Hello,

Is anyone else having a issue with the lock screen lagging? When I turn the screen on, it stays frozen for a while before the "null/null" pops up in the upper corner. Then I can unlock it, but usually the screen turns off before I can unlock it.

Any suggestions would be helpful. I tried experimenting with the settings and not much has worked to fix it.

Thanks for all your work! [=

Big smile on this mans face! :)

Are you still planning on putting the stock kernel in some point soon at all? I'm temped to odin bubby's stock kernel over your ROM but don't want to lose root for the apps I use that need it like root explorer and terminal emulator.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] expertzero1:
dam i guess ill give this mod a try!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhantomHacker:
Really wating on a custom kernel to come out. Hopefully it will be soon. If not i may have to get my hands dirty and do it myself.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sk63:
root is in the rom, not the kernel. You can flash the stock kernel and keep root.

However you will need to flash the CWM kernel from ODIN in order to flash updates to this ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Perhaps we could help eachother out....

I kept root, I flashed the stock kernal (eb30). No LOS so far, not since I flashed it around 12pm (before it was doing it a few times a day). I understand it has happens to unrooted phones, but in my case I never got it til I flashed the new kernal. I like this rom, not saying otherwise. Thanks phantom!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JasonK75:
So by flashing did you use Odin and this kernel from bubby posted at this thread? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1273647

Is there any way to disable the animation that happens when the power button is pressed to turn off the screen? Im a fan but there some static like image popping up on my screen before the screen turns off.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GeneralSky2004:
That would be the CRT off animation. You can delete it I'm sure, however, I don't know where it's located. If you go into your settings, display and turn the animations off, it should go away.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vega:
its that old school crt image when you tv would turn off when those old tv were around. you know those heavy ass ones from the 70's

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] saywhat4118:
Download the app spare parts and change the window animations to fast instead of normal. It'll turn off your screen off animation and I agree. I am a huge fan of the screen off but it doesn't look right or natural. It looks a lot better on my other phones.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ehusidic:
is anyone else having trouble with the power button not responding? I tried to reboot and it still wont turn the screen on or off the only way I can get the screen to come on is if I connect it to a charger or usb port to the computer. If i hold the button down it will not bring up the option to power off the phone. I downloaded quickboot to reboot the phone in recovery and the power button wont allow me to select any options in recovery. Now when I do a battery pull the phone boots me back to recovery. Does anyone know a solution to this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] saywhat4118:
After flashing this rom my 3G isnt working. Wifi is working fine and so is 4G but no go on 3G. I did wipe before coming from midnight rom where 3G was working. 3G under wireless section in settings is checked. Tried going to airplane mode and back, didnt work. Any suggestions?

Ah, thank you!

Also, has anyone figured out the problem with the sound codec? I can't play games for more than 5 minutes without them crashing. ]= Some of them I can turn the sound off for and the others, even if I do, they crash.

Thanks, all.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] magoo5289:
First day upgrading over from the Epic and I was having the blank screen issue something fierce. Eventually got it working by:

Formating system, wiping data, cache, dalvik

Installing 1.9

Wipe cache and dalvik

installing 1.95

Hope this helps someone else.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nosolee Toxin:
It would help if you gave us some more info, like ROM version, kernel, and what game, so we can test it too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Has anyone had any issues with 1.9.5 while making calls. My phone would freeze or nkt even let me make a call. Until I rebooted and everything was working fine again.

thanks its GREAT!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cvnntg:
Hello,

I'm using the latest ROM (v1.9.5), the kernel that came with that ROM, and am trying to play Dungeon Defenders, Second Wave.

Thanks for your help!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] polakowt:
Had the same problem today.was able to fix it by going into applications and clearing the data and cache on the gmail app.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nosolee Toxin:
It sounds like your getting LoS, or ghost LoS.

I'm downloading the game now(big game), let you know how it goes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chunology:
Did you remember to format system before flashing the rom? Also, what Kernel are you running?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nosolee Toxin:
Does anyone know if Phantom changed the kernel with 1.9.5? I was running on 1.8 and 1.9 sense they came out and no LoS.

