I don't actually know what the problem is, if it seems to work on another custom EG22 let me know and I'll look into it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ski21:
Random, your download install instruction say

"Option A: Odin the .tar for EC05 deodexed EXT4."

Since this is a EG22, rom can or should this one be use a EG22 stock deoedexed EXT4 tar first instead of an EC05? I used the EC05 one, and can't receive text messages. Would that be the reason i'm not receiving txt messages.

Exactly how I installed mine just yesterday. The rom itself will bring in everything but the modem. All the ec05 gives is a clean install, cwm, and ext4.

Great ROM! I flashed the original font-patch.zip and for some reason I still see it a bit different if not dimmer than what I was used to from ECO5. Did things change for font appearance from ROM versions 2.2.1 to 2.3.4? Also I thought the EG22Plus Kernel was Overclockable?

i just installed this rom...first rom on the new phone i got as a replacement :)

just a few questions:

does this rom have carrier iq removed? and all the sprint bloatware seem to be removed...

what about sprint proxy?
[Epic 4G Android Development] dumb4ever:
Can anybody help me change the font and the background color ? It really hurt my eyes reading it white over black.

I did download the font patch but not sure how to use it.

Thank You
[Epic 4G Android Development] dja2k:
You flash the .zip in Clockwork Recovery.

[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
This rom is completely different in build from Froyo. The theme itself is based on Maddoggin's, rather than the base ACS theme previously used in RandomROM EC05. Download Tegrak from the market if you want to overclock.

Question: Why do you need to overclock? I push my phone hard all day and never need more power than it offers inherently.

Carrier IQ removal is a large undertaking that I'm not even sure I'm capable of accomplishing. More importantly, it would be far too much effort for a leak build. Rest assured, however, that it is disabled and does not impede performance.

All useless or harmful Sprint crap is removed.

Just for you.

I've been using EH06 for a week or so and it works very well with this ROM. GPS as you stated is amazing and battery is fantastic. As an example, I am currently at 24 hours off the charger and have 78% remaining. I may never flash another ROM. Oh who am I kidding?
[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
It's addicting, isn't it? Even if it were perfect. :rolleyes:
[Epic 4G Android Development] chrisnosleep:
So is this Sprint data proxy something we need to do? Or did you include this in the new version?

Also, just letting you know I was able to flash Hawk v2 over v1. Ijust cleared the cache and dalvik, then flashed. I did notice after it had fashed, it said Hawk v1 was installed. Also, what's up with the new messaging icon? LOL... Is there any way I can change that back, I liked how it sort o matched the contacts and phone icons.

EDIT: forgot to mention, keep up the great work and thank you!
[Epic 4G Android Development] luckymoney718:
hey itried this same procedure but im stuck on samsung screen ..is this normal ?
[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
Never messed with it. As far as I can tell it appears to be something only done manually.

If you want the old messaging back, using 7zip drag out System\Apps\Mms.apk and push it to your phone with root explorer.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jdelano:
It sounds like what you odined at first is not EXT4 compatible.

So when your restarted after flashing RFS2EXT the current setup can't read the data.

Pull the battery, boot into recovery and flash hawk v2.
[Epic 4G Android Development] luckymoney718:
thats what i did but its not going pass the samsung screen... the only rom that im able 2 flash or deodexed other than that im not able 2 flash anything else :(

[Epic 4G Android Development] SRobby:
Here is the .tar i used for mine, Deodexed DG22 Stock + Root/Busybox/CWM3.1.0.1

Are you sure that you ran the RFS2EXT, when it gets stuck at the Samsung screen that has always been a kernel issue for me. Personally i would start again from Odining, if you follow what i did, should all work out nicely.

