Moved the market back to avoid FC's, and added SU-3 and Binaries...

re-uploading T1 as there wasn't enough update to move to T2 yet... so don't download anything until i repost it's complete.

What to expect:

Batt % mod

Possible 9016 fix

Maybe i join a team? Keep watching! ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
posted... market is moved back and SU-3 + binaries have been added.
[Epic 4G Android Development] saramon:
It is confirmed that you can restore with Titanium, I know it is in the OP, but want to make sure. Other gingerbread roms I have tried, when I restore apps, for some reason it says I have empty space but can't install anything from the Market. Thanks, it looks awesome, I will be trying it over the weekend if that is working :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Possible fix for the 9016 Text?!?!?! (Unconfirmed)

So, i did some browsing around sprint, and found this nice documentation...

support.sprint.com/support/article/Block_or_allow_text_messages_from_your_phone/case-cx832318-20091103-160141

Which leads me to this post.

Send a text to: "9999"

Message body: "block 9016"

It will confirm by sending you back a text.

SprintFreeMessage: Text messages from (and to) "9016" are now blocked

I've tested this on my EVO 3D, and I'm still getting voicemails... But my Epic is no longer activated, so i can't test on it.

If someone wants to try this out, then send themselves a voicemail and let me know how it goes, that would be awesome.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bazidl:
Tried and I got the confirmation message...called myself left message still got the 9016
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Back to the drawing board then. Lol

Thanks!

Doesn't this just suck...
[Epic 4G Android Development] saramon:
Just flashed this, and I must say I am impressed, I have tried a few GB roms here and there, but was going to stick with ec05's until CM7 gets 4g fixed (probably a long time), but I think I have found the replacement, and maybe the keeper. I have my google voice integrated, so they handle my voicemails I did receive the 9016 error on my first boot, did as you suggested and haven't receive that error again. This is probably because of the google voice more then anything. Battery life is good... kinda... I am at 82 percent after an hour of use.. pretty extreme use I guess. I have never really had good battery life, I assume that it is because I use my phone more then most. Is it normal for the Android system to be taking above 80 percent of the battery. I am still able to install from market after titanium, so I am all set. Also, when I attempt to run V6 or 3g scripts, I am given a awk error. Is it recommended to run v6 with your ROM. And when I play games like hungry shark the calibration is upside down, and the sensorcalibutil_yamaha wan't there... any ideas on that?

Thank you kindly for this, and I look forward to any future releases.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mis3:
This rom is great. Very smooth and simple, I'm a big fan.

Real easy way to solve the 9016 problem: use Google voice for vm and handcent for texting.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jakmai:
Good question, I ran v6 in MEGA ram mode, idk the naming is strange its " 7. 512HP Super UnLedded {6,12,75,100,125,150}" and my phone boots up... and when launcher loads screen stays black. lol oh well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
I honestly don't know about supercharger... I've only ran it a hand full of times at the ROM in its early stages. I've not run it since like v4 or so... Not sure if anythings been changed that would effect it. I'll look into it though... Sure your using the script right?
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
And I've thought the Google voice over... I don't want to make that the only option... I want vtt working so users have a choice... I'll keep looking around, and thanks for all who tested that out for me... Sorry it didn't work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
In regards to this topic, i don't get the text messages and I may be mistaken but does it happen to people who have google voice only?

The reason I say this is because I never get the text but I have also never used google voice. The only time I got the text was on cm7 because it doesn't have vtt.
[Epic 4G Android Development] saramon:
Yes, I have run it successfully on a few ROMs, I believe that it is because busybox is baked into the kernel and this is probably an outdated version that doesn't contain AWK, that's fine I will back it up and try to install it to see if it sticks or if it gives me a boot loop error, and will get back to you on that. (Edit: Tried out update 8, and it booted my phone into a boot loop... hard to tell it is a boot loop as there is no boot ani)

EdFunkycold, ya using GV integrated appears to have corrected the problem for me, I haven't seen a 9016 error since I set it up on the phone. I also tried to send a block to 9999 and did not receive a confirmation. I only received the error on my initial boot.