Updated last night to 1.9.5 following the op instructions and already had 2 LoS.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Yeah I wiped out everything. I am using the latest lost kernal that comes with starburst
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JoeBruin32:
I checked when I updated -- kernal between 1.9 and 1.9.5 is the same. I don't think LoST Kernal has come out with anything recently either, so it's probably same as 1.8.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] euklid:
Does this ROM not support custom boot animations?? How can I get a custom boot in here plz help i tried moving the zip file and it didnt work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nosolee Toxin:
He was talking about step 2 above from the orginal post.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chunology:
1) I'm not sure on this one either but I don't use the stock browser.

2) Do you have an external sd card? When the phone is in deep sleep the phone powers off it's external sd card slot in an effort to save battery. The hang time is caused by the phone waking the external sd card slot and doing a scan before the phone wakes.

3) Some of the lockscreens on the starburst ROM have an issue with freezing/rebooting the phone. Which lock screen are you using?

4) I may be wrong on this one but, this is because the lockscreen mod is not an actual lock screen - it's a layer that sits on top of the actual lockscreen. Sometimes when waking your phone from sleep it takes a second for the lockscreen to kick in. I notice this happens mostly when waking your phone up a second or two after you've put it to sleep - this is due to the fact that when you press the HOME key there is a five second delay from putting your phone to sleep (something like that, I may be wrong here - press home LOCK LOCK really fast and you'll see what I'm talking about).

The freezing issue is most likely due to the type of lockscreen you are using. Stay away from the honeycomb/4 tab lockscreens.

5) That's very odd. I've never had this issue on any version of the ROM i've been running.

6) No idea. Sorry.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nosolee Toxin:
I figured as much, just have to re-flash i guess.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] spitefulrain:
Have you made any progress figuring out why the statusbar icons change from your theme to stock? If you are even looking that is.

1.9 is running great, about to flash 1.9.5 and experience the best yet :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nosolee Toxin:
yes use "rom toolbox" that comes with the last update or just download it from the market. It works pretty good and has a lot of other cool features.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Alex1x:
I'm on v1.8 (see below attachment) will for sure update to the next release, but I have 1 problem... No visual voicemail :(

I have to call and listen to the vm's old school way... Any idea/fix? Please...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chunology:
The latest version of LoStKernel (experimental) is 1.0.0.8 (I believe Starburst uses the experimental Kernel)

To find out the version of the kernel you're running open terminal emulator and type:

uname -a

I highly recommend that you flash to 1.0.0.8. I'm running 1.9.5 and 1.0.0.8 and it's the best ROM/Kernel combo i've used on the phone since I've got it (release) and I flash ROMs 2-3 times weekly.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Alex1x:
No visual voicemail, please help
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chunology:
For those of you having visual voicemail issues - have you tried using google voice? All sprint numbers are google voice capable and I find the google voice visual voicemail to be better than the sprint visual voicemail.

Phantom, I'm not sure if you're going to see this but I notice that the SPEAKER icon (when talking on the phone) is not themed green. Not sure if you're aware of this or not but I love the GREEN theme of this ROM and it bugs me a little when I'm talking on the phone and see that the speaker icon isn't themed ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nosolee Toxin:
When you update it will put vvm back on the phone, should work right out of the gate.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
The game crashing issue is a known issue for E4GT. Samsung claims to be looking into it, but without active complaints there won't be much movement.

Go to the thread on this in the general section and you all can get info on who to bug. I received a twitter response last week from Samsung Support saying they were looking into it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nosolee Toxin:
1.9.5 is running, LoStKernelExp+ v1.0.0.2, after running that cmd you gave me, will update to 1.0.0.8 see if it helps thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for the heads up Just_s

I just played the game for like 20 mins and the only problem I had with it was if you lock the phone and return to the game the screen is messed up. Running the same stats as you cvnntg.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cvnntg:
I can't get past the first level. ]= I mean, I can get through about the first 4 rounds, but then it crashes. No force close. Just closes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nosolee Toxin:
Did you try uninstalling and re-installing the game?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JoeBruin32:
Sorry for my miss-information, I just looked at the kernel under about and it had the same name, so I assumed it was the same
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nosolee Toxin:
I think you were right though, I don't think he changed the kernel. He would've told us in the changelog if he did. Either way it's cool bro.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kwan:
For those having Los issues, have you tried the pulled stock kernel?

