HELP! I rooted using the EG30 Autoroot. Then installed CWM5. I then flashed Calkulin's Format All for E4GT. It seemed like everything went smoothly, but now the screen is stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy SII" screen.

I tried manually reboot and it is still stuck here. What did I do/ anyone know how to fix this?? Is there anyway to boot into CWM? When I flased the Calukins Format All I used ROM Manager
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cjwaggsrx8:
Its all good man just put your phone into download mode volume down and power.. Then odin a kernel with cwm recovery then flash a rom.. Good as new.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
Pull the battery, then back in. Hold vol up and power until recovery shows up (if you have a nandroid) or vol down and power for download mode.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] callen10:
Thanks. Any idea as to why that happened?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
I'm going to go with the obvious here. Nowhere in the process did you mention flashing the actual ROM. Assuming you did that after flashing format_all, it should have worked. Could be a bad download.

Having some weird issues installing apps on this ROM... I have 290mb free in internal phone memory but when I try to install the remaining apps from Titanium it just hangs, and when I try to install free apps from the market to replace the missing apps, I get an error on install that internal memory is full... if I clear cache and fix permissions does not fix the problem... anything else I should be trying?

Thanks in advance... coming from Starburst so still learning some of the nuances of this ROM... really want to like it but this problem reinstalling apps is really annoying...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mr Ian B:
I am having the same problem. Did a nandroid backup, wipe cache/dalvik/data and then flashed this rom and now the phone is stuck in the Galaxy SII screen. Tried going to cwm but I am getting errors that won't let me restore back up or flash anything.

Any suggestions??

Thanks,

Reflash a kernel that has CWM (such as stock pulled w/ cwm by Chris41g) then flash the ROM again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
I replied to your email...if you can get into download mode...you're fine...or CWM.

Anyone have an idea how to resolve cache issue I'm having?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
I had the exact same problem the first flash. Only thing that fixed it was reflashing entirely from scratch with thorough wiping.

Also you may want to download the ROM again just for good measure.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire808:
I'll give this a go before I try flashing the stock pulled kernel. I really don't want to break the tweaks Sir Calkin included in this rom. Mahalo brah.

Help! Wifi tether doesnt work! Any ideas? This is the error I keep getting

Tried all of those wireless tether apks....none work!? I wish the native sprint hotspot worked. Any other suggestions.. This is very frustrating, coming from evo and never had this problem. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mpcdata:
The Sprint Hotspot does work, just not on 4g.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
You're not getting Sprint hotspot either? I would start fresh. They both should work out of the gate.

I have a question. My battery gets to 4200mV around 80% which means its fully charged.it continues to slowly climb to 100% after that even though it hit a full charge long before it says 100%. I tried battery calibrator but it doesn't seem to help. what should I do?

Flashed stock kernel Friday night and didn't have a LOS all weekend. This was quite a bit different that with packaged kernel. I was getting 3-4 per day.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
Try this, not saying it will work for you but honestly dont know why wifi tether does not work out the box for you since its works for quite a few others. Just_s had a great suggestion, I would actually nandroid my setup, flash the rom fresh and only try that before I kept saying it dont work. Honestly if it did not work every comment after the LoS comments would be about tethering not working.

great option for you to check out as well Just_s is correct

This has been my experience as well...I am also running Steady Hawkins new kernel because that recovery cant be beat and I have no issues at all. Rom is running as expected...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smcf81:
Where can I go to see how many volts I am running on? I want to try 50
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
If I am not mistaken were you not already helped on this. If you are running the rom out the box and you are running 1.1 then as noted in OP you are already running it at your desired level

MODs included:

Tweaked system(Very FAST)

Kernel is undervolted by 50mV(Check the FAQ for different voltages)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asqwrd:
Im not sure if this is the rom or sprint issue but are people having problems with data completly dropping out. Im not refering to LOS its just that at certain places i get no 3g data. Wimax works fine and i can still make calls and send texts but 3g is gone the icon disappears but i still shows the signal strength. This has a never happened before and rebooting doesnt seem to bring the data back only when i leave that location and I guess the phone connects to a different tower do I get 3g back. I live in san jose for anyone who lives in that area its downtown driving on first up to about brokaw

How is everyones batterylife on this rom?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
I'm getting ridiculous bat life...in a good way. I did run the ROM for a couple of days and a couple of bat cycles. Been getting 14,18hrs average, not bad considering i'm always playing with this awesome phone.

