#cosign...yes I can definately speak for myself on that note...to Deca...this is the best thing that's about to ever happen to the Epic...once this is even a daily driver...us epic users are FINALLY going to feel like we're getting our full potential out of our epics...this is the reason many of us havn't upgraded to other phones...because we know guys like you are still dedicated in bringing us the great ROM's we should of had official support for...so if anything take our eagerness as compliments and a testiment to all your hard work and dilligence with this project...it's all about to come together!

I don't wanna get in trouble for asking but from where is this kernel your talking about?...the build I tested IS CM7.1, android v2.3.7...I'm not sure I understand what you mean?

---------- Post added at 07:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:14 PM ----------

the camera is already working..
[Epic 4G Android Development] rulyskull:
I mean that take the kernal from cm7.1 the working. 35 and put it in the cm7 kanged we have here and see what happens and I'm sorry deca if this angers you
[Epic 4G Android Development] drizek:
Seriously awesome.

I'm not going to ask for an ETA, of course :p, but I'm curious if the build is in a condition right now where you might be entertaining the idea of releasing a public build for testing at some point in the not-too-distant future?

I'm in the mood to mess up my phone again. I've been using EC05 and I haven't had a random reboot in days. It's starting to weird me out.
[Epic 4G Android Development] || Acer ||:
Lol I know what you mean. Before september, I was only on gingerbread builds. I can't help but keep checking my phone to see if it's not working right or it rebooted lol.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jt1134:
We'll probably post a new build shortly ;)

Afaik the only things not working are video recording and wimax. Guess we'll see.
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
One question... are all the fixes cm compliant? I could really care less just wondering :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Decad3nce:
The kernel blob is from a leak. It has no source or origin, thusly not cm compliant.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xopher.hunter:
Sounds like I have a long night ahead of me :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] || Acer ||:
So video playback and the LEDs work?! :D

Omg I'm totally flashing if that's true.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Shinydude100:
My phone's a virgin to anything CM7. Can't wait to pop its cherry. LOL.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tony45x220:
I recorded a video on the build I tested...it just wouldn't play back...is that the one you guys are working on for release 2.3.7 CM7.1 correct?

My phone seems like such a dirty tramp in my hands now lol. I've run every Alpha and now the Beta repeatedly. Stuck with it for quite a while now. (Almost) Everything working is going to be so strange. I've grown so accustomed to its little shortcomings over the past few months.

Quit asking and just wait. Soon enough we will all know.

Great work deca & jt. Keep it up
[Epic 4G Android Development] awalbert88:
Before I tried the CM7 beta I was ready to give up on this phone and threaten/cajole/annoy Sprint until they let me do an early upgrade to a Nexus. Not because the hardware was "obsolete" as the blogs would have us believe (show me the killer app that makes dual-core and further reduced battery life worth it!), but because the software support was atrocious. All the progress you guys have made has given me new hope for this phone.

Also, since GPS has never been 100% reliable with any stock or modded build, I guess CM7 will some day resolve the question of whether it's that Samsung can't code properly or if the hardware itself is crap. I'm still not clear on that one, tbh.
[Epic 4G Android Development] corythug:
Fully agree, but you do realize many dual core phones have substantially longer battery life right?
[Epic 4G Android Development] tony45x220:
You know what...I'm not even gonna go against the grain for that one...to Deca...I apologize for broadcasting about the latest build...and ill keep my mouth shut on it until you and jt are ready to publicly relase it...my B

does anyone know how to extract a kernel from a ROM?...or what system files it's under rather...PM me or help me out...thanks community?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ugothakd:
Well, first you ask. Then, once you recieve permission, its in the kernel_update or kernel folder

Uhh #scratchingmyhead at that first part...but acknowledged, and thank you for that piece of information.

He means you ask Decad3nce for permission, because it's his kernel.

Sent from my Epic 4G
[Epic 4G Android Development] Decad3nce:
What.. no.. it's from a leak. Modifications made by jt1134 to initramfs, some by me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] :
I hope that one little bug or something like that get fixed.
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
So is this an aosp kernel and your using the intramfs from the leak or just the leaked kernel thats tweaked?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ugothakd:
Ah...I apologize then. I wondered what was going on to the github lol.

Now, will that be fixed when we get gb source? To my understanding, your just patching a tw kernel to work for cm7...but once we get source, you wont have to patch it you can compile right?
[Epic 4G Android Development] AproSamurai:
Ahhh, my mistake then. I thought that's what he had meant.

Sent from my Epic 4G
[Epic 4G Android Development] tony45x220:
So I'm guessing that's a green flag for testing and swapping the kernels?...if I'm stepping on anyones toes by doing what I am...please don't be shy Deca or JT...keep it 100 and ill just keep it to myself...I have both builds to work with (CM-7&CM-7.1)

I have no idea what you're even asking.
[Epic 4G Android Development] AproSamurai:
It didn't seem to bother them? It was a four hour gap I'm quite you had a go ahead once he said it was a modified kernel...
[Epic 4G Android Development] tony45x220:
I just like to be sure...I know how touchy things can get...don't want to be a catalyst is all...

Sent from my rooted, suited, & booted Epic 4G #knowdat!
[Epic 4G Android Development] counterfeit187:
I think he was asking for permission to strip the kernel from your rom and tinker with it. Mainly because of the offense you took to somebody else posting a rom that wasn't their own build.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Decad3nce:
Oh... It's a leak kernel. Just credit the changes to initramfs to jt1134 for cm7... no big deal. lol

People need to use their words around here.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Decad3nce:
Putting up a build tonight -- rough list.

