chri41g's kernel the benchmarks dropped by 600 so I undid that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
Now THAT'S ridiculous! Let me know if that rate holds steady. I know that my phone tends to not show any loss at first, then it loses a few percent quickly, and then it typically balances out to a more stable loss rate.
[Epic 4G Android Development] il buono:
Will do. I'll let you know later on today or tomorrow.
[Epic 4G Android Development] omair2005:
want to try egret rom out.. waiting on changelog and what tweaks are included!
[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
GOOD NEWS EVERYBODY!

I do believe I've successfully rebuilt the Settings APK and made the AIO patch a complete success! Link should be up momentarily! This will download as AIO v.3.

This should flash over the theme, Egret, or Eagle version.

I just installed v3 this morning. Everything went fine except I am getting force close with Titanium Backup.? Any ideas? I already uninstalled TB then wiped cache, wiped daik and reinstalled TB and also did a fix permission.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lcovel:
Currently running RandomROM-2.3.4-v4-Lite for the past 6+ hours, only one FC in TouchPal Curve, but that was resolved after clearing data for that app.

---------- Post added at 05:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:56 PM ----------

Not sure if it makes a difference, but when I installed, I used AppMonster to reinstall my apps, then used my nandroid from v3 to restore my data. Also, when I was upgraded from v2 to v3, I did it the same way and didnt have any FC issues after clearing data for a few apps. I ran over a week on RandomRom without any issues. Never had to fix permissions. Hope this helps someone if it makes a difference.
[Epic 4G Android Development] h4kudoshi:
I have never experienced any FC's with this ROM, only reboots. The reboots I think (in my theory) have something to do with wireless networks. Only reason I say this is the other day I had wireless turned on all day at my job because I didn't think to turn it off after I left home which I have connected to wireless all the time, and I have never gotten so many random reboots in my life. It drove me crazy, but then since turning it off when I am not actually connected to a network the reboots came to a screeching halt. I may still get one here or there but nothing like I experienced that day.

Look up Crawjrs fix.

The site is down. It happens. It will come back online.
[Epic 4G Android Development] unique2me:
I did a search for "crawjrs fix" and came up with nothing. Can someone post the link for the fix to the stock browser please?

Note: I had some problems with phone stability going from v.2 to v.3 even though I did wipe 3x flash 2x etc and did not restore backups. So what I did was odin the stock EC05 rom and start over from scratch and then odin the EG22 modem because it instantly triples my 4G speeds compared to the EC05 modem. Repartition via odin did the trick.

I can personally attest that this is a very stable rom, I have had absolutely no FC's or reboots at all. The only major fail about this rom is that stock browser/voice search will FC out of the box. But the everthing else especially the battery life kicks so much ass, that I have digressed. By far the best Gingerbread rom out there.

Great work brutha.

Here is the link to crawrj's stock eg22 lag fix.

This worked for me in v2 after installing the browser myself, but caused an issue for me when I just flashed it over v3.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JeffATL:
I have gone to Phoenix due to the constant force closes. I started getting forces closes there on email.apk too and nandroid restore pre force close did not help but then I cleared data in manage apps (wipes my 3 email account settings) , and restored data using nandroid and my email was fixed - for now.

I'd like to stay up to date on the new version - maybe I will try it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
Status Update:

This browser will be included in the next revision. I am attempting to update Phoenix and Hawk at the same time to bring them both to the same level of functionality and support. Hopefully the transition between the two should be less noticeable.

My decisions in regards to the next GB revision are not finalized yet, but I'm aiming to have all 4 roms (Full and Lite) up by the end of this week.

I have been running v4 for a few days now. Seems more stable than v3 for me so far. I get a few random reboots a day still, and had to fix permissions once. No fc problems the last 2 days.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JeffATL:
What was the problem and how did you resolve?

Just made a small donation - a beer in some states but a soda in mine :)

Gonna give it a few days before I move from Phoenix back to v4.

Short anecdote I wish to share:

I was out in a club last weekend, a little bit under the influence. My phone started having fc's under Phoenix and then CWM was not allowing me to do anything. I noticed my micro sd card was missing. It must have fallen out while I was changing the battery. All my backups, programs and media gone! I somewhat recovered because I had an old microsd card (8gb) that I used with my previous phone. serves me right for drinking too much....:D
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeffro18:
Had a random reboot. When the system came back up my wifi was disabled. Couldn't re-enable it. Rebooted and had some fc's. Booted to cwm, fixed permissions, haven't had a fc since.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lifeofbean:

Gotcha! Thanks boss
[Epic 4G Android Development] Teract:
Are you using the Calender widget? I kept getting the FCs, did a clean install and started rebooting and removing the battery in between program installs and minor changes. Turned out the Calendar widget was crashing my phone every time I tried using it. I can use the app itself, but not the widget. Since then I haven't had a force close except when I use the Tethering app, which works, but will require a battery pull afterwards.

Oh, and I've got my girlfriend's phone working just fine after removing the calendar widget from her's as well. (we both have the Epic 4g)
[Epic 4G Android Development] JeffATL:
I use a widget from the market called "smooth calendar" - it displays my events in a a rectangle on my screen - still relies on the stock calendar though to get its info so could be cause

also - if someone can help me with the music app - i think the same one on hawk is on phoenix - posted this there but figured more responses here...

any clue/suggestions/help?

kinda need this as i use a profile in tasker to announce/read my text when driving.....

thanks in advance!!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeffro18:
What version are you running? I'm pretty sure the lite version does not include a stock browser, which you need for voice command to work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] goodelyfe:
i am currently running the lite version, flashed today

however, i also blv it was hawk2 (v2?) that wasnt working either..... i could never get into the tts settings
[Epic 4G Android Development] Bizz08:
This was on the previous page...
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeffro18:
V2 did not have the stock browser either. I can point you in the right direction how to set it up if you want to pm me. I just got it working on v4 pretty easily. Otherwise the answer is already buried throughout the thread.

