ah c'mon guys don't bust the chops of those who immediately wanna ask questions, just direct and move on or dont respond pls! i hate reading a page that just has semi-noob-bashing statements... use search this thread option first! works best imho

I noticed that i cannot click links in msg app! is that the whole mms thing? cause it force closes with mms error.. don't know if thats something different than stated or not...

I noticed also that if i turn volume down then up it regulates the audio quality in a call but my headphones send audio to the phones earpiece as well as the headphones in a call... if it's useful or not, idk

I am hoping for the update to have a seperate link to whats been updated if possible too cause i have the phones 3g speed to rely on cause my wifi is dialup speed

Thanks Everyone!

Especially decadence ! LOL

Agreed. If you're going to reply to someone who asked a simple question, instead of being a jerk to him, be a nice guy and give him an answer.
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
Who's being a jerk? The answer is always, "Read the thread, and try searching."

Besides, sometimes the question really is posted as follows:

In which case, the answer is, "We're too lazy to help you until you're no longer too lazy to put in effort of your own."

Anyone else getting a wifi-loop with the newer build? It will keep dropping when it says picking up IP from my network. Im gunna try to reflash the eh17 modem and see if that makes a difference but the modem worked fine when i flashed the first build. When i updated to the newer build it dropped.

[Epic 4G Android Development] danielseeksGod:
ok i think the haptic feedback setting in the cyanogen settings is supposed to make the softkeys (the capacitive buttons: menu, home, back, search) have haptic feedback? but it doesn't work? also, the selection noise tick sound thingy goes off when i press softkeys. but no matter what i do, i can't get the softkeys to go off.

also the keyboard seems to miss keys here and there. don't know what the cause for that is

also about the capacitive keys, they don't stay lit while the screen is on (which was an option previously). could you add in an option for that, or make it default?

that's all i got for now!

[Epic 4G Android Development] ugothakd:
Not true...Voodoo control plus can be loaded with a kernel module. But that doesn't work for this for some reason. On gingerbread (ef02, eg22, eh17) you can still have voodoo sound
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
Looking forward to every single new release. Great work.

The poster did not say voodoo controls plus, he only said voodoo.... ;-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Gorguts:
I swear I am not crazy...

So this ROM was loaded and working for a day or so. Friday early evening I hear a sound similar to feedback in my basement. I ran all around my house and could not locate the noise. Saturday I hear it again and ignore it until saturday night when I hear it on the 3rd floor in my bedroom. My wife decided it was my phone and that made sense so I turned it off till the morning. today I hear it while sending a text and it was fluctuating with my swype entries and as I moved the phone around the room. So the best I can tell my mic was feeding back with something but there is nothing in my bedroom to feedback with.

I wiped and re installed and the issue returned. I flashed to eb13, did the update wiped and flashed again and it still hapend. i then eb13n'd, updated to ec05 and have been running stock ever since with no feeedback....WTF!
[Epic 4G Android Development] AproSamurai:
You did wayyyyyyyyy too much.:/ The feedback is just due to the mic turning on and staying on at a high level. It's a small bug, compared to what could be happening. Throughout the thread there are methods for quick fixes and anything else.

Sent from my Epic 4G
[Epic 4G Android Development] ugothakd:
Uh. Yeah. Mic is always on, so it feedbacks to the speaker.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Gorguts:
Soooo, wonder what hapend in my bedroom...nothing in there to feedback with; crazy.
[Epic 4G Android Development] drunix:
Admittedly I'm not an android tweaking expert, but I know linux fairly well.

Sound input on a particular channel should not have to passthrough to an output channel in order to be used in an application. For an example of this, if you have a headset for your computer, you'll notice that you have a recording input for your microphone which has a volume on it (and sometimes a boost) and if you switch over to playback controls, you'll notice there's also a microphone input there. This playback is a bypass that routes directly from the input to the output... no software involved, usually. This can be muted without affecting the sound input from the microphone being used in applications.

I do not know how to get at this with android, but /proc/asound should provide the correct interface through the "control" device... but I'm not sure how to build a copy of "alsamixer" or the like to actually interact with that, and I don't know the low level protocol to build something to talk to it. But in theory, if this same issue were happening on a linux machine, you'd just spin up alsamixer, switch to playback and mute the mic and you're golden.

Anyone with more android experience than me that might be able to compile alsamixer to run on a term or know how to get at those controls directly (or that can correct my understanding of how this works on android)?

Thanks!

Edit:

Example of playback mic field: http://members.chello.hu/balla.gyor...icles/20081230/alsamixer-xubuntu-terminal.gif

If the user were to go over to that field and hit "M" in alsamixer, in theory it would mute his playback passthrough of his mic, but it would *not* mute his microphone input... it could still be used in voice chat programs, etc.

Edit2:

Gorgutz: you're misunderstanding. The feedback people are talking about is when a noise is "heard" by the microphone on your phone and played through the speaker loud enough that the sound through the speaker is "heard" again by the microphone, but louder than the original sound, and slightly delayed. This results in a high pitched loud squeal, and is referred to as a feedback loop.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Wizard Knight:
If the mic picks up the smallest sounds, it sends it out the speaker, back to the mic and voila... Feedback
[Epic 4G Android Development] Phasma343:
Deff no fix for the mms in this last build. Want the logcat?

Well when I read tha GPS was working I flashed this and all I can say is WOW... awesome work. Except for wifi issues this ROM is flat out awesome. I finally understand everyone *****in that they want cm7. Great work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Decad3nce:
I don't need it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] drunix:
I seem to not be having the feedback issue anymore after having installed "MixGet" from market, and applying it's update.zip (and screwing with the settings, though I Didn't change anything that should have directly impacted it). It's supposed to be an alsa mixer, so I was hoping to mute the mic, but it didn't have that option..

It's entirely possible that the update zip changed something else that set the default to not playing mic through...

Can someone else walk me through the steps to reproduce it to make sure I haven't had any problems (or independently verify it if you want, but I'm not really advocating installing the program, it could break other things i'm not aware of).

I did place an outgoing call and talk to someone and received an incoming call, then tried to reproduce the feedback, and still was not able to... anything else I should try before I consider it fixed for me?

Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
You mean your phone doesn't have a speaker immediately beneath your mic like the rest of our phones? Weird...

I'm not complaining, I just want to know if that's what it's referring to.

After reading all the posts, I decided to hold off on trying last night's release. I use wifi all the time at home, so I didn't want to chance losing it.

I, like most everyone else actively posting here, had the well known feedback issue. As some else posted a couple pages ago, different fixes have worked for different people. For me, flashing the EC05 modem did the trick - voila, no feedback. My wifi is still a little wonky, but not as bad as with the EH17 modem.

Overall, I really like this ROM! My battery life is pretty great compared to my old ROM - SRF 1.2.

Thanks again to Deca & everyone else involved in bringing this ROM to the Epic. I look forward to future releases (hopefully tonight)!

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to be random. Flashing from the EH17 to the EC05 modem fixed my feedback issue.

me too, but I rebooted the phone and when it came back, the whistle came back with it. plugging headphones in and out will fix it, but only until the mic is activated again, like on a call, then it comes back
