My girlfriend is on Calk 2.9.2 and has been using Instagram (constantly) for the last several days. Before and after the newest update. So it doesn't seem to be a Rom specific issue. I just started to run it (to make sure that it works on 3.0), but am not interested enough to sign up for an account (lol). I just wanted to mention that it works so that you could eliminate possible causes.

Good luck.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Bad upload. I had to reupload it. It looks fine now, try it again. :)

---------- Post added at 06:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:24 PM ----------

Have you tried wiping the cache from just the Play market and also the cache and dalvik cache in recovery yet?

You're not running Calk's ICS are you? Everyone was having problems when the SD card was mounted. Go to settings/storage/Unmount SD card. Then try installing whatever it is you're having problems with. If it works, I would consider copying everything off of the SD, unmount and format it, and then try using it again. It sounds like something doesn't like the external SD card. Don't format USB storage unless you back it up first too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] driftinganomaly:
With all of the problems that you are having, you should probably redownload the zip for the rom, check the md5 (or just check the md5 on your current download) and reinstall it. It could solve a lot of your problems instead of trying to chase each one down.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Yup, could be a bad download or install.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shinedown87:
No, I am not on and have not been on ICS. Unmounting the SD card, then installing Instagram worked! Thanks!

I tried the apps that are giving me the insufficient space error and they still aren't working. Maybe I will have to wipe and reflash the ROM because I have no idea how to see the MD5?????

Edit: I just downloaded the md5 checker app and ran the ROM file. It gave me a string of characters. What do I do with that? What do I compare it with? I apologize if this is a commonly known thing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
No biggy. It's usually easier to just wipe and try again.

Edit: The MD5 for 3.0 is: md5 - 36ab61f44da3cc2366facf1784e32f6d

They are usually listed on the OP along with the download. These numbers should match if the d/l is good.

If you're still having problems with the ROM, it would help if you let us know exactly what you're doing when you flash it in case you're missing a step or something.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
When I finally got it to work with I realized that in 2.8 the indication dots disappear and sometime after that he aligned the homescreens so you don't press the dots instead of apps on the bottom of the screen. Thanks for trying but I think I'll just stick with 5x4 until Calk attaches a specific 5x5 drawer zip

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Does 2.8 have the setup you're looking for? I can zip that one instead, its easy enough to do.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
It does but he aligned the homescreens after that version and I'm kind of liking it. It's ok dude I can deal with 4x5

Has anyone tried out Beats Audio with this rom that can provide some input?

I found this thread:

The 03/02 SGS2 download works
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
Held down the power button and now it won't reboot. Tried re-flashing this rom as well as wiping the both caches. This happened before but I can't remember how I fixed it. It hangs at the bootup screen then goes black and I have to remove the battery source,
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
So you're starting from scratch it looks like.

You can boot into recovery correct?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shinedown87:
Worked for me. I'm very new to the galaxy and I didn't even know this app existed. Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
I missed it from stock and got tired of installing it manually every time I flashed a fresh rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
Yeah can get into download mode and recovery. Really hope it's not soft bricked cause if so I'm switching to ICS

Edit: Battery is less than 30% right now. If I wait until it's over 70% and reflash this rom might that fix it?

---------- Post added at 01:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:47 PM ----------

Going to post elsewhere cause this is retarded. How can rebooting my phone soft brick it. I'm so pissed right now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
You still need help with this? Do you have any other working backups or rom downloads you can use because you may have a bad download of the rom.

Edit: I still need you to post the steps you're using to flash the rom too please.

The only options I see there are how to setup a pattern lock or pin for lock screen.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
I have some working backups, and the download I'm using should work. I'd rather not use a backup ; I'm wiping cache and delvic cache then installing v3.0 like I did last night.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
You choose none and it will be the GB slide lock screen .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Ok, I'll be around, but I'll be missing for a little bit because Easter dinner is almost ready.