Modified...with AWESOMENESS...Task650's Magic
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] azr6:
If I'm not mistaken, I think I read that people were having issues with gmail syncing on this rom. Is there a fix for that?

Battery life for me has got better and better from my initial install.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Thank you guys for sharing. Will definately flash this sometime today. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shiftr182:
If your kernel allows undervolting, you can use setcpu. It will tell you what you are running currently, and allow you to set the undervolt.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JoeBruin32:
Best battery life I've had on any ROM, by leaps and bounds. My previous best was 14 hours, 2 hours screen time on starburst. On this I'm getting 24 hours with 2 hours screen time. There are others getting 24 hours with 4 hours screen time... whatever, for ME, 24/2 is an improvement.

Haven't had an issue with gmail syncing. Didn't think there was a widespread problem in this thread either.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
Here are some shots of my first charge cycle on this ROM. I was calibrating the battery so I wanted to drain it, and I had to really push it during the final 35% running at 800mhz. Didn't notice any slow downs either, other than a little bit of redraw lag on the Go Launcher home screen.

Brightness was set to Auto, and use included about an hour of audiobook streaming and a half hour of Google Music via 3G. WIFI, GPS and Bluetooth was on the entire time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
I haven't seen anything mentioned regarding gmail issues/bug. If you are having issues, easiest fix is to clear data in applications.

Settings > Applications > Manage applications > All > Gmail > clear data

The Honeymoon is over...

Wow, Awesome Rom Calkulin! But...

Ive had my phone since Sept 24th, and NEVER had LOS, until today. I flashed Calkulin's ROM 3 days ago, with minimal issues. Awesome rom, very quick, easy to flash, etc, etc... Im now one of the legion of SGSII owners experiencing random LOS issues. First, my phone went Los about 2 hours ago close to the main tower in my city. After reboot and regaining signal, no data connection. Ugh. Reboot again, both are back and working for now... Seriously guys and gals, I know all phones have their bugs, but Im about to hang it up with Sprint. Im tempted to say LOS was caused by flashing, but from looking at the hundreds+ of posts on sprint's website, its just a phone issue. Im open to suggestions....

-Sincrerely, 11 year Sprint customer that just got hosed after my "upgrade"

Is proposing that flashing IS causing LOS bad?? Sure seems that way for me for 2 separate Galaxy S II's...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
I know it lists as having it, but I'm some earlier posts there were reports of it not having support.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] globen:
I took all your suggestions...backup rom start over, even flashed starburst rom still could not connect wifi tether...im out of ideas...the only thing I can think of is does sprint need to activate hotspot for your phone? Any other suggestions would greatly be appreciated. Otherwise might have to back to evo...and I dont wanna do that!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Use this zip
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
Just the act of flashing your phone doesn't increase LOS chances. Using a compiled kernel based off of the source code Samsung provided does appear to increase LOS occurrences FOR SOME however. Chris41g's LoStKernel seems to have done the best job at limiting this behavior so far, but no kernel is LOS proof, including stock.

Flashing the stock pulled kernel will move your kernel back to stock and should bring you back to your "LOS Potential State" prior to flashing this ROM. When I say LOS potential, I mean the same chance for LOS as you had when you took the phone out of the box.

We really need a LOS FAQ sticky in the General Forum. I think it would be pretty helpful.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Skorpion56:
I dont see any zip attached...

---------- Post added at 09:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:18 PM ----------

Seeing Calkulin's work since the Samsung Moment, Im convinced a (better) fix will come from XDA probably sooner and cleaner than Ole' Sammy... I see what your saying about the compiled kernel tho... understood.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
No problem my friend I was using it for quite some time. Download setcpu if you like to make any minor changes

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ma$etas:
Polaris office FC's i already cleared app data in settings.

Im running this rom but V1.0 the initial release edition with Chris stock kernel and i installed Crawrj AIO mod on top (but i didnt wipe in CWM) everything was running smooth but only issue im having is this FC's and HTC keyboard installed is also FC for the 1st time.

Anyone got an idea should i install the newer version of this rom. or should i just re install everything but wipe 3x in CWM before installing AIO mod. ( really like not having a lockscreen)

TIA

EDIT:

Was reading a couple pages back and noticed post #1619 which also stated he had issues with polaris office . I guess its the rom .

Anyone know of a fix for this issue though.