Edit: Check page 58, post 573. The only difference i saw with setting it up in v4 is you have to download voice settings from the market after you install the browser. It should send you to the download when you press the mic icon on the google search widget after installing the browser.

You my want to wait for random to comment on this, as he may have left it out to increase the stability of the rom.

because if we talking about voice search working, it works but it has to be installed first....

I hate to say it but until random reboots stop I think it's time to go back to 2.2.1+ :(

Nothing against this ROM its the damn instability within GB that needs to be fixed!
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjhall:
I agree, I'm getting a seriously unstable rom. I've tried any number of things to solve the problem, but seriously right after I flashed it and installed a couple programs and launcher pro unlocker. But eventually it always ends with one vibration, three vibrations, and a battery yank. Sad but true.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
For those getting fc and gapps error. I ran Random for two weeks without an issue, then i have tried several other roms which all reported the same issues. I have successfully run all of them without a single problem. The key to my success has been i do not restore any data to my apps. I also do new installs on all apps. I have found that gtalk and g+ apps are what triggers these fc upon installing these apps. So i watch each one carefully upon installing them. I am syncing all contacts, calander, reader etc... Without a single issue. Just some fyi for those who feel these gingerbread roms are unstable, I would disagree. :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] rckozma:
FYI, I do the same thing, and I still got the random reboots and FC's. I will go one step further, I have ran (and currently am running) the GB leaks without the custom roms and get the reboots and FC's, they are just not as frequent. And I only run a few apps (roam control, fb, live profile, and shopkick). So I will have to go with the GB leaks are the issue, since they are what the roms are based off of.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
Rckozma, yes i would agree it stems from the leaks themselves. I did use the Ram script and I am journaling ON as its definitely more stable. FC and gapps error are a thing of the past, never get them anymore. Reboots seems to derive from data connection system freezes. For some reason when i tether for a while or sit on g4 it freezes in those modes and causes a reboot. Thats what i discovered is causing my random reboots. This could very well be whu others are all getting random reboots. Again my personal insight, and I appreciate all the work the developers put into these custom roms, but without a real source code these glitches and bugs will continue.

EDIT: as far as launchers, I use ADW i have forever and have all my settings for that saved. I do uninstall the launchers that come with all the roms. I dont know if this is helping me in any way achieve my success with all these GB roms.
[Epic 4G Android Development] smader12:
Same

Same here, just install backed up apps not the data. I've been running v2, v3 and now v4 with zero issues. I don't use LP though, I use Go Launcher, but I don't think that has anything to do with in because LP is probably more stable than Go as far as launchers go.

On another note, I keep losing Black Market when the Market updates. I freeze the market updater and uninstall the updates, but it keeps coming back. I'm sure this is covered somewhere else, if someone would please point me to a link to a thread. Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] vickpick:
Gotta say this might the ****iest ROM i've ever tried. Sorry man, but just can't use a ROM that has such a terrible RAM leakage. I mean once the phone has been used for 2-3 three hours it becomes very slow as no matter what you do you can't get more than 50 mb RAM to be freed.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
I think you might be doing something wrong. Did you use the ram script? Its all in the original post with instructions. Also Some peoples hardware for some reason also functions different than others, built date or different components somewhere.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bryanfritz1:
I just flashed v3 after playing with the miui a bit [ I was one of the no service folks :-( ] I have experienced one or two reboots, mostly hear them in my pocket. I totally think the reboots have to do with connections ie. Wifi, 4g, 3g as I have seen vast improvement with battery life and 4g and wifi. I think samsprint is trying to tweak 3g to be the same and that is where the reboots derive from. As far as memory I think the leaks can be delt with by using a utility like the supercharge scripts or I like the optimize tool box. In OTB you can find memory profiles in extended toolbox that I have found to work well for adjusting memory management. Great work on the rom "king" here are a couple of ss to show off your work in action:-)

im having one and only one issue. i cant get my phone to connect to my computer anymore

my phone acts normal but once it says its connected nothing ever shows up on my computer. ive tried reinstalling my drivers and still no difference. tred different usb cords and even went and bought a new one just now adn still no change. i tried in debug mode and in normal mode and same result. ive called ##8778# and made sure it was all correct and it was.

ive tried basically everythinggg and nothing is working even tried 2 different computers.

im running this rom with whatever kernel it comes with and im running eh17 modem.

has anyone had the same problem? my phone wont connect no matter what not in normal boot or in cwm or in download mode. can anyone help me?

This ROM is working spectacularly after two days.

Only issue I'm having (and not sure it's the ROM) is that 4G won't stay connected. Sometimes it won't fully connect- says connected, but won't get off of idle.

This seems to happen after I've been using WiFi. Doesn't matter what order I do things (disconnect/connect WiFi; Turn on/off 4G; turn on/off mobile networks; etc).

I've tried a few different modems [EG22 now] that have worked in the past, but all seem to have the same issue. I suspected the app PhoneWeaver, so I removed it.

Any suggestions appreciated.
