Ok. I tried ##GPSCLRX#, but it just sits on a black screen after choosing to reset GPS. Rebooted hoping that something happened.....but no go. GPS will not lock any closer than 20 meters.

You were a god on my EVO3d.

I was sad when I switched to this device and knew I was going to have to wait for some equal quality ROM to come by.

A month later I look around and there you are! With a rom to boot! (bad pun, sorry!)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mynaga:
viper said he would be putting it back as he was unaware of the utility when he removed it

Sent from my E4GT!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 4redstars:
Amazing Rom with v2 (though v1 was good as well)!

So glad you got this device. Thanks Viper!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ahl395:
Cant wait for v3 :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -viperboy-:
Went out to see Paranormal Activity 3 last night and just got back home from staying over at the girls house. So here we go...

Sorry, this will be one of the few things that I include in my ROM stock. I like it and I will improve the graphic for the next release and I think everyone will like it better. In my ROMs, the "viperROM" graphic in the bottom of the pulldown is my little signature, so to speak. I know the way it looks now is a little bit off, but I will improve it. Orionstein made it for me and I wanted to put it in the ROM since he spent the time to do it, I will just improve upon it a little :)

Thanks man, that sums up how I feel about alot of things. Hit me up if you need help :)

:)

No problem buddy, and it's only going to get better. The next revision will have more tweaks in it, I haven't done too much right now.

Yes, I will. I removed some sound from /system/media that I thought would have remove it, but I guess just like the E3D, the sound file is in the .apk itself - I haven't looked yet. But yes, I will have that for the next release.

It's a "feature", AKA it's Sprint's way of telling you to reboot your damn phone!

Thanks man, and yes, the request page is here:

http://code.google.com/p/viperrom/issues/list

When filling out an issue or request, please scroll down to where it says "Labels" and choose "Phone-E4GT" so it's easy for me to know what phone the issue was filed for.

Use Auto Wifi Toggle, I can't live without that. I set it to 3 mins and after 3 mins away from wifi, it shuts it off.

Thanks :)

LOL, I almost have too many characters in my sig as it is. I need to rework it a little bit lol

I multi-quoted the wrong post, but about the issue with vC not running right when it's not root... I've added a check into the next update of vC that if you aren't root, it will kick you out. There is a way to make the script run as root (su -c vc) that I tried to put in the script and it worked, but after you tried to exit the script by pressing enter at the main menu, it then ran the script as not root which could mess people up again. So, for now, this will have to do :)

You guys don't all happen to be inside when testing GPS, are you? I hope you all know that GPS doesn't work as well inside :p

LOL, it was a funny pun. I'm glad I'm here now to take care of your ROM addiction :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] makmoneynslp:
appreciate the work man......im getting one issue where i use oc daemon to oc to 1400000 and i get an random reboot i figure it would atleast let me get an stable 1.4ghz instead 1.6ghz which ive heard is possible....but everytime i try it i get random reboots,

should i change the scheduler?

should i change the governer?

should i change the voltage to default?

thnks in advance
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -viperboy-:
Anyone who hates the font as well as battery percent, CRT, viperROM logo, and 1x in status bar can download the mods to fix them in the 3rd post.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bnyirady:
Loving your Rom Viper!

And the Go Launcher is my new favorite launcher! After switching from HTC, and their amazing widgets, the Go Widgets have made me forget all about them! Thanks Viper for this snappy, cool looking rom!

Also, I wouldn't mind your VIPER tag on the pulldown menu, if it JUST SAID VIPERROM in the dark grey coloring that VIPER is already in... it's just the RED ROM that is a bit annoying. Just a thought.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -viperboy-:
Before setting the speed, up the voltage by like 50mv using the viperMOD setting in vC, (I would raise 1600mhz by 50mv too), save changes, then try to change the speed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] relfrthadale:
Hey.viper is their anyway u can add the browser mod.

So we can change the user agent setting
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] makmoneynslp:
Ok so i changed it from 1450mv to 1500 and it stop right in the middle of my benchmark another sign of it not being stable im going to try raise my my min to 1400 and max and put it on performance and see what happens
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 12MaNy:
$%&#!!! I used up all my thanks today. You're the man viperboy.

