What are the differences between the 3?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yellowman82:
Is there any aosp lock screen mod that works with this from?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Speed vs. battery. Aggressive = better battery life, you want faster, then battery life will suffer accordingly.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Maxx134:
an ICS theme for calk like this one :

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
Do they work for blazer kernel?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Yes, they should fine for the Gingerbread build.

Only thing is if you go to settings, about phone, it will say Calk 3.0 instead of Blazer because the build.prop information line was edited. Nothing to worry about just wanted to let you know.

Attached is the stock Blazer 4.1 tweaks that will overwrite mine and put you back to stock Blazer 4.1.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
I'm on calks rom but I used blazers kernel since data speeds were cut in half with calks kernels

I can't use aggressive tweaks on it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
That's what I usually run. But if something is lagging, try going to medium next.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
I'm running it now nothing is lagging yet :)

What modems have been working for people on this rom
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sniper:
Modems are a case by case basis affected by the phones themselves and where you are. Best way is to just try out different ones and see what works best.

Click here for custom mods for your E4GT
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
I know that but I wanna get a consensus so I can try those
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sniper:
Oops, I don't know why I accidentally put roms at first instead of modems :banghead: guess I wasn't paying enough attention. But people can tell you what modems or just setup they use in general and it's a little different for everyone. Fwiw I've been using the FF18 modem for a while and it works good for me...

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
I got what you meant :p lol

One more thing....is there an extended toggles mod for this awesome rom?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
I'm going to give you the toggles from Blazer rom. I'm sure PH doesn't care, he's been busy with ICS anyway.

Remember to backup your rom first. This will replace a couple of system files and it's also going to end up giving you some of his theme. But it'll be fun to play with so here it is.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BHurst:
Where can I get blazer's kernel? Much better than the one this ROM comes with?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yellowman82:
I think the kernel your looking for is el29 kernel you can find it in the dev forums
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] centro714:
The wifeys phone just received the latest ics update.

Once I root it, can I flash this GB version of calk or do I have to flash the ics version?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fredrick1213:
I personally Odin back to EL29 and use autoroot to flash the EL26 kernel with CWM. After that I flash Calk's format all zip twice and and flash the ROM and bare ROM converter afterwards
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] centro714:
I just watched a video by qbking77 saying after an ICS ff18 phone gets rooted and cwm installed, its safe to flash ANY rom. Going by that, i'm hoping its safe to flash Calks v2.9.2.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] narucii:
youtube not working

is anyone on here have the same issue or is it just me?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fredrick1213:
I believe it's been said that if you flash the source kernel with cwm it's safe to do that but I'm not 100% sure so I don't recommend doing it until you find out
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bmali:
what clockwork do I need to use for this? I'm on stock rooted el.29 with the rogue clockwork installed. I used calks wipe all zip flashed rom then bare rom converter zip then the newest modem and rebooted and phone locked at Samsung logo screen is there something I did wrong?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] juggalo1300:
I would restart from square one with Odin. Then do cwm then I'd flash one thing at a time with a restart each time. I read some where that it can cause problems flashing a bunch of things at once
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bmali:
Ok cool thanks man.... one other thing that happened is that when it locked at the logo I got back into clockwork and tried to restore my nandroid and it errored out and said md5 mismatch. Any clues of why that would happen. And what modem should I be flashing
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] juggalo1300:
I really don't know about that. Maybe use of different recoveries when making and restoring. I'd do a quick search on that. I'd use stock el29 modem since the kernel in the ROM is based on it. modems also are hit and miss... What works for me may not for you. Remember to update prl and profile when updating modems
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] juggalo1300:
Check out this topic for the mismatch

Is it normal for the cpu to be at 800mhz to 1200mhz when looking at it in SetCPU?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] juggalo1300:
Yes that's part of the battery saver script. Helps with the battery when the phone is not active or in sleep mode.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
Does the script still work with another kernel? I'm using blazer's kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
It should have the same init d support
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
So should I uninstall set cpu so it can resume its work?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BHurst:
If I flash this over itself, will it erase my data?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Probably not but you should be making a backup before flashing anyway to be on the safe side. It is easy to do. There are certain operations that you just can't go back from and making frequent backups is a good habit to get into. :)

I am on calc's el29 ROM. As of this weekend, when I download something, it shows up in the notification bar as usual. But when I select it, nothing happens. Does anyone know how to fix this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
I'm not sure what you mean. What are you downloading and what is showing up in the notification bar?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BHurst:
Pdf files, pictures... They show up as downloaded but when I select then they don't open. The bar just closes. I have to go into browser downloads section to open them. I use miren. This never happened before.