Post issues should they arise.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
Do exactly as I say and nothing else in between:

Odin the EC05 I posted

Boot directly into CWM and allow it to initialize

Update CWM to 3.1.0.1

Click reboot and then pull the battery at the Samsung logo

Odin the EH06 modem

Pull the battery at the Samsung Logo

Boot directly into CWM and flash Hawk v.2

Click reboot and enjoy
[Epic 4G Android Development] luckymoney718:
hey how do i update from recovery ??
[Epic 4G Android Development] yaounit:
Didn't think hawk 2 would be that much better but I've been idle for 3 hours and still at 100%. I'll see how it holds up with some real usage.
[Epic 4G Android Development] luckymoney718:
hey can u pla tell me how to update cw while in clockwork recovery screen if possible
[Epic 4G Android Development] Masterface7:
I think you go to, in clockwork mod.

>install zip from sdcard

then >choose zip from sdcard

>GingerGoods

>CWM-3.1.0.1.zip

>Yes - Install CWM-3.1.0.1.zip

then it will ask you to reboot and you should be done. So if that is wrong i am sure someone will correct me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] luckymoney718:
Why does it seem like its just me having issues flashing this rom ??? I have tried everything but still no success ! I feel like crying !! Smh
[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
You clearly seem to be getting lost using CWM in general. Try qbking's videos.

[Epic 4G Android Development] chrisnosleep:
Not sure if this will help anyone else, but I had to RFS2EXT4 after installing the rom. That fixed all my FC's.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dja2k:
I did the following and haven't had any FC or other problems. I was on SRF 1.2 with EF02 modem before.

1. Odin Stock EG22 Deodexed with CWM 3.1.0.1/Root/Busybox 1.18.4

2. Booted into Rom, waited, then Powered Off

3. Odin EH06 Modem

4. Booted into Rom, waited and Powered Off, then went into Purple Clockwork (3 Finger)

5. Flashed RandomROM 2.3 HAWK v.2 [Journaled] EG22, Rebooted into Rom, waited and then Powered Off

6. Went into Purple Clockwork (3 Finger) and Flashed GingerGoods Journaling Off, rebooted

7. Restored my apps with Titanium Backup

Well even after converting to ext4 im still unable to flash this rom! My epic 4g just sucksssss!... All i get is a damn samsung screen after a week of trying ! Smh
[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
There's only one thing I can ask, otherwise I have no answer left for you:

When you odin to EC05 Stock Deodexed EXT4, can you boot into that? If so, after which step does your phone stop booting?
[Epic 4G Android Development] luckymoney718:
yes i am jus wen i flash your random Rom im stuck at the samsung screen. when i first tried it, it would go to samsung screen twice , but now it doesnt do anything but stay there on samsung
[Epic 4G Android Development] luckymoney718:
so does this procedure coonverts me to ext4 ??? Are would i have to manually do this ??if so what steps should i take before flashing this rom ?
[Epic 4G Android Development] sterfreak:
Don't have to do anything before. You can be on any ROM, any version. This should auto convert you to ext4
[Epic 4G Android Development] locomariachi:

do i have to flash a zip to go ext 4 or will this make me ext 4
[Epic 4G Android Development] lviv73:
Is your rom Journaled?

If Journaling is off than that is ur problem.

Only way to fix it is do factory restore or reflash and enable Journaling.with Journaling dissabled you will get framework errors sooner or later.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Alkah0liK:
I think you need to flash the RFS2EXT4.zip converter found here. I know I did and everything runs like a charm!

Holy crud. When this is final... after the first full charging cycle I'm getting spectacular speed and great battery usage. 4.5hrs and I'm still at 81% with light usage.

Just found something that will be an issue for me. WiFi won't stay connected. Keeps getting disabled or just says disconnected.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JungleJiujitsu:
I just used 7zip to change the folder name from "kernel_update" to just "kernel" and all is good now broda! Thanks for catching that glitch so quickly, got rid of issues from this morning.

Wifi on my phone is working fine, are other devices on your network being knocked off or is there listed a different network to which you can connect?
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
Loving the rom... great battery! But I can't seem t flash the 8 lockscreen mod with out the phne getting stuck at the samsung screen and repeadedly vibrating... is this a known issue?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rckozma:
So are we supposed to run the hotspot/volume patch, restore, or both?