--

What's working:

WIFI -- took me a while to refix

Camera -- just using wrong blobs

GPS -- works better than EH17 actually

HW keys

HW accell for youtube

and whatever else was working previously

What's not working:

Overlay for video recording and video playback in HD

Wimax

What probably might need workaround:

Need to start and restart wifi on first go around for proper connect to AP -- kernel error, can't fix w/o source
[Epic 4G Android Development] bender beerman:
looks like i'm staying up late tonite ;) thanks, deca!
[Epic 4G Android Development] qbking77:
ACS is uploading the rom for mirror now for you guys ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Wizard Knight:
is there a recommended kernel for this? genocide or twilight or whatever?
[Epic 4G Android Development] qbking77:
Stick with the kernel that flashes with the rom.. It's CM7 based. I doubt any other kernel will even work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Art2Fly:
Dont flash a kernel, it will render your phone useless until you reodin. CM7 only works with the kernel that's included.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Isira:
Well, only the kernel source code for official builds are released. The upside is Samsung has been very good about releasing the kernel sources at the same time the official builds have been released.

Hey Decad3nce, does this also mean that people are going to be able to compile everything themselves from git? Or is the whole "held together by hacks" thing limiting that?

[Epic 4G Android Development] jt1134:
It's not the app that's broken. It's the underlying framework and backbone that are broken.

It *may* be possible to port camera drivers from a newer kernel and use it with camera libs from gingerbread, but that would take quite a bit of work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Wizard Knight:
I knew it was a stretch, but doesn't hurt to ask

Lol..I know what you are getting at but I bet he released this to show people that progress has been made which it has. It is definately unique that you can change overscroll glow and icon colors with one touch. Cyanogen is new to me.

Not sure about that actually. I am playing it semi-safe right now. Running 1.252 max with no voltage adjustments...
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I have Ultimate but I believe you can go up to 1.3 on the free one however if you need to increase the voltage at 1.3 you will need paid version. 1.2 or 1.252 seem stable with no voltage increase though

Oh ok, thanks man.

Ok, Tegrak seems to take away from the scrolling smoothness some in the app drawer. If benchmarks are your thing, I ran Quadrant and Smartbench tests at 1.252. Smartbench suffers with Tegrak, Quadrant not so much...

Anyone having issues with audio not coming out when the 3.5mm Jack is plugged in??
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Believe it or not, that's conservative. Here is 1300/100 conservative which is as high as the free version let's you go. I have the paid version but this feels stable but not as smooth..EDIT..the scrolling seems to have smoothed out ...for now

[QUOTE=Original Android

Yes I think so...it is for me anyway. Which brings me to my next question, is it safe to format to rfs?

Anyone????

Another question, is it really 2.3.5? Does that mean we can download all types of files natively?

[Epic 4G Android Development] spitefulrain:
Ill probably be using this quite a bit. Its really nice, especially considering that GB isnt official yet. Being able to do this much without source, great job Deca. Can't wait to see what you can do once this is official :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
It can for me for sure. But only problem I see is the no sound when 3.5mm Jack is pluged in.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xopher.hunter:
Sooooo smooth and fast my new daily!!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I am really dying to know if the Quadrant trick is baked into this ROM. I am not usually a benchmark junkie but the CPU marks I see (especially only at 1300/conservative) are unbelievable. Does Cyanogen make better use of the CPU or is this test all bulls#*t?

I can confirm no sound through headphones through music app

Cam button wakes phone within 10 seconds of screen off for me, then it behaves :)

Congratulations on this milestone deca!

I think that I speak for many people who download this Rom when I say that we are very grateful for the effort that your team has spent. It is unfortunate that there have been so many eta threads; I don't think that a lot of people truly understand the amount of effort needed to make this happen.
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
Hows wifi signal? Mine seems to suck... I'm upsatiars and my modems down but I always have connection anywhere in the house, but now it seems to disconnect from wifi kind of a lot... anyone running eg22 modem having that problem?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
Same for me on the car thing also when I ride I use my headphones but I can manage I guess the old iPod touch has to come out till this gets fixed lol. I could of sworn that it worked on alpha 4. But its been a while. No biggy for me. Thanks again deca

Much appreciated.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
U have to flash the gapps.zip then u can sync
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
My first Cyanogen run as well. There is a lot to customize. For sync I had to hit menu/sync even though I was logged in already. Fixed it right up. I didnt get Bluetooth to power on on the ROM but that was probably my bad. I will mess with it in the morning. Maybe Tegrak is messing with it

[Epic 4G Android Development] rygran87:
It's not bogged down by proprietary crap. It's like having Pure Google Android topped with Awesome Sauce
[Epic 4G Android Development] Etrick:
The quadrant scores are crazy because things are not working yet. But it is insane quick now.

For those that don't know... Cm7 is aosp with a whole lot of sexy toys and heavy customization... while aosp may be slightly faster, this will allow u to pretty much theme whatever u want without being a dev or flashing anything.

I think deca fixed some things by quilting in old pieces... might get some new workarounds before source but some fixes might break other things. He's wrapping his head around a lot of things to get this far... this level of functionality is incredible. If u weren't there u should've seen how fast he had our heros working... benchmarking close to 2k in quadrant with everything working... insane for 600mhz and 35 hours plus of batt life.