With JobManager.apk removed. holding home and selecting task manager causes a hot reboot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jlear3:
Sorry if it's been covered but on my phone... I try to install tw from the viperRom folder and it says application not installed?? I have from unknown sources checked
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lballer69:
Must b pushed thru system/app thru a file manager that has root permissions or adb
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] odub303:
Already discussed at length. Push the apk from the removed apps folder to system/app
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -viperboy-:
Only if you post this in the viperROM Google Code page :D also, I'm very anxious to see who will be the first to actually post an issue with the right label for this phone since no one has yet haha

It's fine man, no problem. And on the note of "Thanks", you may notice that I never thank anyone by hitting the button. The reason why is I hate the XDA 2010 theme so I still use the old post-it note yellow colored version that doesn't have the thanks button lol so if anyone was wondering, that's why.

Yes, I know. Use viperControl to restore JobManager.apk - option 3, option 1, type the .apk name, done :)

Right, you can't just tap on it and install it the way you normally would because it's a system app. It has to be pushed, so use viperControl to do that. Option 3, Option 2 to quick install all of TouchWiz back.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] expertzero1:
I would report on the page but there isnt a label for some reason. Im signed into google.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chunology:
When you go to submit an issue there is no drop-down menu for TYPE only TEMPLATE :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pestilencec11:
Viper,

First off.. love the rom! I am on v2 with the built in kernel you included.. I know it can OC.

I think I have my settings wrong for the OC daemon.. what I am trying to achieve is when phone is being used it clocks to 1600mhz, when the screen is off 200mhz, etc...

my battery is draining at idle is why i am asking for suggested settings. Like I said I am sure I put them backwards or just incorrectly.. I know how the phone should act that those same settings. I use on demand daily.. If you have suggestions that are to long you can just PM if that is easier..

Thanks for your hard work!

Jason

Tried to flash the stock framework zip, but got this...

E:Error in /emmc/viperROM_E4GT_stock_framework.zip
(Status 6)
Installation aborted

Is that an updater-script error?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gerald410:
I'm getting that error as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yisroelg1:
Downloaded v2 twice, md5 doesn't match
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Loki047:
Everyone with GPS issues here is how i got mine fixed.

Download gps test and ran that for 5 to 10 minutes. now gps works

Does this work for anyone else?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dschachm:
So far 9 hours and still at 50 percent. I think this is the best I have had on this phone. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Anastasios912:
Really like the Rom Viperboy! One issue I've been having, if I turn 4G on (then use it for a while), then off, 3G won't reconnect. If I turn airplane mode on, then off, reception won't come back and I have to reboot (essentially it causes the "LOS" error, the circle of doom)

This doesn't happen all the time, but I've had to reboot a couple times already. I might re-flash the kernal and see if that fixes it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 12MaNy:
Got it to work by extracting SystemUI.apk, framework-res.apk & twframework-res.apk and pushing them to the phone manually. Be very careful doing this. DO NOT delete the existing apks before you push the new ones. You have to overwrite. Hope this helps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mynaga:
Thats not a rom issue, its a sprint problem giving us jacked up phones... its a known problem for stock and rooted phones, nothing you can do about it but deal with it or get the "LoSt Kernel" which is about the best fix currently out right now for the problem
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nivron:
1X/3G Modded

All,

I have done a quick SystemUI.apk to fix the 3G/1X icon problem on v.1. Works fine for me, if anyone wants to use it.

Thanks -viperboy- for the ROM!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -viperboy-:
Oops, from porting viperControl over from the 3D I have to fix the governor stuff. Please don't use vC right now to change governors. I will fix this tonight when i get home.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -viperboy-:
Thanks! Can I put this in the ROM?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xPSYB0RGx:
Damn it, I just got mines last night :)

Now that you are here, you just made selecting my first rom much more difficult. Thanks for dropping in and blessing us.