And Hoffman, any ideas on the screen orientation, its like I am playing upside down when I need to use the accellerometer (Edit: tried the rotation lag fix for eh17, and this booted me into a reboot loop as soon as it loads the launcher)?
[Epic 4G Android Development] bazidl:
Yes I have to agree with you because I never got the message until I started to mess around with google voice. I tried to deactivate my google voice account but of couse there's no way to do this yet. Maybe changing your default number in GV to another phone other than your epic would get rid of this problem. As far as I can see this is the only issue with this ROM otherwise its amazing!
[Epic 4G Android Development] lys3rgic:
I've never used google voice. or google talk. for that matter. and i've gotten the text msgs only on this ROM. so i don't think that's the problem.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bazidl:
OK nvm then :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
I've explained the issue before... It's nothing to do with GV... It's the mms.apk

The stock app disregards the 9016 txts, and i'm using a CM7 apk... Which is an AOSP base... and has not been edited to do the same as stock.

If i reverted back to the stock mms, these issues would go away. But i hate the stock look. I want the AOSP feel! lol

Having said that... The only workaround to this issue is to get super private conversation (SPC) which can be found on the market, and blacklist the number 9016.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bazidl:
I saw this in another forum today but fig u were lookin for a better solution.
[Epic 4G Android Development] toadlife:
Launcher icon fix

Hey, I put that same Stock launcher that you are using into my ROM and noticed that like the stock email and mms apps, one of the menu icons, the notification icon, was the wrong one. After a couple of hours and dozens of phone reboots I finally found the image it was using.

The image is one of the following in framework-res.apk:

ic_maps_indicator_current_position_anim1.png

ic_maps_indicator_current_position_anim2.png

ic_maps_indicator_current_position_anim3.png

I repalced ic_maps_indicator_current_position.png and that turned out not to be the right one. I was sick of rebooting my phone over and over so I just replaced all of them.

I would guess that the broken icons in mms and email apps are also from framework-res.apk too. Fixing them should just a matter of figuring out which ones are the right ones using the eyeball method.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
Hoffman, ok got a question then, I have been running this for 2 days now, giving it a second spin. The only time I received the 9016 text was under initial boot. I have received countless voicemail in the past few days and not one single text. I flashed it on my wife's phone about 4 hours ago and again on initial boot I received 2 text. After that I have called and left 5 voicemessages and not one single text. Either I am doing something different or I don't understand why people are getting the texts? That's why I asked the noob question as to whether it may be related to people who have a gv account.

EDIT: this rom is running excellent, no reboots and no 9016 texts. Great work Hoff
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Yeah... I've known about it.... Tried to preconfigire it for the ROM... But it just forced closed on boot.

Trying to figure out another way... May just end up going back to the stock app. I'll post more if I do... Attempting ciq removal this weekend, so mms will have to wait.
[Epic 4G Android Development] omair2005:
ROM is running excellent for me! :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
glad to hear it! =)
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
CIQ removal attempt #1 = FAIL lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
Flashed the new release of Nubernel this morning. Everything looks good, running smoothly.
[Epic 4G Android Development] saramon:
Me too, working fine
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Yeah... I'll add it. I keep running into issues with this ciq removal. Keep getting stuck on boot... And I'm not sure why.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mis3:
Any chance next version will have a 1% battery mod? That's the only theming element I really miss.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Yeah... Working on it. Hard finding anyone to give you a point in the right direction around here so I'm decompiling and editing on the fly... Some have worked, some have not. Lol

But to answer your question... Yes it will be on the next test release. Hopefully ciq removed as well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
Hoffman, i have Stocky-ish v6 t1 on my epic and flashed it on wife's phone also. But had not paid attention to this until today, when I look at phone info it displays Stocky-ish v5?? Is this just a typo in the build? I think so cause everything is right, tweaks, fascinate gps, nubernel..
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Yeah...forgot to edit the build.prop.

