Wifi issues

Ok so I am back on 2.6 and not having any issues thus far. Hooked right up to Wifi and working great. I guess I will stay with 2.6 for awhile. Never had any issues with 2.6 with any different kernel or modem either. Weird...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Did you by any chance add the early version of Rogue stock EL26 kernel before it got fixed?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lunchboxVA:
got fixed today...reflash rogue kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I have been doing some testing for a theme update for this ROM and I haven't had any wifi disconnection problems...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Thunder_PC:
Doh, thanks to both of you for the quick reply! Yes i did have an early version.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TonyTurboII:
Jesus, you barely lost any battery while it was sleeping.

Did you say you were going to stay on the stock kernel repack?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vegasden:
If the Rom worked before you flashed the theme, then the issue is with the theme. Important files get changed. Wipe your caches and try again.

In regards to WiFi, once I thought I had an issue. Kept getting "obtaining ip address and then a disconnect". I discovered the router extender I use needed a reboot. So, if the issue is at home, reboot (as others suggested) the router. Some also have success having your phone "forget" the router (press on the router name in WiFi connections and you'll see the option) and do a new connection. But with 2.7 I haven't any issues.

.....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Yup. I have had great success with Chris's kernel but I hear great things about Rogue as well. Its all about how you set things up. I got rid of the bloat. No underclock or undervolt
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Give it time. The first boot takes a while for some reason. I know for a fact that the theme is problem free..EDIT.. forgot about multi quote, sorry
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] buggerritt:
You must not have any apps syncing like FB huh?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Only 3 email accounts syncing. When I have Twitter synced as well I lose another 2% or so. Social Hub and apps tied to it deleted. Inverted Twitter and Facebook in their place. Sprint bloat removed. I also delete Maps and install it as needed. I do have Telenav always installed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smccall:
i get better battery life with chris's stock repack plus i love the acs recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pjjohn73:
He added repacked stock with rogue recovery and i believe it includes animated boot
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jirafabo:
I'm getting pretty great battery life on the stock kernel from yesterdays 2.7 as well. Down 30% after 9 hours of regular use. Usually I'm down around 40-50% by now.

Anyhow, am I correct in thinking that this ROM comes stock with the CPU maxed at 800mhz? I see the 3 profiles, but I'm a little confused on the profiles setup, and above that in the OP it says something about 800mhz max, 200mhz min.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rkjunior:
anyone having issues with the HTC keyboard force-closing on e-mails. So far on reply and new email, it will open the window to type then get VERY slow - eventually to a force close. If you switch to a different keyboard and try, it's fine. the HTC keyboard seems to work in SMS/Web/etc fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MAX_POWERS:
The theme worked on the older 2.7. Guess the theme is incompatible with the latest Calk 2.7
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Ok, I am going to give Banksmi the heads up on that. Thanks!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
on the new 2.7 build I have noticed something weird happening. I have flashed this after a full wipe and notice I have my lockscreen turn on randomly. I have no lock. when I am using my phone dir a split second it comes up and disappears. it locks phone while it happens. I know my phone isnt timing out. anyone else having this problem? I notice it the most while browsing the web
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vegasden:
Based on Calkulin's post, the only thing he changed was replace the kernel. Did you, by chance, flash his add-on for the CRT animation? If so, that might have made a difference.

.....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Yeah, there should be no conflict with a kernel change. I can flash the new 2.7 and test it with the theme unless someone else can confirm its ok.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigdog1459:
has anyone been having random almost reset issues? Im runnin el26 and the phone will be fine till i let the screen go off. then itll just shut off. im not oc or uv and nothing outta the ordanary apps are installed. im gonna try a fresh install here and see if maybe it was a bad install
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chunology:
They don't load at all? or they take a bit to load?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vikramjatt11:
Thank u for clarifying that! Can't wait for the next sprint update that is suppose to come soon!! Hope it cleans up all this LoS mess.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dante32278:
They don't load at all...I have to do another reboot to get them to load. Tried it out 3 random times today just to see if it was a flook. I also tried just going into settings and mounting the SD card but it does nada after an apparent start download notification.

Other than that this ROM has been awesome.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Storm T:
Pretty good quad
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Hey are you using the regular, undervolted 50 or 100 setting?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aiverson23:
Ok, so I flashed and now I cant get past the Galaxy S splash screen. And I cant get back into recovery since it wont go past the splash. Any Ideas?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Biker1:
Maybe pull the battery.

Reinstall the battery, press power button and volume down at the same time. Keep pressing until you boot into recovery, than release buttons and press volume up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Maybe odin the stock kernel and recovery? Or trying odin a stock rooted romy

Loving this rom
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
BootLoop on Lockscreen...