You should do all 3 wipes in recovery, not just cache and dalvik, the Wipe Data (factory reset) also. You can also use calk's format all from the OP: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=771828&d=1320435068 but it needs to be on your SD already of course.

To do a fresh install of the rom, do not install anything else. No kernels, no modem, no undervolt, nothing else at all.

Reboot and if it still doesn't come up, you probably have a bad download of the rom. If so, let me know and we'll go from there.

---------- Post added at 08:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:12 PM ----------

I guess mine was already set to none. Just so we're on the same page, the orange-ish lockscreen, is that the stock lock screen? It's been so long since I've seen stock. And I'm not about to flash back to stock unless I have to just to find out LOL.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
TW stock is the image that you slide off the screen. AOSP lockscreen is typically a slider. WidgetLocker is the easiest way to get AOSP-style lockscreens on a TW ROM
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mrcrptguy:
It doesn't give you the stock lock screen like in aosp, its the stock TW lockscreen.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mrcrptguy:

Wiping fixed it kind of. I used titanium backup but for some reason my app drawer and home screens are out of wack. What file in titanium backup should I restore again to get my setup back?

Sent from my Epic 4G Touch on Calc's GB ROM
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Ok thats a start. If you're using the default touchwiz launcher, I think it doesn't sort the apps correctly so they're all out of alphabetical order. You may need a third party app like 'appzorter lite' which is free from the market. It can sort out your app drawer.

The home screens you will probably need to redo. I'm sure there is some way to save the setup for touchwiz home screens, maybe an app but I'm not sure. I use Go Launcher and you can save and restore settings with it but I'm not sure how to do it with touchwiz.

Edit: I don't know if you can get home screen settings back with Titanium, but I bet if you manually backup the system app 'TwLauncher 2.3.6' you can restore the data just like any other app. But this has to be done manually since it's installed as a system app and won't backup automatically. You'll have to remember to back it up before you restore backups or wipe and reinstall the rom too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bhupinder408:
Can someone please help me...i have gps issues like no other...i have tried going to a gingerbread rom and locking my location and then coming to an ics rom but no luck...now my gps wont even work on gingerbread. I habe also tried th gps fix app but that locks for a second but doesnt after the first lock. Im so confused. Any help would be great !
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Do you mean the fasterfix app?

Also, did you do a full wipe and fresh install of the rom or just a restore of an existing backup? What are you using to check GPS and are you doing this outdoors?

Edit: I seem to recall that if you wipe the data from google maps sometimes it will resolve some issues. A lot of GPS apps depend on that to work correctly.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bhupinder408:
Yes, I mean the fasterfix and I did do a fresh install. Wiped everything. GPS will not work on ANY Rom.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SF Steven:
OK, this might be a silly question but what happens if I use this ROM with one of the newest modems (like FD05)? Is there any advantage to doing so or will it just bring various ICS problems to a non-ICS ROM (notification problems, etc.)?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ebaum1:
It should be fine, but i didnt have much luck on FD02 or FD05 as far as better reception, I just rolled back to FC24 and have my full bars again...trial and error

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] driftinganomaly:
When I cleared the RAM with the task manager earlier, it reset my keyboard. I don't do that often, so was surprised to see the keyboard reset. Have you done anything like that recently? Or do you have an app that aggressively changes settings to try to save battery or something? Hopefully it is already fixed and good luck.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
I found just removing Swype all together works best for fixing that :cool: just make a backup and uninstall via Titanium Backup! Good luck!

If you're feeling really froggy, odin to stock, make sure your SD's are backed up, call Sprint from another phone and do the factory reset with them. Check GPS while running stock.

I tried FC24 and everything seemed fine but then I realized that bluetooth no longer worked (it wouldn't even turn on) so I had to roll back to EL29.

I may try some of the other (newer than EL29, older than FC24) modems and see what happens.

I was in a restaurant with zero signal (los but not los) go outside signal came back.

