wimax for the epic too???

[Epic 4G Android Development] JBakey:
If you look at the date, it's from january. Old news. Plus that's for the evo anyway. I highly doubt we'll ever see that for the epic. The evo has MANY devs on the level of deca. We basically have a couple man team working on this.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ceelos09:
Yeah, the only way to get WiMax working is to reverse engineer it...I dnt think we have the necessary man power to do so :( WiMax should be, and is, a last priority tho...we dnt really need it. As long as we get everything else fully functional I'll be one happy clam :)

Unlike some of you I depend on th 4g during my work week. I love this rom and the responsiveness of the phone. I have stable wifi and excellent 3g signal. Don't mind the mic feedback issue as it hasn't happened but twice. Made a good back up and will play with cm7 on the weekends and keep tinkering. The gps on this is insane in my year of having this phone, regardless of what rom this is the best gps signal I have ever had. Great Work Deca!

Flashed 10/15. had to flash Gapps again and flash the 10-11 Kernal to get wifi working again
[Epic 4G Android Development] jbadboy2007:
You do realize that a rom has absolutely nothing to do with gps. Its the modem that is making it faster
[Epic 4G Android Development] JBakey:
That speaks for itself. It's never been this good in the year that I've owned this phone
[Epic 4G Android Development] Decad3nce:
Eh, wrong. The hardware, truly, can't be change and has an upper limit of how good its performance can be.

Though, if the stack on the hardware is ****, it'll be ****. It's not **** in this CM7 build.
[Epic 4G Android Development] AproSamurai:
It's utilizing what's already there. The Rom just uses the gps better, Samsung isn't properly allowing it to be used. It's like people who claim the modem fixes software problems the relation isnt always as clear as that, many things do not interact properly on Samsung Roms because of all the **** running on it at once. Functionality is and has always been there, but it's the modem and the cleaner rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Decad3nce:
Lol can't blame samsung either. EH17 is just a hackjob leak. The daemon in the cm7 build is kanged from fascinate.
[Epic 4G Android Development] justlovejoy:
Alright well I found that no matter what I did after uninstalling the phone.apk that the sound of feedback was non existant but neither was there any signal for data or sms to come or go. When reinstalled and rebooted, the feedback sound didn't return until I hit the volume rocker. Now not even having the squeeling while typing I've noticed the battery has shrunk 3% so if its the mic that's draining the battery, I sense there's also another culprit...

GPS is fanfuckingtastic on this rom. Used it on a 2 hour trip the other day and it didn't drop signal once.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
Incorrect,then every eh17 rom out there would have theses results and modems are not attached to roms just share numerical names. I could flash any modem on this rom and get almost identical results. In fact I was on an eg22 modem when I ran this rom on Friday and Saturday.
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
You're seeing results that are polar opposites to what i'm seeing. If I had to guess, I would say that you either have a bad install (wipe everything and reflash to fix), or your battery is in need of replacement because it isn't holding a proper charge

[Epic 4G Android Development] counterfeit187:
Did a bump charge/battery calibration and when my phone finally died I booted it up and it told me battery had lasted 20 hours. I'm not sure if it counts the time that the phone is powered off, it died in my pocket without me knowing, but if it does my phone still lasted about 18-19 hours off the charger. WOOT! and something makes me think that this is going to improve as they iron out more bugs with this rom. I'm using the 10/15 rom, after wiping cache (no data wipe) and dalvik i flashed it right over the 10/11 and re-flashed gapps.

Stock email works for me, it's an Exchange account for the university I'm at, I havent tried pop or imap accounts. Remember even if you have gapps previously installed if you reflash a rom or flash an update then you need to flash gapps again. there is a flashable stock email app in 2nd post of the AOSP 4 rom thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17842246&postcount=2, but that may or may not work.

[Epic 4G Android Development] gophergun:
I don't think those menu options work, though.

I flashed the 10/11 kernel, and it didn't seem to help my WiFi issues. I just turned it off -3G may be slow, but it's unlimited and stable.

All in all, great ROM so far. It's got a little ways to go, but almost all of the major bugs are gone.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Wizard Knight:
I never had any reboots on this. try flashing the EC05 modem, it's possible the EH17 modem is causing the reboots but I don't know
[Epic 4G Android Development] youngnick09:

[Epic 4G Android Development] sauron0101:
How much potential do you see in the Epic's hardware then?

On paper at least, I think it has as much potential as the other Galaxy S phones and is pretty much on par, if not superior to all the phones released in 2010.

It seems to me that despite newer phones constantly coming out, the Epic has the power to serve anyone who keeps it, and serve well, for at least the next 1-2 years. Inevitably though it will begin to show its age. For example the HTC Hero is starting to show its age and I think that no amount of modding will change that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] justlovejoy:
Well considering I have an extended battery I am going to fkn guess you are right and try that. I did do a test of another rom before flashing this, just cause I was curious as to what this other rom was I had on the sdcard. But I will atempt this now and see what happens. Thanks, I can deal without the wifi for a few days but my music at the job ain't suttin I can live without. That's what the extended battery was for from jump!

This is an incredible rom if people would read they would realize what to do, and what to set up.

alright man, i can't believe nobody helped u out yet. u need to restore the nandroid backup u did before flashing the kernel. if u were lacking foresight in your haste to flash, and u neglected that most important practice, consider this one of those lessons. try reflashing the rom without a data wipe and if that doesn't work, try a data wipe then a rom reflash. good luck! and remember to NANDROID!!!!!!!!!!!!