I haven't had an Los for days since I switched. I'm also running the Los checker script that's supposed to auto reboot in case of Los, even for ghost Los. But I haven't had one since, so I can't say if the script works or not. But that's a good thing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KaliS-Pugilist:
I had a problem with visual voicemail too and found that the problem was actually coming from my sms app (go sms). of you are using it or handcent, then try uninstalling the app (make back from within the app first), then check voicemail, if working proceed to reinstall the app, but make sure you don't select the option to disable all sms functions in other apps. you can set the stock sms to not send notifications.

as for the sprint google voice integration, I don't like it as I have a separate number for google and like it to work on its on, not linked specifically to my sprint number. using both a lot and a long time, I actually prefer sprints visual voice app, but like google voice too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Trev186:
Thank you

I was curious is it possible to hook up usb storage the special samsung attachment cable on this rom

I would like to try hooking up a thumb drive
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nosolee Toxin:
I haven't yet, was running great for awhile, something to think about though if I keep having the issue. Also I did see that script from viper and was going to give it a try but I'm going to play with kernels for a little bit before i give it a go.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] schwab002:
Yes I've experienced both of these.

One more bug: This happened to me twice on 1.8 and once on 1.9.5 where I'll call someone but it doesn't go through and there is no ringing but it says I'm still in the call, and when I press the red button to hang up it doesn't do anything and if I press the home button, it'll go to home, but the status bar will remain green indicating that I'm still in a call. I have to reboot to get rid of it so I can try to place the call again.

those having issues with VVM, try going back to SB v1.8 backup VVM using Titanium Backup. Restore Sb v1.9.5 from Nand backup then using TB, try restoring VVM data only. When you restore VVM, make it the last thing you do. My VVM is working 100% doing this method and coming from v1.8 then v1.9 then v1.9.5 = trouble free. hope this helps.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rpnunez:
Great ROM! However, a few questions:

1. Is there a new Clock app in this ROM? If ss, how can I disable it? I like the stock Clock app, and don't see anything wrong with it. (Unless I missed something in the new clock, please LMK!)

2. How to change the green to blue? C'mon... ICS is coming out! It's blue, not green! Haha. Just kidding. But really. I even changed the overscroll glow to the ICS blue (ICS Blue HEX: 3F9BBF) Lol :)

3. I had 1.9 installed, I just downloaded 1.9.5, moved it to SD card, formatted /system, and when I tried to flash over 1.9, I got a weird error. Don't remember the error, but point is it said "Failed". Restarted into CWM, CWM wouldn't stop saying "can't detect /cache", "can't detect /system". I was like... omg. It was too late at night, so I decided to sleep on it, woke up, flashed with Odin Stock EG30 Deodexed with Root 3.0/Busybox 1.18.4 and everything is back to normal. Did I do something wrong? Should I have formatted/wiped more?

4. This is a really picky question, but why in Settings is "Lockscreen settings" called "Lockscreen settings"? It does so much more than control the Lockscreen. Like I said, picky question haha :D

5. Is there a way to disable the green "handle" on the notifications bar? Sorry, but I really hate that. Gives the style a real cheap look. Also, is there a way to turn off the clear notification background?

- I think these should both be options in "Lockscreen Options".

All in all, I love all of the performance tweaks, but for my taste, the style tweaks aren't too there. But it's still great! I know it can be easily themed, and at the end of the day this is all free and works perfectly and can't complain, but these are all just my friend suggestions/questions/2 cents.

Awesome ROM, blazing fast and let's not even get started about AnTuTu/Quadrant scores.

Keep up the great work. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] th3taman:
I have issues 2 and 3 mentioned above. 3 being the most irritating and is to the point of almost leaving the ROM. I will try the suggestion from chunology and switch my lockscreen. I would add the puzzle lockscreen to the list of problems. I will go back to the rotary...anyone know if that works ok? I honestly don't even use them, I use WidgetLocker. Just want the reboots to stop...they have become very annoying.

