Thank you for you hard work And i totaly agree with what you said in your OP.

And the

only

prob i see is you are using buddy'2 kernel + cmw. From what i understand, and PLEASE correct me if im wrong, THat kenel is still a hack of source and initrams from int sg2. The jury still seems 2b out on wether or not there r issuse with that.

Im still currently looking for totaly stock kernel +root+cmw. IF i new how to make, I would.

again correct me if im wrong and thank you.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crawrj:
From my understanding the kernel is built from stock source not the sgs2. However, the cwm is built using the sgs2 binaries to save time. I know a new version is being worked on. I have been using Bubby's stock cwm for about a week and it is working great. Using a jig removed the exclamation mark and the i9100 screen so I am happy where I am. But I am looking forward to a new release that is completely stock with hopefully nothing but boot animation support and init.d. I hate having root and busybox built into the kernel. Just a personal issue.

Great work absolutezerogi!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rukshmani:
CWM first?

Do I need to flash CWM first for this to work? In that case which CWM should I use? I see two versions available.

Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crawrj:
Yes. I use Bubby's.

Looking for something Stable... Hope I find it here ( ACS are normally stable ) giving it a shot now! Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dj21o:
So far, this seems to be the closest we can get, without actually getting there.

I have tried Zedomax, and had a few LOS', no big deal, but I went back to stock.

If I go back to Zedomax (CWM, SuperUser, Root), can I flash this in CWM and have a completely stock rom with CWM, SuperUser, and Root WITH the stock kernel?

Thanks in advance. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AbsolutZeroGI:
Got your developers backwards lol. Zedomax's first kernel was from source and initramfs from the SGSII international. I pulled the initframfs myself for bubby's kernel, it's stock I promise :)

Hi there!

First you must be rooted. If you're not you need to go to one of our root methods and get rooted and get recovery. Then you just flash these in recovery :) However, I will make the instructions a little more detailed for ya.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AbsolutZeroGI:
Hi guys!

UPDATE: Now includes busybox.

Enjoy!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asafegous:
Off topic, but do you suppose cm7 will be compiled using this kernel?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AbsolutZeroGI:
This is stock rom with TouchWiz and Bubby's completely stock rooted kernel. CM is made fro AOSP (Android Open Source Project) source and then ported to a phone. So, CM won't be using this at all lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] realmrealm:
crap!

UPDATE 2 - back in business. needed to flash stock kernel/rom then let it encrypt, then tell it to decrypt, then re-root, re-flash, back to normal again.

I have a problem, I really hope someone can help.

I followed the directions here, and everything worked great.

i was rocking the rom for about a day and then I noticed in settings that I had an option to "encrypt the phone" so stupidly (and obvoiusly not thinking) i did it and was thrown into a boot loop.

I tried rebooting, and nothing.

I tried booting to recovery, and wiping all, and then reflashing this rom. - nothing

I tried doing the volume down and power, then the volume up thing, and then I reapplied the zImage using heimdall and nothing.

Currently - all I can get to is recovery, I can't mount the the phone (nothing shows up on the computer, maybe because it is encrypted?) So I can't even copy something to the phone to try to flash it

Any ideas? - really deperate here, I can't believe I pulled such a newbie move.

download the stock tarball made by crawrj

boot into download mode (volume down + power)

Odin that tar. It'll return you to pure stock (unrooted, stock everything). You should be able to boot then. Do a factory reset once you do (to wipe everything), then you should have a functioning phone to re-root and do whatcha want. Let me know if that works.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dj21o:
Thank you so much OP. I flashed to v4 of Zedomax, then I flashed your ROM in CWM, and now I have everything. CWM, SuperUser, and all of my root apps are working on a deodexed ROM!!!

This is suppose to be stock + but I'm missing a bunch of live wallpapers ans swype now... How do I get these things back?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dj21o:
Yeah, I just got LOS too. Fml.

Sent from my Galaxy S II
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AbsolutZeroGI:
Lol, LOS is a stock problem (which means everything will have it). Samsung has to release an update to fix that, gotta wait for them before LOS is gone forever.

I did not have this issue, but I do know that a few widgets are missing (accuweather, etc). I'll be releasing an update here in a couple days to replace missing things, I'll make sure Swype is still there and the live wallpapers.

This kernel has the LOS issue. Ran 7 days without an issue on stock then went to this and LOS 3 times now in less then 24 hours!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Storm T:
It's not the kernel. It's a known bug with the phone. Samsung / Sprint will have to fix it with an update.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darren.wlsn1:
its stock so dont start that bs in this thread too, you guys (and its most guys with 10 posts) just never read or search you just blame **** on these developers and never think it could be samsungs/sprints issue but it is and they admit it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rkirmeier:
OMG, you guys really need to wake up! I ran stock for 5 day when I first got the phone and had a data issue once, never lost cell service. I went to zedo's kernel and had LOS several times a day for 2 days. Went back to stock and ran 7 days without a single issue. I load up this kernel and have LOS 3 times in 1 day. Don't tell me it's not the kernel! :eek:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darren.wlsn1:

http://community.sprint.com/baw/thread/76962

As you can see, Sprint and Samsung are on top of this issue, which has been PROVEN to be an error with stock phones. Everyone knows that root makes the issue a little worse, but the problem was there before any of you rooted your phones.

