Having trouble flashing this rom

after flashing calk's format all 3 times, I go ahead and flash the rom and reboot. Phone sits at triangle boot screen for 10+ minutes with no activity. Have to do nand restore to make phone usable again.

Ive had this problem with other roms too. The issue is anytime I format system, it does something to phone that wont allow it to boot up again normally.

Any ideas why and what I can do to fix it?

Here's a fix for the missing apps in Market
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
Have you rebooted?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] paranoid android85:
What about using the nandroid app extractor in titanium?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Calkulin:
Not bad but you may want to keep the 1350 voltage at that since not many phones can run 1.4GHz at voltages less than that, even phones that can run the -100mV script. I posted a -75mV now in the FAQ for those that wanted it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bones8229:
yes. also took the yellow triangle off.

^^^^^^^^ this
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] akarol:
I just got one today. =( For some reason I've been getting more LOSes with 1.0.0.8exp kernel which is what this ROM is using. I'm probably going back to 1.0.0.4exp if this continues to give me problems. Had a lot better luck with it.

Try the Market fix Calk just posted a few posts back.

Calk just added the 75mV undervolt script to the 2nd post of the thread in case anyone was interested.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] twoeleven99:
my issue is installing apps through the browser version of the market. the fix didnt help any.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
Tried that as well same result.

OK, I guess I am going to try everything all over again. If you got it working with no issues after reboot, then it has to be something I am doing/in my setup, because something like this can't really work for one and not for others.

I guess we'll see what I come up with.

BTW what kernel did you end with following the triangle fix?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] housry23:
Just wanted to update that I reinstalled this ROM & just like playya & a couple other people said, I installed all my apps separately from the Market & the ROM runs flawlessly. Very impressive. I don't know if there is a problem with TB & touchwiz, but for some reason it makes your phone unuseable after installing your apps & data in TB. It would be helpful if that information could be added to the OP. It's hard to search through pages & pages of a thread to find that out. I read about 15 pages of the thread before giving up & asking. This is my first Samsung phone & it is definitely different than HTC & their Sense UI. Anyway, thanks for the suggestions earlier guys, & thanks to calkulin for the ROM.

Really appreciate the link. I'm using the XDA app, I didn't see it on page one, must have overlooked it. Thanks to all (sorry no "thanks" button on the XDA app).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] buggerritt:
You can try that. Many times, it will work great. If you end up with some things not working right, you should odin stock rooted/odin cwm/flash the ROM.

Side note: Mobile Odin works great for both of the Odin flashes.

Tried a few ROM's and I must say this one is just great:D, I hope it improves my battery life which was pretty crap before:confused:

Can I flash this on top of 2.5?

If so, am I correct that I DO NOT have to clear the cache and Dalvik?

If I install on top, will all of my info be intact?

Flashed 2.6 Bare yesterday using the first zip that was uploaded and so far so good. Battery life seems to be pretty good too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] twoeleven99:
did you use any of the undervolt zips? also when syncing in currents does it run just a tad slow while trying to browse articles ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Product F(RED):
How the hell are you all getting this battery life? I get maybe 10-12 hours on average (estimating off the top of my head). And the other thing is sometimes I'll reboot the phone (this used to happen a lot more often) and the battery would be like 90-something or 80-something before and after the reboot it would be like 20 or 30-something. Wiped battery stats on everything. This was on multiple ROMs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
+1 The Download All app works well. You can tell the app where to download the file to.

I just cwm flashed the ROM nothing elsethe flash wipes what needs to be wiped
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lesbox:
I've had this problem 3 times now on my et4g, it always seems to happen after I've flashed around 5 roms to it (like to try them all), and once when I flashed the modem only to EL13 from EG30....

Once this started happening to me, I used odin to flash back to full stock, non-rooted and all; being sure to use the PIT file and re-partition the system, when flashing the stock TAR. Once you're back to stock, just re-root, and start flashing again to your hearts content.

It's fixed it all three times for me, and after the reroot and reinstall of Caulks, I usually see on average about 24+ hours of battery life, with 4+ hrs. of screen time.... of course results will vary based on user settings... but imo this ROM is the best out there!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Product F(RED):
Do you have a link to the PIT file or is it in the thread with the original firmware?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Honestly I usually just let it sync and then go back to read it after. I haven't used anything at all, just flashed and kept going as normal.

Wiping battery stats does nothing on this phone from what I understand. I haven't done anything special though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ceddie85:
iam on stock non rooted ek02 can i jus flash the roms in recovery or do i hav to be rooted 1st?