And where can I fing the gapps? I would like to have gmail back.

Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JungleJiujitsu:
Not if you renamed the kernel folder as stated in OP, it will now be included in the ROM
[Epic 4G Android Development] Trident:
And after I tried toggling Airplane mode and rebooting, I still can't get wifi to stay connected. And now I keep getting an FC on Google Services Framework, which is apparently another name for gapps. Also getting regular FCs with ACORE.

Will any GAPPS work or does it have to be one designed for this ROM or for the EPIC? I found one one for an AOSP ROM for my EVO, but don't want to make things worse.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JungleJiujitsu:
Do you have another network listed to which you can connect? Or do you have other devices on the network that you can check to see if they are also having issues?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Trident:
This is why I come here. You guys think for me and give me the obvious answers.

I said to myself, "Of course, all my devices are connected to my WLAN."

Then I looked at my EVO- not connected. My printer- not connected.

Reset the router. Everything works.:eek:

Still getting the FCs, but I'm sure that will get fixed soon. ;-)

I got the new GMail from the market, but I'd rather have it in the ROM as well.

Finally got this working. I love it! Thanks!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
Ill wait til this is final and any bugs are ironed out, but thanks for ur work on this RK, looks great. At this point, I just want stability and at least decent battery life and it looks like this rom prvides that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Alkah0liK:
Everyting was working great until I shutdwn and turned back on (after running superfeeze and had not done so since gtak & gmail install). FC like mad on framework and acor, then gmail, then talk. didn't do that wile running as provided... so all in all it looks good and works well otherwise!

P.S. I just reflashed the rom, eg22 superclean kernel, and journaling on over data with no FC's now.... will try shutdown again shortly.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Trident:
Pretty much the same experience I've had.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
Alright, it took some effort, but the Volume Control, Hot Spot mod, CRT Off Lock, and Overscroll Glow have all been merged. It took some time since they all affect the same files. I do believe it should even safely flash over an 8-Lock EG22 theme, but don't quote me on that yet.
[Epic 4G Android Development] spyder09:
ok so i rooted and flashed this rom and the eh06 modem last night...at work today the android os rebooted somewhere between every 30 mins to every hour and a half...and finally rebooted the whole phone later today. so i went into clockwork and tried to just flash the blue theme...didnt work...so i reflashed the rom and got nothing but force closes...so i flashed srf 1.1.1 that way i could have a working phone most of the day...now i just wiped everything again and reinstalled this rom and i am hoping it will work now...is the android os rebooting a ram issue or something else? will the super user freeze command fix this problem?
[Epic 4G Android Development] luckymoney718:
still didnt work ..weird right !.. I wonder if its because the rom is actually in a folder instead of the root of my sd card???
[Epic 4G Android Development] sterfreak:
Shouldn't matter. Try to redownload RandomROM-2.3.4-HAWK2 and following my guide again. Perhaps you got some data corruption while transferring/downloading.

[Epic 4G Android Development] -SpeedofSound-:
This is the best ROM I have used to date! I recently tried out EH06 and another ROM and kicked myself in the butt for doing so. I did not have as good of reception with EH06 as I did EG22 for one and the biggest issue was that NO OTHER ROM could compare to this ROM's speed, dependability and battery life. Back to EG22 and RandomROM 2.3 HAWK I go....I should have never strayed!!

[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
The gingerbread leaks suffer from a not yet solved ram leakage. When free ram falls below the 100mb threshold, your phone will likely reboot.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Trident:
BTW, for those who, like me were having battery drain issues, this is worth a try. I got it from goodandevo.net, but I think it applies here too. I made one minor change besides changing EVO to EPIC, noted in red.

This is a one-time only procedure.

Turn the EPIC on and charge it for 8 hours.

Unplug it and turn it off.

Plug it back in and charge for 1 hour.

Unplug it and turn it on.

Wait 2 minutes and turn it off.