I'm going to post this link in the OP when I update my rom later as well. Midnight Rom, Starburst Rom, AEMod, all the kernels, etc etc will ALL have these problems right along with unrooted stock users because this is a Samsung/Sprint problem, not a hacker community problem.

It sucks, yes, but it is not our fault :) I get LOS same as the rest of you.

I'm missing swype too, anyone got the apk?

Never mind, just installed the beta and like it a little better than the stock version.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rkirmeier:
Its not a little by any means what's so ever. I have had 1 issue in over two weeks of running OEM stock and flashing the eg30 stock kernel yet I can't get over 3-4 hours in these alternate kernels without LOS. There may be a stock issue but its 100 times worse with the non stock kernels! Say what you want about my limited posts but I'm no rooting noob and I know when my phone has LOS! I think its fair for people reading this and looking to root should know that there is a serious LOS issue here with this and other kernels/rom's. Some of you guys are in such denial is just crazy...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dj21o:
I agree. Look in battery usage (settings), red under phone signal is LOS, and it dropping directly down in percentage indicates LOS.

I get it 3-4 times a day too. My girlfriend has the same phone (stock), in the same house, and never gets an LOS. She has never even had one yet. And I manage to get them 3-4 times a day.

It doesn't add up.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sader2202:
This is probably a stupid question but, have anyone notice any LOS on this rom because I'm getting it on the Odin version. P.beta I am also on Zedomax's 1.6 ghz kernel v4.1 beta. Just curious to if its the rom or kernel. Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rkirmeier:
Yes, I had LOS on this rom/kernel. I did not re-flash a different kernel over this as you must have to have Zedos V4.1 which is known to also have the LOS issue. Just to be clear all kernels including stock have LOS but the non-stock ones have it 100 times worse. I have 1 case of LOS in over 2 weeks on stock and get it every 3-4 hours on these alternate kernels. I'm staying with the ACS EG30 stock kernel + root for now until the LOS issues is completely solved...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AbsolutZeroGI:
1. there is no tar version of this rom...so whatever rom you're talking about, it ain't this one.

2. this does not run zedomax's kernel, it runs chris41g's kernel (which is EG30 Stock and he's ACS...so you went from one ACS stock kernel to another rkirmeier).

3. LOS is a samsung/sprint problem, not a kernel/rom problem. they know about the problem and they're going to fix it eventually, but for now ALL roms and ALL kernels even down to stock and unrooted phones have the LOS bug, so there's no point in asking about it. Until they release a fix, assume everything on the forums and off the forums has it, even if you're stock and unrooted.

Please don't argue, I have all the links on the internet showing where people who didn't have root (and never had root) got LOS, so it IS an out-of-the-box problem. Sorry.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] silversx80:
Not to mention there's a dedicated thread regarding the issue. No need to apologize, IMHO.

The deodexed ROM is working well. I'd like to flash the update with swype, even though I installed the beta, but I just got all the crapware off and it's running well enough as is.

Battery life is still up in the air, however.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Pitnefor:
I am not convinced about stock people getting LoS. My GF has the exact same phone as me (epic 4g touch). I got mine from wirefly, she got hers from best buy. We both got it on launch day.

So we live in the same house and I asked her if she ever got LOS and had to reboot to get signal back. She said no

I also never got it until I started putting custom kernel. I was stock for about 10 days before I flashed anything. I got my first LOS the same day I flashed something. Now, regardless of which Kernel or ROM i've used, I get LOS at least once a day. Usually more
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] silversx80:
Your data pool is too small to make that claim. For one, I've gotten LoS on stock, before I did anything to root.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rkirmeier:
Sorry but you are WRONG!

Here is my history..

Stock phone - 5 days - NO LOS but lost data once.

Zedo v1 - LOS every 3-4 hours (2 days of this BS)

Zedo v3 - LOS every 3-4 hours (out of town - full weekend of this BS)

ACS EG30 Stock - over 7 days without a single LOS!!!

ACS Stock Rooted Deodex (this thread) - LOS 3 times in 1 day

ACS EG30 Stock - NO LOS is 24 hours

You guys can keep telling yourself the lies and blaming it on Spring/Samsung but your are wrong! I'm not saying there is not an issue on a stock phone but it is 100 times worse on these kernels/roms. End of story, it's as simple as that! Quit denying it!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] silversx80:
First off, this isn't the place for this argument. Second, the results of one are not statistically reflective of the whole field. Third, Spring/Samsung acknowledge there is an issue, and their data field is much more substantial than xda-developer's.

