Very nice! I haven't had any reboots in several days now, which is a marked improvement over v1.8.

I'm using LoStKernel 1.0.2.3 and I'm unable to set voltages in SetCPU. Is anyone else running 1.9.8r having the same problem?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] expertzero1:
You need to run experimental kernel for that? Or use targrak or whatever it's called for the standard kernel..

Not sure. I keep wifi on at home and 4g on all day. GPS is always off. I don't use fb much.

Honestly I'm on it 24/7...

Today I haven't switched 4g on and since 6am I'm at 81%.

I'm at 9 hours unplugged and at 88% battery. I'm really impressed and this is what I did.

-Installed ROM 1.9.8.r

-Charge up battery to full. Unplug. Power off. Plug in power and charge to full. Unplug and boot into Recovery. Wipe Battery Status. Waited till battery was at 1% and charged up all the way.

- I also uninstalled as much as possible, like AP Mobile, buddies now, accu-weather, even Voicemail (ONLY because I am flashed to Cricket and VM doesnt work)

- Even though Starburst has this I still did it - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1312591

- Installed this modded LoS checker - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19326576&postcount=249

- SetCPU. underclocked to 200mhz min, 800mhz max, conservative. Undervolted everything 50mv.

I'm on day 1 of this setup and blown away how I'm at 9hours already and at 88%. I'll keep these settings and monitor the battery life throughout the week.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ericlikeseatin:
if you're on 1.9.8r, can you let me know what kernel you're running? for some reason, i've lost the ability to undervolt with the LoStkernels (all 3 recent versions) and starbusrt 1.9.8r :(

flash to Starburst a few hours ago. so far so good. I only got one LOS but im sure it'll get better.

The ony question have is it safe to use the sprint hotspot? am i goign to get charge extra for it?

I remember reading that sprint limited the use on that or something along that line.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MarcelKC21:
Then thats the way i will go with. Will try it out now
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
Or at worst you could try mounting USB storage in cwm, transferring rom file to internal storage, and flashing the rom from there
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
I'm assuming its safe since OP says hotspot hacked.

Root with Odin again and it should solve your problem.

You can do fresh install. If u do get issue just use calkulins format zip
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stevenp1200:
Is anyone having issues with GPS? Rom flows really nice. I have had 1.9.8r since its release on the 13th, but been having progressive issues with the GPS. Was pin pointing my exact location on the 1st day. Every other day after the 1st seem to veer further away from my exact location until today. It seems to hop around my next door neighbor to the house behind me. When driving the GPS indicates my position one street away from reality. I tried rebooting but immediately after finding my location, my re-branded S2 disappoints me and throws my location a house away. My last phone (EVO) pinpointed exactly where I was at, all the time.

Yes I have searched and could not find anything regarding Starburst and GPS. I've tried ##GPSCLR#, but that did not work. I am also aware of the "location" settings under "Settings." If this is an issue, will the S2 community be like the Samsung Moment community and accept it due to Learned Helplessness?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] robosiris:
Just noticed something odd or strange as I was looking at the removed apps from latest build. I noticed "snsaccountfb", "snsaccounttw", "snsaccountli", "kies wifi", "kies air", "socialhub" were still installed. I removed them. Just an observation.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] G1-8701:
Never had it on this ROM, but had that issue on Caulk's ROM, at one time it couldn't find my location, then when it did, it gave me the wrong directions, i'd say either reboot, or go to recovery, complete wipe, and reflash v1.9, reboot setup your device and let everything completely sync, the boot back into recovery then flash 1.9.8r and u shouldn't have any problems. This was my process coming from caulk's ROM and my GPS is working great
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
Quick question. With starburst you flash a theme, to change your theme to a different one you would just flash that theme just as you did the first time correct? Well if you do that and it does not change either I didn't do it right or theme is not compatable? Search with the xda sucks and don't have my pc right now, so sorry if its been asked. Rom is 1.9, first theme is Honeyglow v3 and trying to go to ICS v1.5 beta2. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 3volution:
Which theme?

Link me please?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mimis_69:
The theme is in overstews ICS thread, just look through the posts and you'll find the link.

Sorry if this has already been answered, but I'm having trouble searching the forums from this app:

1) what is the benefit (real or perceived) of AOSP email over stock? Is it worth restoring back 2 this ROM? (Read on before answering)

2) I have what appears to be two different sized .zip files (of aosp email) posted within this thread, but can't get either to flash. Do I need to do more than flash from cwm?

3) I use Yahoo email, and even though they've finally got imap, push doesn't seem to work. So I've been using K9 mail, polling every 15 mins, but I fear that the resulting wakelocks are keeping the phone awake excessively, even when screen is off. I thought k9 would help bc of the detailed level of push/poll customization, but alas, only polling works w Yahoo, so its no different than stock. Suggestions? (Please don't respond to this by suggesting I use gmail; its not a viable option right now.)