I don't like the lag in the lockscreen wake up, but not as big of an issue as the restart problems.

I have also had issues with Wifi not staying connected and seem to be roaming a more than usually. I think I'm going to flash the stock kernel and pray it fixes some things or I might have to go back to stock for now.

I hope not, really like some of the other customizations in this ROM.

EDIT: So much for switching the lockscreen...just had a restart with the rotary. My phone was just sitting on my desk...wasn't even doing anything with it. That's the second one this morning already. Guess flashing stock kernel is last possible way to fix?

Same issues here...I use Widget Locker..combination Sense 3.0 and ICS lock screens...awesome combo....even more annoying then the restarts for me is the Wifi constantly dropping out. I generally can fix that with turning wifi off and then back on, but having to do that several times an hr is just plain annoying.....

Where is our Fixes Samsung....get a move on :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] th3taman:
I have the Wifi drop out issues as well. Had them on stock too, but it seems amplified on this ROM...going from maybe a couple a day to one every couple of hours.

I love my ET4G...but miss my Wifi on my EVO 3D. It was definitely superior...I didn't have all the connection issues...sigh.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
I don't get why so many people have problems with reboots, lockscreen lag, etc....Never had any of those issues and I use widget locker as my main, I've also used rotary along with all the others with no issues. What fix are you guys waiting from samsung??...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sturmie:
Is this the case for everyone with Widget Locker? I have really grown to love this app.

Also, I have seen posts about ghost LOS and this is the main reason I only ran Midnight's ROM for a day some weeks back...I can live with LOS if it only happens once every few days (which is the case with the LOStKernel I'm running), but if I don't get the "circle with a line through it" to tell me it's experiencing LOS, then that's a deal breaker for me.

Switching routers fixed it for me. I've known there's also different tablets that have issues communicating with different brands of routers, wondered if this phone suffers the same. Went to a families house for the day and connected to there wireless, never had any issues. I had a Trendnet N router. Bought a Netgear wndr3800 and have had no wifi issues since.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] th3taman:
Believe me...I wish I had no reboots, but they are there. I even had it before loading everything back on to my phone.

Can't really do that at work. I just updated my router up home so not doing that either. I don't think the routers are the problem anyway.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vgamer4550:
I think it bears repeating that this should be a place where suggestions, questions, and answers are relayed and portrayed.

Just because an issue is not happening to you in particular does not mean that this is not a real issue for someone else.

What might be a little more beneficial here is if you have seen this issue and came up with a fix that worked for you, then share with all of us because it might work for others.

The biggest issue I think right now Samsung needs to fix is the LOS issues. If by design the phone checks the SD card on wake up and that causes the screen to lag a few seconds before it wakes up then that is a poor design and is another thing they need to figure out. Switching routers is not an option for many people. The question then is if these routers worked fine on my Evo 4G what is wrong with this "better" phone.

This is a flag ship phone, and should have high priority for them...maybe thats wishful, perfect world thinking, but we need to keep letting them know that we know about the problems and THEY need to fix them.

I have used both wifi tether(downloaded from market) and the sprint hotspot. The sprint app for some reason wont do 4g for me, it just starts to cycle again and never relocks, does 3g though.

Can't uninstall apps.

I'm curretly running 1.9.5. I've done every update since 1.5. Love the ROM. Would prefer blue over green, though. I occasionally have the lockscreen lag; sometimes, it will "hang" for about 15 seconds, then continue.

Anyway, I just noticed this morning, I'm unable to remove (uninstall) apps. I pull up the apps list, long click on an app and drag it to the trash can (labeled remove). And I end up back on one of the home screens (which ever one I was on before clicking the apps button).

I believe, as soon as the long press registers, it's sending me back to the home screen with the icon i clicked still under my finger, like it's trying to remove a shortcut. Shouldn't the trashcan be saying "uninstall" instead of "remove"? I can't remember from the stock version.

I tried to uninstall several apps this morning, but they just won't uninstall. I'm sure I could uninstall with TB, but it should work from the android apps list.

Thanks for the ROM!