---------- Post added at 09:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:02 PM ----------

^^^^^^^^^^ I want to flash a theme but not if its going to change any mods calk may have made
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ceddie85:
ok and hw do i do that with the 2 modem files using odin?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] twoeleven99:
well you want to root first before flashing a modem. you need to download a file from the root thread. Theres a youtube video up on exactly how to do it with the files needed linked in the video description. once youre rooted you need to place the modem files on your sd card and flash it like you would a rom assuming you know how, again theres youtube vid linked in the threads here. then once you have the modem you want, download this rom and flash it. youtube videos for all three processes are here in this forum. if it sounds complicated its not, once you see how its done on youtube its easy as pie. here is a link to the rooting video, search this guys channel he has all the videos youre looking for. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1EwEYVB_ut4

I seen this as well on my phone.

I can re-create it by holding the phone in landscape and then shutting off the screen using the power button. When I hit the power button to bring the screen backup then everything is reversed...

The only workaround I found to fix this bug is to lock it again... turn it to landscape and then unlock it using landscape..

Is there a permanent fix? I check the other thread but I did not see anything definitive.

is it ok to flash 2.6 over 2.5.1? if so would i need to wipe cache and dalvik cache?

From what I gather.. you do not need to wipe cache or davlik cache... the install script will wipe it for you.

I upgraded two phones from 2.5.1 to 2.6 this morning. I just installed the 2.6 zip. No problems so far.

I just installed it and a few minutes later it started flipping out. I plugged it into the charger and set it on the passenger seat in the car. then the lock screen flipped upside down in the lettering was backwards. I held the power button down and tried to choose reboot, but airplane mode kicked in. I tried it again but this time airplane mode and then it rebooted as it should have. I just said to hell with it and restored a copy of the version I had before I installed this 2.0.1a
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
@Oscar - what's your flashing routine etc? Those issues sound unique as I have run these rom's since calk released them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
is the ICS rotation animation baked in?, that can happen if you lock the screen in landscape mode. I ditched the animation myself. As good as it looks, I strive for perfection in my setup and that happened once to me so it had to go

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Have you tried flashing SFHUB's stock ROM's first via ODIN? I have now incorporated that into my flashing routine. Yes it adds about another 10 minutes, but its worth coming from scratch. Plus I slip stream all the new releases anyways with my custom favorites so it actually evens out. I would suggest that, maybe going to Rogue's recovery and stock kernel maybe? Just something doesn't sound right ya know?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Drop Knowledge:
I know this is a problem w/ that animation, but doesn't seem to be a problem for this ROM. I can lock my screen in landscape and my display is normal when I bring it back up.

I'm also running the ACS ICS theme, so maybe it was fixed w/ the theme and actually still is an issue in the base ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
I use whatever comes with the ROM. No custom. 95% I don't need to use odin unless going back to complete stock or it can't be done in cwm. It isn't a big deal. I'm not worried about odin cause I have a jig too. I wish I could have got a screen shot, it was funny. It rotated 180° and all text was backwards and locked into that view.

Second this... :) I did some searching and they don't allow links to swype on these board; however, you can grab it from the "removed.zip" (remove apps) that is on Phantom's SB 1.9.8r ROM thread. It is in the OP, or the second, forget.

The beta is more up to date, but I missed the emoticon button to insert emoticons. The astrix "*" also takes two clicks to get to now, since you have to hit SYM before seeing it. Pretty lame :|

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] skandranon314:
Almost positive the beta is what is including in the rom. I want the stock version back. Guess I could pull it from a stock rom, but I have had problems with "unlicensed" version before. Hoping there was a thread on it, but I couldn't find one.

My biggest complaint is whenever I use a word not in the dictionary, if forces me to choose it before continuing or it changes it to what word it thinks I should be using. The stock version did not do this. Also very much miss the emoticon button. Added that the update to the stock swype fixed the not spacing, it is far better. Swype needs more options in the menu. These could be easily fixed if there were. I will check that link out, thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
@Skan - gotcha, makes sense now, sorry thought you were looking to get the most up to date, but appears that's giving the issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
You basically have to push the 2 files from the previous build with Root Explorer and overwrite them. I believe they are .so files. I will be back with an "edit" shortly to confirm the file names

libsurfaceflinger.so and libsurfaceflinger_client.so are the two files to replace to get rid of the rotation animations. After you push them to /system/lib, the phone will "hot reboot." Don't forget to change permissions to rw-r--r--.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SSaxman:
I haven't heard of a definitive fix yet. There's a thread about the CRT animation being backwards (with animations) or a white screen (without animations) in the Euro SGSII forum. Looks like somebody posted a file that might be a fix, but the file is from source (.cpp I think) and needs to be converted to .so.

As far as I know this is a known, if rarely occurring bug.

If it happens again, move your finger around in the middle of the screen too try and get past the lock screen. (Remember that all actions will be backwards and upside down.) Then open an app. For me, I usually open the camera app as it is right on my home screen. This immediately corrects the issue, no reboot necessary.