Plug it back in and charge for 1 hour.

Here's a variation of these instructions:

Turn the EPIC on and charge it until the LED indicator turns green.

Unplug it and turn it off.

Plug it back in and charge until the LED indicator turns green.

Unplug it and turn it on.

Once powered on completely, turn it off again.

Plug it back in and charge until the LED turns green.

Boot into Recovery/CWM and delete battery stats.

Unplug it, turn it on [boot normally if you are still in recovery], and use it normally.

It's only been the morning, but it's showing great promise for me.

I did notice that there's another thread about this alone with much the same instructions- sorry if it's unnecessarily redundant.

(All this will hopefully be moot once I get my cheap eBay 3500mAh battery. Only $7.99 with free shipping.)

Do you have journaled on or off? To me it seem like with journaled on I get better battery life.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Volknochi:
I like how this ROM looks but it seems too buggy. It's always freezing up, hangs, vibrates constantly when it's "processing" and then crashes. It even has rebooted itself when it locks up. I don't think it has anything to do with my phone; I've wiped the phone 3 times, same for Dalvik cache, reloaded the ROM three times (after clearing data, cache, etc etc of course). I have not done anything except put several of my apps onto it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Zerox20:
Also, following his instructions and in terminal doing the

su

superfreeze

helps with batt as well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dja2k:
I just started to see some of these behaviors last night when the phone rebooted itself. Also after a power off last night and then power on, it kept vibrating with some processes crashing. I tried to reflash the ROM to see if it fixes it, but no luck. I also tried to reflash the kernel, but that didn't work either. Thought I had done a backup, but I didn't so now I will be doing a clean install. After two days of running fine, don't know what happened to cause this.

dja2k
[Epic 4G Android Development] jdelano:
be sure to NOT restore data; even restoring just the APKs can cause them to FC. I like to just download the apps again and set them up. Takes a little time but saves headeaches like FCs and reboots.

I've been running v2 since it came out. No reboots or FCs at all. I had 2 reboots on v1 but no FCs. Reboots are common in leaked GB ROMs because of memory; the more things you have running the more chance a reboot can happen because of that, make sure to keep the ROM as journaled.

If you turn journaling off and your phone reboots; it can cause data corruption and the FCs start.

Hope that helps.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Amd4life:
this rom works GREAT

no fc, all apps work, perfect imo...much faster than the bonsai rom that was on my wifes phone

does anyone know how to add different ringers to the stock rom?

thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] RandomKing:
You should be able to load any mp3 you have on your sd card.

Create a folder on your SD card called "media".

Inside of that create "audio".

Inside of that create:

"ringtones" for ringtones.

"alarms" for alarms.

"notifications" for texts.
[Epic 4G Android Development] yaounit:
yeah i have journaling on and the superfreeze command. it's great battery life for how i use my phone (push gmail, updates on weather calendar fb twit every 3 hours and 5 home screens).

unfortunately i just started getting the google frameworks and gapps force closes as well as phone and sms. seems like everything just decided to implode today. going to wipe cache/dalvik and try reflashing to see if it fixes it.

no go on the reflash :( guess i'll just have to odin back to stock and start all over when i get back home

PS: For those having framework or acore force close error, here's a tip, don't sync calendar from Google ( so after you wipe and reinstall everything, then start setting up your email and uncheck calendar)

Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] ThrIsNoSpork:
Used hawk v.2 for one day and I didn't notice really any better battery than any other roms I've been flashing. Also, gapps kept crashing on me. I didn't like the font or the theme either. Random, I respect the fact that you are dev'ing something that you like and if it works for you then that's great keep pushing forward man. This is not a bash by any means I'm just expressing my opinion, so step off trolls. Unfortunately I won't be running hawk as my daily because of these isssues... also I've noticed that when using data over EVDO the notification bar still displays 3G. Not a huge issue, just a bug you may wanna look into.

Thanks for gaining my interest though and keep working at it! Ide like to see a stable release once GB is official ;)