Running the ROM with no issues...but if I reboot for any reason(making a backup or just powering up the phone after letting battery die completely)

I get stuck on the lockscreen and just bootloops. Can't unlock phone/lockscreen. Does anyone know what could be causing this???
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Full wipes etc etc? Use the wipe all zip?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kzoak82:
Ok I need some help. I downloaded and flashed but the phone wouldn't boot (bad download?). I couldn't even get in recovery. Long story short i ended up having to odin stock then restore a nand. Problem is that my battery drained during this entire process. I didnt have a charger handy and stupid me kept trying to put the phone on until it just shut off on its own and eventually died. I put it on the charger overnight and woke up to an extremely hot dead phone. The phone has no sign of life. Nothing happpens when i plug the charger in (no blue light; nothing) it just starts to get hot after a while. Did i completely kill the battery to the point that it cant take a charge? Im going to get a new battery but wanted to throw this out there in case someone has had a similar experience.

Any ideas on whether its just the battery or did i do something worse? Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
I would swap out battery first and see what you got, otherwise just take it in to sprint and try and get it swapped out
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ryanaathome:
This ROM is awesome, but I am having a BIG issue I need dealt with about this ROM. When too many applications are runing, and task killer doesn't kill everything, I go to the Samsung Task manager, and clear the RAM. While doing that I had my phone switched to go keyboard, because I don't like the ones provided. When I clear RAM, it reverts the keyboard back to Swype. I don't like that. I don't like Swype, that's why I changed. I can't uninstall Swype (I don't know how to do it, when I went to the Swype details page, it didn't give me the option to uninstall). It reverts to Swype each time I clear my RAM, and I have to change the input method back to my preferred keyboard. Is there a mod/patch/update that will solve this issue, or am I the only one facing it, because I flashed different ROMs and never had the issue before and never had that issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Titanium backup with let you remove it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
To all of you guys posting about the Hotspot hack, I posted the jar file in this thread that works. It does not break anything that I know of... If you cant do a search to find it just click the little paperclip to the right of the header for this thread in the forum and you will find the file framework.jar. Download and push it over to your system/framework folder and reboot
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ryanaathome:
Can't find that option. Anything else (free)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
go into TB and scroll down to the app you want to remove click the app one time and the options will appear
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chunology:
How do I shot web?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
G'man, I did use the wipe all zip provided in the OP and then flash the ROM. Now, when I do that method and reboot the system in recovery...no issues. Phone boots up fine and everything runs smoothly.

But, when I do any type of reboot to flash a theme or whatever...phone bootloops in the LockScreen. Forces me to do the 'wipe all' zip and start over. Has never happened to me in any case.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nabbed:
Nice rom. I only have one complaint - the lockscreen wake up time a bit longer than stock.

Can someone finally fix the damn thing?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] twoeleven99:
using the minimal black theme without any problems
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vMAC:
Can anyone let me know if the MMS size can be adjusted in this ROM?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MAX_POWERS:
It's working now. Black and white theme has been updated. It's even better now it has 11 toggles

Google Maps FC

I've been getting random and repeated FCs on Google maps, not even just when I'm trying to use it.

I'm on 2.7 with the Rogue stock kernel and have tried clearing cache and data for the app with no change.

Thanks in advance everyone
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hammersfd:
Any way to revert to the 4x4 app drawer? Coulda sworn there was a flash for older versions
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
Fresh install? If not did you wipe both caches before upgrading?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gti151:
It wasn't a fresh install, I was coming from 2.6. I did do a wipe of the cache and dalvik though I believe. I may just try again to be sure though, I usually do out of habit but I suppose it's possible I didn't this time and relied on Calk's built-in wiping.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
Was 2.6 fresh? Try backing up, then installing fresh to see if the FCs go away
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TonyTurboII:
Try using TB and totally uninstalling maps.

You should be able to get it back out of the market, and I would try that before the pain of a full wipe and reinstall.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] romang:
Thanks, but it doesn't really work this way,cyanogen mod libraries need to be built in the ROM,DPS app is useless without it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bravo1565:
I haave definitly notice better battery life its been 4 hours and im only at 90% thats great
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
Well that's good to know lol...thanks for the heads up on that.

I thought the same too, and it was because the rom I was running back then must of had those built in already. And it definitely worked. I just tried it on Calk's and it's a no go like you stated.

Have you tried poweramp from the market? Fantastic sound, best I've tried so far. They even have a full14 day trial.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
PowerAmp is great. I keep all of my music on SD and it has no problem finding it. 12 band EQ, changeable skin, etc. I bought the paid version months ago and its well worth it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] drmacinyasha:
Calkulin,

Please remove any spaces and special characters from the ro.build.display.id line in /system/build.prop. Unless someone can confirm otherwise, my testing indicates that having spaces and special characters (the apostrophe in "Calkulin's") breaks Chrome To Phone's ability to register with C2DM. I imagine this probably extends to other apps as well.