I installed FC22 (from FC24) thinking that was it FC22 gave just a HAIR better signal (showed PRESENCE of signal) but still no bars.

so it appears FC22 is just a hair better in weak area's than FC24 but not enough to make a difference.

GPS and BT worked fine with either for me.

running calks 2.8 3.0 was too unstable for some reason.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JAmerican:
Calk,

Thank you for all your hard work in developing these ROMS. They've made my Epic 4G Touch experience exactly as I expected the switch from Windows Mobile to Android to be. The ability to have smooth and power-efficient ROMS is key to a functional device throughout the day. Something I noticed though when upgrading to the latest and greatest is that after 2.8.1, my battery life was not as great in the newer ROMs as it was in 2.8.1 or 2.8. So I went from 2.9.2 that I was at to 2.8.1 and noticed something remarkable...

Now, I know it is not completely off the battery and my phone was in Airplane mode (when I went to the GYM) but this is a typical day for me. I do not charge at work and I charge my phone when it's being used as the media center of my car. I'm also able to get a GPS lock inside my room (not against a window) within 15 seconds on 2.8.1.

I was not able to get this level of battery-efficiency or this short GPS lock in the 2.9.x ROMS. I am not sure what changed but I recommend you revisit your 2.8.1 builds and see if you can use it as a base moving forward. Just a suggestion from a fan of your work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
I agree with this because on 2.8.1 I was getting 4 hrs screen time with about 1 day 2hrs wake time.I get decent battery now. 2 1/2 he's screen time. With about 14hrs on
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] omgjoz:
3.0 has worked great for me, I upgraded without format_all. However the battery is not as good as with previous builds. But no "instability."
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Moebius01:
I would say overall that 2.8.1 was the best battery life I got, but 3.0 is a close enough second that I'm sticking with it for now. Still solid stable (have seem some issues with Waze, but not sure if that's rom or app), and battery life is more than enough for my purposes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crypt0kiddie:
I can't comment on the new 3.0 as I've not tried it yet but I know when I went to 2.9.x, my battery life TANKED BAD!

I see 24~26 hours easy on 2.8.1 but I was luck to get 8 to 10 on 2.9.x.

Sticking with 2.8.1 for now, see no reason to upgrade to 3.0 after reading some of the comments.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
After a few days, 3.0 really settled in, and I saw 26 hours with 3-4 hrs screen on
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Hmmmm. Maybe I will let it settle in for another day or so. Right now I;have 2 hrs off the plug. 82% remaining with 10 mins screen time :/ lol I have been on 3.0 for 2 1/2 days now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] davidzthe1:
What setting are you using for this type of battery life, or are you using SetCPU or anything? I am at a loss with the battery on 3.0 and only used 2.9.2 a few days before upgrading.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
I use SetCPU with profiles that are similar to Calk's script. I am more aggressive in CPU scaling though
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
From almost three years of flashing ROMs and watching hundreds of users experience issues when not waiting to apply themes. Not every user has issues, but many do. The specific time is irrelevant. For me it generally takes more than 4 hours to check out/test everything in the ROM. The point is that waiting in the beginning saves a ton of time troubleshooting later.

Like I said, this is my 2 cents, my experience. People can flash anyway they like. As a very experienced user I feel compelled to share what I've seen.

Umm, before you start screwing around with overclocking, undervolting and such you should make sure you backup your rom. Another thing, these cpu apps will probably have a checkbox to 'enable on boot' which means if it's checked, and your phone freezes, it won't boot anymore... Well, until you restore that backup :).

Ok, apologies for bumping an old post, but I had a question. My android knowledge as far as code/scripting/etc... is bunk. Would it be possible to create a script that could do this in batch? Granted, it only takes a few minutes, but it's kind of a pain finding the files in the long directory after copying them over, would be nice if I could just run a script that would copy and set properties/owner on all of them.