Quick question tho....... Whats the max OC? 1.6? 1.8? etc?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -viperboy-:
No problem :) and vC would tell you this info ;) but 1600mhz.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
your in good hands.. chris41g's lost kernel, which this rom has.. fixed my LOS issues
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tiffany84:
Sorry for all the questions but if I wanted to oc would it be ok to use set cpu until vC is fixed? Thanks again viper.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nivron:
Of course!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] makmoneynslp:
Im going to try this rom out now......updates soon
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mrpickem:
Just loaded a few minutes ago, testing mow...seems pretty fast. Here's some screens if you wanna use them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -viperboy-:
Great thanks again!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xPSYB0RGx:
Damn it (again). I just was thinking to myself, he just got his phone, and already compiled a rom, so I was on my way back to tell you thanks for the "quickness", only to find out, that you've already replied to my post I was about to edit.

For the record, im going to rock yours (first). Also, dont know what "vc" is as I've been out the game for a minute, and im trying to refrain from asking help (which are my usual posts :) )

Now on to my hunt for VC.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DutchDogg54:
Hey Viper - definitely checking this ROM out later tonight when I get some time...one question - any plans on built in theming? Just curious, also curious about whether existing ones will work with it but I did see your comment about not know earlier on, and I'll just nandroid and check 'em out for myself. Thanks for your work!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] turbosr123:
I was wondering if Wifi tethering is included in this rom... That's my main issue right now using other roms and trying to get the wifi tether to work with my PS3.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Do we have to download wireless tether from market or the stock sprint hotspot is hack already?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Success100:
holy ****! really viper???

damn dude you just turned the phone on and you have a rom already??? hahahaha and great stuff, we needed the OC/UC daemon on this baby. Will be testing later!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] woodyth:
flashed rom as usual. keep just booting to blue clockwork
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -viperboy-:
Lol i don't mind helping, never be afraid tl ask. I'm pretty active in all of my dev threads! vC is shorthand for viperControl. Check the second post :)

I do plan to do that but it's not a high priority right now. I was fortunate enough to have someone (Vinchenzop) helping me on my 3D and I wish be had this phone now. He is great, love working with him. But most themes out there should work with this ROM.

It's included but as an extra on /sdcard/viperROM/apps because for some reason Terminal Emulator and WiFi Tether would FC if preinstalled but don't if you install them regularly. I'm looking into that. But it should work, I haven't tried it. You may need to mess with the settings in that all a little though.

See above post. And it's on external SD BTW.

didn't even activate it yet lol spent alot of time on it yesterday and this morning. The daemon is already there, but i gotta fix the governors. Doesn't work when you change them at the moment. That was from it being ported from the 3D, sorry about that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] turbosr123:
Totally agree with you 100%... Just appreciate the rom and if you are unhappy then go to another rom. I'm still on version 1.1 waiting to flash v2 now... Rom is amazing and everything works great!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 12MaNy:
Please don't revive old drama posts. It just mucks up the atmosphere.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -viperboy-:
Damn it, I didn't realize you guys can't edit the labels lol I will work on this later. Thanks!

The way I have it setup stock is pretty good, but in viperControl MIN Sleep is the lowest frequency the phone will scale to with the screen off and MAX Sleep is the highest frequency the phone will scale to with the screen off.

MIN and MAX Awake are the same way, just for screen on. So the stock settings are 200min/500max with screen off and 200min/1200max with screen on, both using the conservative governor. That's what I run as well.

Yes, I will look at that when I get home. Sorry about that. Does the first .zip work?

Uhh, you could try flashing it anyway. The md5 on dev-host could be wrong, that has happened before. But I can't check until I get home.