Thank you.

PS, please feel free to not include GO Launcher and similar apps. If I desire another launcher, I and all other users are fully capable of downloading and installing one from the Market. Thanks again. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bear Knuckles:
Hello gentlemen,

Just flashed over 2.5.1 to 2.7. I get those errors when trying to update PRL and Profile.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] grandmastem:
He currently does offer a version without the other stuff installed... download BARE rom and not the other. -Grand
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bear Knuckles:
Please feel free to uninstall anything from his rom that you don't like.

;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] drmacinyasha:
And what else does it not include? There's no list of added/removed apps on the first page, and digging through over 100 pages of posts to find a list that should be included in the OP is not reasonable.

Personally, I don't have several hours to play Guess What APK Has Been Removed Today!.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] grandmastem:
Well, since you are "perfectly able to install it yourself", then install BARE and then the others. -Grand

P.S. It basically only includes the system files... no third party apps. It does have TW as default launcher and the majority of everything you are probably looking for.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crevis24:
Ungreatful much? Download the rom, use 7zip on your computer and add/delete whatever you want in the rom before you install it.

A little work and research on a rom before you install it is a wonder.

Best ROM out Calk. Keep up the great work!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] schnergun:
would it hurt anything if i were to use titanium backup to remove accuweather, allshare, apmobile, buddies now, digital clock, download all files, dual clock, mediahub, roboto flipfont, ronoto small flipfont, snsfacebook, snsaccoutnli, snsaccounttw, social hub, talkback, yahoo finance?

sorry but none of this stuff i would actually use. I apprecite everyones help
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] grandmastem:
Yes. However, I am not sure about these ones:

snsfacebook, snsaccoutnli, snsaccounttw, buddies now

-Grand
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] schnergun:
so I CAN delete them? Or no?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Yes u can
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] grandmastem:
I would say it is safe to delete the all BUT the ones I listed. I am not sure about those 4 that I put down. Uninstall the others using Titanium Backup or another file manager. I would NOT remove the ones I listed though, until someone else chimes in on those ones.

-Grand

P.S. Make sure you ALWAYS make a nandroid before removing stuff from the system folder though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] schnergun:
thanks for your help. I appreciate it!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darren.wlsn1:
chiming in to say those are all safe to remove.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I always delete those myself.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] schnergun:
deleted :) I appreciate all the chiming!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AVAH0LIC:
Very happy with your ROM Calk runnin glass theme with undervolt and haven't ran into any issues. Thank you so much for the hard work --- proud to run your stuff. Idk what others are complaining about I'm having great results and I really don't understand how ppl can complain about extra apps when they clearly have the option to not get them :O lol whatever some people just don't read i suppose
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] romang:
I wanted something that would work on any app that outputs sound that I use, like Pandora,iheartradio etc , I know Power amp is great, use it my self all the time
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I think "Equalizer" app may do that. I have that and AudioBoost SGS2. I will check those out real quick..edit...yup, I think either one will meet your needs..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
Volume+ from the market looks promising too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dunebuggydude11:
Personally, I think DSP Manager works the best and it's free as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I just grabbed that to try it as well. I have 3 apps to compare tomorrow...lol. I will report my findings after I compare/contrast them all
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
I bought Volume+ just now. it does not appear to make an audible difference on the SII running this rom.

at least not for the ringtone. I have not tried other options (incall and bluetooth etc..)

but so far not looking good. pity as the ringer on this phone can be a bit on the low side and I used volume optimized ringers.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I can't edit these in sooo..this is what the 3 look like. Equalizer says it all, AudioBoost is plain Jane boost, and Volume+ has lots to play with...Volume+ seems to have everything but sound quality is the key...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
Nice, Let us know.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
Seriously?

I'm sure Calk is very grateful for your permission to make changes to his ROM. How magnanimous of you. Not sure if you meant to sound like a completly entitled prick or if it just came off that way, but between this and your subsequent post, you might want to check yourself.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ssconceptz:
But chrome to phone has been broken forever on this rom. Would be nice to have it back. Go launcher is included but you can just remove it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dr_gibberish:
+1111111111111111111111!

Calkulin, thank you so much for your work on this ROM. Your dedication to both improving it and keeping it up to date are truly appreciated by most of us.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
Agreed, it's not the information that was the issue, it was the delivery. There's a right way to report bugs. That wasn't it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pjjohn73:
I tried to use CtoP the other day and it wouldn't work. I thought it was just a fluke and did not associate it to the ROM. I would try to send stuff to the phone and nothing would happen.