Thank you for your help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bmali:
Since I had problems flashing last time do you guys think I should flash the el.29 modem? I used the fe.22 do you think that had anything to do with it getting stuck at the Samsung logo?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] juggalo1300:
having a different modem shouldn't affect the install at all. The only way it would affect anything is your radio. I flashed this running ff18 with no issues. So im guessing you got it up and running after your issues last night.

The el29 might work best with your kernel I'd try it out and update your prl and profile once installed..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] juggalo1300:
What version of the ROM? 3.0?? 2.9.x ?? I tried an early build and I had issues with things like that. If it's a early build try a newer version. Could have been a bug that was fixed when it was updated
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BHurst:
I figured it out... I had to give the browser auto start privileges I took away. Thanks for checking
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smccall:
sorry i meant 1.0 to 1.1. download the 1.0 rom then there is an update about 8.82mg or so. just flash 1.0 then the update

you shouldnt have to wipe data but we have all had some problems using TB with this rom if you restore apps only not data you should be ok.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BigRitz:
I have a noob question im sorry, Do I have to do a full wipe just to flash the update or will cache and dalvik work ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] algirnavi451:
No, i'm currently on 1.06, not on 1.0
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BigRitz:

i love this rom and all.. and i hate to be the one to complain, but has anyone had any luck installing Adobe AIR on this rom? I'm dependent on Adobe Flash software for work and am sorta S.O.L right now...

After i flashed i did a prl update and profile i dont know if its needed but after i did the prl update my browser speeds are off the charts.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steelersmb:
Man...I am so done with this ROM. I appreciate the work but my phone was working fine but then the reboots started happening again and I flashed another Kernel but that didn't help. This is the 4 time this has happened to me. I am going to go back to Starbursts ROM for now because I can't take it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smccall:
i will check and see. It installed right on my phone no problems at all. what is it doing exactly
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
Have you considered a odin back to stock just to wipe everything amd start fresh? That could help.

Sent using Calkulin's V1.6
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SayWhat10:
i did the 1.0 to 1.6 update, and phone wont boot

im not a noob, just wiped cache and dalvik and then the update, like others said

i made a nandroid of course, so will wipe whole phone and start from scratch(install fresh 1.1)

Maybe a bad download. I had to download from my pc
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
I use juice defender, everything else just as it comes with the ROM. Keep in mind that this is overnight loss, when nothing is on. This is how it should be on every ROM (though it's not.) Once up and running, I get battery drops just like everyone else.

What has really worked best for me is an app called Battery Repair (Doctor Boost). I don't tout battery life apps, because I don't believe that any two users will ever achieve the same battery use with the millions of variables involved, but this app has had the most profound impact for me of any app/technique I've tried since moving to Android. Even better for me than an SBC kernel.

Unfortunately, it is not working with this ROM (neither is Firefox) so I'm going to have to keep trying to figure out the issue myself, hope for a fix, or head back to StarBurst.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] poopymonster:
Battery Life - need tips/suggestions

How are you guys getting these hours of on-screen time?! I must not be doing something after flashing this rom cuz I'm getting weak battery life!

I flashed this on my E4GT:

Baseband = EL29

Kernel = Rogue 1.4.1

Build # = Calkulins.E4GT.ROM.v3.0

Any suggestions is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Poopymonster
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] juggalo1300:
Try a different kernel. Try different modems. The modems sometime draw more battery life looking for signals. Try some of the battery scripts in this forum. Also do U have all of your apps sync to the net? Turn them off. Lower screen brightness. Turn off the animations.. more it less it depends on the user of the phone and how much they use it. Im sure I could get 30+ hours per a charge but that's not touching the phone. I'd go back to page 1075 or 1080 and read from that point to here. They have slot of scripts and tweaks in that area.