Sorry,
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
New update is uploading right now... let me know how it goes... and we'll go from there.
[Epic 4G Android Development] gremlyn1:
Flashing!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] orlzzt:
gonna give it a test spin...
[Epic 4G Android Development] mocsab:
Thanks for the work you did on this - I thought I would try it to see how it goes- I have been on the Hurricane Rom - and while I finally got things settled down - have started getting some reboots and I am going to be traveling next week and need something a bit more stable while I am out of town ....soooo...I am curious though - I saw a post that 'email" was missing - I just need to be able to set up email using an excange account..so I just wanted to be sure there is an email apk of some kind - or will need to download something?

Let me know - one more thing - If I have a folder of stock aps from a different EH17 rom - is there any reason why I can't flash that? Or is that not a good idea? (I hope that doesn't sound really stupid :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Email I there... and it's from the nexus S, so one or two of the menu items look funny... but it doesn't block html through exchange so I used it. (Plan on fixing menu items when I get a chance) it 100% works though... as far as your stock apps, I don't see why they wouldn't work, but I left most of the stock stuff on there. Let me know what you're looking for.
[Epic 4G Android Development] gremlyn1:
Very happy to have the stock lock screen back, I really don't like the TW lockscreen. So far so good, we'll see when/if I get my first reboot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mocsab:
Cool and thanks - I will give it a shot and let you know if I am missing anything that i really need - I did a back up of my aps using ROM TOOL BOX - so I can probably just install them from there. Thanks again.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MikeyLee:
Has anyone gotten any reboots with this? I'm starting to get them on Hurricane 1.6 every once in a while
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
I haven't yet... But then again i'm flashing everytime i make changes so i can verify everything works.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mocsab:
Does this have the madgoggins lockscreens?
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Nope, AOSP Lockscreen. Going for the AOSP look...
[Epic 4G Android Development] MikeyLee:
Cool Im probably going to try flashing this along with the Honeycomb Fusion theme.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JungleJiujitsu:
K, thanks for the response!
[Epic 4G Android Development] rckozma:
I can't seem to select a ringtone, everytime I try I get an android system fc, and now I can not even open settings. Thought it might be a bad download, so I downloaded it again and reflashed, but get the same condition.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Did you wipe using CWM 3X? Wouldn't suggest flashing over another ROM, as it doesn't back anything up.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mionky:
Can't change ringtone/notification sounds

I'm having the same problem, but instead of a force close it just freezes and I have to restart the phone.

I odined crawrj's stock version, then flashed this. I did however add crt off and lockscreens after that. I can't change any of the sounds, ringtone nor notifications. Even tried changing the notifications in several apps and it froze as well. I also downloaded Zedge and tried to change ringtone and notifications with that and it froze as well.

I did not restore anything either.
[Epic 4G Android Development] scott47:
I had the same problem but only when I tried to use a ringtone that was not included in the ROM. I don't know if the fact that it's on the SD card makes any difference or not. Afterr I selected a ring tone that was included with the ROM I didn't have that problem any more...but of course I wasn't able to choose the ringtone that I really wanted.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Let me dig around and see if i removed anything that might create this problem... I'll get back to you in a bit.

Edit: Just flashed it again... Can't seem to replicate the problem... Are you flashing anything over it? If so, what?

Also, they have apps that take your media clips... Convert and move them to the proper location for ringtones. Maybe check that out, because i've never heard of this problem before.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mocsab:
I flashed and I like the rom so far - getting a 'google processes framework fc type thing - not sure what to do about it? Thoughts?

---------- Post added at 09:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:15 PM ----------

Getting a few more FC's now - "android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly...?

Google Services Framework FC's when I am in the Market - ?