I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and it worked after that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
Chrome to phone works fine for me including on latest 2.7 (I just reset it to work)

now whenever you install a new rom it "BREAKS" chrome to phone.

it must save a key or something somewhere ???

anyway easy to fix. goto applications chrome to phone and CLEAR DATA

now start chrome to phone it will be as if you just installed it with intial setup.

do it. your done it will work again instantly. (might take reboot)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] buggerritt:
This did not work and caused my phone to not boot. Luckily, I made a nandroid just before attempting this. First I attempted the copying files to where they go method. After restoring, I tried to flash the zip. It aborted because it was an amend scripted zip file.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Devi0124:
Is it possible that if you don't have time, maybe the op doesn't have time to cater to you?

It never ceases to amaze me how rude, demanding, and utterly ridiculous people can be. It's as if they deserve everything handed to them and people to bow at their feet and kiss their filthy toes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zorachus:
Seriously, with Calk's ROM + this Theme, who needs the Galaxy-Nexus ? This ROM is AWESOME :D My coworker has the new Nexus, and I swear honestly it is choppy and laggy, just opening up from lock screen the Nexus lags, where this phone is warp speed fast smooth. Moving between app drawer and home screen on the Nexus, for sure a good 1-2 second delay, on our E4GT, zero delay. Swiping back and forth between different screens, the Nexus is ever so slightly choppy, where this E4GT has zero chop. Oh and battery life, LOL, no comparison.

Last week I was really considering switching to Verizon for the Nexus, but no way, their price/plans are more expensive, and I feel the Galaxy SII is an equal device, once rooted with a good ROM + Theme. Plus I believe Sprint will really be great by the end of 2012, with their "Network vision" plan.

And typically it seems Sprint gets the better Android lineup. Last year alone Sprint had some wicked new devices; Nexus-S 4G...EVO-3D...Photon 4G...Galaxy SII...iPhone4S... Verizon got what, the Nexus and a couple other medium grade devices.

Only main reason I like the new Nexus is for the nice 720p HiDef display, other than that, I think the Galaxy SII is a better device.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SooooneR:
Wow...

Pretty ungrateful sounding to say the least! Feel free to download SystemApp Remover and uninstall anything you like on the Rom. Calling out Calk like you're the President requesting him to fill you're request was pretty disrespectful!

Thanks for all the work you do here Calk! I hope you don't let a few jerks make you think your work isn't appreciated.

Does Chris' kernel have some other sort of battery saving technique built in?

Not sure about the other recovery, but I would use another Chris repack with CWM. Im just wondering if the nandroids I made with the rogue recovery will work since it is cwm based...

This ROM rocks

This is the only most stable and the fastest ROM I have installed so far in my E4GT. Calkulin you are the man!! Thanks.

Like LMFAO in the chorus of his song Party Rock: Every day I am Calkulin!!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] buggerritt:
I have had my setup just like yours and also removing a bunch of other apps as well but wasn't getting the kind of battery life you have shown. I checked on what else could be causing my drain and removed my Launcher Pro FB widget and now I have had my phone sitting for over 2 hours and it's still at 99%. Before, it was draining 3%-5%/hour. It finally sleeps. I never really looked at or used that widget anyway. I just thought it looked cool. LOL

Good morning folk.

New SGSII4GT user, longtime member, coming from the Evo4G forums.

For my first flash on this phone going to go with what seems to be the go-to-ROM here, by our well known premium dev. (Thanks Calk!)

If I understand it, I need to :

Nandroid

Thorough wipe

Flash modem?

Flash ROM

The process is similar, obviously, to the evo, but I guess I'm a little unclear about the modem thing...

And words of advice? Warning?

Thanks in advance. (and if tapa would let me, of course there would be button hitting...)

Sent from my calculator watch.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] buggerritt:
This is the general consensus. I would also make a titanium backup of all your apps. If the flash doesn't go as well as hoped (experiencing things not working properly, FC's. etc), I suggest to Odin the Stock Rooted EL26/Odin this kernel with Rogue Recovery/flash the ROM. That way, there is no room for any screwy stuff. I have done the FormatAll zip and then flashed the ROM. Sometimes, it works great. Sometimes, I was left with problems. I notice, at times, others have problems with that process, as well. I never had a problem after doing it the way I mentioned. After flashing, reinstall your user apps from the market and then you can restore data to them with titanium.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zorachus:
Just installed the base/stripped down 2.7, which kernel does that install with ? A Rogue ?

Should I flash Rogue_ET-StockEL1.1.3 ?