Basically, you are wrong. I had LoS within the first few hours I had the phone, and several more while still on stock. I've had ONE LoS since flashing a custom kernel... ONE.

The fact that the results are not repeatable means that it's something else than what we've been trying. Sprint/Samsung know, and they're working on it. Period.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rkirmeier:
Then go else where is argue it. You all say this is not the place to discuss then post your argument! Are you a complete hypocrite or what?

I have never said there is no Sprint/Samsung issue! I have said there is a LOS issue that is 100 times worse with the non stock kernels and that is a fact! There is no question about it. Not sure if there is different hardware factors or what when I am on the ACS EG30 Stock kernel (pulled from non-rooted phone thead) I DON'T have any LOS, at least not in over 14 days I have run this kernel if I load an alternate kernel, even the one here which claims to be stock, I get LOS within 3-4 hours.

This is the place to post this so users who read this thread and be educated that they may have serious LOS issues if they load this! If you want to take that chance or claim your phone has the same LOS issues on the stock kernel the good for you but those of us how don't have LOS on stock should be able to make a educated decision about loading this kernel/rom before hand.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] silversx80:
More speculation than education going on about the LoS issue. Case in point, my phone is better off with a custom kernel than stock, based on my experience.

Leaving that behind...

Updated to the most recent and still getting a force close with android.process.acore when I try to select a ringtone from "my files" for a particular contact.

I can't believe that people are still b****ing about LOS in this and other development threads, please keep it clean for the OP's sake and everyone elses

Huge thank you to everyone putting in the hard work and long hours so we can all enjoy this phone more
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AbsolutZeroGI:
Okay first try booting into recovery and re-wiping cache and dalvik and see if that works (if you're running noCIQ, that's a suggestion from k0nane himself).

If that doesn't work:

Try using a file explorer (root explorer, ES, Astro), go to the ringtone in your sd card and opening it. while it's playing, his menu>set as>contact.

When I did it like that, I was able to successfully set an mp3 as contact tone. I can't recreate your problem but once I can I'll get set on fixing it. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AbsolutZeroGI:
There's people in the general forums who still believe there's a 60fps cap on our phones, even after I posted a screenshot of quadrant standard where it was running 63fps (over 60, ergo no cap). Gotta take it with the grain of salt. The important people (Samsung/Sprint) know the problem and know that all phones carry the bug deep down and they will fix it eventually. Whatever gets said between now and then is just people blowing off steam because they can't accept they bought a phone that came with a problem stock (they should get an iphone...oh wait, they have LOS too!!!)

And you're very welcome. I put in the long hours so you guys can enjoy what I enjoy...this freaking awesome, super beastly phone!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] silversx80:
Stupid me... had to do that on my OG Epic with a couple ROMs.

OK, just trying to run things through their paces. Once I updated to the latest, my phone disappeared from the android market (the web-based, push service). Don't know if it's the ROM or not. Will restore my backup to see.

Restored the backup and my E4GT is recognized by the market again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rkirmeier:
Frankly I am 100% happy with my phone running the ACS EG30 stock kernel + root. I have not had a single LOS with this setup. I just like to try new things and would like a deoxed rom so I gave this rom/kernel a try. It's really not a big deal, I flashed back and everything is working great again but people should know this before flashing...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AbsolutZeroGI:
I just successfully pushed Pandora Radio to my phone (and actually still had my OG Evo and G2 attached to it), so it can't be the rom. When you flashed, did you wipe everything? Also, are you signed into the correct gmail account?

I'm not entirely sure how many more ways I can say this

To own a Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4g Touch means that you are (or can be) affected by the LOS bug at any time, without warning and your experience with it is completely arbitrary and random compared to every other user. Joe Camel could get it on stock unrooted, the Marlboro man could get it rooted with Starburt rom, I get it twice a day no matter what I'm running. Warning people off of my rom because of a bug that CAME STOCK WITH THE PHONE is basically just bashing my rom. If you have LOS problems, there are a number of threads in the general section to compare notes with the other people who, for whatever ridiculous reason, still think that root causes this problem.

I'm not trying to sound mean, but seriously, enough is enough. My rom or chris41g's kernel does NOTHING to prevent or cause LOS. It's luck, pure, unadulterated luck. I will be answering NO MORE questions or comments about LOS. It's common knowledge what it is, where it came from and what's causing it. If it happens to you, I'm sorry, there's nothing to be done. Flash the rom that works best for you, but DO NOT come in here and bash the work. I, nor any of the devs who helped with this, caused the problem. End. Of. Story.

In the apps and themes section, blownco has a few battery mods with percentages (all come with the crt screen-on/off mod as well). The only things I add to this are the basic under the hood stuff.