Good thing i Grabbed Quick office pro from the Amazon app store today since its the free app for of today.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DXL XLR8:
anyway of making the bootup animation a live wallpaper. I know it will drain the battery, but it will look badass!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
While most of us agree that it is total B.S. for Sprintsung to have released a phone with such a potential major issue, I think many of us would still rather have this phone than most on the market today. I would. I'm very confident that a fix will come from Samsung and that an even quicker solution will come via the development community.

In the meantime, this fix is definitely working for me, though I only recently began experiencing any LoS episodes.

HaiKaiDo modified version of viperMOD LoS Checker.

Haven't had an LoS since I flashed it. Of course the way it is setup, even if I did, I probably wouldn't know it. Instant gratification. YMMV
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
Not sure if the newer version would help but you should try the app after a fresh install and no AIO mod. Even though the mod works it does have different tweaks in it than what Caulkins rom has in it. For instance is your dial key in the middle or is it to the left. The original rom has it show up in the middle and after I flashed the AIO to test something I noticed it moved. So I know some tweaks are being broken and it may affect other things

Also try and run fix permissions either in CWM or through Rom Manager, that helps out as well for FC's
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ma$etas:
thanks for the reply.

I flashed calks Format all zip then i flashed v1.0 rom and tried it and polaris wouldnt open up the Document. Then i flashed the rom update v1.0 to v1.1 and it still wouldnt open up the document it would FC's or just go back to apps home screen. So now atleast to me i know its the rom . I flashed AIO mod again like i had previously done since it hadnt given me any issues along with Chris stock kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
@Calk - what is your thoughts to bringing the AIO mod to this ROM?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Calkulin:
I had to recompile Polaris Office to be able to move it to the data partition, so I'll recheck the app and post a fix soon(probably not tonight tho)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Calkulin:
Also I'm working on a mini version of this ROM, just the bare essentials, so expect it soon
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ma$etas:
can we just un install the one that comes in the rom and re install the apk from another rom ?

I want to learn how to undervolt. can you explain how to ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tracerit:
seems that i'm unable to install/update the new youtube. says device is not compatible in Market :/
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JoeBruin32:
write down the values you see currently in setcpu under the voltage menu, then drop those values by a certain step, like -25mv. Test how the phone functions (run stress test in setcpu, play intense games, use the phone normally for a day). If it works well, (no random freezes, reboots, other weird things) try dropping another -25mv the next day.

The ROM already undervolts you by -50 from stock (so add +50 to the numbers setcpu tells you to know where stock is). Understand that every phone is different, and MOST people can handle -50mv undervolt with no issues, MANY people can handle -100mv with no issues, but FEW people can handle more than that.

So I reflashed V1.0 to get rid of the theme and I have to say that imo it's faster than with the V1.1 update for whatever reason....call me crazy but this thing is blazzzing!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] weltwon:
V1.0 better than V1.1

You're not crazy. I went back to Calkulin V1.0 and by simply tweaking my CPU on a Conservative setting of 200Mhz Min & 1600Mhz Max, my E4GT is running at warp speed and battery only draining 1%/hr on standby!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
That's all it's draining? Damn that's good! I'm not OC'er usually but if battery is that good I think I'll give it a shot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mr Ian B:
Thanks boricua for this great rom Calkulin?

I was able to flash it today and got it almost like I want it. Went to recovery to wipe dalvik and cache to flash nothing but the honey theme but this version of CWM is not working for me. I can use the volume up and down to navigate menu options but the power button does not respond when pushed. Pulled battery a couple of times and could not get phone to reboot. Finally selected reboot in CWM and hit the menu and/or home keys on bottom of phone and the phone rebooted but unable to flash theme or wipe.

Any suggestions???

Thanks,

Ian B

P.S. heading to the island this Saturday for 2 weeks and a cruise.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Biker1:
The Menu button is the Enter button. Or is it the Home button? Been so long, I forgot, but by default, it's one of them.

Or just press the Volume Keys when at the top or bottom of the list;

UP-DOWN-UP consecutively, and you will see a script in CMR that says Power button active, or something to that effect.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mr Ian B:
Oh hell, that was too easy. Thanks, will flash theme tomorrow. Previous cwm version on my stock lost kernel rooted rom required the use of Power button as the enter/select button. Will test battery life and report back. Previous rom I was averaging 2-2.5 days before charging. I consider myself a medium user. No tweeter or Facebook but, long calls and constant texting and playing with this Beauty and the Beast.