SHould I start over and reflash or is there something less drastic I can do ?
[Epic 4G Android Development] orlzzt:
X2- force close crash galore
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Maybe odin back to EH17, first? I really haven't had ANY of these issues. Although i haven't flashed roms inbetween... Will give it a go, though.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mocsab:
I also do not have 'contacts' email seems to sync fine - but when I attempt to look at contacts - it is just a black screen - no title - no search - no nothing - like it doesn't exist? I think I need to start over -
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
wipe data/factory reset in CWM 3X... I'm feeling like you may have just wiped the cache.

EDIT: Yeah, i can't replicate this issue for the life of me... Are you flashing anything right after install before rebooting the device? This can cause errors.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tbob18:
I want to like this rom, but I'm having a ton of issues.. Google Services Framework FC's android.process.acore FC's, and random reboots every few hours.

Ubermusic is having some major issues that I've never seen before, cannot skip songs.. The player will totally freeze when I try.

GPS will lock on every once in a while, but most of the time I can't get a lock at all (EH17 modem).

I started fresh btw (yes, 3x wipe data, 3x cache and 3x dalvik cache), not sure what is going on. :confused:
[Epic 4G Android Development] yochaigal:
Wow, just wow!

Works great, super fast, simple, easy.

Does anyone know how to replace the Touchwiz framework with AOSP/CM apps? Contacts, phone/dialer, and calendar?
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Sorry... If i can't replicate the problem, i can't pinpoint the issue. Maybe try odin back to rooted stock, then wipe and go ahead with the ROM. I might post up an RFS version, as i feel EXT4 conversion may be the culprit. (No problems reported while on RFS)

I know the install script needs some fine tuning as well... We'll see how it goes. I'm pretty much spent, so it will have to be some other time this weekend. Keep an eye on the OP.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tbob18:
No worries. I appreciate all the work you've put into it. I'm sure it can be time consuming.

For now I've went back to a ef02 based rom (bamboozle) since the gps seems to work much better for me (6/10 satellites vs 2/10) , and I don't have random reboot issues like on eg22 and later.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mocsab:
I did do the initial flash right - flashed data/cache/delvick then flashed the rom - admittedly - I like a few things you dont have in your rom - like the lock mods - so after flashing your ROM I flahsed Madoggins Lock MOds and mabey that's why I had all the FC's? (however, I had fully rebooted after first flashing the rom and then shut down and went back to CWM to flash the Lockmods) - funny though- I was going to give up and start over and for grins and giggles I flahsed the Honneycomb fusion theme on top of the rom and everything settled down - (I also flashed the Jewe ram script and just to be sure I also flashed journeling on - which I have been told can help correct FC's - in any event, after flahsing Honeycomb Fushion - the GOOGLE Framework FC's stopped and contacts came back - everything seems fine - I will probably reflash sometime tomorrow - just to be sure it is a clean install and try again - thanks for your thoughts and efforts - I will let you know what happens.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bilestoad:
I'm not using this rom, but I've been wondering about a few of these apps, nice to know that I can remove/freeze things like the slate apk and selftest. Thanks!

About choosing which apks to place in data/apps: I'm not a Chef, but I do nosh on ROMs, and from what I can tell, some chefs bake in apk's as system apps, and some bake in the SAME apk's as user apps. For example, sometimes gmail is a system app.

It doesn't actually matter, as far as I can tell, because we can easily remove both classes of apps using a program such as Titanium Backup. However, it DOES matter on the restore. Or I think it does. When I restore one type of file on top of the same file that's the other type, say Gmail as a system app and I restore Gmail as a user app, the system seems to see, as it should, just one gmail program.

HOWEVER, I've noticed that Bloat Freezer sees TWO apps, one a system app and one a user app, and will show them BOTH USING MEMORY. I'm not sure if this is a bug in BF or if two versions of the same app are actually using system resources. Typically my solution has been to use Titanium to uninstall the app (it sees only one version) and then just immediately reinstall it again from its backup on Titanium. After I do this and refresh BF I usually see just one version of the app.