Also if your at home turn off data and everything else and use wifi
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bmali:
@juggalo I haven't got it going yet I'm going to give it a shot this weekend

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bmali:
Thanks bud I'll keep you posted
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
Yeah kernel/modem combo seems to be the big thing with battery life. Personally I use the stock repacks over gunslinger. Using gunslinger I'm lucky if my phone stays alive for 8 hours without even touching it. Modem and your area is a huge part of it. I just run el29 modem, calls 3.0, and the el29 stock repack kernel. I can get about 2 hours screen time in an 16 hour cycle...I'm sure I could get better life if I spent more time testing modems but I really need steady battery life with my job therefore I dont have the opportunity to be testing too much. Cheers and good luck.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yellowman82:
Well I'm in Miami so coverage is pretty good my setup is

Modem:ek02

Kernel: gunslinger

Caulks stock tweaks which I think is undervolted by -50, I don't under clock I get rid of apps that I don't use or need if I want to log in to Facebook I do by browser cuz the app is a big battery hog, GPS is always off I only turn it on if I needed, sync is off I do it manually but most importantly is at work I'm on wifi which really helps alot on the drainage but when I get home I use my 4g most time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] poopymonster:
Thanks guys for your input!

So the consensus here is kernel/modem combo. I guess the combo I'm on now is not working out for me.

I'm going to try stock kernel and the el29 that's included in this ROM. I'll report back.

Thanks again!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Maxx134:
WHAT DA U talking about?

my benchmarks in my sig show the 1.4.1 kernl as fastest..

Isnt that just a el29 kernal or is it tweaked?

Dam now I gotta try that for myself?!?

I think..

I think its mainly da modem.

I tink its also da 1.4.1 kernal, but I keep it anyway since in my testing has best benchmarks

I would also try the tweaks and the undvolt scripts, for your kernal.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
What kernel is everyone referring to as Blazers kernel? Just the stock repack? Also, I was wondering why some days android OS doesnt show up in my battery charts. Actually, many apps are selectively shown on a day to day basis. I was on twitter a lot today and normally that would cause it to pop up in the list of things consuming battery. Strange...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
Whoooaaaa... 13 hours and your at 80%... wat kernel are you using? I'm back to this Rom with the included gunslinger kernel and rd 's tweaks....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
We may need a kernel link lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
Ha ha for real... or hes just not using it on 3g... maybe staying on wifi forever helps lol...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Chauleyboii:
+1000000

Is that with stock battery??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
Actually just running the stock EL29 repack and using the tweaks that tdunham's aggressive tweaks. No underclocking and wifi on all the time (not always connected though). Nothing special really except for the tweak scripts. Only thing that kills my battery is low signal. I try to remember to turn off data when I'm in areas with weak signal so its not constantly connecting and disconnecting.

And yes, stock battery. I have a few after market ones but they don't hold a candle to the stock battery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Chauleyboii:
Right on
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
Should be this one I think

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
Roger that, I had figured that's what people were referring to as "blazers kernel" as its the one that comes with his rom. I've actually been tempted to try out the Rogue Desperado kernel, as I'm reading people who had drain issues with Gunslinger had better luck with Desperado. Either way, I can certainly vouch for the stock repacks in terms of performance and battery life. Those who are experimenting with kernels and modems, don't forget you have to let them settle in for a few cycles (3 minimum in my opinion) in order to see the results. Cheers!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
It has init support rigJr? So we could use calks undervolt scripts...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
lemme check, booting up right now...GB its been a while lol

Edit: Init.d is present....I'm going to use TD's 1.2 aggressive and -75 uv. Used to run this setup all the time
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
Anyone have the problem where g+ keeps sending notification on a post comment even though it's been acknowledged already and muted?? ****'s driving me nuts. Ended up uninstalling the app.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Phone won't boot if you use 1.2 with a stock kernel btw.

Have to use 1.1 tweaks for stock.

Sent from my SPH-D710
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
Great job reading steve o! lol It booted, but I'll grab the 1.1......

I still have the beta for Blazer TD wanted to give this a run I miss it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
No problem. I think 1.2 may boot on a stock kernel, but it locks up in deep sleep almost immediately. Did for me anyway. Might have been my setup but I put the warning out anyway about that version.