Anyone else?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 12MaNy:
One thing about pushing the framework manually is it will wipe your gmail accounts from your device. Just found this out the hard way. Lol

The font? Nah.... I just tried flashing the stock framework zip. I got it handled though. Just pushed the framework apks and systemUI apk manually to my phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Loki047:
There were more people having the issue. just seeing if anyone elses worked...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mynaga:
Zedomax youtube viper vid

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WD1d87-M2I&feature=related

Zedo gave you a video but was having some technical difficulties of his own, imo you should ask him to remake your rom video so you can get some better followers/ supporters
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] air2k57:
This is not so much an issue with the rom, but rather curiosity. How come stock non rooted epics seem to be snappier when opening apps and coming out of wake, like after you press the power key it literally takes maybe 3 secs where stock is instant.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] exconvictriddick:
I totally love ur rom and quickly address some issue, which I'm very greatful for that.. thanks viper.

For the rest of the people, god damn follow instruction on how to flash viper rom. Do a system wipe is the most important if not critical. Seriously, if you can't follow that simple instruction then you shouldn't use this rom at all.

To viper, can you include crt on and off animation on ur next big update? I have my phone setup perfectly with baberly lost signal and awesome battery life with ur script. Sleep 200min 500max demand (why i set 500 and demand because theres a delay when people call me in sleep mode. At 200max, it take 10s from the caller to ring on my phone. At 500max, takes 5 sec) Wake 200min 800max conservative. At 800, everything is buttery smooth even with non intentive CPU and GPU games like words with friends.

Another suggestion is to use bootanimation instead of renaming sanim.zip for boot animation. Although sanim.zip works, the sound doesn't work.

When is your big update?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mynaga:
When screen is off he has the cpu underclock itself as a battery saving technique, sorry for all the edits in this post im exhausted. i may have even gotten what i just said wrong.. oh well
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Storm T:
lol

Wait, you're *****ing at people for not reading and you haven't read or figured out that crt is in this rom? lol :rolleyes:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rdcrds:
OK I first off am just reporting what has been going with my phone on this rom. I have not had the circle Los in a long long time I have had the ghost ones where you can't tell you have Los until you try and use your phone but now again today on this rom I have had the circle Los. Any reason for this? Anyone flashing a different kernel?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mynaga:
God hates everyone that doesn't read back a few pages imo, but to save op some trouble. Sprint is having this issue, its not specific towards rooted or unrooted phones, its not the rom causing this. Best fix and action against this is the LoSt Kernel that comes with the rom, and restarting when that doesnt work.

call sprint and complain, maybe we can all get a correct fix if we gripe at them enough
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rdcrds:
Ive had the phone since day 1 i know the reasons why and that is what i said the Los kernel was really like all the others a good kernel but not a LOS kernel since it really does not help the LOS issue.

I have had about the same LOS on every kernel all about the same.Some people say less on different ones but in the end they all as far as LOS goes are the same.

But the only reason i said anything was i finally after being on the starbust Rom's got a LOS with a circle.On the other Rom's all the LOS were the ghost type where you never knew you had it unless you tried to use your phone.

But trust me sprint knows already about it and from me as well.Some will tell you it is listed and some will say no but i have been told by some good reps it is listed as a issue.

I just wondered why i all of a sudden after weeks got the circle one.Not a big deal was just passing info along.

I have no issue's with the rom other then FC'S that the OP knows about and i know the LOS is not a viper issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mynaga:
My mistake just sounded like you were a lost child :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -viperboy-:
I had a small lag with the stock ROM, but I don't notice more lag with my ROM. You can try setting the governor to ondemand and see if that helps. That governor is a little quicker to make the phone scale up.

That shouldn't cause the sound not to work, it made the bootup noise on v.1 when I had the animation named that. I removed the sound in v.2 so it shouldn't be making noise out of the box now. And CRT is included in latest ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -viperboy-:
Question for you guys... what do you guys think about this app?

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.jrummy.liberty.toolbox&hl=en

I got an email on it from JRummy and he welcomed devs to put it in their ROM. Lots of cool features and such, my only concern is that it has the ability to mess with the clock speed and that would affect the daemon. But what do you guys think of this?

EDIT: Oh, anyone else having issue flashing the 2 mods in the 3rd post? Can someone try and if it fails, run this command via adb in recovery:

cat /tmp/recovery.log > /sdcard/log.txt

OR, depending on how this CWM is setup, you might get an error. If so, it might be:

cat /cache/recovery.log > /sdcard/log.txt

You will need a memory card for this. Please post the log when you have it, thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] senji75:
just have to say viper, love the rom totally! I don't know personally if I would use that particular toolkit he has in the market.