Thanks again.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cdszoke:
No tweeter? Do you use a sub-woofer though? I heard they drain battery faster than compared to using with a tweeter.

;p

BTW over a week with this rom and no LOS!!!! Caulkin I love you. I mean your rom. I guess you too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Biker1:
Anytime. Glad it worked for you.

First time I realized this after flashing, I used the Home button as the Enter button.

I was like, What?

After coming from the Evo 4G, I had to get used to this. Until I was told about the Volume Key thing ;-)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mr Ian B:
Biker, I am also coming from an EVO 4g and rooting/flashing themes on this phone are completely new and putting me out of my comfort zone but slowly getting it.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Biker1:

The Evo 4G is a Great Device, and still holds it's own. It's my Back up now.

The SE4GT is a real nice Upgrade, and really is a Fantastic Device!

Arguably, the Best Device available today, even with LoS, which occurs infrequently in my case.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mr Ian B:
Loved my EVO except for lousy battery even after rooted. Now thisGalasy gives 2 days before I have to charge and this screen, what else can you say. People are always asking me about it and how does it compare to iPhone. I tell them the iPhone is a dumbed down phone that can't be customized for the most part. This coming from me who had a 3G iPhone for two years. Love my ipad but I am so past iPhones it is not funny. Have managed to convert and educate friends and coworkers to android phones and they seem happy.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JoeBruin32:
Okay, just had a really weird bug involving stock mail app and htc keyboard. I tried replying to an email via those two, and my phone started doing soft reset loops (freeze before keyboard could pop up, phone reset to lock screen and everything had to load as if I just turned the phone on). Htc keyboard was working fine for everything else before this. I think this might have been the first time I tried to write an email with that combo (gmail works fine with HTC keyboard).

Restarting the phone, pulling the battery, etc did not help. Soft resets kept looping every 10 second or so. Finally I tried running titanium backup with the intent to wipe and start over, and the resets stopped. I tried writing another email to replicate the bug and I noticed the phone reset to the swype keyboard, and now everything seems fine. Gonna switch to htc and try to replicate again now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JoeBruin32:
Yep, it happened again. Swipe keyboard works fine but HTC_ime super lags and causes issues with stock mail app. The settings on my HTC keyboard uunder text input has everything checked as on except for sound feedback, if that matters. also, I'm on ics theme. Can anyone else replicate?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tracerit:
What do you mean by get rid of the theme?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lkctd8:
I havent read every single post on all the pages so forgive me if I repost, and its not a huge deal but havent experienced it until this rom so I thought I would post it. Occasionally on situations where the keyboard pops up, it shows up in landscape when the screen is actually portrait...meaning I cant see about half of the keyboard. All I usually have to to is turn it sideways (landscape) and back again and it corrects itself. Not a big deal but just something I noticed. Besides my ghost los that I get a few times a day (says I have signal but texts/calls/web dont work...except wifi) I havent had any other bugs that have caught my attention. Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
I was tired of the blue ics theme that I had flashed, so I reflashed the rom over to clear it. This time I actually did a full wipe for the hell of it..

Sorry I see how that would be confusing ..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] globen:
HELP?! I bought this phone thinking that wireless tether would be available to use, but when I activate sprint hotspot it says that carrier has to activate it. What do I tell sprint when I call them?? I dont want to pay another $30 a month! What should I do??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JoeBruin32:
You should start your own thread in the the Q&A forum!! Aside from that, you could flash this ROM!! Then tether with 3G using sprint hotspot!! 4G doesn't work though!! Oh no?? It's okay, use PDAnet with a wired tether!!

This is the best rom, period. My phone works amazing, overclocks to 1.6 and runs fine for hours ( only crashes when I run antutu or cfbench at 1.6 too many times, I guess they stress and overheat the cpu too much). Here are some pics at 1.6ghz..!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Fus3D:
TO BE CLEAR I'M TALKING ABOUT VERSION 1.0, NOT 1.1. HAVE NOT TESTED NEW ONE BUT I WILL!

If you want this rom to work RIGHT, flash it only after wiping and clearing cache and dalvik SEVERAL TIMES. If you think you've done it too many times, do it one more time to make sure. Lol. Battery life could be better at 1.2 and on demand but I love this rom and I've tried them all. Viper rom, zedo, etc. Nothing stacks up, plus I love the five button dock, which is nice, the notification bar, the icon colors, and all the other badass things on this rom.