Sent from my SPH-D710
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
Yeah it got real sluggish....Flashed the 1.1 so its all good. Going to leave out the -75 UV and just roll with the -50 included
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
Fa sho... thanks Steve... yea I was going to try it out... imma see how this gunslinger go for a couple days then compare em
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
I forgot that I had the tweaks on and installed setcpu like a dummy and got crazy lag when I got a phone call... so if it wasn't stated before I've tested it DON'T INSTALL SETCPU IF YOU HAVE TD'S TWEAKS INSTALLED... so I just uninstalled it and I think things are back to normal...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] raclimja:
hi

what is the best modem / kernel for this rom in terms of battery life and reliability?

i would also appreciate if you could post undervolt settings for the cpu

thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
For me it was el29 modem. And el13 kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
Check out a page back, link to the stock repack with rogue recovery. I'm using el 29 modem, stock repack kernel and tdunham's tweaks 1.1 version aggressive.

Think the tweaks are page 1106 or something like that do a search. They come with -50 under volt and tweak the cpu so you don't have to grab setcpu or tegrak.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
I don't remember where I got it from but it's labeled stock blazer kernel

I get double with it than latest call kernel

I'd get maybe 120KB/s with calks but around 210KB/s with blazer big difference lol

I changed the dpi to 200 on this ROM. Everything is good except dialer buttons are all small. Is there any way to fix this? thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fredrick1213:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
Don't change dpi???? Lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] arrows83:
Check out exDialer or Dialer one onn the market. Really nice and works well when changing dpi.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
Trying out the stock el29 kernel.. not using any tweaks but using SETCPU on conservative.. will see how it goes...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BHurst:
ROM toolbox, or LCD density changer... Both on market.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
Not saying I'm right by any means, but I've found the conservative governor to be useless and makes my system really laggy. I've had much better battery life keeping the ondemand governor selected and just underclocking to 800 or 1000 mhz. That was before tdunhams tweaks though, which i find to be giving me much better battery life than just underclocking. I'm curious as to how it works for you though. Let us know! Cheers!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
Yeah I agree the tweaks do everything for you
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
Lol... well then im going with the tweaks lol.... has anyone had issues receiving mms messages? Mine just keeps saying downloading...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:
Where can I find those tweaks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
All props go to tdunham of course...these are great tweaks. Youll find that the v1.1 tweaks were made compatible with stock kernels (there are different scripts for stock kernels as opposed to the scripts for custom kernels). V1.2 scripts are for custom kernels only. Just to repeat what tdunham says in the post, DONT FORGET to grab the stock zip so you can flash right back to stock settings in case something goes wrong. Hope it helps! Cheers!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
I've seen others mention said issue, but more so on the earlier ICS builds. Personally I live in an area with overall bad service, so sometimes my incoming mms messages seem to timeout and take a while to get through. Assuming it's not a reception issue, I'm not sure. Maybe try clearing your cache for kicks, and updating profile/PRL.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
Yea that's wat I'm thinking... it finally came thru (some odd number of hours later) but just noticed on ics, it comes thru no problem... but ill keep testing it out and see

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Maxx134:
ok the problem is that kernals were changed since last few Calk roms, so you are not specific enough to state which kernl version you had at the time, , and I believe blzer is just stock el29, so you just have stock el29 and not gunslinger 1.4.1 , which my testing showed as fastest without tweaks, BUT for battery life I am pretty shure 1.4.1 is not best.

Also remember Calk rom comes with undervolt tweaks included so that may be the slowdown U experienced..

Main point is we need to be specific if we are to make progress on performance, OR battery...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
2ND battery cycle...pretty good
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
Is that with the stock el 29 kernel and TD 's 1. 1 tweaks?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
Yes the aggressive ones
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
Coo... that's some great battery life with that much screen on time... Im on gunslinger, with TD 's 1. 2 tweaks and had a random reboot today... don't know wat caused it cuz it happened while it was in my pocket... might give the stock el 29 kernel a try in a day or two if this keeps up..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
Maybe its cuz I have juice defender on...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
Do it, comes with rogue recovery so just make sure to grab the kernel I linked to a few pages back and the 1.1 tweaks. I use the phone as you can see. Music, FB, xda its not just sitting there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
I'm anxious to see what happens if I turn off data cause the building I work in gets me crappy signal.