** I almost forgot. Yahoo has a mobile app w/mail, but the interface is pretty lame (e.g., splash screen every time you look in your in-box, no re-sizing, etc.) and as I recall (prior to using Starburst anyway), the app was not 'efficient' in the way its processes consumed battery/kept phone awake (Yahoo app, are you surprised?).

Why cant you get the long press of the search button to use a voice search. it used to use the google but that is not even an option and neither is vlingo. comes in hand when driving to be able to dial a number like that. pretty limited options in the user interface setting on what you can do with that. anyone else get this working?

Hi! Excellent ROM! I am, however, getting more FCs and mini reboots with v 1.9.8 than with the previous version. I make sure I follow all flash instructions. I know that all phones are different and results will vary. I have gone back several pages to see if this has been addressed or resolved, but no luck. Anyone reading this: if you have found a solution or have a suggestion to the mini reboots then I would appreciate it! Just fyi: I flash and use as is. I don't tweak or add anything additional other than my usual favorite apps.

I'm getting a lot of the hot reboots and very annoying los/reboot when talking on the phone. I flashed the all wipe, then the ROM...i then restored data from the nandroid backup.

hopefully there is a fix soon. I may try reflashing with no data restore over the weekend to see if that makes a difference.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] expertzero1:
Try that first before making the post
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KaliS-Pugilist:
I've actually done that first with previous versions of the ROM, to no avail... but thanks for your helpful advice. I just dont feel like installing everything manually again. especially when, it didn't fix the issue in the past.

Get the dialer from version 1.5 and with root explorer move it to system/app and that should solve your problem.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xmatic:
I am having problems and can't seem to resolve this after reading through all these posts. I rooted through odin and installed the los kernel which gave me root and cwm5. When I wiped the data via Calkulins's format zip or even manually the phone locks up at the galaxy black boot up screen. I then tried restoring stock rom/kernel and this time around i wiped the data manually and didn't touch the system folder. I was then able to boot up in starburst rom however I get constant crashes on the status bar that renders this useless. After countless searching nothing seems to work. I even tried stock kernel-followed by Rogue factory kernel- and then full wipe and same problems! any help would be appreciated. I have rooted many devices before and so far I am stuck with this problem. Any help would be appreciated. By the way, the roms are being installed via my SD card, don't know if this has anything to do with it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xbiker321:
You need to Wipe with the Calk zip, then flash ROM immediately. Do not reboot. If you have problems it could be a corrupt zip file. Redownload the zip files, transfer to sd card and try again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xmatic:
Thanks for your quick reply, but I tried this process and still doesn't work for me. I got the zip file from the link that's up here. I tried re downloading a few times from here and other sites just to negate the possibility of a corrupt file and nothing. I am still stuck in the black galaxy boot up screen. I been at this for two days now and still can't seem to get this up and running. I am frustrated as hell lol

By the way, how much time should the black galaxy screen stay up before booting into rom upon first flash? just because I read it will take a while longer to boot up upon first flash and full wipe.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graffix31:
My fault. I totally just missed what I was doing wrong. Feel so dumb. Thanks., all set
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xmatic:
Figured it out, should of known! it was due to a faulty and corrupt sd card. Swapped the sd card and boom! it worked! thanks!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JoeBruin32:
Popular ones seem to be starburst and calkulin. Both are stable once installed properly. People seem to have more problems installing starburst (most of the time, they can't read directions). If you are installing, and then handing off, either will work fine. I've used and appreciated both. Currently on calkulin.

Today I had the worst day ever with startburst rom for some reason every Tim I sent a text I got a message not sent and the I thought it was LOS rebooted my phone 50 times and still got the same message not sent error even tho they went thru I think ima do a fresh install o and I'm not blaming the rom for my problems I'm just saying as long as I've been on this rom today has been the worse day

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
Biggest benefit for me is that AOSP email allows you to check multiple emails at once for marking read, unread, delete, etc.

You need to manually push the apk to the system /app folder via adb or a root explorer AND modify permissions.

If you search my posts you can find the proper apk and a how to. The larger sized apk is the one I posted and seems to work best for most. If you have trouble, let me know.

I'll put in the suggestion that *if* the included kernel is giving you trouble, check out the new Rogue kernel. I was on Starburst 1.8 before with no issues and then flashed 1.9.8r and immediately got multiple instances of LOS, and I wasn't loving the battery life, either. Some here swear by the included kernel, though, so obviously know that ymmv and you should check them out and see what works best for you.

Yeah, when you rename make sure there are no spaces and only letters, numbers, . , _ , or - are used in the name. Also keep it short and simple. I always rename mine no issues.

I usually keep the first part (date) and then add the desired info. Something like this has worked for me since the G1:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
One way I do it is I just add what it is in front of what it already says. Then when I need to flash I first go delete what I added to the one I want. Even if you mess up you can fix the name as long as your by a pc.