@ shaolinmaster: u were probably ext4 with your last rom and need to flash the ext42rfs zip in the op before this will work, no matter how many times u wipe

[Epic 4G Android Development] XtaC318:
Not sure if you guys are aware of this, but to 'attempt' to help pinpoint the 'open mic' issue it seems to open up after a notification is played or ringtone.

I've found a simple workaround to turn it back off, and that's to have a phone call connect, then end it immediately.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
Did you flash the ext4torfs zip before flashing the rom. Most people are coming from an ext4 partition set up, this rom wont work on that file system. So almost everyone has to flash back to RFS first. Then flash the 10-15 rom zip then flash the kernel zip found on page 71. Boot up then shut down and flash the gapps zip. Then all should be perfect except no 4g and some minor things, like I can receive mms but can not send them, the ringer on phone wont work for me but I'm not having any other issue. The first thing is you must have all 4 zip files on your SD card before beginning.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
Did you flash the 10-11 kernel over the 10-15 build? If you didn't you need to go do that. That should remedy wifi.

i flashed the first version and the 10/15 update (w/kernel update) and my Cyanogenmod Settings keeps FC'ing.

any ideas? it seems some other people have been having the same issue, everything else is working excellently.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DCRocks:
So I ran through the thread, and just wanted to do a quick double check before I installed this tonight

Seems everything is working except:

WiFi - need to run patch / update

Mic/Speaker issue- no fix, but multiple workarounds

Tips gathered:

Recommend the EH17 modem

Do the typical 3x wipes

So I figure I will ODIN to EH17 to make sure I get a complete wipe and return to RFS

Then flash this ROM, flash patch for WiFI, and I should be good to go

Couple basic questions:

No need to flash a journal on, as the file system is RFS, correct?

ROM should be complete, except for WiFi patch, or is the kernel update (10/11) the WiFi patch I see mentioned to fix the 10/15 kernel issue?

Then there is the big issue of making this Cyanogenmod compliant.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rocket321:
My experiences in the 24 hours I've been running the 10/15 rom:

(using included kernel (10/15) and EC05 modem)

Wi-fi: works even though I did not flash the older kernel. After boot-up I went to wi-fi settings and set a static IP as was suggested earlier in the thread. It did get stuck "scanning" at first but after I toggled it off and back on it connected. I have noticed it will drop and re-connect once in a while even with a very good signal.

Mic: have not experienced the mic squeal yet

Reboot recovery (from clockwork or acs app): puts phone into boot loop. Probably not coded into the kernel. If you find yourself here, you can get out by holding the 3 cwm buttons. Or pull the battery of course.

Video playback: not accelerated for the videos I tested which were all x264 mp4's. They do play but are dropping frames. OP mentions this so it was expected.

Browser: Loads fast (on wifi) and doesn't checkerboard, but also not as smooth when scrolling as the samsung browser which uses a gpu accelerated backing store.

Notification LED: I don't think its working

E-mail app: works fine with my imap account, not sure what everyone is complaining about.

Opinions:

Speed is amazing. Apps from the market install much faster. When downloading apps and doing other stuff the phone doesn't studder. Transition animations remain fluid even with multiple things going on.

Themes are amazing. Love to change so much with a single click.

CM settings give great customization options.

I will definitely be running this a lot. I love the stock android/CM experience, everything just works so well from a software standpoint. This is close enough to be a daily driver for a lot of people from what I've seen so far. Very excited for the future of our phone's especially when source GB finally gets released.

Edit - I did not expect the front facing camera to work...lol but it does :)

Still testing/playing. As mentioned in a future post I flashed the stock 2.3 launcher, have been playing with themes, and also installed the Microbes LWP. Lots of fun.

Ok, my "whistling/feedback" workaround of flashing the EC05 modem only worked for a couple of days. It's back now. :mad: I know it's nothing we can officially "fix" yet, so I'm just venting.

I'm really lovin' everything else about this ROM, but the lack of a notification LED, the wonky wifi, and the whistling issue were enough to make me temporarily switch. The whistling drives my wife nuts. :p The old saying applies here - "if mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy!"

I'll be waiting - somewhat impatiently - for the next update! :cool:

[Epic 4G Android Development] Mutiny32:
I appreciate all the most excellent work put into getting this working on the Epic 4G, decad3nce and team.

BUT (there's always a but) I have one request and it is just a matter of semantics. I do not consider a ROM "complete" until it can at least match the functionality of the original vendor ROM.

While this ROM is indeed nearly complete, the lack of working WiMax functionality makes calling the ROM complete deceptive to more novice users. We already have enough indignant veteran users who scare off a lot of new users when they attempt to discuss something that has already been discussed. Point in case, the microphone feedback issue.

I simply and humbly request that when you "complete" the ROM, please, do not label it as such until it is feature-complete with the vendor ROM. At the very least mark it complete with a VERY clear caveat stating that there is no WiMax functionality. It all save us all a lot of grief when a newer user flashes CM7.1 on the Epic, as they will already be privy to the fact that the ROM is incomplete or complete minus WiMax.

I know you can be a callous bastard regarding user ignorance and support, so save yourself the frustration from complaints before they even have the chance to be ignorant.