If BF is actually correct that there are two versions somehow in memory when this happens, then I ask developers to somehow come to a consensus about which apps will be 'system' so that on restore there isn't doubling.

I just realized that I didn't google this issue so for all I know it's already been resolved, duh:confused:

As I say I haven't used your ROM but I'm inspired by it, I also hate fiddling with all the apps after trying other things. Thanks for your work! Also to Rockey for his obvious efforts and polite manners!

I should add that I'm using EH17 with Hurricane 1.6.
[Epic 4G Android Development] orlzzt:
Thanks, Hoff! Will try that. I had been on SRF1.2. Did the 3X wipes, then flashed Deca's EH17 rooted stock. I then wiped and installed Stocky-ish.

I should add that I bear some kind of "EH17 Curse', placed on me by my Evo-using wife; every EH17 ROM I've used has crashed like the Hindenburg.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bebobsa:
This ROM is really really really great!!! The first rom that got me away from srf 1.2 and I flashed many gingerbread roms before. If you're having fc's, odin t EH17 then install. A friend of mine had problem with Google framework even with srf 1.2. After the odin, problems gone. Congratulations on your great work!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Well I would have to say, that some apps such as gmail, don't need backups, as they normally sync automatically on install anyway, and don't have many settings to backup... So for things like that, when using Titanium backup, you can opt NOT to backup/install that app, and others.

As far as placing these apps in the /data/app directory, there's kind of nothing we can do about that, as some people prefer to have it there. Either way, it's on device memory, so... I guess only for uninstall purposes?

I appreciate the comments, and keep them coming all! =)

---------- Post added at 12:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:42 PM ----------

Some of Juwe's work is in the SAS tweaks i used... so you may be overlapping init.d scripts. (Bad news bears?)

As for flashing things over top of the ROM... I had already asked this question a few times with no response... I'll try to replicate this issue again, and get back to you.
[Epic 4G Android Development] orlzzt:
So let me get this straight-

You Odin the EH17- then wipe and flash? Or flash right over the Odin'd EH17 build?
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
odin, boot up, let the system setup, then wipe and flash.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rckozma:
Sorry, have not been back on here since I posted....kids needed their day :)

No other ROM, I always always always odin to the recommended version and start new....might take a few minutes longer, but most of the time I know if I have a problem its either the ROM or a bad download.

If you wait long enough when it freezes it will end up fc'ing and you are back to the home screen, but saying that after I get back to the home screen I could no longer go into the settings menu.

Did not try to change it to a pre-loaded ringtone...I like the ones I like...
[Epic 4G Android Development] maltydog:
Seems to be working pretty well so far, but I really do not like the transparent google apps...gmail, voice, market, they are all very hard to read. Is there a quick way I can replace all of these at once?
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Well seen as how transparent gApps aren't a part of the ROM.. just flash the rom and you're done. =)
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Maybe push the ringtones to their respective folder until I can pinpoint the issue? Just a thought...
[Epic 4G Android Development] orlzzt:
Getting FC on the messaging apk...
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
I'm going to revert back to RFS, because i've had none of these issues until EXT4... Hang tight, i'm making a few other changes before i do so.
[Epic 4G Android Development] maltydog:
Sorry about that. Just reflashed and you are right, of course. They were not on my last app, they must have been on something

else I flashed....let me take this one step at a time and figure out where they came from.

Bill
[Epic 4G Android Development] rprockey:
That's a really helpful observation and certainly a relevant problem. Thanks for the info! This thread is one of the most constructive that I've followed. Love it.

---------- Post added at 02:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:43 PM ----------

I could replicate this issue. I added AudioTuning.apk, DrmProvider.apk, DrmUA.apk, and SisoDrmProvider.apk back to /system/app of the rom, re-installed and audio playback freezes are gone. You could try pushing these to /system/app with ES File Explorer and see if it resolves the problem. If you attempt that, please do it one at a time and let us know which of them did the trick.