Also, I use SPB Shell 3D as my UI and it works nicely with your rom, just in case you wanted to know ;)

Edit: if anything viper, I was trying to use the UOT Kitchen to install the icon set G4 (G4 blue sense 3D) with SBC Battery with % # (Version M, White numbers) and only thing I get after the patch is the battery... not the icon set... not sure what I am doing wrong, never had a problem with my HTC's or my Moto's. Any ideas?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mynaga:
Keep it clean IMO, if people want this they can snatch it from the market

Sent from my E4GT!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -viperboy-:
Thanks for the feedback! And I don't use the kitchen too much, but did you upload twframework-res.apk as well? That may be the issue, not sure. Or it just might not be supported, I don't really know.

Thanks for the feedback :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] expertzero1:
cries, my sd card isnt mounting , must be fried, or the phone is wont recognize lame, anyways hah, that app looks cool, it could be in the rom, not sure, ill use it i guess haha
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lballer69:
wouldnt rom toolbox defeat the purpose of VC..............its a nice app actually would allow me too delete some apps
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 12MaNy:
Seems like alot packed into one app. I say leave it out and if people want it, they can download it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -viperboy-:
Well, vC still does some things that this doesn't but I was just wondering.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lballer69:
i think its great that u support ur fellow devs .......mentioning his app in ur thread enlightens others........o yea glad vc is here to stay
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rdcrds:
I don't see what it would hurt to have it.If people do not want it they can delete it fast but if they do want it then they have to go buy it.

Either way is fine
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -viperboy-:
Oh, vC won't be going anywhere! It's a core part of my ROM! :D

Again, thanks for more feedback. I appreciate it :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asteetva:
It it helps in updates etc
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rast4man:
Okay I've got the ROM completely configured the way I want it. My Quadrant score is just shy of 5,000. I managed to get a Honey Theme installed but I'm not 100% happy with it so I"m looking for a black/blue theme with a digital battery meter or the battery mod that looks like a speedometer. I'm using Jrummy's Root Tools for Sony Sketch Font and a few other fonts and Root Tools to double enforce ad blocking. For ads, I'm using AdFree by BigTinCan. For voltages and OC--I'm using the vc script which is included in the ROM. For scripts, I'm using the V6 Supercharger @ 1000HP and also lag nullifier along with the 3G Turbo Charger which takes care of grouping and oom memory along with making my Zeam Launcher "bulletproof" to kill.

For general testing, I use Autokiller Memory Optomizer which after using the V6 Script, I go into Autokiller and save the settings V6 sets for me as a "custom" preset and also I can kill apps that are running in the background that I don't want at the time.

So all in all--my E4GT absolutely FLIES! No lag, no hesitation and no LoS thanks to K0nane and the NO CIQ and ACS LoStKernelEXP+ Kernel. I'm hella' impressed with this ROM so much that a donation is coming viper's way.

Regards,

rast4man
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tweeker404:
Awesome :) Thanks vb.

I really hope you can get the 4g hotspot hack going. As I said, haven't heard anything from Necrosan since October 3rd, the last he actually visited the board.

Would be huge if you could get this accomplished! :)

Thanks again for all your hard work!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rast4man:
I know I could help with the 4G but I would want to have Necro's permission but even then where I live there aren't any 4G towers *yet*. Perhaps if I can get permission and the next time my girlfriend and I visit her parents down in Ft. Lauderdale I could work on it then and there.

I sent him a PM but haven't heard a response yet so if anyone knows him, please tell him to pop in this thread and check out that I'm trying to contact him out of sheer respect to help work on his project.

TIA and Regards,

rast4man

PS-I'm crashing, night all.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ahl395:
The issue is actually probably the phone's SD Card bug.

If you have an SD Card in , the wake is delayed 2-5 seconds.

Take out your SD Card, and its instant, maybe 1 second!
